ghost 2687 Posted August 7, 2019 So, in my free time I like to dabble in composition. I don't really have a style yet, as it's just for fun, and I don't know much about music production. I'm gonna start this thread with a song I started like 2 years ago and finally sat down and finished tonight. It's inspired from Castlevania music (specifically the soundtracks that Michiru Yamane worked on - Symphony of the Night, Lament of Innocence, etc.) It starts off like a requiem but climaxes like an overture. If you like organs, harpsichord, and choral music, you might dig it. 5 2 Gesu, Arkady, monkeybanana4 and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Manabu 144 Posted August 7, 2019 For someone who only dabbles this is good! You've certainly nailed the Castlevania style (It definitely has that playstation One vibe) But as some constructive criticism, I'd suggest lowering the volume and treble on the hats and cymbals. 1 ghost reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ghost 2687 Posted August 7, 2019 (edited) @Manabu - Hey thanks! Really happy you think that 😀 That's a good suggestion. Yeah, now that you mention it I think it does sound on the hotter side. Thanks for your input : ) Edited August 7, 2019 by ghost Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fyrnia4Maya 41 Posted August 27, 2019 I like this alot! I know nothing about composition, but this sounds to me like a ost more than anything, with alot of tonal (not harmony tonal, emotion tonal) changes and swaps. I think I will listen to it in my free time, take that as a compliment please 1 ghost reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ghost 2687 Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) There was a time I recorded random snippets of melody ideas I had, most of them being on piano. Last year I revisited my library of recordings and found one I really liked. I put on a chillhop rhythm to it and then recorded a guitar part for it just a couple weeks ago. Still learning how to mix and produce so it's definitely not professional, but hey I'm just a bedroom hobbyist doing something he enjoys.
