  1. Woopz, sorry, I didn't get back to this thread til just now, otherwise I'd have picked a robot guy D:
  2. omgad, i have a fan! Welp, I don't buy into the whole minor/major thing. I suppose I use them as a base and modulate/create accidentals when necessary. For instance, that chiptune you like (Spitting Fire, I am assuming) is written in a minor key, but it doesn't have a "sad" feeling. Keys are just are just aesthetically guaranteed sets of intervals. Sure, people will tell you there's a happy/major or minor/sad quality to certain keys or intervals, but it's all in the context. If you're writing in minor keys and all your tunes sound sad, then that's either your intent or you aren't being creative enough with how you're using that scale, accidentals, or harmonies. And yeah, chiptunes are definitely awesome <3<3
  3. C#/Db major has always been my favorite-sounding scale. It sounds so warm. I think all the notes in the scale just happen to fall in a really pleasing frequency range. But I'm really just bullshitting; it's probably a matter of taste. Otherwise, I write pretty much all my minor tunes in F minor. Why? iono.
  4. Happy birthday, Calum. Don't even think about correcting me.
  5. Based on the lyrics, I think you may be looking for every pop song ever written.
  6. Whaaaat... that sucks. I hope the recovery goes smoothly, man.
  7. Touche. 10CHARSOLAME On a related note, I used to own a Yobo. Imagine a really shitty 3rd party NES remake. Now go one step shittier. You have just pictured the Yobo. Even when I first bought it, it smelled like burnt plastic. It even played like burnt plastic, whatever the hell that means.
  8. Bawww, <3<3 forever !! And just so you people know, Callum has ridiculous potential. Future OCR superstar. I'm calling it.
  9. Haha, no problem. I was kinda surprised my sarcasm went undetected, but it is the internet, after all. And booze is involved, so that basically automatically reverses the connotation of all written language to the reader.
  10. It was sarcasm. You're an awesome composer.
  11. I had always thought that Callum only had one 'l' in it, and I almost replied telling you that you had spelled your name wrong. Almost.

  12. The art is beautiful. It's very reminiscent of Chrono Trigger. Too bad some loser wrote the music also, too bad I have no money D:
  13. I will mod the original Metroid for my son so he grows up knowing that women cannot simultaneously bear children while defeating evil. And I will turn both Zelda and Peach into men. And then I will become a Senator. And then I will touch a boy.
  14. Uhhhhh... wow. I wouldn't give that guy a single penny. edit: ok, so this page is clearly a joke, and a really, really good one at that. Also, this, basically. Kickstarter is a brilliant idea. Put venture capitalism in the hands of the consumers (granted, without tangible gains on equity barring the realization of the funded project). What could possibly be more empowering than that?
  15. Alicia's Keys is what I'm really excited for, actually. That, and just about everything else in Komplete. But mostly Alicia's Keys.
  16. Really? You've never seen Komplete on sale? Man... then I have no idea what I was thinking of. I could have sworn Komplete was half off on Black Friday, but yeah, that would be a pretty absurd discount.
  17. I'm 100% sure Komplete usually goes on sale, and I'm somewhat less sure that sale is 50% off. If Komplete 8 Ultimate is 50% off, I'm gonna have a bad time when my wife finds out I bought it...
  18. Komplete 8 Ultimate vs. Komplete 8 Komplete 8 Ultimate is $1000. Komplete 8 is $500. If I remember correctly, NI has a 50% Black Friday special on each Komplete package. Please correct me if I'm wrong! Can anyone weigh in on the additional NI products included with Komplete 8 Ultimate? Is it worth the extra $$$$$$$$$$?? If I'm wrong about that 50% off Black Friday sale, though, there's no way I can buy either Shit, I need to finish school...
  19. AWESOME. So cool that you get to write the music for this. It was a pretty fun game.
