Pixelbit Dreams — Original Bitpop / Chiptune
Pixelbit Dreams is one of my personal favourite compositions, drawing on the melodic side of Anamanaguchi and the more classic chiptune influences of Chipzel.
I composed, arranged and produced the track myself in FL Studio Mobile, writing the melodies, harmonies and instrumental parts and programming the rhythms. The production uses virtual instruments alongside licensed drum and clap one-shot samples. No generative AI was used to compose or produce the music.
Harmonic Bitcrafter — Original Chiptune / Game Soundtrack
Harmonic Bitcrafter is a fast-paced, layered chiptune composition created for colourful sandbox adventures, crafting sequences and energetic pixel-game environments.
Running at 168 BPM, the track combines multiple original melodic parts, rhythmic synth patterns, bass elements and contrasting electronic textures. Its arrangement develops through changing instrumental layers, transitions and automated effects rather than relying on a single repeating loop.
The track was composed, arranged and produced by Alex East in FL Studio Mobile. The melodies, harmonies and instrumental patterns were written and programmed by the artist. Licensed percussion and effect samples were used as supporting production elements.
No generative AI was used to compose or produce the music.
Epic Souls – Dark Souls-Inspired Orchestral Soundtrack
Epic Souls was originally composed for Schwarzes Blut, a Souls-inspired fan project. The piece follows a cinematic dramatic arc: beginning with a restrained and ominous atmosphere, gradually expanding into a more powerful central passage before returning to a darker, reflective conclusion.
Created for tragic fantasy worlds, imposing encounters and emotionally charged boss battles, the composition combines classical orchestral writing with the oppressive atmosphere of dark fantasy.
The entire piece was composed, arranged and produced by Alex East in FL Studio Mobile using virtual instruments. No prerecorded musical loops or audio samples were used, and no generative AI was involved in the composition or production.
❄️ Snowpark — Original Classical Winter Game Soundtrack
Snowpark is an original classical and cinematic composition created for Seelenband, a dark-fantasy short story originally published by AE-TV.
The story follows the soul-wanderer Krishan and his loyal dog Ronja through a frozen forest. What begins as a quiet journey towards a familiar woodland cabin gradually develops into an encounter with a dark supernatural force — and ultimately into a story about loyalty, sacrifice and an extraordinary bond between two souls.
The music reflects this wintry fantasy setting and was written as an atmospheric companion to the story.
The entire composition was arranged and produced by Alex East in FL Studio Mobile using virtual instruments. No prerecorded loops or audio samples were used.
🌃 80Darkz — Original 80s-Inspired Synthwave
80Darkz is an atmospheric instrumental track with dark 1980s synth vibes and influences from new retrowave.
Built around a steady, hypnotic progression, the track is designed to establish and maintain a consistent retro atmosphere. Its deliberately restrained development makes it particularly suitable as background music or for future loop-based use in games and narrative projects. Arranged and produced by Alex East in FL

German-language Horror Audio Drama – “Lizzy und Marek”
This German-language Halloween audio drama is included in my music portfolio as an example of how my music works within a complete narrative production.
The story follows Lizzy and Marek on a trip into the Austrian woods that turns into a supernatural horror story involving abandonment, death, revenge and a mysterious entity made of black smoke.
The production combines an original classical and piano-led soundtrack, atmospheric horror scoring, custom-made creepy sounds and narrative sound design. It also features “Lizzy in der Grube”, a dark reinterpretation of the German children’s song Häschen in der Grube, created with the unsettling nursery-rhyme feeling used in horror productions such as the Dead Space “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” trailer.
The soundtrack and voice performances were created entirely within our own project, along with the vast majority of the sound design. A small number of additional free-to-use sound effects were used where needed.
Even if you don’t speak German, the piece can be listened to as a showcase of soundtrack composition, atmosphere, tension, horror sound design and the interaction between music, dialogue and silence.
