[Gothic rock] Sin título - My first attempt at a serious piece with OpenMPT

[dandwz]

Hi.  This is my first composition with OpenMPT I made about a month ago.  I needed to be checking the documentation all the time but eventually it went done. 

For this composition I wanted to give it a videogame mood and at the same time I was trying to make a somewhat catchy tune but with some added variety to keep the composition more interesting.  In the end it turned out to sound like gothic rock or castlevania-like music.  Either way I hope you guys enjoy it.

Nice firsty. Now it's time to ditch GM.DLS and get some proper samples.

I completely agree with Saga Musix. I hear some RPG kind of influence, so that videogame part definitely came through. Now, replace the GM.DLS with VSTi's and it'll be even better.

The only complaint I could have, is that after about 3,5 minutes I've heard the song already, so I miss something in the end to keep it exciting. But its only a minor complaint, and is something to keep in mind for future songs. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the suggestion and your comments!  I'll keep that in mind!

Wow! This is a real good firsty.

And now (as Saga and LP already wrote), get yourself some vst(i)-plugins and bring your work to the next level. I think it's a good idea to start right here and here.

Keep on tracking!
