Composer looking for work...

[Newman918]

Hey everyone, some of you may have seen me post on a few other RM boards as N3wman918 because I'm trying to spread the word as much as possible but hopefully not to the point of annoyance. I've been writing music for 4-5 years now and I'd like to offer my services to anyone with a serious project underway. You can email or PM me if you like what you hear and we can go from there. Note: Most of these DEMOS aren't finished or are meant to be looped.

https://www.mydocsonline.com/pub/n3wman ... orrupt.mp3 - Generic theme for a bad guy I suppose.

https://www.mydocsonline.com/pub/n3wman918/2Town.mp3 - Short little melody that I never got around to finishing.

https://www.mydocsonline.com/pub/n3wman ... 20Area.mp3 - Here's another quick little track I wrote that I would assume goes to a dungeon?

The Final Area was kinda suitable for one of my game's vital areas where a group of teenagers have to go to a gigantic facility where all the "souls" of the gamers were kept as their bodies were mutated into game-based enemies and stuff.

nice sound to corrupt.

Your melodies are basic and uninteresting. I would comment on all of them specifically but not all of them even work. Try adding a full, rich brass sound to the Town theme and try to make a stronger counter melody. It started off good, sort of like an Illusion of Gaia theme, but then got timid and boring.

 

[Newman918]

Hmm...they should all work. I'll check and see what might be the problem

It said file not found or something. Its a shame, because you seem really talented and I dont want to base an opinion off of two tracks. =(

 

[Newman918]

They SHOULD all work...I tried loading them up on different computers and they loaded up fine...Did you try maybe saving them to see if that would work? I apologize for this Moogle.

Its cool, man. Ill try that and see if it works. I hope im not being a nusicance!

 

[Newman918]

Not at all. I'd like to hear your opinions on the rest of them. The town track and a few others were meant to sound "cheesy" and minimal to fit the 2d rpgs from the 90's

Ok, it works! :3

Finale-Ok, sounds good at the begining. When the distortion guitar starts, it has a cool counter balance to make a nice groove. The vocal additions are excellent. I think when they all come together, however, it gets to be a tad basic. It ended very abruptly, which is a shame because I would love to have heard more of it!

Road Block-This would fit a danger/dungeon scene perfectly. In the middle the harmonics are a tad wierd, but it comes back together quite fluently. A nice, simple little tune.

No More-I like it, but the Violin soundfont is bad. It sounds like you are using GPO, and if so this would sound better as a String ensemble soundfount. Reminds me of "The Sandy Beaches of Gambo" from Grandia. Well done!

The corrupt- Nice use of harpsichord/fluency to pizzicato strings. Sounds like Final Fantasy IX. The middle sounded a bit too overdone imo, with all the vibrato in the strings.

Town- seems more like a "waking up" sort of theme or a small bumpkin town. Finish it and ill give you a better synopsis :3

Together- Very secret of evermore-ish. I dont like the mallet percussion backrounding it, it takes away from the piece's beauty. Some of the backround notes and rhythms are really gross sounding.

The next three wont work still.

Final Area- This could be used as a decisive dungeon theme, maybe like the hurry theme from the opera house in FF6. The harpsichord takes away from most of it, and I think you could bring out the strings more. Very Kingdom Hearts-ish.

I hope that helps. Overall you are a pretty good composer and some of your tracks really wow'ed me. Try to stay on this path and youll be an amazing composer in the time to come!

 

[Newman918]

Yes I have to agree with the violin in No More as well! That's pretty embarrassing for Mr. Garritan if you can here the low quality and know it's from his library haha (Don't worry I still love ya Gary!). The 2 piano solos SHOULD work now and I'll try and fix the other one. Thanks for the response Moogle.

If you are looking for work to be hired this goes in another section. If you want crits it goes here. Which is it that you want, or I assume this goes in recruitment. I'll give you 24hrs before I move it.

 

[Newman918]

I thought this was for recruitment...i'm sorry go ahead and move it.
