Tracks by TuomoH

Post by TuomoH »

In this thread, you will find all my pre-GRIF tracks as well as links to my GRIF releases.

Since I’ve noticed that I go through different phases in my trackmaking, I’ve split the tracks accordingly. The phases are usually not a conscious thing, I mostly notice the change of phase only afterwards. Naturally the things I've learned in the past follow to the new phases but there's still something fundamental that changes between the phases in my eyes.

The big zips include the individual tracks, trackpacks have been posted separately.

Phase 1: The Beginning (2002-2003)
Phase 2: Experimentalism (2003-2004)
Phase 3: Naturalism (2004-2005)
Phase 4: Minimalism (2005-2007)
Phase 5: The Rebellion (2007-2009)

Phase 6 and beyond (The GRIF Years)
- Phase 6: The Meta Phase (2010-2011)
- Phase 7: The Transitional Phase (2011-2012)
- Phase 8: The Art Phase (2012-2013)
- Phase 9: Chaotism (2013-2014)
- Phase 10: The Lost Years (2014-2016)
- Phase 11: The Roots Phase (2016-2020)
- Phase 12: TEOism (2020-2021)
- Phase 13: Traditionalism (2021-2022)

Phase 1: The Beginning (2002-2003)

Post by TuomoH »

Phase 5: The Rebellion (2007-2009)

With these tracks I really let go of all the expectations of other people. However, in retrospect, I also feel that I was somewhat lost with my trackmaking.

Phase 6 and beyond - The GRIF Years

Post by TuomoH »

This post includes links to all the tracks I've released here at GRIF.

Phase 6: The Meta Phase (2010-2011)
During this phase I tried to dig to the core of trackmaking, to find the so-called meta level of GR tracks.

142-143 - Word [mic] - 10.04.2010
144 - Itulu [ral] - 27.10.2010
145-151 - BmxSim [tpk] - 27.11.2010 (includes 2 bikes + soundset; Bmx Simulator) ... Pack of Year , 3rd in ToM :tom: :tom:
152-156 - GR1.10 [tpk] - 18.02.2011 (GR1.10 default tracks, you should have these already) ... 3rd in PoY :tom:
157-162 - exp:abs [tpk] - 09.04.2011
163 - 50ridge [mic] - 07.05.2011
164 - 50pond [mic] - 07.05.2011
165 - Abandon2011 [cir] - 03.09.2011 (AbandonRing remake)

Phase 7: The Transitional Phase (2011-2012)
During this short period I really shook up my old trackmaking habits and moved towards the messy, more abstract style that was apparent in my tracks for several years to come.

166-170 - expinmin5 [tpk] - 14.12.2011
171 - Sandillage [ral] - 15.12.2011
172 - Abcity [stc] - 21.12.2011
173 - Jumpland [stu] - 28.12.2011 ... 3rd in ToM :tom:
174 - GarageJump [stu] - 28.02.2012 ... 3rd in ToM :tom:
175 - Nymuto [oth] - 20.03.2012
176-177 - Mode [ovl] [oth] - 11.05.2012

Phase 8: The Art Phase (2012-2013)
What these tracks have in common is the use of GR as a platform for artistic creations while still having drivable tracks.

178 - Child's Play [roa] [oth] - 10.07.2012
179 - Fibonacci [mic] - 12.07.2012
180-183 - op:ART [tpk] - 23.07.2012
184 - Dogville [oth] - 30.08.2012
185 - Exel [ral] - 12.01.2013
186 - This Is Not A Track [oth] - 19.01.2013
187 - Pixel [ral] - 09.02.2013
188 - Silhouette City [stc] - 09.02.2013 ... Winner of ToM, 3rd in ToY :tom: :tom:
189 - Deserter [cir] - 03.03.2013

Phase 9: Chaotism (2013-2014)
During this phase I experimented with lmap/hmap techniques that seem chaotic to some eyes.

