Not that anyone would care, but I'm going to give it another shot with this update: http://www.savefile.com/files/1812034 I added an acoustic guitar and fixed a few things.

....better than nothing I guess. Thanks for the comment, whatever it was.

Well, I can give you a more thorough appraisal if you'll appraise my WIP. It should be just below this one, until this is posted, that is, then you'll look for the one beneath it.

What virtual synths did you use was my question, I like the way they sounded, I might try to find some.

What instruments did you use besides the voices and the Amiga?

http://www.zshare.net/audio/1942428816331366/ - Key of D Minor. So I'm trying a new method of composing to get more actual SONG done without having to work within a Fruity Loops file that takes up 70% of my computer resources, and this is what I have. I'm just building a song blueprint at this point and I'm doing it with basic sounds and no fx. Basically what I'm looking for here is whether or not the current arrangement works. This is a song for my first record, and many songs come before it with off-center arrangements and lots of improvising on top, so I wanted to try something a little more basic - something that had an epic sound but kept repeating main themes. The theme for this song is KluYa walking the road to certain death knowing there is no alternative and accepting graciously his fate. The song is going to be more electronic and trance-like when (if) I finish it and it already has a minute ahead of it, so this section would come in after the first minute. The piano line at 2:12 is actually the introduction theme, but I sabotage it with the other main theme throughout the song, just to play with the structure. Thats all I'm doing right now is playing with structure and seeing what works.

Well, it has a clean production sound, other than that, its hard to judge right because there's just not that much there.

Yeah, I'd call this one good from here and start on another one.

I'll make a judgement for yours if you make a judgement for mine.

http://www.savefile.com/files/1782611 This is a song I started in April and spent all day today working on so its makes a decent overworld-ish type song. It's halfway inspired by FFIX and CREID. I'm not very confident with this version as of yet. Its got some ideas but I'm having a hell of a time linking them together and making them believable and workable. About 99% of the instruments are soundfonts and, well, the short end of it is I don't have a clue what I'm doing here, in any aspect of the song. I'm already aware of the major problems, but feel free to really tear into whats wrong here and how I can fix it. Thanks.

Its a bit meh for me. I think they pretty much peaked at Mega Man 7 and everything naturally goes downhill from there. EDIT: You thought I was going to fix it so it said Mega Man 2, didn't you? No, I really mean Mega Man 7 is the best soundtrack in the series.

Ok, I think I get it. You're totally right to mock my topic title too, I don't know why I wrote it that way.

I want to sell a bunch of my rarer games that I'll never get to play and I'm considering using that function, but I'm not very good at those things and can't manage very well. I'm wondering if someone can give me a basic gist of what all I have to know. Like what are their rules on trade? Do I wait until they send me a check before I send the game out? Do I have to send it a certain way? Do I have to pay a percentage to Amazon.com? I feel stupid asking, but this is the best way for me to learn.

Makes me want to play Actraiser

It wouldn't be Zombies Ate My Neighbors it wasn't oversampled.

Ok, lets try illustration. I'm looking for 2 images, one being a Yoshitaka Amano style image (although not nearly as complicated, it would be much simpler) and the other being an image similar to Cowboy Bebop's last image before "You're gonna carry that weight" flashes on. My budget for artwork is pretty modest, but I am willing to pay someone to help me out here.

For a record I hope to do before the end of the year.

The FATMAN himself.

Neither link works.

Ok, so here's my review: No ass-kissing, just honest feedback. The only thing I could really see this music being used is if it were playing during a Wario Ware or some other Nintendo Wii game. It kinda makes me want to play Pilotwings 64, which is awesome because the more reasons I need to play that game, the better. My problem here is, this just sounds like a lot of filler music, stuff that plays inbetween major songs to give the listener a break. None of them grabbed me and few seemed like they had a definite melody or direction. The instruments, well being modest, were used decently and believably and I appreciate the song structure and sound design, but instruments and sound design a song does not make. This is a decent album to start with, but what I would do is take this collection, break it up, and use like 3 of them in 4 other albums that have stronger songs and use these to break them up. 5.8/10 Btw, can I ask you what instruments you used for this?

It says the link is bad.

I'm sick of rock music altogether. Right now, its either Motoi Sakuraba or OCremix. Nothing else matters.

Samurai Champloo? I don't know, thats not really a song you can just hear and pick up.

The reverb is a possibility, but I hand did all the reverb so I'll need to know what specifically needs to be toned down. I also want to avoid doing any further work on the kick drum because I think its way too easy to overdo that. Thanks for giving me an idea of how I'm doing.
