Message from the artist
There are 14 tracks in total, 11 of them are normal songs and 3 of them are alternative versions of the bossfights (featuring voicelines).
Theme
How does it fit the theme?
I interpreted "inside my world" as something among the lines of greed and selfishness. These two words are basically the entire motive behind June's actions. It also shows in the little voicelines by her in the songs.

yo pix and frozzy! rated your ost the first day but just realized i never commented 😭.
this ost is p e a k. easily my favorite entry of entire ost jam by far. the music is funky, quirky, fun, and the style is exactly the type of music i’m into. from the instrumentation, sfx, and voice lines (i fricken love the voice lines), this ost is just bursting with character. my favorite track is clutch hitter, the lead goes crazy.
generally, i don’t listen to the music of jam submissions after i rate them, but your ost is literally in my music rotation rn 🔥 did an 8 mile run the other day to your ost, it goes so hard.
your game idea is just so cool too, and i saw below you’re actually turning into an actual game 💪 let me know where i can follow BOSSBEAT’s development, i will be on the lookout o7
yall are insane, but it’s awesome. you deserve one of those top spots imo
hi gang !! thanks for the comment :)
I'll be posting sneak peaks of BOSSBEAT on my youtube channel, and i'm aiming to release the first one somewhere in mid august. My channel is linked in my discord profile, you can go and check it out there (cuz im not sure if i can send links like this here)!!
Oh, and i'll be rating ur entry in a minute, like I promised!!!
sick !! just found your channel!!
this OST is incredibly funky and super fun to listen to! as someone who has submitted the same number as tracks as you, i'm impressed with how much you've done in such a short time. your creativity is truly top notch with this submission. you've put so much thought into this - great job!
if i can be SUUUUPER nitpicky (i struggled to tackle the same thing in my submission), repetition is truly my only thing for you. its really easy to follow a repetitive bassline since game OSTs are meant to be one cohesive unit, but as the soundtrack progresses, some tracks feel somewhat similar. i'm absolutely OBSESSED the funk feel, though!
overall, though, your tracks are truly amazing and very memorable. i love the funk feel, and i would LOVE to see this in a game!! i like your use of sound effects to add personality to tracks is great. i definitely got kind of a splatoon feel if that was any sort of inspo! keep it up, and please LMK if you do decide to implement this into a game!
thank you very much for your kind words and criticism! really glad you liked it!! Splatoon has been in the back of my mind since like the beginning of this year so maybe thats why you got that feeling :)
speaking of implementing this into a game... y'all could use a little sneak peak :P
OOOH!!! looking Awesome, thanks for sharing!!!!!!
Absolute amazing!! Lot of work there, Im really impressed with your work, really love the soundtrack and the idea of the game in general, there is such a lot of personality. My respect for you and your team, this is amazing job!
The amount of effort that went into this is unreal! Some real top notch work here. Your compositional style is really unique and these tracks were bangin'. Extremely creative on all fronts, and I adore the work that got put in to make this feel like a real game. The art is super rad as well!
Big Bad City - Holy Funk! Really groovy, big sounding and fun! Real nice break chops in there! For sure a bop!
Select Your Target! - Nice use of funk and an 8-bit melody into a more fun synth funk and back again really bouncy!
REMINDER - For sure a good starting tutorial track, really good use of percussive elements used in this track. that final solo lead line was a really nice touch!
CLUTCH HITTER - Nice and action-packed with some punch to it, gives me some old Sega vibes but sounds modernized!
JUNKYARD - Another fun track, like the transition to a more jungle rhythm in the latter half of the piece, don't have a lot to say but really enjoyed this one!
MONEY WALKS - Like the intensity the track progresses into again sounding very SEGA-like!
CONGRATS! YOU SUCK. + Results - Personally I think the Game Over Result should be less intense than the Awful score but that's my thoughts besides that, the energy from Awful all the way to perfect is balanced and sound in place!
Amazing work!
bro is actually going insane 🔥🔥🔥
While this kinda genre isn't my personal cup of tea, I can still appreciate that you put a TON of work into this!
You very clearly know what you're doing, both with the music and the art, and the page makes this look like it's from an actual, real game.
Good work
Very nice! Quirky sense of composition and the production is great as well!
Such a unique style ! A great surprise! Honestly its sounds really clean for me ^^
Really funky soundtrack and great energy, the cohesion in the style blend every tracks and its really well done.
Sometimes it get a bit too repetitive and the mix is maybe a bit too dry.
Overall great job ^^
heyo ty for ur kind words!! could you please elaborate on the mix part, though? i'd love to know when and where my mix is dry :3 ty in advance
The quality of all of this is super impressive, its dripping with character with all the sound effects and voicelines scattered throughout, and you both blended your styles together incredibly well to create an incredibly strong submission!!
what?! This is crazy good work! I've listened to a whole lot of Jet Set, so I absolutely love this. And you have the premise to a whole game? Keep doing what you are doing!
As a matter of fact, yes. Right now we're discussing the full game concept and all that stuff, so if we get it right, we'll actually make a full game! Also thanks for all the support!
In few of the tracks mix is pretty rough (especially the leads most of the time are a bit too quiet) but I gotta say that I am impressed that you both made 11 (14 including the voicelines ones) tracks which sounds sick!
Enter the phatness! Stellar work
Love the style and energy in this soundtrack! The voice lines were a fun addition as well!
Are you guys crazy?
yeah
You definitely understood the assignment! This idea could be developed into an actual game and you could slide these soundtracks in as the OST! Each track has a hectic but intentional energy to them that keeps you running all the way to the end.
Your usage of samples and voice lines helped each of the tracks stand out on their own and give them even more character. My favorite track was "JUNKYARD" and the 4 "RESULTS" tracks were funny and executed well. I really liked this one, great job!
big fan of the voice lines
Great work! I love the bossbeat track in particular. It's got pretty good humor too, like some bros just jamming out.
Great submission! Very unique and creative.
That's awesome! Love this!
