Anyone Want Music?

Hmm, the only thing that irks me is on It's a Big World when the reed instruments(oboe?) do a slide down.  Other than that, really good stuff!

Hah, that would be fun.  Sliding on oboe reeds is amazing.Unfortunately it can only go about an octave (when just playing the reed itself anyway... I've never really tried it with the instrument... hm.....) But sliding in music generally uses the keys... which is not fun. :(

I really like your music.  Especially It's a Big World. :)  Hahaha, your composing abilities surpass me by like, billions... lol. ^^

Is that Horn in F in the Boss theme?  Or a mixture of different instruments through the beginning?

At Zeldrak- No not at all! Keep 'em coming, but Ima try to keep them in some sort of order. (Easy then Hard) d(^^d)

At A Forgotten Legend- Yeah, sliding is cool, but I play trumpet so pressing keys doesn't help me. =D
In the beggining, there is a Horn, then a trumpet comes in. Nice Ears!
 
Here's something else. This time, a battle theme. Something with trumpet would be nice, in the same theme as the last one, but more on the "danger" factor. Following the same rhythm as the previous one, sounding more epic if possible.

Think Shadow of the Colossus

Celes_cole- Yeah, anything I make can be resaved as a midi. Or originally saved as a midi. Or rewritten as a midi! =D
 
Oh, alrighty then ^_^. Do you think you could do me one?

Setting: Set in the world of FFIV. The girl's name is Perla.
Time Period: 1495 probably.
Mood: Kind of peaceful... like that one theme off of Radical Dreamers/Chrono Cross... which one was it... Girl who stole the stars! http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/ni ... g_girl.mid
Yeah kind of like that.


BTW, you're really good. You're lucky to have a music talent. I wish I did XD.
 
Um, hello. If you're able to do more then one song per person, I have a big request.

Setting is a Fantasy world.(Like Lord of the Rings, or Legend of Zelda.)

Time period is, well. Havent decided on that for my game.

First song is for my levels for when you're in a house.
What I'd want for it: A calm peacful, but sort of happy theme.(Almost like an indoors song from legend of Zelda)

Second song is for my title screen
What I'd want for it: A mixture of epic orchestra  and peacful orchestra.

Third song is for my first village: Sesla.
What I'd want for it: A happy theme that all through out the song.(I would like alot of violin work, if you can.)

Fourth song is for my cave levels.
What I'd want for it: A really mellow sounding song.(Almost like the underground cave music from Legend of Zelda)

Fith song is for my level: The Holy Forest.
What I'd want for it: A really calm soothing song(As you may've guessed)with some piano in it if you're able too.

Sixth song is for my level: The Dark World.
What I'd want for it: A dark, evil, creepy sounding orchesteral piece.

Seventh song is for my scenes when everyone's in goo spirited mood.
What I'd want for it: A happy, joyful orchestral piece.

Eighth song is for my scenes when something sad happened.(Ex: Someone died)
What I'd want for it: A really sad sounding, but peacful song. And again, with some piano if you're able to with your program.

Nineth song is for the battle sequences in my game.
What I'd want for it: An extremely epic, action packed orchesteral piece.

Songs ten through twelve are for boss battles in my game.
What I'd want for it: Same as above, except number twelve has to be epic and creepy sounding.

And last of all, number thirteen will be my final boss song.
What I'd want for it: A mxture of epic, creepy, and some piano playing, and a whole lot of the big ringing bell sound.

And all of these songs have to loop prfectly.


Thankyou if you could do this. :smile: And, if you decide to do it, take your time. Do the songs in the longest amount of time it'll take you.
I'm not trying to rush you. :wink:
 
Perhaps I'm nitpicking, but the playback sounds a bit tinny. It could be the upload website, or perhaps the recording settings need a little tweaking.

Very good stuff, though.

Yeah I dunno why, but It's either the samples(which I'm sure it's not) or Finale itself.
I honestly don't know how to fix it. x.x

No, it sounds like that in Finale as well... Finale just adds a reverb to everything for no reason, and I can't figure out how to change it.
 
Well, the first one was really great! It actually made me think " I'm nothing compared to this guy!". It was truly awesome! But then the Boss Theme was a bittle disappointing... The loudest part of the main back sound was kind of annoying to my ears... I found the second one good in some parts but average in others... I loved the drums though! Sorry, maybe I'm not being very specific, but I don't have much time. Despite not enjoying some things in your themes, I still think you are a hell of a composer, and you blend in the sounds very well. Cheers
 
Nice pieces you have there! :) Oh and could you make me Some Exploring music for my Celtic Based Game Domain? I you would I would be very greatful :)
 
Your themes are impressive - I tip my (nonpresent) hat before your skill. I, myself, am quite creative when it comes to music. At random, I hum spontaneoud themes that can come out quite epic... The downside of this is that I can't really compose what I hummed and this sucks.

So you do requests I see... Well, there are three themes I need for my RPG-in-progress.

Theme 1
Setting: Random Battle Theme
Time-Period: Medieval Fantasy
Mood: Intense, with a calm part near the end, that, as the song gets closer to the loop, gains intensity

Theme 2
Setting: Small Village
Time-Period: Same as above
Mood: A calm theme (in my imagination, I hear flute, bass and strings)

Theme 3
Setting: Slow, epic war-like Theme (used when there's a talk about war)
Time-Period: Same as above (and same as above again)
Mood: Starting out somewhat quiet, but gaining in volume somewhere in between the middle and short before the loop

Looking forward to request fulfillment...
