I'm an artist/musician. My main programs are FL Studio 8, Macromedia Flash, and MS Paint. My style involves shading with checkers (Not dithering), althought I don't really like checkered clothing, those are for posers. Love making NES art and music.

A little over the place, but it's great.
I'd like to know what program you're using, the guiar is pretty clear. Is it Guitar Port, or a POD by Line 6?
Nice anyway, I look forward to seeing your stuff around...
P.S: The tone in the beginning sounds like "Got You Where I Want You" by "The Flys"

Actually, this program is Sony Acid Studio 7.

It's great. Some of the strings sound a little unnatural, but what do you expect. Great instruments and beats.

Ha, Star Fox. My favorite game of all time.
Well job on the chorus, but it seems to get repetitive. Another angelic lead, or a following chorus of a lower octave could help.

this was just a quick little loop I made and at the time I made it I was also useing the demo of FL Studio. I will probably go back some time soon and redo this one cause I really like how it sounds.

This has a gentle and soft feeling to it. The only thing that ruins it is the main chime lead, because it sort of kills the naturality and flow of the melodies. Sounds like something in Zelda: Twilight Princess, though, and that's a good thing.
As for a name, I'm puzzled. Tranquil Fiction?
Author's Response:
Tranquil Fiction...I like that. Thanks for the review that was really quick =)
Not gonna change the name quite yet but that is a really good name. Its not from Zelda tho I do hope to use it or have some one else use it in a RP game. Perhaps as a dark cave scene...LOL Any way im not sure what you mean about the main chime exactly but I think I may know what your talking about tho so will see about fixing it.
Again tho thanks for the review I hope you come back to see my other songs.

Its supposed to be out of tune, yo, you got to appreciate accidentals and such.
It isn't music if you follow a scale and everything sounds like it always has.

That's some pretty solid composition, I enjoyed it.
By the way, what program are you using? Anvil Studio?
Anything that composes MIDIs should not be in a professional composer's belt. I started off making MIDI's, and finally moved on to FL Studio 8, the aforementioned program. FL stands for Fruity Loops, and is not to be confused with Flash 8. FL Studio 8 is a hefty costing program, though, and most of the people on here most likely have gotten it free via BitTorrent (I don't reccomend the illegal way though). If you continue to use MIDI avoid anything above an eigth note because it gets repetitive.
I don't know any good FREE programs to be honest, your best bet to make decent music for free would be a Tracker, but those produce NES music and are EXTREMELY difficult.

At the point I made this I was using a TRIAL version of a cheap $20 random midi maker... I used hamienet to change this from midi to mp3... I'm thinking about reuploading this with some better sounds that I got with a program called Cakewalk Music Creator lately...
And I'm not a professional composer =) I'm a thirteen year old child lol

Lot o' improvement. I came across this and remember I left a review for the previous version, and you did good this time.
The synth seems more subtle, it just seems like the second chorus would sound better with the "boom boom boom, chink, cha-ching" .
Nice thouuuugh.

It's Radiohead, the "H" is no capitolized I don't think.
Your voice is soothing, but you jump the gun and your voice sort of can't sustain the tone sometimes. Same with your guitar-playing.
I'm not a fan of the early Radiohead stuff, even though I enjoy this song, but I can say you do a fair job. Your title subtracts from your credibility as a serious artist, in my opinion.

I promised I'd check this out once up.
Nice eerie feeling, and great job at keeping it consistent and reminescent. A great listen
