^^^^ this but for writing a game soundtrack
I didn't think I'd have a track for this but actually, Sony by Aviel might be my pick. I love the slow build with the quiet sines, then vocals, then drums, then glitchy pad, then deep bass finally rounding out everything. It's so smooth.
anything by indoors, especially the indoors/sleepytimejesse jam

A lot of stuff can be learned "on the job" playing around and experimenting while writing over the years. Listen to songs you like and spend an afternoon studying them. That's basically what I've always done.
And I have no bias against formal training either. While I've grown pessimistic about academia and, in general, college, I've learned a lot from some very talented people during my time at music school. A big thing to remember is that they don't usually try to dictate what music IS so much as teach what other people have done and what fast and hard rules you can take away from that. Using that knowledge alone you'll write "functional" music, but making interesting music is all on you!
I'd recommend if you're at a school just sit in on a couple theory classes if that's interesting to you. I love the stuff. Otherwise you can learn a lot of the stuff over time or online if you can ask the right person or search the right inquiry.
A band is only as good as the sum of its parts. Bare in mind if you are going to end up doing all the work, you don't need other people. The other people are there to work with and to thrive through one another. When you get that mix of personality, talent and vision between people, writing interesting music becomes pretty natural
So my humble advice would be to assemble the right team, cast out any freeloadin' downers along the way, and keep things open and collaborative once you've got people as good or better than you to work with
Oh man it is so smooth and beachy
u avi thanks for trusting me with your beautiful music
it's upsetting to see that people can be such f--king psychopaths
"Stanley must travel through space and time in a universe of early nineties IDM and 16-bit tones to reach a mysterious transmission on the moon of Saturn named Titan."
The latest album by the young avante-garde chip-jazz artist, Stanley and The Sirens 1998 (Part I) pays homage to films by Kubrick and the organized chaos of free jazz greats like Sun Ra.
Composed in SunVox.
