On the subject of Mega Man 9

[coasterkrazy]

My roommate just got Mega Man 9, and I've basically been having its music drilled into my head. I haven't composed anything in a long time, but I was just sitting here with a bunch of Mega Man music stuck in my head, thinking about the commonalities among the songs and what makes them Mega Man songs. So I threw something together. I called it Discharge Man for some reason. Hope you enjoy it.

Yeah, I can dig it. I like actual Mega Man music better, though, but this still sounds good.

If you're trying to make NES style megaman music, wouldn't MIDI be more fitting?

[Archem]

I'm certain it's a midi saved as an MP3. Dunno why, but hey, I don't care.

I love it. You ever thought about mixing a retro game style midi with some regular guitars and stuff? I reckon it could sound cool.

[coasterkrazy]

Nah, I'm really more of an original artist. I don't think I've ever done a remix. But thanks!

Oh, and if this was a MIDI, then why would I save it as an MP3 and increase the file size ten-fold? If you want to be technical, it's NSF (NES sound file) saved as MP3, but I just assume that most of you don't have NSF players.

So this is the real deal NES music. Sorry I'm just not as good as whoever writes music for Capcom... >_> But I'm glad you can dig it.

By the way,
MIDI sounds like this: http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/nintendo/nes/Air1_2.mid
And this: http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/nintendo/nes/HardMan.mid

And if you're still not convinced, tell me what instruments I used.

Can you put up the NSF version?

[coasterkrazy]

Sure thing! Here ya go: http://www.box.net/shared/6d0ym7nvgn

'Tis fun to listen to. I've always liked your stuff, I just never commented for some reason.

[ZeroKirbyX]

I dig man. Sounds sharp, definitely Mega Man oriented.

I love it dude, always liked your NES music.

You misunderstood me. I mean, use midi sounds like an instrument in a band with other stuff. But don't worry, it's already been done to a certain extent.
