Note: This doesn’t reflect the final release because I last updated it 2025-01-03. Shortly thereafter, I underwent a psychological breakdown (likely from the stress of having written over an hour of music in a month) and quit the project. For that and other reasons, it probably never will. You can download or stream this version of the soundtrack here; see Compositions 2023-2024 and Mūsica ex tempore malōrum for commentary on my songs.
