Are you planning on adding a "working" list? So we know how many members/projects you are working on?
Just an idea. ^^

I wanted to ask about non-game related music... would you consider composing a non-commercial (just for personal use/enjoyment) song if requested? And would it be at the same rate?

(+1 to topic's attention stat.)

Jonnie19

Oct 5 2012, 04:55 AM

I would be willing to write a piece of music for personal enjoyment, for that matter it would' be better to contact me with more details.

That is a good plan

It's been a few days now...So I can bump this with my first Commercial Piece.
This was written for Kingdom by Lato.
Legions Sorrow (not available for download!!!)

It tells the tale of a Legions march to war. The sorrow he faces as he reaches his fate. At least that is what I was going for. Feel free to comment and critique my work. I love hearing what others think.

Thank you very much

I am currently trying to work with UTAU and create some Anime related pieces to add to my collection. I must admit it isn't the easiest software to work with but I'll get there

This sounds amazing, you sure have some talent. My only concern is on a video game side, with that ending and delay in the beginning, I'm concerned about the loop in the music being obvious. I mean it's pretty long so as long as it's not like a map BGM it should be fine, though.

Jonnie19

Oct 12 2012, 09:01 AM

As far as i know, I think that Lato is using it as some form of scene, which is what that piece was created for. Quite alot of my music is made for Scenes rather than map BGM

X-M-O

Oct 12 2012, 03:12 PM

Your compositions are passionate and well-designed, and this one for Lato's game is no different!
I thoroughly enjoy checking your latest music to see what new compositions you've made, and I've yet to be disappointed!
Don't stop making music!

Wow...thank you, that means alot

Nice to see that my music is actually being listened to again...It's been quite a while since i've had a compliment as lovely as that

I seem to spend more time restarting my tracks rather than enjoying them myself

(Way too hard on my music.It appears to be paying off though which is always a good thing

I'll have a few more for you in a couple of days, just gotta finish the Resource Race then I can get to really going for it in the Music Department

Jonnie19

Oct 15 2012, 08:48 AM

Update.
One of my favourite genres to write for has to be the Horror Genre....Here is an example of my horror piece that i wrote for Tryadine Effect. Can't help but love that project.

Abandoned Hospital (2 Versions)

I love freaky music! ^^
The timing of the instruments is phenomenal, and the melody is strangely happy. Very neat!

I was going for a kinda...Silent Hill-esque style piece.
The interesting fact is the midi tune that I used, was designed for use in a Reggae piece, I fiddled and rearranged it to become more of a Horror style piece, with a slightly cheery undertone.

Oct 15 2012, 10:03 AM

I don't know what Silent Hill is, but I guess I didn't get that feeling with the music? D=
It's definitely worth listening to, regardless of what it does or doesn't sound like. =D

Jonnie19

Oct 16 2012, 03:23 PM

And another track for you guys to enjoy:
Anime Theme: Kingdom OST

This is my first "Anime" styled track, not normally what i do, but I think overall was a success. feedback loved and appreciated.

Ndoelicious

Oct 16 2012, 03:54 PM

Mister, I've been asking around, but nobody answers...
Well, what about if I use another game BGMs in my project, is it allowed?

As for the musics, well, it IS good!
But it's not an anime style to my ear, more like a Dynasty Warriors/Warrior Series BGS, which suits perfectly! ^^

Jonnie19

Oct 16 2012, 04:05 PM

I completely forgot to reply to your question sir

I'll PM you...

I must admit it was damn difficult to create a "proper" anime theme. Without the use of a Japanese Lyricist without them, it's rather difficult

Vocaloids just wouldn't have fit this song and not only does it not work on W7...or my laptop. It's difficult to get around the legality of using them.

Haha, it's okay, as long as you answer it in the end ^^
SInce I have tons of them available in my project lol

Mhmm, even an absurd Japs could work greatly, such as the work on Ar-Tonelico!
If it serves as theme-BGM, or battle BGM, it'll be good ^^, depends on the game, though~

Jonnie19

Oct 16 2012, 04:12 PM

Well, it's a theme music track...I have no idea tbh i think it was a theme Lato wanted me the theme

I am currently writing an awesome battle theme, with something that is severely lacking in Battle Themes these days...

ROCK GUITARS!

