[MUSIC] Composer's Alley - Music Thread

[puggsoy]

I polished my song (sped it up, added percussion, generally improved it) and declared it finished. I also gave it a title: Start Groovin'.

(If it's a horrible name feel free to give me tips on naming my songs.)

it's easy to write melodies with Famitracker as you saw, and you're getting the hang of the effect codes (especially pitch bends).

a good way to get better at music making is to cover music you already know. Trying to mimic others will teach you about melody structure, chords and instrumentation.

I already tried copying some instruments from a Genesis track but I'm having trouble getting the sounds I want. I'll try making a cover of something tomorrow, at least melody-wise.
