Black metal thread?
Nah who am I kidding, this place is full of weeaboos.

Hiya! So I hope this is the right board for this and whatnot, but ANYWAY.

So I'm an amateur electronic musician and for the month of September I'm going to be challenging myself to create a simple ambient song every day. The end goal is going to be putting an album up on Bandcamp and letting Yume Nikki fangame makers know that they can use the tracks in their games if they so wish.

Now, here's where you guys come in: I'm also taking requests. So if you need a track, or maybe even two, for your game, let me know! All I need to know is if you want the song to loop (Which is a good idea unless you want to use the song as a credits theme), what kind of instruments you'd like to see used, a description of the area it'll be used in would be nice for me, and maybe even what emotion you want the song to evoke. Anything to help me create the perfect song for you, right?

Three things to keep in mind. 1 I've never made a good piano melody or chords or anything, if it's piano I probably suck at it. 2 I usually have a hard time making my songs happy. 3 And I'm even new to the whole looping aspect of songs so I might mess up there! Of course you shouldn't let any of this stop you from requesting any of this stuff, these are just my personal downfalls. If you want me to challenge myself, go for it, that's what this is all about, right?

If you want examples of my work I'll link you to a few relevant songs of mine:

I think that's it, I'm sorry if this became a bit long winded! I look forward to seeing any requests if people get interested in my own little challenge.

Hey boardgoers,
I've just made another song for the love of Sabitsuki. It has a grand start, then turns frightening… oh so good! :D

You can find it here, it's called "Magnanimous."

Hey ubuuchons look what I found.

Apparently it's a software that adjusts the brightness/color of your screen depending on the time of day. This way when it's late your computer screen won't completely kill your eyes, as well as fool you into thinking you're not tired because of the brightness of your screen. Just plug in your coordinates and go. You even have the option for a slow transition so it's not so sudden.

The orange color was a little annoying at first, but it really does seem to help my eyes. The only problem with it is that if you want to uninstall it you have to manually get rid of all the registry keys and program files since the uninstall doesn't do jack shit. That and there can be some issues with fullscreen programs like Yume Nikki/fangames, though there's an option to disable it for an hour.
It's definitely a good idea though.

Remix of the ending ^^

Hi Mad(o)men/women/Bleeding Triangular Prisms,

I recently made a song sampling my favorite of the Yume Nikki BGMs. There's a build up to the main section looping BGM_012 nicely, so if you're patient, you'll find it to be really good, I promise! :D

It's the only track on there for now, titled "Yume need help"

Scuba get!

I made sheet music for the popular YN MAD Alien invasion Theory tegaki stuff - enjoy

Okay Uboachan, are you up to the task!?

I need a track for a project (StarCraft Brood War mapmod) I am working.

Absolute requirements:
-instrumental (vocalists are fine, intelligible English is not)
-dark

General qualities necessary:
-very dark
-very depressing
-filled with despair
-makes you want to kill yourself
-needs to have a bit of weight behind it, can't be entirely softly played piano (might except). This is for an action RPG like Demon's Souls or Dark Souls. ← very important

I don't know if here's the right place, but….

h ubuu

Some of you might remember in the archives before Seisatsu came along, I posted an EP and a handful of midi tracks. I've since been slaving away on a full length, and it was originally going to feature a vocalist but she dropped out.

The LP is called City Lights and you can get it here http://pradius.bandcamp.com/album/city-lights there's no obligation to pay for it, but you can be that one cool guy if you want to be. Genre is Jazz/IDM/Hip Hop or whatever idk it's ambient and glitchy with influences.

I'm also thinking if anyone wants to add vocals to one of the tracks, or add a jazz solo I'll make an extra ep featured on those tracks with the feats.