Ndoelicious

Oct 16 2012, 04:26 PM

Yeah, rock guitars!!!
Tom Morello and his latest work for the Hollywood surely bring live to the recent action movies

I can't wait for the guitar effects!(Like the old Digimon battle-bgm)
And let the game explodes!

That anime theme is really catchy, sounds like something a jamtronica band would do. Which is good :3 Can't wait to hear that battle theme of yours.

Funny you say that...It's just been finished and is currently being uploaded to Soundcloud for you guys to listen

I am really quite proud of this one....It's rather different. It's no where near near a standard battle theme, or even a boss one....HEHEHE
It's a Rock piece...

Not only that it has a slightly strange use of instruments, instruments you wouldn't really see work together as well as I feel it does in this piece

Without further ado...Here it is:

Kingdom OST: Boss Battle Track

X-M-O

Oct 18 2012, 01:44 PM

I love this one! O_O
When the strings come in sharp at 40 seconds, I was totally in love with the song; it was definitely the highlight.

It actually was a BIG risk adding the strings in....It took me awhile to actually keep it in there, I kept changing it, over and over again with different samples/tunes ideas. Not one of them worked.
It was in the end down to the developer to say whether he wanted it or not. He definitely seemed to like it

NB: Just to inform people that the tracks to do with Kingdom will be removed and turned into demo's from tomorrow onwards due to a request from the developer who hired me. Can't blame him really

However as long as Jens doesn't mind I'll be keeping the full tracks for his song up.

X-M-O

Oct 18 2012, 02:12 PM

Aw... Oh well, I can understand that! ^^

Yeah, sometimes you get something just right but then edit it until it is just not right, lol. I know the feeling. ><
Either way, it turned out great and I was pleased to hear it and fall in love with it. XD

MrGuy0250

Oct 18 2012, 02:13 PM

The strings coming in where indeed a nice touch, as X-M-O said. I feel like it doesn't really pick up enough to be a boss theme, though. It's not like it's sluggish, but considering it's purpose, a bit more drive would be nice in my opinion. Regardless of that, it' still a good piece of music.

Jonnie19

Oct 18 2012, 02:30 PM

This was originally written as a standard Battle Theme, and it was what I originally had in mind upon writing this track...But it was a bit too heavy in the developers opinion. So it became his Boss Battle Theme.

Jonnie19

Oct 21 2012, 04:32 PM

Another track for you guys to listen to and critique.
I'm currently working on a Fantasy Music Pack. The packs will be available to purchase in the near future.

FMC: Small Village BGM

X-M-O

Oct 21 2012, 10:35 PM

I love the melody lines, and whilst you have great music in this one, you really don't go anywhere with it. =\
I know it's a small village theme, but without percussion you have to do something more to the song.
I do love the idea though, and the different melodies put together. ^^

Jonnie19

Oct 22 2012, 06:08 AM

Thanks for the feedback X-M-O.

Always great to be told I needed to add something, which is exactly what I needed to kinda ensure this track is as high quality as possible.

I was trying to go as natural as physically possible, to avoid the "synth" feeling. I was debating adding in some form of hand percussion such as a bongo drums etc...I'll edit this post later with the updated track.

Not to disagree with your comment, but for me it would depend on how it's used:

It wouldn't work well with a medievalish style town in a sword/sorcery rpg, but I can see this fitting with a city theme for a futuristic / sci-fi styled game, where the character is walking through part of the main district, with neon flashing lights advertising tatoos, pubs, shady deals, and other business ventures; not really a menacing part of town, a bit upbeat and energetic, but not so much that it's really bustling, either, but certainly quite more lively than a quaint countryside village.

At the same time, the track is a bit too short, which means it will easily get repetitive if the area that is playing this is exceptionally large. My recommendation is to flesh it out a bit more, extending the track to 3 or 4 minutes with different pitches, or keep this dedicated to a small area of town that can be explored and crossed relatively fast.

Wow...I have never seen that track as that before...

It was designed for a small village...I closed my eyes, which is how I wrote my tracks, and I see a small village.
For those who have played Mists Of Naladia, there is a town there which is kinda similar to how I based this track, as an Ode to the track written by Kevin Macleod. Completely different theme and actual music I will add, but similar feeling. I'll try and find the track and will show you guys

Oct 22 2012, 09:52 AM

Everybody hears music in different ways.

