I have a similar process where i literally only work on the songwriting process and then when i feel its done i move into a rough arrangement and then add in all that little ear candy and effects. great video. there are not enough arrangement videos on UA-cam
Heck yeah! Love that, thank you for sharing and your kind words :)
My favorite is LMMS for video games music 😎
If you want to be authentic with no air quotes, run a C64 emulator and hand code your song like a man.
you said a lot but really you said nothing
the song is uniqe because it actually has 2 different basses
Nice video!! You look like a slightly chubby Tom Holland!
Can you use Finale for this?
For sure
"To illustrate this very point, here's a melody I came up with, while shopping with my family..." **annoying TEMU ad music kicks in** godDAMMIT!
What game is this for
I just watched this again- did you intentionally quote Zelda's Lullaby at 5:00?? 😆🤣
Thanks you man
For sonic game?
Ain't no mountain high enough.
This is, by far, the BEST guide on YT on how to compose AND record music/, no matter if it's game music or not. Thank you so much, man!
Really appreciate it :) What do you want to see next?
dudethedude
I really like the Bee Swarm Simulator songs
What i want to know is how they made music for "kage shadow of the ninja"
yeah I've been using Reaper since 2015 and its incredible. Doesn't require much CPU especially if you get up to 100 tracks.
hold on i accidentally used some of these tips before learning them lol
I like how you completely glossed over the F major chord being outside of the normal chord types for that key, but made it seem like the G major chord was the oddball
The tracker is not free.
Wow this was awesome I didn't realise you had so few subscribers
This theme has been welded into my brain for a long time now. I'm glad this video exists, love it. Even if it took me years to find.
Glad you like it!!
So that III in banjo is a bit more interesting. Not only is it a major III, it's a chromatic mediant, but also a V of vi. Since it moves to vi, it's better to analyze it as a V of vi rather than III. What makes it so good is that chromatic motion of the voices from the 5th of the scale (G of C,E,G) to sharp 5th (G# of E,G#,B), to the 6th (A of A,C,E)
This guys a liar, and a PHONY! I followed the instruction, handed over a full score to some guitarist friends and imagine my surprise when, instead of immediately playing it as advertised; they asked me: what kind of tab is this?!
Lmao as a fellow guitarist, this checks out
It's fun actually
Great information, much appreciate your insights.
I am a proffesional pianist,director orchestra,arranger and composer. I have a proffesional band and im the one that writes the scores for the musicians to play when we have a concert. I transcribe by ear most of the time and there is no easy way to do it becose you must have at least an average good music ear.
And the catch is, to get a good ear you’ve gotta transcribe!
Furnace Tracker and FamiTracker:
Im not a composer 😢
You definitely nailed the Mega Man X style! I can just imagine jumping and shooting lemons to these boppin tunes!
Thank you!! <3
Another great software, or should I say website, is beepbox. I highly recommend it
NES VST Is a virus 100%
i hate to admit it, but i need the full version
I *hate* when Johnny McMcGannis steals all my cow, but I *LOVE* to steal chord progressions from all the best composers in the biz!
when i open the nes vst folder, the nes vst is an adobe acrobat reader file and i cant open it in fl studio how do i fix this?
S**t deflemask isn't free anymore
It’s called “DAW” like “dah” lol Why do ppl say “d-a-w?” lol just call it a DAW-like it’s always been called lol
Because it's an acronym. :) When I'm teaching beginners I'll say "Dee ay double-you" to signify that each letter stands for something. Otherwise I just say "dah."
These sound so legit ! I can here the blast processing
😎 Please respond!! How do writer's are producer decide a song slow are fast?
I also found this really cool software called "Sigview" which allows you to drop an audio file and look all the frequencies. So you can use it to see ALL the notes that are in the song (even the ones suuuuuper hard to hear).
It amazes me significantly that 8-bit is crazy.
I'm gonna crush the Reaper with this guide! Can't wait to start! Thank you, man!
how about using Nanoloop or LSDJ with a GBC emulator [if we can't find/buy a GBC and an empty cartridge] or Korg-DS10 ?
Great conversation. I composed the song just for one 2d game, you can hear it in my channel
Legendary video. Short, sweet, and to the point 💪🏻
can you post these songs?
so will we get a tutorial? :)
Thanks for showing me that nice VST :) It's getting used in a project immediately. I have used Tweakbench VSTs for a long time but I liked how pure this one was.
