Depth Charge
Soundtrack for the Ümlaüt Design demo "Under": https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=95485 Been a while since I did music, really; I wanted to do something that was very techy and not very melodic - obviously I failed at both of those things.

Not In It
Soundtrack for R>V>LV>R (https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=91659) I've been listening to a lot of https://soundcloud.com/skelermusic okay?

!a(drill)
Soundtrack for the Function 2021 winner demo "cöncept": https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=89840 - originally a 12ch tracked XM. So this was a tough one to work on; I really wanted something era-appropriate for a DOS demo, and just finding what the right tone was, what the right sound was, and then what the right chord progressions were was so hard that it was probably the only time that the visuals caught up to the unfinished music. In the end though, I'm 99% happy with it and it was nice to wiggle the tracking muscles a bit.

A Thousand Machines
Another one of those tracks that sat in the dark for a few years and then found its way into a demo somehow: https://demozoo.org/productions/284062/ Download: http://gargaj.umlaut.hu/music/Gargaj_-_A_Thousand_Machines.flac

Tether
Soundtrack for "escalation" https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=86934 Probably some of the best sound design I've done so far. (Big up to Access To Arasaka.) Download: http://gargaj.umlaut.hu/music/Gargaj_-_Tether.flac

Massive Aggressive (feat. MC Fantom)
Soundtrack for the Ümlaüt Design demo "PILEDRIVER", winner of the Function 2019 demo compo: https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=82882 - featuring MC Fantom (https://soundcloud.com/subculture-revolution) on the mic. Yeah. If this is what you wanted, this is what you got. Nominated for the Best Soundtrack award in the 2020 Meteoriks for some Godforsaken reason. Special thanks to https://soundcloud.com/lowroller, https://soundcloud.com/sinister-souls and https://soundcloud.com/wastedmind for the inspiration, and https://soundcloud.com/sonic-dissent for the kicks. Download: http://gargaj.umlaut.hu/music/Gargaj_-_Massive_Aggressive.flac LYRICS: Bassline Superior, Infrasonic Warrior Transient Impulses Enhancing Your Delirium This Sound Is Infernal But At No Point Inferior Kick Snare And Amen Breaks Cutting Through The Barrier New School Direction Right In The Midsection Screen Space Reflection All Polished To Perfection High Dynamic Range Causing A Panic Reaction Prepare For Your Untimely Dissection By The Piledriver

Imprint
Soundtrack for the 360 video animation "In The Mind" by Veronika Harangozó: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PllxQGa9S9E I've been approached for this through a mutual friend; the brief was to score an animation with electronic music that accompanies schizophrenia and hallucinations - after some discussion I decided to go to a more demoish beat-driven rather than a strictly cinematic approach.

Everything Repeats
Soundtrack for the 2019 Function demoparty invitation: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=81109 This is a few years old actually, but hasn't really been utilized until now; it was essentially my attempt to take a stab at the "modern" progbreaks sound (basically https://soundcloud.com/retroid and his labels)
-
18
Unresolution
Soundtrack for "Reboot": http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=79182 This was one of those rare situations where I had a visual design for a demo well before I knew how I wanted it do sound like - I went through 2-3 different approaches (initial tries were somewhere around the Gridlock territory) before I settled on this.

The Color Outside The Lines
Soundtrack for the Ümlaüt Design demo "Along For The Ride" (http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=78053) What can I say, I love https://soundcloud.com/existstrategy

Re:Strain
Soundtrack for http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=74694 Distorted and glitchy, because fuck everything really. Also, I seem to be running out of minutes.

15
Margin of Error
Soundtrack for the F!M&ÜD cooperation of the same name (http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=68775); second place at the Demobit 2017 demo compo. I really wanted to do a deep/dark breaks track for a long time with a nice long breakdown, so I suggested to Pasy to work on something together and I'm quite happy with the end result. Big up https://soundcloud.com/futurefunksquad and https://soundcloud.com/simon_shackleton Download at http://gargaj.umlaut.hu/music/Gargaj__Margin_of_Error.ogg

Blackout in Effect
Making breakbeat harder, making hardstyle smarter; winner of the Demobit 2017 music competition. Essentially this is Commence/Collapse 2 - similar motivations, similar elemental force.

