incidentally c64 gives you more possibilities for this stuff, listen to the filtered thunder or ring-mod/triangle wails in this.

I couldn't do wind sound but I did rain and thunder effect. What I exactly need to do for making wind sounds?

I also think unexpected changes, odd time signatures can have a very unsettling effect.


<-scariest video game song ever in my opinion, those stereo background notes and the unexpected pauses always made me super nervous.

Copy that onto another channel, played slightly delayed and half the volume. Also experiment with pulse 25 and 75 passing in unison, but slightly detuning them.

I won't suggest a scale to play for now because it is dependent on the other elements of the song.

So I decided to adding few spooky effect to the song. I made one, below you can find link. Any ideas how can I produce different kind of spooky effects like; scream, door creak, hysterical laugh, eerie ambiance, things like that.

Second, I'm using C Lydian (Augmented fourth) scale for the song. What other type of scales can be added to this?
