Ardi's Soundcloud + Music for Wonder's War

Recommended Posts

I've started a soundcloud now, and I decided to post some of the music I have made for Wonder's War in it.

 

https://soundcloud.com/ardaceus

 

There are three tracks on my RSS,

 

02 - Melody of the Musicbox

Takes place in the Majorelle Caverns, meant to have an echo feel and sound somewhat like a half broken musicbox.

 

03 - Creepy Crawlers

Is a theme for a boss, can you guess what kind of boss it is for??

 

06 - Song of Ether

Who is Ether, what is Ether?

 

I didn't post many because I don't want to give away too much of my game and the music that I'm making for it. I have about 7 tracks of the album that they are all a part of, all which is to be only used in my game.

 

So I was wondering what you guys thought of this music, I just want an opinion and how it makes you feel.

 

 

P.S. I might reupload Creepy Crawlers because I have an idea to make it a lot cooler.

Curiosity time [not that I listened yet, at my grandmother's house] but...what do you use to make the music? 

It's great you're sharing your progress :D Soundcloud is apparently useful.

I use garageband and audacity mainly. I use audacity for the live recording part of my music making for when I do any saxophone or piano part, or a sound effect. I edit it in Audacity, then I take it into garageband where I add in the good parts by selectively adding in each note at a specific time. The process takes me a while, but I like what I end up with.

I will have to look into Audacity one day, since I don't have mac and thus no garageband.

But I am going to have to make a fan club in your honor, good sir. Because i'm already addicted to listening to this stuff.

Encore please.

WARNING: I know very little about music, so there's only so much I can say that would help you. If I even just knew the proper terms for any parts of songs, I might be able to help more.

 

#1 (DON 02). Sounds good. Like part of a Metroid Prime bgm kinda lol. Not much else to say except that I expected the music to pick up at a certain point like it would in MP, but obviously that's not a bad thing since I doubt that's what you were going for.

#2 (DON 03) From the name, I can definitely tell it's for a spider boss lol. But...at 24sec in and beyond, it doesn't sound all that great to me. Sounds like someone sitting in their room playing with the electric guitar mode on their electric keyboard to be completely honest. Unfortunately, I don't know how to tell you to improve it. Sorry :( Sounds like it would be good with more instruments or chords at certain parts, but idk.

#3 (DON 06) Reminds me a tiny bit of Xenosaga at first...could be because of the word "Ether" though. Later turns into something out of Ocarina of Time. That's a pretty high compliment honestly.

#4 (DON 08) Starts out sounding like the start of a Metroid Prime boss. I feel like I need to start scannin' shit. But that part of the song continues longer than I expected lol. That's not a bad thing, but what it turns into isn't as good. Not bad, but not the best. No clue what kind of constructive criticism to give :(

They all start out great, but some of them have middles that aren't as good as their beginnings. These would all be awesome with just a little extra work :D

 

edit: Just saw that you want to reupload Creepy Crawlers. I'm looking forward to that :D

I just released 3 more songs for the game!

 

https://soundcloud.com/ardaceus

 

01 - Greatness Awaits https://soundcloud.com/ardaceus/don-01-ardaceus-greatness-awaits

Greatness awaits all those who journey.

 

08 - Wisps https://soundcloud.com/ardaceus/don-08-ardaceus-wisps

In the mistwoods... they hunt.

 

13 - Abyss https://soundcloud.com/ardaceus/don-13-ardaceus-abyss

It's cold down there.

(Abyss is a quiet one, so if you have bad hearing, you might need to turn up your volume...)

 

 

I'm still playing around with Creepy Crawlers and I am playing with the soundboard for Abyss.

Got 3 new tracks + 1, one of which, you can use in your own game!

 

 

07 - Tale of the Wind https://soundcloud.com/ardaceus/07-tale-of-the-wind

A story lost in the wind, waiting to be found.

 

14 - Silence https://soundcloud.com/ardaceus/don-14-ardaceus-silence

Prelude to insanity.

 

Free to use - Desolation https://soundcloud.com/ardaceus/desolation

I was just playing around for sounds, and I thought this soundscape sounded cool, I might do more things like these as I have another one like this in production. But feel free to download this scape if you would want to use it in any of your projects, just say that I made it in the credits and everything is cool ;).

 

03 Remix - Creepy Crawlers (Bit Mix) https://soundcloud.com/ardaceus/creepy-crawlers-bit-mix

I tried to remix this song, but none really made it quite as good as the first time around, but when I was playing around, I discovered that different instruments being used made something pretty cool.
