A couple of tunes...

Miscellaneous Forums/Graphics Showcase/A couple of tunes...

"Dreamy". This song really doesnt go anywhere, its so basic im not even sure it would pass as menu music. "Piano riff" ? It sounds like a piano practice tune or something. I suggest you make it 1 minute long and put it on repeat. Or even better make the sounds mix in at random so it sounds "nearly different" cos that way you will cut down file size and make it more loopable. This is a loop, right? The noise in the background also sounds plastic, was that a MIDI sound patched in some soundediting app or something?

"Regret" sounded better at the beginning. Putting vocals in a game rarely works. Especially this kind of awfuly cheesy love song, oh my god. Better put Justin Timberlake if you want to put this in Alien Breed. He can at least sing better than that singer. His voice is so wobbly he wouldnt even pass as american idol lol! This song is trying TOO hard to sound like a generic tune, its incredible. It sounds like i heard it so many times before, maybe on a pregenerated synth tune, you know one of those? Then just vocals on top. And at the end "Time to move on" oh far out, someone needs singing lessons. Hire a normal singer, ey? The production itself is ok, considering how you probably did it. But again that plastic sound is squeezed in, that 90s techno-dance spice... heheh...

"Sanxion". A remake, ok. Cheese and more cheese. This is the 80s now, right? They had different cheese in 80s i think. Yea. This tune is all over the place, no shape or form, too much even for a synth dance tune like that. What is the song trying to achieve? Nothing? Or just piss people off. And then it repeats of course. The scratching sound in the rear is very "Amiga" tho, and it nearly makes me remember my GameBoy days. Theres also a sound in it that makes me think of Mario popping out of a tube at one point. "Electric strings" are all over the middle of the song again using one or two basic shapes and trying to combine into something specific but the lack of musical knowledge is audible. The end of the song sounds like a news bulletin just ended.

Megablast is pretty good, well done that one.

Thats ok, i never ever heard any game music that was anywhere near great quality, maybe rarely some ambiental stuff works... But maybe this isnt for a game?
