My midis

[Ferkvbm]

Hi! It has been a long time! Well...i'm here because finally I did those things I had to do and it would be cool to learn a little more about composing songs, so, here I am again to post what I do. In spite of I still can't exactly compose what I think I hope this time the midis sound more like they should be ^^

I'll Start posting an arranged version of the Neverdying waltz, and with this question: Should I post the midis I sent to resources too?

Neverdying Waltz: http://www.axifile.com/?7797675

I'll also send...
Spanish Taverns: http://www.axifile.com?7991839

Hope you like them, feel free to criticize (but please, be gentle, long time I don't compose) ^^

It was a boring day when I found the man of the guitar again, and we made this song, he put the base and I created the main melody (unfortunately, I was not able to compose the base he did, so I had to change it)
I think it's too short but it loops for now, if someday I make it longer I'll let you know.

An old request

Machine Graveyard 2: http://www.box.net/shared/l2a5690v4c

Maybe I'll make one for the contest if i have time ^^

Machine graveyard reminds me a bit of the music from Phantasy Star.  To answer your question in your first post, yes, submit these to the Complete Resources, they're pretty awesome :3

[Ferkvbm]

Thanks a lot fot the answer ^^ I'll remake some of the midis because some of them really do not sound as good as they should.
Here is the first old one:
Erdgas: http://www.box.net/shared/0o2otjnv61
It's very simple, and it was made just to test those instruments but it's not bad at all.

All your midis are really impressive. Spanish Tavern prolly would've been awesome without the clapping. You seem to have a very good grasp on music. 

[Ferkvbm]

I composed this midi to fit with the situation of a city trying to defend itself from the wrath of a legendary sea monster. Hope you find it useful! It loops ^^

Sea God's Rage: http://www.box.net/shared/ubhh1v0a5b

Fantastic. Your MIDIs have a very classic feel to them, like they're from the glory days of 8/16 bit consoles. I agree with dren that Spanish Tavern's clapping hurt it a bit, but rather than removing it, I think it would be cool if you made it follow the beat like actual castanets. It's hard to describe here, but castanets usually follow the beat with fast triplets and evenly spaced eighth notes (that was off the top of my head, so it's probably not exact). What I mean is like... rather than constant clapping it'd be more like... uh... "clap. clap. claclaclap." Yeah, haha sorry, no idea if that makes sense.

My favorite is definitely a tie between Neverdying Waltz and Sea God's Rage. Neverdying Waltz was great, like FF and Nightmare Before Christmas like MT said, and Sea God's Rage felt right out of Golden Sun. It was subtly intense and well put together with only a few instruments, which just goes to show you that a lot of instrument embellishment isn't always the key.

Anyway, nice to have a new composer I really like here. I'm always pretty critical so it's definitely not common for me.

[Ferkvbm]

I know the clapping is a little annoying, I should learn a little more about rythm tracks.
Golden Sun? I wish I could compose like that, that game has a lot of great songs ^^

Here is another one :

Wind Temple: http://www.box.net/shared/k7ed2frt00

Another midi, I really wanted to make a Final Fantasy like battle theme, but I just did this

[Ferkvbm]

Well...here it is, the first song I decided to compose, but not the first I did.

First song: http://www.box.net/shared/slg73d0dse

I don't like the end, but I've got in my mind an arranged version that soon will solve this problem (as soon as I can)

Finished practicing some things so I hope to send something new soon.

[Hell Angel]

You're pretty good, man. I like them. Like Dren said, you definately have a grasp on music. You know what your doing.

[Desimodontidae]

These are amazing, bro!! I really liked Neverdying Waltz, Erdgas, Sea God's Rage, and Wind Temple. And the "main song" wasn't so bad... great used of counterpoint. May I ask what program you use, cause you're kicking it's ass!

[Ferkvbm]

I use Anvil studio, it's a VERY easy to use FREE program. So easy that even someone who has no idea of what a counterpoint is can use it. Just google it and you will find it on the main web. Good luck!
