This is an awesome piece. Except for the first stanza, which feels a little dark for the opening for Lil'Pip, the song fits quite well with the character. well played.
I really like how the music sort of "evolves" as it goes, mirroring Pip's development as she continues about the Wasteland. Very neat.
Think you could make a theme for Calamity? You already have one for Pip, Velvet, and Steelhooves, it would only make sense to come full-circle. Plus he's my favorite character, so I'd like to see what you could make of him.
@Savci008 In this case it was the situation that brought you closer to the characters, and that itself was extremely heart wrenching. I don't want to give away plot points to the story, but it was well written enough that the situation had me shedding (manly) tears.
Again, this is wonderful stuff. I actually think it sounds kinda sad, considering the end of the last chapter. Again, well done. I'm totally buying this stuff when it's finished :)
I feel the overpowering urge to salute to this music, it's that inspiring. Or it could be the slightly military trumpet fanfare commanding respect, either's good, I think it's both.
I can't help it. I keep coming back.
This song is absolutely amazing, and I can't stop listening. it saddens me greatly that after all this time, you don't have more views
@psychgoth I'm not the original commenter, so I can't speak for them, but after a friend got me to read the Spin-off "Project Horizons" I can rightly say it's absolutely fantastic, with perhaps the single most heart wrenching scene I have EVER read in Chapter 6 (I think it was)... it's up to chapter 22, and the author has done a fantastic job on it.
@psychgoth The Project Horizons side-fic is an awesome addition to the main story. I'd definitely recommend taking a look at it if you haven't already. It's worth the time investment.
On a side note, I haven't subscribed to you yet, and I'm not really sure why.
*subbed*
This song sucks me right back in to that masterpiece of a story. I wish I could have the MoM come and take away all my memories of it so I could experience it all over again.
This song is... there is just no words. You have created a true work of art with this song. Thank you psychgoth. You made a masterpiece soundtrack to go with a master piece story. I tip my hat to both you and Kkat. Thank you.
@psychgoth
My solotion was (not very suprising) more ponies! :D
I think my shell finally cracked when I read Out in the Cold by EsperDerek. Best shipfic ever, imo^^
What program did you use? I can't seem to get clear sounds like this no matter how hard I try through FL, even the instruments are crystal and I, am, ENVIOUS
Compared to the mixes I make, this track you made is godlike in comparison. lol Anyways, with the names you given me, I can look into pairing what i have with them, it would cost me an arm and a leg,(maybe an organ too >.>) to get, not to mention the strain it could have on my piddly laptop. but at least I can invest in the programs and learn their nuances before getting a better PC. Thanks
Just checked the Bandcamp album. I'm left wondering which songs are FoE-related?
I mean, obviously "I Will Fight By Your Side" is, but "To The TARDIS" isn't.
So are we left to wonder amongst ourselves which songs are related to which fandom, or...?
@nerfheardingfuzzball
Probably the same thing that allows spoken words too. Subtle audible nuances that inflict ideas on our minds.
I always use music to help me think up ideas of fics. Just close my eyes, turn up the volume, and try to imagine the events unrolling with the music.
@psychgoth
Length requirements, chapter on DA is 1000 words, but EDaily need to be at least 2-3K. So DA chapters get paired up and submitted to EDaily in one go.
It's doing well so far, 4.8 stars.
Oh Littlepip, sometimes I simultaneously love and hate you. The somewhat "corrupted" or "imperfect" personality makes her so much deeper. At one moment, I could be cursing her for having a thing for Mentals, and then rooting for her as she does what I hope is the right choice.
And for where I'm at in the story, three-weeks has probably filled her experience with more killing than any one person should go through... I wonder how even motley raiders can't take someone fresh out of a Stable...
@psychgoth Ha ha, they're a load of short pieces put together for ease of listening! But yes, there's a lot of them...=P
I look forward to whoever's theme you do next!
@psychgoth yeah, There's too much music that just doesn't inspire anything meaningful.
I wonder what it is about us humans that lets sound and melody have such a profound and direct influence on our emotions?
@psychgoth
Well, maybe not sad. More like... it makes me kinda sad to hear, because of what Pip realized what she must do, and what the wasteland will lose because of that (yes, I know I'm being vague. Trying to be non-spoilerific)^^
WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH...Woah...Woah. I'm pretty gosh darn sure Dawn of War has the most heroic themes ever, Starcraft is a feeble attempt to master the glory!
@Zentenski It sounds sad? I mean it IS in the key of G minor so it is a "sad" key but I feel it is more lively than sad. Even the ending "ta-daaa!" is a big-flank G major chord lol. And I greatly appreciate your willingness to buy my music ^^.
Littlepip is such an interesting character. She is truly a kindhearted soul, but the story highlights how she needs to deal with her own inner demons to get where she needs to, and how she is fully aware about how she is being torn apart by the good and bad spectra of her own personality.
What I really like about this music is that it really does seem to highlight that inner struggle that Littlepip has, while still contributing to the overall dark theme of the story. Props to you!
@CristianApostol Coming soon a Bagpipe Brony channel near you. (there better be only one Bagpipe Brony channel near you lol). His theme is kinda hard to write seeing as what I'm envisioning can't be easily done with virtual instruments.
@gurglelord I have never played Fallout and I don't think I will either. I would be disappointed after reading Fallout Equestria. And worry not! Bandcamp albums coming soon ^^
@rowen211 I don't listen to much old rock lol. Except the ocassional KISS or Journey song. Pretty much mid 80s-up ^^. I don't know any Bon Jovi besides that one 'Raise your hands!" song from Spaceballs xD
Nein!
That should go to the composer who wrote the music for the IGN Starcraft II promo.
And then Hans Zimmer for the intro theme to Crysis 2. Most epic thing ever but also due to placing it within the context of the intro sequence.
@DrDissonance1 Lol thank Dr.D, I...must confess I've not found the time to completely listen to your FoE scores ^^;. The time on the Youtube videos makes me nervous lol.
Are you kidding? This is a crappily mixed track. Do yourself a favor and invest in a DAW meant for more than just beats. Get Cubase, or Logic if you want to write both orchestral and electronic. Once you've got that, get some good orchestral libraries. The Kontakt library and maybe East West Symphonic Gold would be enough to start you off. These will be basic until you can afford more luxurious libraries though.
No, if that's the case then buying the programs would be a waste of money. You need a high performance computer to work with music seriously. I (went cheap) bought a 2012 Quad core macbook pro and put 16 gigs of RAM. I also bought a 2 Terabyte external hardrive with firewire 800 capability. I should have gotten Thunderbolt, but I couldn't afford it. You need to keep your library samples on an external hardive because the strain will destroy your internal drive.
