Discord's Overture

[LeonTheRabbit1]

Very nice,and how did you get so many views?

[TheAwesomeMooMoo]

A suggestion for a story on which to base the musical on is Discordantly. It's cool but sorta short :P

[29uTubeLover]

I cant wait to see someone make a vocal cover of this!~

[Chefodeath]

You know, this is probably my favorite piece of your music yet, but I think it does a poor job of matching Discord. The organ speaks of power, structure, and majesty, and this piece reflects far too much of that for it to truly speak to the essence of tyhe chaos king.

[Woodbine208]

who's thhe white pony with pink hair?

[NeoSkully]

@Woodbine208 Thats Princess Celestia, take a look at her cutiemark

[MrLawritz]

@Woodbine208 Baby Celestia. (They look like fillies!) :)

[Woodbine208]

@MrLawritz oh thanks. I just wonder why her mane is not rainbow colored :P

[juliaw4]

@Woodbine208 in the days before twilight sparkle and all of that, she was always depicted with a pink mane (in the old books and legends). i'm not sure why.

[TokloLover]

Y'know, I used to dislike organs being played in songs (except Church ones, of course). But now it's my favorite instrument, thanks to this AMAZING song! *thumbs up*

[hornet579]

@TokloLover YOURE FUCKING DUMB IM GOING TO KILL YOUR FAMILY IF YOU CAPITALIZE CHURCH AGAIN

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAH

[TwystedSycle]

@hornet579 You mad? You mad.

[TokloLover]

@hornet579 Why, thank you.

[Thatonekimikidtwo]

@hornet579 Church Church Church Church ;3

[monkey4048]

humbs up for celestia!

[malakszombie]

I call hax on Phantom of the Opera.

[DragonPirateXIII]

If you need a good back story for Discord just go on Deviantart and search for the comic "Discordantly". Even if you don't use it, it's still worth a read

[AnimalAnimeFan]

CUTEST. PICTURE. EVER!

[TheCerlium]

You just earned A sub.

[44Blademaster]

Castlevania



[Invaderphantomstar11]

THE PHANTOM OF EQUESTRIA :D

but srsly if you want a good Discord story watch Discordantly

[DJHyperPonyGBX5]

Phantom of the... wait, i forgot something *leaves computer*

[FUNNYGUY645]

Cute Couple

Nuff Said

[anime9842]

I cried.

Now i need to watch my little pony to regain it.

[PkmnHackQuartzKk]

Awww, Little Discord is sexy :)

[MSarrow]

Shut up. And take my Money. All of the Money *throw*

[dialgapalkiamew1]

I call hax on Phantom of the Opera.

JUST KIDDING.

[izzbassethound]

You sir are an amazing music creator

[RaveXanaike]

This would SO fit his return, I bet~ Heheheee... his wrath~

[dialgapalkiamew1]

I want a download link now.

[Rosewaver]

Those two pictures plus this amazing song say quite a bit. I'm waiting for someone to get inspiration now and write a story to go with it.

*waits patiently*

[LOLLEET133764]

@Rosewaver

Wait no longer, I shall achieve.

[projectoasis]

I'd never say Phantom of the Opera... if you would step over to my right and let me introduce you to my good friend Umineko no Naku Koro Ni... I'm sure you'll find a lot in common. (Loved the piece, looking forward to more!)

[F1NJP]

There's a backstory for Discord?

[Alkex0]

@F1NJP

A weird fan-made backstory, yes. I'd contend that Discord is just Q messing with other dimensions.

[Ohmyani]

@F1NJP General consensus is that as 'children', Discord fell in love with a young Celestia, but she viewed him as a monster, which poisoned him into the creature he is now.

[ApocalypsePenguin]

SO

AWESOME

[NimrodReldo]

Man, what I wouldn't give to have luLz in my URL. You are one lucky individual.

[gurglelord]

See what I cause, buddy? People love your songs! They throw money at their screens for you! If you let me submit Runway Revolution, I'm sure they'd do the same for that too! Trust me. Please make a bandcamp. Get rich from your glorious compositions! I'll help you with that as much as I can.

