    Cheers Underlord! Very much liking the banjo sound, and your Call of Banjhulhu (though your link to it is hideously broken).

    Well I've never used Noteflight before, but I compose in my free time and have been looking for something new to work on. I might as well contribute to this. I saw the Empire of Blood theme on the wish list and had some ideas for it so unless someone else is already working on it (I didn't see anyone say they were in the posts I read) I will try to get something put up after work.

    Any updates? I was working on a Semi-Elemental Plane of ranch theme, but it turns out the alto sax sounds terrible when changed into a midi files.

    I was bored an didn't want to compose, so I wrote up this batch file for convience in case you have spotty internet or anything, so you can still listen to it. If I missed any of the credits, please let me know. Just realized I was missing Head to head's midi, so I fixed it, re-download it if you already dowloaded it before this update.
    edit 2; I'm in the process of adding a 'play all" option to play all the pieces in the menu's order without having to constantly go back and maually start the next piece.

    It's a nice piece but I'm not sure how well it fits Tarquin, someone who hid his true nature - this song sounds suspicious from the beginning. If you added on a cheerful/grand/cultured-sounding intro, that could help. I'm also curious what this would sound like with more of a march beat.

    I'll join if you let me in.

    Qualification wise, I don't have. I have very little formal training. If it helps though, I played my compositions overseas twice, once in Japan, and the other in China.

    And yes, I play piano. And euphonium, though I've never composed anything out of that...

    Anyway, I've recently composed a song for GITP, though I have no real theme attached to it......

    Who cares about qualification? You're pretty much good if you can read music. Anyone can join, there is not really a membership thing.

    first off, am i the only one who heard this stuff and immediately pictured playing an OOTS gameboy game?

    Secondly, i love what your doing here. All of the themes feel appropriate with the following constructive criticism.

    • I feel that the Greysky city theme was good but a little too upbeat to represent the city. slow the speed down to 90 and lower the tone of the oboe and its dead on.
    • Banjo's theme felt a little too much like a flamingo dance, and with him playing the banjo i pictured something more country for his theme. they may not have a banjo setting on the music maker so you might have just had to work with what you had.
    • The oracle's them felt off. The tune was good but the instruments didn't feel quite right. Again, software limitations may have been the cause.


    Other than that, everything is good. I would love to hear the Saphire Guard's them with oriental instruments and everything else with a wider range of instruments. But you've definitely captured the order of the stick feel in our music.

    keep up the good work, and throw in some Linear Guild and OOts character themes if you can. Thog and Roy were good and i can't wait to see V's and Z's theme.

    For banjo's theme, I changed it into banjo using musescore on the last post of the 3rd page.

    Here, my piece! :P
    A Playground Dream

    It's been re-recorded, so it should sound better

    I'm not sure whether to change the name of the song to:

    'Heaven of Lawful-Good'...

    What do you think?

    Finished the "Desert Trawl and Windy Canyon [Paso Doble on the Sand]". For some reason, the Midi file isn't storing volume info properly resulting in some instruments playing too loud and the clapping not being heard. Also strings stop sounding like strings and sound more like a bad synth. I'll try to get it fixed.

    Now to correct the sheets so that they accurately display what's being heard...

    Violin for V, flute for Z. Make V's part suitably complex to represent him/her, maybe multiple strings instruments and classical sounding. Go for an academic and dramatic feel, kind of like Dr. Orpheus's them from the Venture Brothers. And something simple and low tone and sinister with drums to play off Z's soft spoken and direct style and subterranean drow background.

    Hope that helps

    Ooh yes please drums. Timpanis everywhere!

    In my head the elves (any kind) always have touches of non-standard-orchestral instruments floating about by virtue of their strange elvishness. Though you probably can't get those in Noteflight.

    I retract my earlier statement about trying to write something. I tried. It's terrible. But I can still offer a voice in case someone wants to write something choral

    You'll want to go into the sharing tab in the upper right hand corner and make sure that the score is marked as public and that comments are enabled.

    So, I played some of these for my fiance, and he commented that Head to Head sounds a bit like Tusk, by Fleetwood Mac. Please tell me that was on purpose for the pun.

    Even that aside, I do like the way that one is put together. You've got Roy's really complicated tune, Thog's simple, goofy one, and then the two fight.

    Greysky's definitely my favorite, though.

    I think this one was very well done. I appreciate how you pieced it together.

    It also reminded me of the limitations of Noteflight, particularly the midi for the instruments. I have decided to continue working on my piece in a different program because I don't like the way the instruments on Noteflight sound. Of course this means I won't be able to share it here but... I really just don't like Noteflight.

    Just a tip, but the notations you're using for slurs are actually ties. It's a common mistake on Noteflight. Go into the menu with a crescendo on it, slurs should be in there.

    I like Arcane Foray- it fits well, I think. Also, I love the hemiola. I imagine that it would sound quite good performed live, and the parts aren't too hard. The violin one might be a bit of a pain to sightread (7th position and all), but it'd be doable by someone with, say, 4+ years playing (and good violinists are a dime a dozen).

    On a related note (heh), I've been sick for the past few days, but I'm feeling better so I'll probably start something new. Does anyone have suggestions/requests, or should I just roll a d841?

    I'd like to see a theme for Durkon or Belkar, myself. I tried the latter, but couldn't get it to work.
    I should probably add - I'm currently working on a theme for the Snarl, and dabbling with one for Julio Scoundrel (which I'll write lyrics for, if anyone wants to sing them). Just so we don't end up with duplicates.

    Although I'm a little confused as to why no one bothered to look at the previous piece I submitted earlier: A Playground Dream. Or renamed 'Lawful Good Heaven', depending on which one fits better

    Loved it. Is that live piano? It's certainly higher quality than most programs can manage. Writing for solo piano is hard. You've pulled it off well.
