theferrymanhymn chiptunes

Oh, I've got something mighty fine for you... check out the flute/whistle (rather). I've just uploaded it (taron-quak)
VERY COOL adjustments, by the way. You've added a very good touch to the piano keys! Nice and subtle.

[theferrymanhymn]

Yup, again abused some instruments.

Bit of a dreamy experimental tune.

SMU

MP3

I imagine a cloud made of tap dancing bears or something.
Of course, you can barely hear the tapping. ;D

[taron]

I can hear some tapping alright, hahaha! Damn, man, it took me a moment to make sure that my musagi ain't broken, hihihihi, but then I gave it that extra moment and it turned out just as surreal as it promissed to be.
Curious tune... a little like some sort of trip from hell, a secretly spiked joint, or the wrong cup of space-tea, hahaha. If those bears would look like straight out of meet the pheebles, it'll hit it right on the nose! ;D

Curious experience for sure- kudos!

[theferrymanhymn]

Thanks again taron.

Did you also hear the mp3? Does it sound more less the same as in musagi?...I only got one machine here to test stuff on.

Never saw Meet the peebles, did see some on youtube now. Hhehe nightmare food. ;D
The tune made me think of some kinda kids-tv program going of track too.

[theferrymanhymn]

I had the idea for a while to make the "trololo song" as chiptune. But found out today someone beat me too it. Also used musagi.

So yeah, not gonna make it myself anymore.
A nice find made by Robinerd.

[taron]

HAHAHA, incredible! Where's his thread?!? ;D
Great! Thanks for the link!

Another doodle messing with tarons instruments.

I keep making things too dense , ah well.


How are your tunes going taron, anything happening?

[taron]

Ah...I'm on radio silence for a moment...programming instead. But yeah, the tune starts very cool! You should've stayed the course and just crescendo up'n'up... get some crash cymbals, building up to a grand tutti with the whole orchestra, that sort of thing. It really feels like it wants to go that way. As you go down into the base section, it's just like a sad anticlimax that takes the juice out of the build up, really. After that, understandably, the song loses motivation. NONONONOOOO pick it up, it's got GREAT potential! (luv the sounds, Thanks!) Frankly I find it amazing, because I hardly ever reuse sounds and you're making me very happy there!

[theferrymanhymn]

Thanks taron and I agree about the anti climax.
It could be worth revisitting.

Good luck with coding.
I still like someone to mod timing variations into musagi. Maybe I should start bugging people about it. What was it writen in anyway? I dont know much about coding.

just having some fun

happy snow to everyone btw!

[taron]

Oh man, that's a cute tune! EXCELLENT! You went all in with the offbeat percussion loops, haha! Very, very snowy indeed. ;D

ROCK ON! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

[theferrymanhymn]

Abused more taron instruments agian ^^
Lil doodle tune...rather dense, didnt expand on it much.

156.smu

enjoy

[taron]

UH, very U2-ish! I think at 1:16 the song really gets some excellent touch and wants to go to another level...once done with that segment at 1:35 it should go dry and full on without being drowned so much in reverbs. Start the song at 1:16 to hear just how cool this would want to become. ...great job, though!

[theferrymanhymn]

Yes, made me think of U2 a lot too hehe.
Funny you mention 1:16 because I worked backwards from that part. Basically I ended up with a nice sounding loop and did then build a hasty intro in front of it.
The outro is also more of a hasty experiment.

But enough of the U2 crap ^^ I like to try more minimal and with tiny narrative like your "lil ghost party" (test47) I do love that kind a lot. It's like you are watching a small 8 bit Hayao Miyazaki movie, lol.

[taron]

Which would be a fun challenge, too! ;D ...8bit movie!
