My latest musical piece
« on: November 20, 2009, 12:59:49 PM »
Yeah, it's another battle theme, but I'm pretty happy with this one. I'm getting a lot better at making music...well, I guess I should say I'm having an easier time navigating through my midi-making program :P

Anyway, you can listen to it here.

doh...I guess it doesn't like connecting from other sites. I'll just post the link and you'll have to copy/paste it into your browser.

Thanks for listening :) I'm worried it may sound too much like some other song though, like I may have subconsciously stolen a melody without realizing it or something...

I mean it does sound like a solid final fantasy battle song but its a sick remix

No, it wouldn't be FF, that's not the style I was going for. If anything it probably resembles a Kenji Ito (SaGa) or Motoi Sakuraba (Namco Tales) style battle song. My original inspiration was Ito and Yasunori Shiono (Lufia), it's not supposed to copy anything though.

Most people can't really distinguish the different styles of video game music composers... you really have to be a composer yourself to realize the distinct variations and be able to relate different tunes to certain composers. Uematsu has his own style which I have tried to mimic in one of my old battle themes, that one was meant for a NES hack and wasn't nearly as elaborate as this newer piece.

I also should note that the composers I mentioned are far better than I'll ever be...after all, they are my inspirations :P

There was a tutorial for hand-editing the music to Final Fantasy for NES, made by Sliver X...dunno where that is, it was on his website last I checked. I know Super Mario World has a midi-to-spc conversion tool for it, but I haven't tried it myself. I compose music using an old MIDI program called Midisoft Studio (which I got from a friend). I also use a freeware program called Anvil Studio for various tweaks, but that can also be used to compose music too.

Sliver X's website
Romhacking.net, probably has the SMW tool I mentioned. (Actually I think it's part of Lunar Magic)
Anvil Studio

I dunno of a free place to download Midisoft Studio, you can probably find torrents or something though
