HA HA GOT YOU. It's not LP as in "Let's Play", it's LP as in "Long-playing record". That's an album! And what's on an album? Music! Or in this case, something that sort of resembles it.
If you're one of the 2.5 people who have listened to any of my stuff on my utub channel, you'll know I'm extremely self-critical about my music. This has not changed. What has changed is that I'm now fed up with hoarding a bunch of unreleased tracks that just lie rotting away on my hard drive. Some people said they liked my stuff. Fine. Here it is:
If you like electronic music or video game soundtracks, then you might like some of the songs on this.

From the readme file:
If for some inane reason you desire to use my music for something other than your listening displeasure, please contact me for permission. Odds are I'll say yes, so long as you don't want to use either Beyond Familiar Stars or In the Orbit of God. The rest are cool to do with as you please. Just let me know you're using it and don't claim it as your own. I do bad things to people who dishonor my simple requests.
FUN FACTS:
-All tracks were composed with FL Studio. All point-and-click. I don't have a MIDI keyboard. (Well,
didn't. I got one for Christmas)
-Teaching yourself music theory is not fun.
-Mastering your music is not fun. You usually just make it worse in the end.
-People seem to give you a hard time for being self-critical about your work.
-The genre is called "Brain Damage" because having to listen to this over and over and over again in FL Studio probably knocked off about 8 IQ points.
-I named the music files in a way that resembles an illegal album download, so you can feel like you're getting something worth paying for.
-"Beyond Familiar Stars", "In the Orbit of God" and "Terran" were inspired by the Fury 3 series of PC games.
-"Gliese 411 B" and "Unknown" were inspired by Homeworld Cataclysm's soundtrack.
-"Marineris" and "Tharsis" were made for a terrible college game that we had to clobber together in about two and a half months. When my team went to present our game, there was an overlooked bug present that prevented the music from playing. My professor wouldn't let me hookup my laptop with the fixed version for the demonstration. What a loser.
-"Empyrean Caverns" was made for some ancient Starcraft 2 mod project that was eventually scrapped. It was kind of cool, though: it was a tactical-combat map that took place in caves throughout the dwarf planet Ceres. The caves looked pretty.
-"Callista", is of course, a remix of the track from Need for Speed, or more notably, Mass Effect 2's Club Afterlife. The original is far better.