[psychgoth]

@gurglelord Lol or Runway Revolution could ruin me. I want to hurry and make my bandcamp but I'm new to the whole bank account = paypal = bancamp thing.

[kefkaexdeath]

I demand a download link.

[SnivySolid]

This really does sounds like something from Castlevania. Maybe it's the opening theme for "Ponyvania: Legacy of Discord"?.

Man, I want a pony Castlevania game right now, werever it's a fangame or just a skin hack.

[olotocolo]

Only I hear similarity to Castlevania 4? Or only I wait for someone to make something like that...

[psychgoth]

@olotocolo I have never played a Castlevania game in my life. Although I do know how to play "Bloody Tears" on mah piano :3 or at least the Harpsichord part. Which would sound SOooo much better if I had a Baroque era German Harpsichord, that way I could couple the string sets together and get a wonderful full sound ^^. hehe sorry, I didn't mean to geek out you there ^^; but I am so into that it's not even funny.

[JulienBrightside]

I like it.

[Morthgarrow]

Ooooh, this is really good! Shame there isn't a download link, but I'll look forward to the whole musical if it gets the "word of approval". Though if it doesn't please consider at least providing a download to this piece!

[rundas2344]

OMG thats fits so well with the story and........THAT IS SO BEAUTIFUL

[psychgoth]

@rundas2344 I'm glad you think so ^^ I wanted this to kinda reflect with how innocently Discord approached Celestia and then was subsequently disheartened when she refused him.

[TheMrGreen2009]

Fav. villain.

Fav. Instrument.

Fav'd.

[psychgoth]

@TheMrGreen2009 Thaaaank you ^^

[anonymuswere]

someone call the Belmonts, one of their villans is missing a theme.

[psychgoth]

@anonymuswere Die wer? Ich kenne sie nicht. *hits translate switch* I know not of these Belmonts... clarify?

[anonymuswere]

@psychgoth *smirk* the name of the family that has to go kick dracula out every time he pops up is Belmont. I don't know if Europe got that version of the surname in the castlevania series.

[Jeffthestrider]

Awesome organ

[dreamseru]

your on EQD 'arry

[psychgoth]

@dreamseru yeaaaaaaaaaaa boi. I thought this would never get up there lol. And for some reason I'm always number three -3-....

[makkon06]

EPIC

[TheDumbRock]

I'm sort of wondering, what sound program did you use for this? (Just assuming you don't have a pipe organ lying around) I think trying to broaden my horizons by trying (probably failing) to make music might be good for me.

[psychgoth]

@TheDumbRock I used some pipe organ soundfont that had a million different stops sampled. It's some French name, I can't really be bothered to look it up right now, I can't have my browser and FL up at the same time >.>...

[TheDumbRock]

@psychgoth Okay, take you time to answer any of my questions, but how does one get a soundfont to work? Is there a specific program you use to make use of various soundfonts?

[JimRaynorRaider]

I CALL HAX!...HAX on you didn't still made a bandcamp page/ download link XD

but anyway, awesome song ^^

[psychgoth]

@JimRaynorRaider I need to do some doohicky thing w/ paypal and I need to make sure I have enough songs for a decent album |: but it is coming!

[gurglelord]

Well, now to submit this to EqD, just like all of your other songs! ;) I'm sure they'll add this one. They always do.

[psychgoth]

@gurglelord Lol be careful how much you send, as flattering as I find that Seth might feel it's like spamming. /=

[gurglelord]

@psychgoth I'll be careful. But just so you know, they already replied and added this song AND Allegretto! I'm gonna submit that Runway song next. Tragically ignored that one. :(

[psychgoth]

@gurglelord PLEASE do not submit Runway Revolution, it SUCKS SO HARD.

[gurglelord]

@psychgoth Don't worry. I didn't submit it. But I'm gonna tell you something. I think Runway Revolution is really good! It's been stuck in my head all weekend! If you had a Bandcamp, I would buy that song, and so would a lot of others. We all have different tastes in music, but personally, I like ALL of your songs. Just a little food for thought. It still hasn't been submitted by me.

