Re: bite size tunes (24 replies, posted in General Discussion)
hrm i thought this was about filesize until i read it
but yes i am a real fan of the shorter songs but people don't seem to give them as much respect as a 5 minute song... and most peoples 5 minute songs only have about 30 seconds of musical idea in them anyway!
there are loads and loads of really short little module files if you look around at modland (i know looking for good music at modland can feel like looking for a needly in a haystack sometimes though) for example (modarchive has a minimum length requirement) and they will have more of an Old School Sound and won't be post hardcore punk rock

Re: Painting a DMG without covering text (27 replies, posted in Tutorials, Mods & How-To's)
a brand new thread just to say "The paint job looks stunning! And the text really does show through well. Thanks for this, now to order some of that paint..." would be stupid so the "necrobump" makes sense here
and the paint job does look good indeed!

Re: GBC BASS MOD (25 replies, posted in Tutorials, Mods & How-To's)
i don't think this BASS MOD affects the sound you get from the speaker
the lack of bass there is something else not caused by electronics

some people make really good music in an hour and some people make really bad music in a month. so i don't think it is obvious that spending more t ime must definitely better
which is why i decided to ask
listen, the best song I've ever heard (and best chiptune I've ever heard) was made in one hour. But the person who made it put countless hours into his craft, mastering it. In fact, he even practiced doing compositions in an hour as an exercise (its a really good one!).
It doesn't matter how long it takes you to make a song. Inspiration can strike anywhere, but you have to actually put in the time beforehand to actually be able to capture it. Some tracks on my album were made in a night or 2. Others were made over the course of months.
I get music jobs because I can make decent music, RIGHT AWAY. Like, my deadline is often 3 days later and I have to be able to make something that not only fits the theme but also sounds good in terms of composition, but also production. Guess what? That has taken me ~15 years of music making, and ~7 years of audio production to be able to do that.
But even still, stuff that I spend a little more time with usually turns out better.
the thread isn't about whether one should spend time on music. it's about whether one should spend a long amount of time on a song. on a SINGLE song. of course you have to practise.
oh well you didn't really GET the thread
maybe it was a bad thread to begin with
