The Spirit Stone OST

Forgot to ask: Why are these songs MP3's, when it sounds like it is all midi instrument?

The Spirit Stone OST

Monster Ritual: Sounds pretty good. The percussion seems to cut out a little too suddenly at the beginning (feels like it should have some reverb I guess). There were also some times where it was maybe too calm. Otherwise, it's a pretty solid piece.

Battle Ritual: Big fan of this one. High pace, solid back beat, and overall it sets the mood. Very climatic at times as well.

Boss Ritual: The majority of the piece is very fitting. However, at times, it loses it's 'pump' feeling, and thus, it feels more like a danger theme, or the like. I feel it needs to stay more like the majority of it, and stop slowing down, etc. Having said that, the slow parts are incredibly well done, they just don't fit the theme of a boss fight.

Lady's Honor: Very fitting to the title. It sounds great, and immediately creates imagery of an honorous moment to the listener. Reminded me of some earlier Final Fantasy music, to be honest. I did not like the part at :129, however. It took away my image, and put something more daring, or troubling in mind. However, I have not seen where this fits into your game, so I can't say much there.

Conquerer Chieftain: Very good, solid song. The slap bass did become a little repetitive, but otherwise, this song was great. The change at 1:36 flowed nicely, and gave a break from that same bassline, however. No other comments aside from that.

Hunter Chieftain: The beat and energy to this song is great. I loved the percussion involved as well. However, the techno-esque sounding drum at the beginning didn't really fit to me. When there are multiple going, it sounds great, but the one running consecutive quarter notes felt very out of place. Something more traditional might have sounded better.

Divine Chieftain: Well done, gospel type piece. It started rather slow, but I'm sure it would feel much better in game. The energy afterwards is great, especially if used in a boss fight.

Lover Chieftain: A lot of this song sounded a little bit too random for me. Some of the notes didn't feel right together, and some just stuck out too much. There was also a lot of 'blank space' where it felt like an additional instrument should be playing. Otherwise, pretty good.

The Great Adversary: The intro to this one was great... right up until the marching portion first started. For a while, it sounded almost comical. However, the marching part does develop, and eventually, this piece sounds awesome and powerful, which is good to hear.

Clan of Famine: The first and second set of music box notes do not seem to compliment each other very well. The second set seems to have one odd sounding note that stick right out. It sounds alright, but no more than that.

Clan of Woe: Definitely flows much better than the previous song. The notes are all complimentary, and nothing makes you want to tear your hair out. It sounds great, and sets a good mood.

Clan of Wrath: Very mood setting, quite powerful. There are times where the song once more feels like parts cut out very quickly. The instrument attacks and vanishes quickly, but otherwise sounds good. It becomes much more powerful as it progresses, which may be good or bad, depending on how it was used.

Clan of Pride: Very nice ambient sounds in the back (harp, strings, etc). I found this song was great in some places, and just alright in others.

Warrior's Lodge: I find that the 1 and 3 notes of the song are a little too heavy. While I imagine you were going for that 'bouncy' feel, I think it could have backed off slightly, so that it was more of a slight accent, and not a jump. Otherwise, very friendly, almost cute song. Reminds me a little of Pokemon games.

Lurking Malice: Great intro, especially percussion wise.Lots of buildup and excitement, and plenty going on. The transition to the calmer portion was a little rough, but was otherwise well done. Overall, the song gets a good pumped feeling out of the listener, and was very well done.

Flickering Hope: The song itself is good, but it feels like it is between styles little bit, and I don't really feel the title in the music. It seems almost more of an overcoming type song (character dies, other's are sad, but must continue, etc.) As stated originally though, the song is great.

Depressing Sadness: Very mood-setting, and rather well done. You made the right choice in leaving percussion out of this piece, and because of such, it sounds as it should. Perhaps a little empty, but otherwise great.

Fate is to be Discarded: I wasn't a big fan of this one. The song jumps around quite a bit to me, and is just somewhat average. I might have a different opinion if I had seen/heard it in the game instead. The midpoint of the song is pretty good, however.

Main Theme: While this song was pretty good, it didn't really stick out as a main theme, nor do I think it was good enough to be the main theme. Many of your other songs were considerably better than this one, so it seems wrong that it is the one known as the 'main' song. However, it is rather good, and does set a good mood.

Overall: The soundtrack is quite good, and definitely will set your game apart from others. Most of the songs set the mood well, and are climatic, with high amounts of energy. I hope you continue making music like this, and perhaps invest in getting some VSTi's to make it sound even more awesome.

A couple of things to work on: Some of the dynamics of your music, such as fall-off of notes. Too often do you have notes cut out, leaving blank space, creating an almost awkward moment. Otherwise, your music is awesome.

There is the feedback you have been wanting :D. God this took forever.

Time for you guys to pay me back

Muahahahaha

Is that good or bad?

New song was added.

Interracial relationships....Tell me your thoughts...

post=110831
Gay sex is not just right, it's fun too. interracial gay relationships are good too though i doubt it's as common as interracial heterosexual relationships


I think this is what generally turns the general public away from homosexuals. Most people don't want to picture/hear about it, but are otherwise totally ok with it.

I have a gay uncle, he is rather successful. I don't mind hearing him gab about how hot some guy is, or how he went on a date, etc. But I would definitely not like to listen to him talk about what happened that night.

Anyways, interracial is cool.

Thanks for the feedback, Relyt.

In Chocolate rain, I did originally have more bass, but it continuously caused some problems, not entirely sure why. Perhaps certain VSTi instruments don't enjoy working together.

In No Name, there is a guitar, and a bass playing. Both were VSTi sounds. I didn't use anything but piano roll for either of these.

Recently, I've been making small tracks of music, just for fun (no real practical use), so I decided I would post some. Besides, I really haven't been very active at RMN the last while, so I might as well start again.

Chocolate Rain Remix
This was just fun to make. I learned the song on piano a while ago, so I decided it would be awesome to test out some VSTi's with. I love it with the drums.

No Name
Again, just trying out some VSTi's. Not entirely sure why, but some of them sort of...glitched out... The rendering of audio also screwed up, but whatever. I still think it sounds neat.

Boss Battle
Made it randomly late at night. It's not mixed very well, but it was more of a "Hey, I wonder how this would sound" rather than made to be practical. Anyways, I'm still happy with the result.

*NEW*Untitled Techno
Yep, untitled again. I do this for fun, so i don't really bother with names. Anyways, give this one a look, and tell me what you think. Yes, youtube did in fact rape the quality of the drums.

Probably a silly question

Craze, shut up.