[baschfire]

Mr. bapipe, you've now inspired me to use an organ in my pieces, cuz DAAAAAMNNNNN that shit is good

[psychgoth]

@baschfire Well that's awesome to hear. Although I must caution you to be creative with an organ, look up all the effects and different pipe sounds. Grand organs have a bunch of stops for a reason lol. Sometime I am using several pipe sounds at once for a melody. And in this case for the bass I am using both the pipes and reeds.

[TheDumbRock]

Actually, this makes me think of a few songs from Gauntlet:Dark Legacy. Particularly the ones right before you fight the bosses, and especially the one before you fight the final boss of the game, the arch demon.

[psychgoth]

@TheDumbRock Interesting, I've never heard of that game before.

[TheDumbRock]

@psychgoth It's one of the older PS2 ones, one of the ones with the blue backing I believe.

Here is the first song you really hear /watch?v=4sPZ91FSTZ8

And it combined with this reminded me of your song. /watch?v=Kxb1CGu4-B0&feature=B­Fa&list=PLF492C1D7626CFF3A&lf=­rellist

[iamLI3]

the first minute of this

watch?v=jDMGv3hNMes

now THAT is some discord music

to bad the guy had to go ruin it with that instrumental switch and adding lyrics of all things.......

also what's with no 720p?.....

[psychgoth]

@iamLI3 Why oh WHY did you just compare my music to Eurobeat Brony's? I hardly call it Discord music, I mean yes he did incorporate many style into one piece (quite tastefully so) but it doesn't ring true as Discord's theme. Although if he would have stuck with that wacky polka then it would have been awesome and theme music. And I will have you know that organ piece was actually a melody from Bach's Toccatta and Fuge in Dm. Which in turn inspired this piece. Don't compare my work to EbB please.

[iamLI3]

@psychgoth idk who that person is i just clicked a related link in the side bar.....

why can't i use that song as an example?....

idk im telling you that first minute of music has got discord written all over it.....

uh which is the polka?....

what organ piece? the start of the other song?......

[psychgoth]

@iamLI3 The link you sent led me to Eurobeat Brony's Discord song and C'mon, you know who Eurobeat Brony is if you know who Discord is. The song is fine but I just don't like you telling me THAT is Discord music. It also stings because I am led to believe you feel he is better than I on Discord music...

The polka part comes later in his song, and the organ piece is in the first minute.

[TheDumbRock]

Okay, i'm musically challenged, but I'm almost positive that is an organ in the background. If so, it suits Discord perfectly, and if not, then whatever the heck it is suits him perfectly.

[psychgoth]

@TheDumbRock This whole song is a single pipe organ lol. A cathedral pipe organ has many pipes and different section(ranks of pipes) that sound different. There is even an organ that can emulate bird tweets. I am using both pipes and reeds for the pedal bass in this piece.

[TheDumbRock]

@psychgoth Interesting. Either way, it's brilliant.

[iamLI3]

"a musical about Discord's back story. I am still looking for good literature to base it on"

yet you already linked that most epically tragic backstory comic series made by crappyunicorn , so idk what you're trying to say there then.....

and this music isn't nearly chaotic enough , while it's still a nice castlevania song , it doesn't seem to fit the mood of that comic at all......

[psychgoth]

@iamLI3 And I have yet to hear from him on the matter; therefore I can't say yes or no yet. I WOULD like it to be about that but I need his ok. And it's not tragic, it's epic! Tragic implies emo-ness/mushy feelings and while Discordantly does have a quick breath of that it's true nature is somewhat adventurous I find. And it is an overture, no chaos here yet. Besides, chaos might be good in art and story, but never in classical music. Otherwise you get something atonal or unmelodic.

[iamLI3]

@psychgoth why can't you make fan music for a piece of fan art without asking permission??....

