Renoise Songs
1

Hi everyone !

I made this site coz I want to become a professional video game music maker… Of course, all these songs were composed & completed with Renoise (though most of them were began with Modplug).

I’d be really interested by your remarks and comments, I’d like to know if you think I’d be good enough to become professional, or if what I’m doing is just plain crap :)

  1. I would write music like this (musics is not proper English) :P

  2. I wouldn’t the text in your intro-page. It doesn’t read well imo.

  3. Your site looks really good.

  4. I’ll download some of your music and have a listen :yeah: :drummer: :guitar:

It might take a while before I have downloaded your songs: damned 56k modem and a long list of downloads :(

I listened to 2 of your songs. And I have to say that the first one proves that you can work fast.
But I would say that you do not have a song that is a definate killer song.

But that does not have to matter. You can get a job anyway.

I can tell that you have lots of talent, and if you just keep at it I know that you will succed…

Thanks for your remarks, Splajn and Blaster !

If you just downloaded 2 songs only, how can you know I don’t have any killer song ? :)
Download the songs from the Shock Project, the mod for System Shock 2, perhaps you’ll find your ‘killer’ song here :)

But that does not have to matter. You can get a job anyway.
Well, I already found a new project, quite ambitious, Aventures for Blackthorn, for Dungeon Siege. I’m not paid of course, but I guess every project will help me reach my first contract…

Thanks again,
Julien.

Hi jnv,

I listened to your tunes, and they are pretty cool. Especially the songs from the shock project sound very atmospheric. They match perfectly the feeling that is common for such a “system shock” game/mod.
In game music, it’s all about atmopshere, about mood. A song must be able to be played 100 times and still not annoy the listener. I think with your work you really have a chance in game music. just send auround examples like hell :)

are those guitars played live or are they tracked using samples ??

Thanks a lot for your comments.

They were multi sampled by me, using a muti effect, for the distortion especially. Then they’re used directly in the tracker.

Finally got around to downloading your songs and I must say they are very nice: they create a very cool atmosphere which I imagine would not misstand in a game or movie.

Downloaded the Cathedral demo aswell. I found the cathedral a bit empty as well as the surroundings (read dull), but the music was all cathedral like ;)

Nicely done.
