Nintendo Forever - JustTony

Description : My (now ex) girlfriend gave me the title before I even set down to work on the song. The whole idea for doing a song like this anyways was due to the Facebook group I belong to, Nerds United. I said I'd make the group a song for everyone in there to have for free, both for them to enjoy and hopefully share with friends and get my R.S.S. project out there for others to hear. Guess we'll see though, eh? Note: The present version was edited to have lower drum levels in comparison with the previous version.*

Thanks for the kind words man. The only critique I perhaps had about it were that the drums were too powerful when I went and listened to it in my car. At least when compared to the other tracks I put with it on my little sampler I'm passing out at my band's gig this Saturday.

If you like this track though, you'll probably really love Altef Fuore (read Alt F 4), the new "intro" track I made for the sampler. I can upload it either today or tomorrow for listening. So be sure and look for it!

Sorry bro, I can't give away all my trade secrets. Haha, just kidding. Seek out Tweakbench; it's the name behind the VST I used called "Triforce." That should help you out I would think. Thanks for stopping by to listen and appreciating the track and sounds. Be sure to keep an eye on my page; you never know when I'll have something else going up.

This is a very cool retro track! I dig all the sounds you used! Really nice mixing and arrangement! Man this brings me back! Thanks for sharing!

Not at all a problem. I see you around on the Looper a lot, so to have you stop by and review my track is an honor. I grew up on video games; especially early RPG titles such as Final Fantasy, Dragon Warrior, Ultima (NES version) and others. They really had an impact on my mental development early on I believe. Or at least I think. So video games will always have that sort of place in my heart, and continue to serve as an inspiration for my music.

Who knows? Maybe we'll have to colab on something along the same vein as this track sometime; mixing up 8-bit memories with some favorite synth sounds.

Haha. Glad that you loved it bro. I tried to mix 8-bit flare with electronica grooves. I just love to arp sounds, so that's why that's in there a lot. The 8-bit mid part I had to keep simple and reminiscent of old school Nintendo games. It was really just a lot of fun to make, I swear. Thanks for checking it out. Share with friends on the Looper if you don't mind.

I'm very inexperienced when it comes music so my synth lines and bass lines consist of simple scales so when I listen to songs (particularly when listening to DnB, Dubstep and Electronic music as well as anything with an 8bit sound) I try to study the synths and the basses and drums to see how they sound and the notes that are played. I try to pick up what I hear and integrate that with I know to better myself. In the case of your song, I'm terrible at making interesting lines and common video game sounds using 8bit so if I listen to your song I'll have a better understanding of what I need to do.
I don't actually get a chance to study the work of others though, I'm too lazy. haha

Mixcraft huh? I tried it back when I didn't destroy my PC, wasn't a big fan. Each to his own. xD You're good with it. =] I'm still looking around for good free VSTs, I did however buy two plug-ins and downloaded a bunch of AU which did improve my music a bit. We'll do a collab or something in the future most definitely, I just have to improve a bit before I'm ready to though. I'll check out your loops.

This was pretty good mate! I learned a lot from this track. Hopefully I can incorporate what I've learned from this track to make my music a little better. Sorry I couldn't give a good review. Good job and I hope the members in your group like it.

Haha. I'm a lot like you man. I'm only using Mixcraft 5.2 to do my stuff, with all soft synth VST's I've gathered up over time. I'm curious as to what you learned from listening to it though. I'd definitely like to know.

But yeah, me too about the group. Sometimes it's hard impressing nerds, you know? They can be very picky sometimes. I loved arp'ing the hell out of my sounds in this track though. I love arp sounds, that's for sure. But yeah, thanks for liking it, listening to it and making it a favorite. I appreciate it all bro. Maybe we'll colab on a song in the future or something. And feel free to check out my loops, what little I have up thus far.

Description : Grunge, Gospel and Latino vibes track... I tried using my voice as a guitar by using some heavy distortion. I need to write a song to this but I'm too lazy and want to move on to the next project lol

Description : A blend of heavy bass, melodic piano vibes, and atmospheric synth textures. I wanted to create a sound that balances powerful low-end energy with emotional melodies and subtle sonic layers.
I'm still learning and improving my production skills. I'd really appreciate your honest feedback on the overall sound, mixing, bass balance, melody, and arrangement.

This is one of my latest experiments in EDM production. Hope you enjoy listening!

Description : Hey everyone, I'm sharing my new track with you. The main motif comes from a sample by Mike Hayes titled "Lament." I added a few extra touches, some drums, and vocals from the phonk genre-I thought it would be an interesting fit. Let me know how it sounds!

It is a reminder that, despite the evil, pain and sorrow in the world, our hope remains in Jesus. From a cry for restoration to a declaration of praise, the song brings together people from all walks of life in worship of the King of Kings.