"Tragic implies emo-ness/mushy feelings"

which is exactly what that comic is about :l ......

and no i don't mean make the music chaotic , i've beaten the nes game monster in my pockets or w/e it's called , i know what chaotic music is....

watch?v=cPRemrD-7og

i meant to have more of a theme of chaos , instead of classic like you said , i just listen to this and doesn't feel discord in it at all.....

[psychgoth]

@iamLI3 Well to be fair it is not about discord it is about a story. When I make a song where Discord is singing then I will throw the quirky/craziness in there. I think I will also make it in 3/4 waltz time.

[iamLI3]

@psychgoth wait what? the song? but you keep saying it's discord's theme?.....

no i don't know who that person is , why did he make discord or something?.....

again im only telling you what the music speaks to me , and no experience/scenario i know discord to be a part of fits the mood of this song......

[psychgoth]

@iamLI3 I must say this conversation is quite taxing on my patience. Your messages are put together in a manner that is hard for me to understand what it is you are trying to say. I understand you don't like this piece and that's fine, but drop it and move on will you?

[iamLI3]

@psychgoth my first paragraph was in reply to your third last reply to me , i didn't think it needed to be a separate comment on it's own....

why would this be taxing your patience? can't you have a multiple reply conversation with someone?.....

i never said i don't like thiis song......

[netancat]

no download link?!? ;(

[psychgoth]

@netancat wait for bandcamp.

[mrmantacos]

This is obviously a phantom of the opera hax *trollface.jpeg*

[psychgoth]

@mrmantacos Lolz, I was legitimately worried because of the pedal bass. Although I shouldn't have thought it, POTO is characterized by the chromatic ascents and descents and unrelated minor chords, not the bass lol.

[mustangdreamer55]

The tune or anything didn't remind me of PotO, I wouldn't have even thought of it if you hadnt mentioned it.

But a musical of Discord's back story?

I'd. Die.

Happy. ^^

You so should! It's a fantastic idea!

(as long as it doesnt put too much stress on you.)

[psychgoth]

@mustangdreamer55 Ah well then that's my bad ^^.

Well it's a BIG BIIIIIIIIIG BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG maybe. I do know I would try to be the singing voice for Discord xD. Keyword: "try". My singing style is classical and I am kinda still learning.

[mustangdreamer55]

@psychgoth

XD That would be amazing if you did do his singing voice; I'd flip, and I'm sure all the bronies would love it. However, its not worth it if it's going to drive you crazy and put stress on you.

And even if you're still learning, you must be better than me, I have no musical talent whatsoever O.o So whatever you create will be fantastic, I'm sure. ^^

[psychgoth]

@mustangdreamer55 Well hold on now lol, I have to be good before anyone flips xD. And I'm not sure if the bronies would appreciate Discord having a baritone voice. His voice appears to be kinda high.

[mustangdreamer55]

@psychgoth

Psh. Psh. Psh. Bagpipe Brony just said he had to be good? Now now, you're not good. at all.

You're fucking fantastic.

and singing voices can be different from speaking voices! I'm a girl with a lower voice than most but my singing voice isnt an alto *i think, again Im not musically gifted*

[circuitfry]

Neat! :D I like the instrument choice, very unified and tenacious.

[psychgoth]

@circuitfry Thanks dude, it is just for this piece though, I imagine if I wrote it out for the musical I would dilute the organ and add some symphony orchestra for a big Hollywood sound.

[ricardogriva]

I love it¡

you should make more... if you want

[psychgoth]

@ricardogriva Thank you, I do want to make more but I need to know if it's a good idea first.

[ricardogriva]

@psychgoth IT IS a very good idea.

you sholud be proud of it.

[Nellus]

Beautiful piece man.

I'd beg for a longer version, but this will work as a nice ring tone.

Kinda reminds me of a few old PSone rpgs...

[psychgoth]

@Nellus Thank you, I was hoping it would sound realistic but...apparently not if it reminds you of PSone games.

[Nellus]

@psychgoth It not a bad thing at all! It definitely stands on it's own as a realistic piece. It was just a random thought. XD

[MrEelin88]

yay
