Darren Schwinghamer Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 Well yes, that's the thing, videogame music is really unique, so if you learn a class about baroque music it may not help you with certain games. also, the -__- thing...basically melodies with purely quarter notes get boring and don't really have any structure. you might want to add 3/8 notes and 1/8 notes to make it more interesting. variation is also good throughout the song, changing the drum beats and arps here and there too. I agree that the chances of using baroque style music in video games is well close to none I would assume... However, baroque is where harmonies started, so understanding the basic harmonies from baroque style music (as well as counterpoint) could be really useful when you think about it... 3/8 notes? That's a dotted quarter note right? xD I'm just trying to make sure I understand lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren Schwinghamer Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 Here's my third version... Still need lots of help for mixing and effects. I can tell that its horrible sounding right now. Anyways, have a listen and let me know what you think could be done to improve it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
