PICO-8 Music Theory Tutorial Released


I've released the first eight lessons of my new music theory tutorial. It's designed for people who want to make their own music for PICO-8 games, but feel they don't have the skill or talent to do so. 

The tutorial provides an introduction to the basics of pitch, melody, harmony, rhythm and composition within the context of PICO-8. It explores music in a decidedly mathy way through a series of interactive demos that use spatial relations to connect sound to vision.

Only the parts of music theory that are relevant to PICO-8 are covered. No prior knowledge of music is assumed. There's no reading sheet music or needing to play an instrument.

More lessons will be coming in October.
