Snow Taradien

Not a bad suggestion. I'll consider adding it in to the next release.

It's "In a Snowbound Land."

This is the very first cut, of the WIP I'm working on. By the finish I will have added vocals, and fixed up the arrange. The original song is "In a Snowbound Land" The Lyrics will be from Hamlet, the Play. Why? Not sure at the Moment. I feel like it I suppose. Do I need a better reason? Any and all feedback is wanted.

Ah, that definitely explains it then. I enjoy being helpful in anyway I can, you are very welcome.

It lacks presence, feeling. It just seems empty to me. As to off notations, go listen to 0:30 to 0:58 of the original sample track here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zk_yTNr8cyU&playnext=1&list=PL813A14F7A05884BA&index=9 As you'll notice, your version, which includes most of this progression, severely deviates at the end, or so it sounds to me. The change in notation from the original doesn't, in my opinion, work as well with the surrounding piece of music. But of course, that's just me.

This could go somewhere actually... I kind of like it. But the abrupt ending is kind of off putting. Just an inquiry, but what are the words exactly?

I am a sucker for Epoch. The Sealed Door even more. You've made my day.

This is really quite cool, and frankly I think both of these games really deserve more attention than they get. I like the idea, but it seems a bit hollow somehow, like there is some sort of unknown missing element. The way the industrial drums hang off at the end lead me to believe there was going to be more, but there was not. I dunno, there seems to be something missing in some of your samples. Some of your notation seems to be a tad off as well, I'm not sure whether that was intentional due to the nature of the piece, as it is a remix or whether it's because of rendering/track programming error. I do think that this piece could be a lot more than it is.

Thank you very much for the compliments. As for the midi files I do happen to have them somewhere but after my computer crash I lost quite a few. Once I finish retrieving the files I'll make sure to post them all.

Absolutely amazing. An instant favourite. However, the echoing effect can get a tad annoying when listening to it on Earbuds.

Well, I've progressively been getting better at this whole music making business, and made a rather large collection of songs for a large Work in Progress game I'm coding called Empty Thoughts of an Eastern Wonderland. In short, to those familiar with the naming scheme you should already know it, it's a Touhou spinoff. Some of the tracks are remixes, and some are not, and quite frankly it's VERY easy to tell the difference. I'm not exactly Mozart. I don't use any sort of special music making program, like I'm sure most of you do. Nay, I simply write out my song in Noteworthy Composer [Version 1.75, because to tell you the truth, version 2.0 is horrible.] and then export each track separately using my synthfont program. Co-incidentally I use all my own samples when using straight soundfonts, sometimes I use VST instruments, either way it matters not. I lastly treat, and mix each .wav converted line in audacity, effectly merging them, and add the finishing touches. This is the method I have used for almost three years now, and likely I will not change any time soon. For this reason a lot of people tend not to like the type of music I commonly make. The folder below has every one of the 20 songs from this game's album, and if any of you are so inclined, you may take a listen and criticise me as harshly as you so please afterwords. As long as it has basis and is constructive of course, criticism for criticism's sake is just bad. http://www.sendspace.com/file/cr2pvt Packaged into the lyrics section of each MP3 is the accompanying storyline that goes with that particular song in relation to game, creating a sort of pseudo-audio novel.

I found this mix to be really quite well done, that said I'm a bit of a sucker for Touhou music. I'd always disliked Embodiment of Scarlet Devil as far as the music went, but every now and then somebody like you comes along and proves to me that it CAN be really good.