Operation: Impact
A little style experiment that ended up as a demo: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=65605 Pretty sure I was the first to do this? I dunno. Still looking for a good genre name. Download from http://gargaj.umlaut.hu/music/Gargaj__Operation_Impact.ogg

Hollow Spaces
Just another track I made I wish I haven't. Eventually wound up in a demo: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=64163

"Signal Lost" - end credits theme
End credits motif of Signal Lost, a short film by Crowngear and Ümlaüt Design. Download the demo from www.umlaut.hu or comment at http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=60792 (Yes, it did end up sounding like Terminator 2. Not sure why.)

Acid Machine
Soundtrack for the Ümlaüt Design demo "Machine" - http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=59148 I made this track around 2007 when I was just fiddling around with sample packs and trying to piece together something that I felt was inspired by Tokyoplastic's / Drew Cope's "Drum Machine" animation. Then that sorta didn't happen and the project went on the backburner for years. The demo itself ended up being terrible.

Walking on Glass
Track from around 2009, never really released anywhere, except maybe the Bitjam Podcast #122: http://www.bitfellas.org/page.php?201 I guess I tried to be DJ Infiniti (http://soundcloud.com/user1942203/) on this one and failed miserably. Not really a good track productionwise :(

I Wish It Would Just Go Away
Originally created in early 2010. Never meant to be heard by the public, but found it's way into a demo: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=57512 Download at http://gargaj.umlaut.hu/music/Gargaj__I_Wish_It_Would_Just_Go_Away.ogg

Tűzveszély introtape
Introtape made for the Christian pop/rock band Tűzveszély ( http://www.levita.hu/tv/ ) The track is in the key and tempo so that it segues into their song "Ez a legnagyobb csoda, hogy szerethetlek téged" ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U78TnXT6bW4 ) The video link features footage of the song actually being used as an intro.

Fractured Impulse Monolithic (SceneCON compo cut)
Entry for the SceneCON 2009 music compo, which it (bizarrely) won. Basically I just wanted to cram as much production into the tune as I could, hence the "all-over-the-place"-ness of it. Of course in hindsight the mixdown is pretty awful (save the subbass), plus the number of injokes is just sad, but hey, it was fun. Download at http://gargaj.umlaut.hu/music/gargaj_-_fractured_impulse_monolithic_%28scenecon_compo_cut%29.ogg (I do have a longer version but it's not as fun.)

Scapedifferent
Started in 2006, then partly released in 2008 (https://www.scene.org/file.php?file=/parties/2008/solskogen08/music/newschool/012__gargaj_-_scapedifferent_%28solskogen_2008_compo_cut%29.ogg&fileinfo), then collecting dust because the mixdown is terrible anyway.

Subtle Hint of Failure
Winner of the Horde 2007 music compo One of my first tracks in a DAW. Download at http://gargaj.umlaut.hu/music/Gargaj__Subtle_Hint_of_Failure.ogg

Zenith
Soundtrack for the Ümlaüt Design demo "Structure 2: Sequence" - http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=19420 Download at http://gargaj.umlaut.hu/music/Gargaj__Zenith.ogg The first leitmotif for this tune was written at 1AM when I woke up with the arpeggio in my head. I quickly jotted it down in Milkytracker and went back to sleep to work on it the next day. This was the first song I actually mastered with more than just a limiter.

Sunrise
Soundtrack for "Structure" by Ümlaüt Design. Download at http://gargaj.umlaut.hu/music/Gargaj__Sunrise.ogg As trivial as it sounds, this might very well be one of the best tracks I've ever written, and I love it to this day.

(Forgive me) When It's Over
Originally made in 2004.08.27., in about 90 minutes. I guess about 10 people heard it since. Don't know what to say. For a time, I couldn't listen to this. (Sorry about the quality, I have the original project-file but the render sounded... different.)

MK.MID
My first ever music competition entry that made it through pre-selection. Whoo! Placed 6th out of 10 at FLaG2002. I don't know where the melody comes from, it's from a MIDI file I found somewhere, and I have no idea who the original author is. Hope they don't mind. Download at http://gargaj.umlaut.hu/music/Gargaj__MK_MID.mp3
