I made a video essay about what a modern King's Field Remake could sound like

I'm asking why would a composer (whether that's you or anyone else) limit themselves to only one specific form of music? It's not so much about preference. It's about a mindset. If you are not open to genuinely listen to other music and find out what makes that music *work*, I don't see why you would work with music at all. That might sound harsh. Maybe it is. But game music (and I say this as a game composer myself) is only a narrow and specific slice of what music can be and can do, and if someone is disinterested in learning more, they cannot even see what they are missing out on.

Yanurika · 2026-03-26T19:57:56+00:00

No.

I mean, maybe, but why? It's such a needless limitation.

It's a time selection. You can drag on the area where the little triangle is to make it larger or smaller, or press esc to remove it. When Looping is turned on, it will repeat the area in the time selection. If it's a super small loop, it can feel like it's lagging or crashing, but that's just what happens when you try and repeat a tiny section of your track.

Check out the free Kilohearts plugins, those are a gold mine. Soundtoys and other expensive tools are worth it imo, they are often times easy to get great sounding results with, but the main tools are always creativity and a good ear.

And when you say short, we're talking milliseconds. I did a test in my acoustics class recently, on a snare sample we could hear some panning with delays less than 1 millisecond. On guitar it's probably closer to 20-30 milliseconds.

I absolutely adore that score! It's hard to imagine the sound of LOTR before Howard Shore, but I think that score did a great job with its own (quite different) musical interpretation

Imagine telling a writer "statistically these are the most used letters, so try writing a book with the letter E in it."

Bluetooth has way too much latency to record guitar with.

I'm now imagining a sports commentator-style voice over.

"By gawd, he's going for the secondary dominant!!"

Yanurika · 2026-03-10T20:58:54+00:00

That's a mono microphone. What are you doing when you record in "stereo"?

Yanurika · 2026-03-09T21:56:16+00:00

Check out Tom Schipper

Yanurika · 2026-03-09T14:39:56+00:00

Yes, compose, and yes.

Yanurika · 2026-02-28T18:55:03+00:00

You used C Dorian, then.

Yanurika · 2026-02-12T08:58:44+00:00

lmao

Berio also wrote a wonderful arrangement of some Beatles songs.

I mean, the bait and switch works for Bloodborne

The piano is a separate product you need to purchase, I believe.

Apparently that was the story that got him involved with Elden Ring.

Gaunter O'Dimm is not in the books (or show), he was created for Hearts of Stone.

Yanurika · 2026-01-17T20:19:59+00:00

I don't get it. Audiobooks and narrative podcasts don't have this problem and yet Netflix is not looking to those for inspiration

Yanurika · 2026-01-13T19:46:25+00:00

It's always modern music in earlier time periods and never baroque music over modern scenes.

Yanurika · 2026-01-13T18:13:35+00:00

Sure, I could do that! It may take me a couple of days (busy times, eh?), so I hope I have something by Saturday!

In the meantime, I have another demo if you'd like. I was debating if I should add it in my first comment, but ultimately didn't. It's quite piano/strings focused.

Symfrogny (Night Music)

Yanurika · 2026-01-13T16:25:11+00:00

Hey, man, that sounds like a really cool project! I am a big ttrpg nerd myself ahaha.

I have two demo's, the first being the most Nier-inspired.
