Homebrewers! I have contacted a few of you about music and you've asked to hear some of my work. I've uploaded the stuff I created in 09, sketches from an unmade platformer.
These are done with the basic chipset. I wanted to show the scope and range of the five channel set (really 4 as i don't use the dpcm (E) channel). Here's a current list of songs (as I upload them, I update this post).
level 1 - relentless, driving
level 2 - slow, airy
level 3 - fast and fun
level 4 - dark turn
level 5 - evil, forceful
level 6 - bossa
level 7 - breakbeat
level 8 - Intense
level 9 - creepy, melodic
level 10 - heroic
level 11 - funky
level 12 - triumphant (but in an 80s way)
To clarify: I use ppmck as my compiler, (mml files) and not famitracker (also I don't use the fc chipset). the end files ARE compiled as nsf's, I just converted them to mp3s for browser convenience. As of 3/22 I fixed the bass sound (hits an octave below 0 so now it sounds like a bass drum). Songs are looped to show how it would sound in-game.
