I found one of my top favorite video game songs on Youtube two days ago and I got such a massive nostalgia kick that I couldn't resist in making a remake of it!
@Senjan: I've always liked that strong percussion your songs have- it gives them this upbeat action feel that seems perfect for replaying games from my childhood :b
I can hear the OoE style in it, and since I loved that game's music, I also love your take on a composition inspired by it. The background piano throughout is nice and adds a sense of calmness and sorrow to the song, not to mention the melody itself is quite powerful and emotional.
Excellent job. I'd go as far as to say it's the best piece I've heard from you.
"Something Involving A Boss Battle"
This started off as a mini-boss theme for someone's indie game project but became something totally different instead. Whatever it is, it's intended for a boss battle of some sort, as is to be expected of something of that title.

I'm actually really proud of how this one turned out for doing it so quickly. I made it for class on the 5 sharps/flats or more, 2 minutes long, 50 bars criteria.

So a guitarist friend of mine sent me some soundclips of him playing his guitar the other day, and I was just playing along and send some back to him.
After repeating this process for a while we decided to use our clips and turn it into an actual song.
YAOI is indeed great. You guys did a good job of capturing the "ordinary everyday" feel, my favorite part is the piano at 1:40.
I did another two songs myself, after taking a short break from FL Studio, and changing up my composition style (I still have that Egypt-y sound in some parts though, maybe not a bad thing).
Here are a couple of MIDI files I created. Be forewarned--I'm not really a composer, so there are surely aspects of these that could be drastically improved upon.
Game & Watch Boxing - Start (16-bit): A 16-bit version of the fanfare heard when starting a match on the old Boxing Game & Watch device. I have plans to use this in a YouTube video intro.
Earworm: I've had the melody that went into this song (first heard at 0:20) stuck in my head on and off for the past four years, hence the title. I'm not really sure if the melody is a figment of my imagination, or if it came from some other song. It recurred again yesterday, so in an attempt to get it out, I started creating this MIDI. My efforts were futile...
Edit: Made a few changes to Earworm. The original version can still be found in my file bin.
It sounds nice, but i have to say the drums are a bit too much. There's also not really any melody, just the little tune repeating over and over again. Maybe you should make it longer and let the tune repeat, and add a little melody.
