I make NES style music, and this shit is so fucking badass. I wish I could make this good music some day. Even if it will take several generations of musical training. Which it probably will.
@Okazarak There's band called Machinae Supremacy which made the soundtrack for the arcade-style game Jets'n'Guns (search "jets n guns theme"). The soundtracks sound very similar to this, they've classified the genre as "Sid Metal".
@Verteros Im 80% sure that its a picture of a boy licking the electrical parts of an NES cartridge (like the chips and boards on the bottom you know what i mean) and the saliva is making electricity go off lol
Mixing sounds a bit thin yes, and bass is quite clearly in the background,but I think it served perfectly the arena acoustics (purpose, don't know :). Metal songs (including some of the electronic tunes as well) -specially the doublebass parts -get very thick because of the arena acoustic.You can avoid this by mixing the song like this. Truth is,it mess up the final mix quite seriously. Beautiful thing is, people usually recognize good tunes, and don't give a shit about mixing and mastering :)
I agree with crocz about the mix. It sounds like there's no bass guitar at all which should be pretty obvious in this kind of music. Also the mix is very dry. Composition is solid but I did'nt found it very interesting. This could really use some strings and other stuff to spice up the sound. Now it's basically just drums, guitar and couple of square waves. Also could had used some cool chipmusic tricks like arpeggios and stuff so it would actually sound like NES :) Overall It's OK.
Crowdpleaser maybe, but so what? Isn't it all about entertainment? I mean... do GRiMM have to do songs, wich don't please the crowd? You said the same comment on my song(2nd place),that it was a crowdpleaser too. Well, I must say I'm glad if it's. Feels good, if someone likes. And for bonus: It was incredibly fun (10h) to make that song. :)
I must say crocz (or Noby), you sound a bit resentful with your comments. If this song was far from the best of the combo, why people voted it to win?
@Zeitball Ah so you are Aikapallo I suppose. There's a difference between a song that pleases the crowd, and a crowdpleaser song. This song is interesting at all, similar tracks have been made especially for the assembly music compos for years and they always seem to get to the top. The compo is so predictable it's not even worth particapating really. I'm not resentful for this particular issue, I'm just a resenful bastard :D I don't think the assembly public knows shit about music, out of chars
@crocz Correct, aikapallo here! :) I'd like to hear what's your vision of good music compo? Should they organize one compo for every different genre or what? Own competition for underground stuff?(with that I mean "out of charts" -kind of music).Or, if you like oldskool stuff, isn't there a compo for those pieces? Or are we all doomed already?
I like your honest attitude! I'm too a resentful bastard in many cases. But I like to discuss things with people and hear their justifiable opinions :)
@Zeitball Yea the assembly music compo is pretty much doomed imo. The compo itself is fine, but the type of releases is completely different if you compare it to an actual demoparty. The audience is so gullible and to me it seems people constantly try to take advantage of that. I'd actually though like separate compo for acoustic and electronic music but I don't think it would work in practice as it would be tricky to define on which category the song would fit.
@Zeitball btw thank you for being understanding, most times when I open my mouth in the web people will go totally apeshit :D. You are probably the first person who seems to appriciate honesty :p I thought I was being pretty justified about my opinion though, or maybe not, it doesn't always appear so clear when it's just typed here as a comment.
@crocz Yes, now you've been very justified, but if you just write "crowdpleaser", the description doesn't sound very reasonable :) Anyway, I have to say I don't take scene so seriously, that I would want to judge things so steeply. I've been in assembly every year from 1997 and been following the scene almost 20 years and ofc I have to admitt, it's not like it used to be, but I think it's just a inevitable change. I'm glad they still organize oldskool and extreme compos. Echoes from the past :)
@crocz What comes to taking advantage of the crowd, I think you're skating on thin ice, cos you really don't know people's ambitions and goals. I can ofc only defend my own territory, but it feels stupid and pointless to do it, so I won't :) Anyway, I wish luck to your career and If (in spite of all) you're paricipating I hope your tunes will succeed even better than this year.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Incerdibly cliched crowdpleaser, and of top of that it's badly mixed, almost no bass at all and no punch in drums. Overall very dull song and far from the best of the compo.
@crocz I know your lieing, this is a completely awesome song. You obviously know nothing about good 8 bit music. Your probably too used to the crap music they throw out there nowadays... This is awesome, no question.
@Collin8843 First of all the term "8bit music" is completely retarded, but aside from that, I don't think you are in no position to tell me I don't know anything about music. I'm a music producer and a participated to the same compo too. I also music collector, and I listen to wide variety of music. This NES metal style is pretty much one-trick-pony and I'm sick and tired of people making this stuff just ton win the compos.
@crocz If you think this music sucks, why are you here listening to it? But you have to admit, it's way better than the crap they're throwing out nowadays, i.e. any rap, screamo, etc. I don't think this music is a 'one-trick-pony'. I find it a good example of talent. Before I go... what kind of 'music' do you produce?
@Collin8843 I'm not listening to it, I just wanted to comment on it. And yea it might be better than pretty much anything mass produced populist crap but that doesn't make it any better in of itself really. The reason why this is a 'one-trick-pony' is that it's based on the gimmick of having chiptune style sounds mixed with guitars. Every track has almost same sounds and the melodies are too similar for any of these kinda tracks to stand out. (Running out of available characters)
@Collin8843 Continued here. I produce pretty much any genre that I find interesting. I've done or at least tried jazz, funk, metal/rock, chiptunes, ambient, big beat, dnb/jungle, synthpop, and really pretty much any electronic genre there is. Also yes I think Grimm has talent, he has made couple of good tracks before, and that's exactly why I think he shouldn't rely on making sub-par crowdpleasers.
@crocz u must know then that music is all based on opinion just like art everyones tastes are different so dont complaing and troll just cause it isnt ur type of muic