190 - Country Ride [roa] - 03.03.2013
191-200 - Mixed Bizness 3 [tpk] - 28.04.2013
201 - 2254 [oth] - 17.07.2013
202 - Deter St [stc] - 17.07.2013
203 - Abcrash [oth] - 30.07.2013
204 - Scrapes [ral] - 17.07.2014
205 - Abelton [stc] [oth] - 17.07.2014
206 - Riverhill [stu] - 17.07.2014
207 - Draw Bridge [stu] - 17.07.2014 ... 2nd in ToM :tom:
208 - Teinkyvsa [ral] - 30.07.2014 (a 5-minute track)
209 - Pigeon [stc] [oth] - 06.08.2014
210 - Kaotik [oth] - 06.08.2014
211 - Terrast [ral] - 06.08.2014
212-213 - Sundae+Daesun [stu] - 06.08.2014
214 - Pargas [stc] - 06.08.2014 (my home town)

Phase 10: The Lost Years (2014-2016)
What these tracks have in common is that they really don't have much in common. I had run into a corner with my style and tried several approaches to find a new spark. Despite winning several ToM awards, I was lost with my vision.

215-218 - EXPinmin6 [tpk] - 13.08.2014 ... 3rd in PoY :tom:
219 - MountainSide [roa] - 25.08.2014
220 - Stephill [cir] - 03.09.2014 ... 3rd in ToM :tom:
221 - Liquo Rico [oth] - 21.10.2014
222 - Nordest [roa] [ovl] - 24.12.2014
223 - Johnny's Track [oth] - 27.12.2014 ... Track of Year, 2nd in ToM :tom: :tom:
224 - Righto [stu] - 29.12.2014 ... Track of Year, 2nd in ToM :tom: :tom:
225 - Feynman [roa] - 27.04.2015 ... 3rd in ToM :tom:
226 - Attanym [oth] - 31.05.2015
227 - Alnation [oth] - 20.06.2015
228 - Mayhem [oth] - 07.07.2016

Phase 11: The Roots Phase (2016-2020)
After all these years I came back to the roots and started making clean, GeneRally-esque tracks.

229 - Wa Sirwi [stc] - 12.07.2016
230 - Tropik [roa] - 14.07.2016
231 - Arconym [roa] - 18.07.2016
232 - Teitou [stc] - 20.07.2016
233 - Greenville [stc] - 13.02.2018
234 - Farmington [ral] - 22.02.2018
235 - Pennington [stc] - 01.03.2018
236 - Futura [stc] [oth] - 14.03.2018
237 - Eastburn [cir] - 14.04.2018
238 - Zen [mic] - 28.04.2020
239 - Hill City [stc] - 05.05.2020

Phase 12: TEOism (2020-2021)
Waves of nostalgia led me to the very basics of trackmaking. TEO stands for Track Editor Only, and hence, every single track from this phase has been made 100% in TE.

240 - TEOring [cir] - 08.05.2020
241-246 - expinmin7 [tpk] - 12.05.2020
247 - Oreogo Beach [stc] - 04.06.2020
248 - Lakeview Drive [roa] - 05.06.2020
249 - Tutoring [cir] - 16.06.2020
250 - Toofifty [oth] - 28.07.2020
251 - Lyme Park [ral] - 12.08.2020
252 - Jumpville [stu] - 12.08.2020
253-258 - Evotown [tpk] [evo] - 25.10.2020
259-263 - V'Lage [tpk] [evo] - 19.12.2020
264 - Paahde [cir] - 19.02.2021 (track updated 25.03.2021)
265 - Vihervaara [stc] - 20.02.2021
266 - Lonkero [roa] - 20.04.2021
267 - Mutakatu [ral] - 20.04.2021
268 - Rahnasto [stc] - 22.04.2021

Phase 13: Traditionalism (2021-2022)
After all those TE tracks I was dying to use external editors again. However, I kept making tracks that were rooted in the traditional way of looking at GeneRally. One might say that with this phase I've completed a full circle.

269-278 - Mixed Bizness 4 [tpk] - 28.04.2021
279 - Westbush [cir] - 03.05.2021
280-281 - Triad Hill [ral] [ovl] - 04.05.2021
282 - HardPort [stu] - 05.05.2021
283 - Rijr [cir] - 08.05.2021
284 - Rantsu [roa] - 09.05.2021
285 - Buckie [cir] - 14.01.2022
286 - Natura Park [cir] - 30.01.2022
287 - Forester [ral] - 23.12.2022

Forester remains my last GeneRally 1 release!
I've continued trackmaking for GeneRally 2. You can find my GR2 creator profile at Steam Workshop.
