  1. While I have a love for obscure and underrated games and after watching a longplay of this shmup, this would be lovely hear in an hard electronic music style. ;) I also timestamped it to its particular song.

    If anyone were to tackle this (or maybe yours truly), maybe add a bit of 'Final Area' and 'Hidden Ending' into the remix too?

    In case you’re not perfect at transcribing tunes to midi already: I’ve always had the best results relying purely on ear, trying to transcribe parts of any given tune that I really fancied, but once I get something I like I just more or less roll with it.
    It’s good exercise: rewarding on the one hand to nail a difficult part verbatim once in a while, but it’s also possible to turn a couple mistakes into a happy accident combo and get something derivative but highly original, if you’re lucky.

    there’s many many ways to tackle creative arranging, but this is probably the best short balanced advice I can think of for someone learning the ropes: don’t use midi, train your ear, but don’t aim for perfection unless you really want to, instead see if whatever mistakes you might make can be turned into a virtue.

     

    it’s sort of a jazz staple, only not in real time. Poor man’s Jazz if ya will!

    As a music person who listens by ear, I usually rely on that anyways. ;) And thank you so much for the advice, everyone!

  3. Hey folks, while I'm slowly climbing back into not just art, but primarily music here, I have this problem with this large hurdle I've been meaning to cross.

    Recently, I wanted my music and remixes to sound less repetitive and/or cover-like, but I constantly keep falling into the trappings of these major flaws when it comes to composing.

    As I understand that it takes practice trying to avoid doing so, any further ideas of what to do in this kind of situation? Thanks in advance!
