Here are some other font options I'd explored:
Is there a particular style/look & feel you're aiming for?
-
Narrowed down on two options

I'm a designer by trade, I'll try some ideas. Does it need the logo, or is text okay? Otherwise, just "2003 Q1/2/3/4" etc.?

How's something like this?

Yeah let me give it a try!

That worked, thanks!

Sounds great! Wouldn't mind doing another year or two if you need—here's some other work, aiming to showcase a breadth of styles.

Sent these over to DS last night, but here's my take for one of the years!
- MegaMixtape, pixelseph, DarkeSword and 1 other

I'd love to join!

Really love the introduction on this one—builds in a nice way, super textural, and instantly catches my interest! Great track.

Obsessed with how great the drums are 😍 Stunning arrangement and performance all around!

This is so gorgeous! @pixelseph's comment also seems to imply it's all midi programmed, not live played, which is blowing my mind. Stunning piece.
- pixelseph and Hemophiliac

Definitely want to get in on this! Maybe with a Horizon Zero Dawn or Forbidden West arrangement?

I agree with @H36T, but additionally, I'm dying for the rest of the melody to come in earlier. There's a decent amount of material to work with, but you're not really utilizing anything but that opening line. Love the style, but definitely want more of the original melody to come in sooner!

Hi folks! Working on making a version of Chrono Trigger's "Guardia Millennial Fair" that sounds like it's taking place at night, rather than during the day.
Hoping to get feedback on:
- Whether this feels okay to submit — it's short, and uses a layer of samples from Splice to bring in ✨ vibes ✨
- How's the instrumentation? Anything clashing, or any parts need improvement?
- How's the mix? Anything too loud or too quiet? Does the panning seem okay?
Appreciate any and all feedback!

drumming style - establish to yourself what you want to accomplish with your drums. Are you writing trap music? Rock music? Dubstep music? Other? Adapt the way the drum rhythm is written to match the genre you want to go for, and choose your drum samples to match that genre.
Just checking — both the rhythm and specific drum samples sound like trap here?
I might be able to record something on a live kit soonish which would definitely help with both tone and humanization ?I did tweak the velocity on the drums (since I'm much more...aurally? aware of that than any other instrument, especially things like guitar, brass, and woodwinds) but probably not enough. The biggest trouble I'm having with programming drums into my DAW is like... getting what I hear/feel in my head down into notes. Like, I know how I'd want it to sound if I was actually playing it at a kit, but translating that has been a struggle. Maybe I'll also practice transcribing drum parts from songs down into my DAW as an exercise.

Thanks @timaeus222, I really appreciate you taking the time to review my song, and for offering such great examples. I'll keep iterating!
