To take it easy, and make tunes that’re free to use by anyone in the community.
Hey all, Chair here,
Here are the guidelines:
Your composition must be original
Please title your track and state the situation it’s intended for (e.g. Attack/Defense Theme, Enemy Phase Map Theme, Character Death Theme, etc.)
Do not concern yourself with any insertion limitations (including instrumentation), that’s up to the end-user
.midi file submissions are mandatory, you can include an mp3/wav/ogg version for sampling purposes
There aren’t many of us musically inclined/interested folk around these parts, but we can rise up and show 'em what’s what!
Obligatory: no tlp style minimugs
Also, pinging @Agro so he doesn’t miss this like the last music contest (or the one before that one)! Looking forward to hearing your beats you crusty old bag!
I’ll start the blitz off with an attack theme I cobbled together:
Hm I haven’t written any music since my son was born as all of my free time is when he’s sleeping in the carrier on me and I don’t want to wake him, but I guess I could try some headphones.
Well, I meant to make a cutscene “bad things are approaching, battle is imminent” theme a la Tension or An Unexpected Caller, but this is what I ended up making.
Wrote this one last year but never had the chance to properly mix it for GBA, which I’ve now done. It’s mostly original but the melody is obviously inspired by Wind Across the Plains. I imagined it as the music to replace the final chapter of Lyn mode. It is fairly customised so I wouldn’t recommend messing with it too much unless you know what you’re doing.
