For my submission, I chose to follow the text theme. I interpreted the theme as "You're inside MY world", so I wanted to create a sort of unique boss theme. My conceptual boss is called Kid Punk, who I characterize as a sort of snarky, privileged type who always has to get his way. It's his world, and you're just living in it (hope that makes sense for the theme!) Most of the piece is in 5/4 to provide an uneasy rhythm, until switching to 4/4 for the final part for a tonal shift. As the piece progresses, I have distinct sections that represent battle phases, I kind of imagined the progression like the player is pushing Kid Punk harder and harder, where he pretends to not care until he starts to get really frustrated and gets serious. I made the final part sound like his nobility is starting to crack under pressure, having a tantrum. In terms of instrumentation, I wanted to reflect the descent into anger by going deeper and deeper down the generations of consoles, going from some SNES samples and modern instruments/synths, to DS samples, to N64 samples, to GBA samples, and finally to 8-Bit. I hope you enjoy it!
