So to introduce myself, I compose video game music! "Hit The Ground Running", made for platforming action, slightly inspired by Sonic music #vgm #gamemusic #videogamemusic

[Windstepper | VGM Composer @windstepper_mus]

Is it just me, or do the chiptune and retro-styled music tend to get more traction than the other types of music I've posted so far?
Dunno if it's the algorithm, or more people are receptive to that music type, or certain hashtags make certain large accounts retweet it.

@ButterMyBees Thank you 🥺

SNES funky rock time! Happens when I mess around at first and polishing it at the end. Enjoy the SNES music :)

@jam_kodoku I believe that the melodic rhythm is the most important, even if the lyrics can get a little compromised as a result. Still, even in that situation, there's potential for good lyrics.

So, here's some FM jazz funk because I wanted to try more Furnace :D

@_heartcy For a flexible experience, I'd say Ample guitars, especially Hellrazer for the low chugs and VC for tasty leads.

[Windstepper | VGM Composer @windstepper_mus]

@_heartcy Shreddage 3. Argent for the best low chugs (sounds solid and reaches really far!), Rogue for a bright lead and Archtop (or maybe Hollomatic as an alternative) for a mellow lead.
Odin III has a different but still good low chug.

@HWAAStyle If SAY IT didn't blow up, I wonder what kind of path you'd go to?

Nitro Rider from Mega Man 10, but remixed in a 90s style!! If you want the full thing you know where to go 👇👇

@richi_core Yes. Sequencing the MIDI.

[Windstepper | VGM Composer @windstepper_mus]

I'm curious. How difficult do you guys find programming drum patterns?

[Windstepper | VGM Composer @windstepper_mus]

@hamezii_ Well, drum samples are here for ya

[Windstepper | VGM Composer @windstepper_mus]

@rayhann_ssb For a tutorial, I believe that 8-bit Music Theory's drum tutorial explains well enough.

[Windstepper | VGM Composer @windstepper_mus]

@hitobana_sub What is the name of the piano?

[Windstepper | VGM Composer @windstepper_mus]

@Spiral095 Yeah I do mean MIDI drums. I only ask because apparently some people do find it hard, which I can't blame.

[Windstepper | VGM Composer @windstepper_mus]

@andex_vuhieu Of course. Also jazz drummers have shown a lot of diverse techniques, and personally I love the jazz-funk ones (as I love jazz-funk the most) :)
