Treyt Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Hey there, music artist here. I'm looking for a community/project/job/people to get more involved with. People to learn from, geek out over random music pieces, place for more exposure as an artist, etc. Whether you're an artist, or just enjoy game music, would you recommend getting involved here? And why? Thanks, -Me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 One school of thought is that is you have to ask, you have your answer. Another school is that you already answered yourself by joining. But it's summer, and school is out. Yeah, sure. Lots of talent pooled here, it's mostly just finding people that are free to collab and willing to invest the time. Just make sure anything you want to do is interesting and original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockos Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 I would say yes. I've been lurking here since the site opened. I started posting music around 2011 to the submission hoping that I can increase my ability as a musician. You have a really great community over here ready to give feedback and share their ambition either about games, or game music itself. I really recommend it.

Liontamer Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Biased because I help the site run these days, but I came in as just a fan (and am not a musician). Once I tried all the arrangements outside of the games I was nostalgic for, I only then realized how special this site and the community was. If you’re interested in video game music, music production and collaboration, there’s arguably no better place to get better than here. In terms of other VGM hobbyist arrangement communities, other places have more relaxed standards (not inherently a bad thing, just different, and OCR started the same way), and in terms of pro audio communities, it’s oftentimes difficult to get in depth (or civil and constructive) feedback. There also the Discord server, which you should join at https://discord.gg/VABjqGa.

The Coop Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) NO! RUN! SCURRY! FLEE! Disappear into the woods and never look back at it! No matter how close behind you it feels or sounds, don't - turn - around! For should its eyes catch yours, you'll be forever imprisoned within its gaping mental maw... forced to live only on bad tuna.

HLEET Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Welcome ! Don't forget to stop by the competitions forum part. It's fun and you'll learn a lot by their feedback too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kupernikus Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 I mean, no. But also yes. But also, go make some music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xarnax42 Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 OP has posted a whole bunch of music in the Discord since asking this question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorito Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 OP is also already active in the community and is (almost) done with a track for the upcoming Final Fantasy 8 album. So I guess we can consider the question answered Jonathan David Arndt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Ascher-Weiss Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 This community helped me meet one of my very best friends and I will always be grateful to Larry Oji! Gario, Geoffrey Taucer and Patrick Burns 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rux Ton Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I am a very long-time lurker (my old account was wiped i believe from the old forum) but I have been around peeping since the early days and I will say this community is just filled with talented people who have helped me develop over-time. I actually got really life-changing advice when i was super young here about my direction of music and I took it to heart and well, now I am a much better artist than I ever have been. You will love it here! Much love ❤️ Jonathan David Arndt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