Jonnie19

Oct 22 2012, 10:06 AM

That is very very true, which is great because it means that my tracks have more than one use, which is what i'm hoping to achieve.
Okay so I've changed the track slightly:
1. I am now using an ensamble of French Horns instead of a single one which gives that track a slightly fuller feeling, perhaps more matching to a town theme.
2. Added a variation of the tune for the french horn, to ensure that although there is some repetition it is broken up ever so slightly to avoid people finding the track overly repetitive.
3. Added in some minimal percussion from a basic bongo beat.
4. Added in a staccato Cello Rhythm, just in the background to flesh out the track more.

FMC: Small Village/Town Theme
EDIT:

And yet another track WIP I've added:

Robot March

X-M-O

Oct 22 2012, 11:41 AM

All right, so I like the small village theme a great deal more now. ^^
I would recommend another change though, primarily to the French horn ensemble. It currently sounds rather loud for a small village, so to balance that, but maintain the full sound of an ensemble, you might want to try taking the French horn into three parts (one part being exactly as it is, but slightly quieter; one part being an octave higher than the first; one part being an octave lower than the first).
Hope that makes sense. Either way, it came out much better and less repetitive this time (though the repetitive bit has now become the French horn melody). =]

The Robot March slowly gets better and better, but then it ends! Ah! XD
It's a WIP, so I know it's still being worked on, but I would recommend having a deceptive cadence just a few seconds after the current song's ending.

Jonnie19

Oct 22 2012, 03:38 PM

Okay, so I think I've finished The Robot March....HOWEVER...Exclusively for XMO, and named after the Director herself I introduce to you all now:

The XMO March

You wanted an imperfect Cadence there we go

X-M-O

Oct 22 2012, 03:58 PM

You did an amazing job!

I wasn't sure you knew what that even meant, lol.
Now I have two songs named after me. XD
(Now you should do an X-M-O Ballad; it should resemble a strange, and possibly spooky, marriage between Someone Like You and Hey, Soul Sister.)

Oh, since you've updated the Robot March, have you updated it online so I can hear it? ^^

Jonnie19

Oct 22 2012, 04:27 PM

The only difference between your track and the Robot March is the Cadence.
(I did a Diploma in music....I will point out that you killed me and GayBrownies with that Cadence. As trained musicians we hate imperfect Cadences.
GayBrownies is refusing to listen to the XMO March

(she hates this sort of cadence

)

Also...I think I might be able to accept your challenge watch this space

X-M-O

Oct 22 2012, 04:31 PM

I know many musicians, and they are usually unable to pull it off (and I only know a few that don't absolutely hate it, lol), so I expected that.
I have always felt that it is my job to move people out of their comfort zones. Of course, as long as you are able to do it well, then there is no need to challenge you with something like that.

Ah, so you didn't make any other changes to the WIP march?
Cool. =]

Oh yes, accept my challenge! O_O

GayBrownies93

Oct 22 2012, 04:34 PM

I do like the pieces that your doing, so damn catchy but I cannot for the life of me listen to the imperfect cadence version of the robot march.... Have to sing the last note in my head drives me crazy lol. The anime theme just makes me dance like I do when I play Sonic and I love the head bop dance

Just out of curiosity, do you ever plan on making a career out of composing or teaching in the music field?

Jonnie19

Oct 23 2012, 12:42 AM

I already teach guitar to a few people as a side job to get extra money. I've always wanted to become a music teacher though it's just being able to afford the qualification, and also the time to take the qualification.

Here's a quick few minute track I made for a Halloween competition on RMN.

Slender:The Chase.ogg

Oct 23 2012, 10:04 AM

That Halloween competition song is beautiful! ^^
I love the pause at ~30 seconds; it adds a bit of character and creepiness. =D
It ends nicely too.
I think you should have included a random bloody scream somewhere in there.

What place did you earn in the competition? =]

Jonnie19

Oct 23 2012, 10:26 AM

It's a game competition

and it's still going on. I've got seven days to create a Halloween Related game. So I'm doing a Slenderman style game.
I love creating Horror tracks, it's probably the easiest tracks for me to create

Jonnie19

Nov 7 2012, 11:07 AM

I'm back again with another demo of a track

Small Village (Acoustic Guitar)
It's something abit different...again

Just investigating a few different ideas
