Ruined Sanctum of the Storm Queen
By hypnogram on January 24, 2018 10:45 amBack on my LSDj shit again. Somehow I wrote something under 120 bpm without eventually working myself into double time. So I'll take that as a success. I tried some ideas musically I hadn't really explored much, which was super fun. I also limited my percussion entirely to the noise channel, which I had never really done either. I was actually trying to avoid percussion entirely, but I couldn't help myself. Some day, I guess.
Doing all the finishing beyond actually tracking the song myself continues to be interesting due to my inexperience with it, but it's been fun experimenting. I try to keep it to a minimum usually, but I did do a little creative EQing in a few places here, but it's nothing more extreme than what I would do in a live situation anyway. I'm rambling.

DUDE this is slammin'. the noise kit gives it such an OST feel. like "WHAT GAME IS THIS FROM?" this song gave me chills. very feelsy and well scripted.
Yeah i really enjoy the percussion. Its fun to limit yourself in same way sometimes. Really like the end result.
YES! Evocative track! That major/minor switching in the beginning works great, and the dynamics are impressive af. Later rhythms as well.
You should do more lower bpm stuff, this is great! Could have been on Ubiktune's Equilibrium (though that's NES), and I don't say that lightly 
Limiting your self to noise channel perc definitely gives it a Neil Baldwin / Follin flair. I really dig it!
Thank you! I'm definitely a big fan of both, so that's awesome

Thank you! It was fun to use the platform to make something actually vgm sounding for a change.

Glad you enjoyed it The idea of further imposing limits on such an already limited instrument is kinda funny now that I think about it.

Oh wow, thank you so much That means a lot!
I find the lower bpm to be liberating as you have a lot of space to dump creative concrete in. Sixteenths tend to disappear in the higher speeds.
