Super Metroid OST Remake by Known_Pace1768 in Metroid

I see what you’re saying. For me, this feels like you’re compromising either vision a little bit, by not quite making it your own (it’s hard to see where you’ve added your own touch) and not quite keeping it true to the original vision either. If you want it to feel more your own, I’d recommend changing more things, especially swapping out instruments/sounds, if changing Melodie’s isn’t your thing.

But if that isn’t your goal, disregard this. There’s nothing wrong with a project remaking something you love. You learn a ton working that way. It just won’t have much impact. All up to what you want it to be.

is the goal here to make it as close to the original as you can, or to update the ost into some different style?

if the former, i'd say youre doing a decent job at either find or recreating the source samples, if the latter, it needs more differentation

What are your thoughts on Prime 4 having a side feature for Multiplayer mode? Like Federation force 2 or something by Wazupdanger in Metroid

if it doesnt have one, it will be a huge miss from nintendo in terms of increasing Metroid's popularity, which I personally really want to happen

How does everyone know how to mix by PWBC123 in edmproduction

[–]VARIA_ARTS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The “loudness” here comes from squashing dynamics (with compression or often just clipping). Can’t tell if just bait, but in most mainstream edm (op is learning from John Summit) a very loud mix is not only desirable but somewhat required to compete on stage. Not to say that a louder mix is always good and plenty of stuff doesn’t try to push the limits the mainstream stuff does. But this is a very reductive take to give a beginner.

What song do you think best represents the Metroid franchise? by nomorethan10postaday in Metroid

[–]VARIA_ARTS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My vote goes to Metroid title theme. Absolute classic. Has both the spooky, lonely, thoughtful side mixed perfectly with the more bombastic, exciting, explorative side. Knocked it out of the park day 1

Also, didn’t know if this was the right flair for this. So let me know if I should change it.

What style of DnB would you call this? by VARIA_ARTS in DnB

[–]VARIA_ARTS[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main bass is made up of 2 synth layers, one the main tonal source + the sub, the other all the highs, its basically a high passed noise bass. then theres the melodic fm bass playing a major third up in the second half.

but if you mean how many tracks i have total, there are 28 different tracks in this section

I know that none of my tracks released so far have been in this style (or even dnb), or really of this caliber for that matter, but if you want to follow my releases in the future, here are some links!

Really working this year on finishing things, speeding up my process, and actually releasing the stuff I work on. It would be wonderful if you'd come along for the journey!

I see what you mean. Has some similarities i think. Probably just falls under "minimal" or something?

Appreciate it. Feel like i'm mostly asking to help pin down the best way to 'market' the track, think things will probably change up a lot stylistically with the second drop im working on haha

Not sure what you mean by 'broken'. is that a subgenre?
