Following my showoffs on C3, I decided to make a more permanent thread, since I still compose frequently.
Here are the ones from C3 in case you missed out:
As some of you may know, I compose music, ranging from chiptunes to orchestral. (Well, sort of.)
For those of you who don't know, I compose music, ranging from chiptunes to orchestral.
Here's some stuff I've composed till date. I'm a (very) lazy composer, so don't be surprised if you see or hear a lot of work to be WIP.
Factorized
One of my first ever compositions, I made this out of, mostly, boredom while I was in high school. I tried to go for a classic Megaman feel, what with all the "wavey" squares and rhythm.
New Beginnings (You might need to crank up the volume a tiny bit, apologies.)
I composed this keeping in mind the phrase "Starting something new". It took me quite a few days to get the chords right so they didn't interfere with each other, and I'm quite proud of the result. (I intended to use this song in an RPG I was making, which started in the morning. Hence the birds chirping and all.)
Goldwood Forest
I wanted this tune to feel like, well, "home". Of course, the guitar sounds anything but natural, but I had to use artificial ones in FL Studio, not a real recording. (Believe me, I would have given anything for a real recording of this.) Either way, I'm very fond of how this one turned out, since a few people I showed indeed did say it sounded like "home".
Rosemary Rag (WIP)
No, I'm not a Scott Joplin fan. Why do you ask? I've been incredibly fond of ragtime music for a long time now, although composing it seemed to be one of the hardest things to do. I managed to come up with this and I really like the melody. (And yes, I added a tiny bit of white noise and a radio filter over the song, just to make it sound like an old recording.)
Forest of Hope
Close your eyes and imagine this: A forest, with a canopy so dense that it blocks nearly all sunlight, making the insides of the forest VERY dark. The only way to navigate this forest is with the help of magic lamps and fireflies scattered across the mazelike paths that go through it. This is what I kept in mind while making this, and its one of my latest compositions. VERY proud of this one, since I played it on my real keyboard (the chord part, atleast) before recreating it on the computer.
Dem Blocks
I... I have no idea what this is, really. The project notes in FL Studio say "tetris theme xd" and it looks like the project was started at 3:38 AM in the morning. So... uh... there you go?
So that's about it for now, Of course, I'm not the best composer there is, and I've a lot to learn, but I'm pretty proud of what I've done so far.
I'll keep this thread updated as much as I can.
