I did not think it was grotesque, It was just blah

I would step out of the box, and be more "controversial" with your sound

Question... if the general consensus is that "out of the box" music is better and most of the more prolific musicians use that approach... wouldn't that make it "in the box" and "less controversial"?

Listen this thread might as well be titled 'how do I write music'

I'm waiting for that thread to happen if it hasn't already. Are all music composition forums filled with these kinds of threads?

It would make sense... considering the theme of the forum is Music Composition...

Also... so Hedgehogs really don't have much attitude, then?

Is there a way to delete threads? This is all really embarrassing.

You could probably use the "REPORT" button or something.

How's your batterY?

people aren't going to do this because they don't have any idea of what they want to improve or even believe that they can improve. they just want people to say  REALLY GOOD TRACK smile) YOU ARE GOOD i think most of the time. imho we don't need a constructive criticism section here

but i agree with you, if people are actually going to ask for help this is how they should do it

I think that's part of the reason CC threads are so vague sometimes. They KNOW there's probably something off, but they don't have the expertise to figure out what it is, so they(we?) bring it to you guys to critique and point out the flaws that they missed.

I wear glasses and don't have a problem.  Maybe you need poofier pads.

Sounds like something that would be in an old DOS game or something, but it's not really something I'd rip from the game and add to my mp3 library. It's serviceable background music, at the very least...

Edit: Needs a stronger beat. It sounds underdeveloped, like it's a concept for something to be performed by a full ensemble of instruments.

Edit: Hey, if you play guitar or something... ^_-

The Boy Bands like N*Sync and the Backstreet Boys had some pretty sick drops. Just listen to the part after the "slow down symphonic bridge" that they had in every song. That's a great drop.

My Bleep Bloop II carts came with a song called  "Blue" on them.  It was pretty good and I learned a lot of stuff from it early on.

Bluesight.  I had it upped at 8bc, should reup it to CM now that it's down for good.

Please do smile

I thought this was a thread asking how to get more CC.

I will definitely take the advice posted here to heart.

Yeah. Don't delete your stuff just because the rating goes down, anyway. You never know...

Yeah... I kind of use the, comments and the "Bookmark" and "Download" buttons as a "Thumbs up", if you will, but not everybody sees it that way, and will just be like "Hmmm. I like this. *next*" without commenting or whatever. Doesn't mean your music isn't worth something.

Oh, also, that Leonardo is pretty sick.

Didn't we have a thread for this?

To be clear, all my pixel art is exported as a png or bmp, but for some reason Photobucket hosts it as a JPG. Any suggestions on image hosts that DON'T do that?

Are you sure photobucket is hosting your PNGs as JPG? I know for certain that they compress BMPs into JPG files, but all my PNGs stay as pngs.

IMO, you guys should have used, like, an epic photo of your band 'shopped with cool dramatic effects and colors for artwork. Like... that's so rare in chip... it'd make an impact, I think.'

Yeah... artwork. It's weird, but... it seems like artwork and title are really what draws people in.

But, yeah... I love this. it's so epic. The blending of chip and live instruments is perfect. I'd love to see it live.

I was so not ready for this big_smile

I'm am so happy. =')

I love RCHAN (even though I see some flaws in the game). She's right up there with Iji.
