My own original 8-bit music

[Kidincred]

I figured I may as well post this here.

(May as well get people's opinions on my music after all)

So, if you like 8-bit music, here's 2 of my own original pieces!

Plop Drop: 




And The Clock Strikes: 




Please, comment on how they sound, what kind of an atmosphere each gives off, tips and hints for FamiTracker, and whatever else! Feedback would be amazing!

I'm really liking the tune of "The Clock Strikes"! It sounds pretty spooky as if a planning is taking place.

Little bit of info: I made that one a couple weeks after I got FamiTracker XD

And it's also my first piece  BD

I tried to get a dark, sinister undertone to the piece while still keeping it upbeat enough for a good battle theme for Corrupt Reaper. I also tried to make it somewhat threatening. I dunno if I got it accurate or not, but people typically say stuff around about what I wanted so I'd say I hit the nail pretty much on the head.

Yea, The clock strikes is pretty good. Spooky for an underground level or something. Plop drop sounds a bit flat, needs some bass, but also nice.

I tried lots of trackers, found them hard to use, so good on you for making music on those things

Stoppin' y'there for one reason.

The Clock Strikes has no bass o3o

Well, no bass drum anyways.

I accidentally made the 'organ' piece start with a bass drum-like sound.

As for Plop Drop I actually put in a bass drum, it's just at the same timing as the plop sound, so it's kinda hard to pick out clearly XP

but also nice.

Aw, thanks >u<

I tried to make it goofy, upbeat and overall the opposite of threatening, as that's what I picture my Slimes to be like, with a bit of 'trying to be serious but can't' sprinkled in here and there, as my Slimes often try to be.

Granted some figures of authority among the slimes are hard to not be taken seriously when they are, such as King Slime, Super Slime and Wacko (the last when only when he's dead serious).

Yes, I have a superman-ish slime. Here he is:

And just so you know, my slimes are slightly translucent, but only to things that are either worn or extremely close to the slime, such as (in SS's case) the cape and belt. Just wanted to point that out in case people thought he was a different color due to slime pigmentation.

Oh, and I almost forgot, that little purple-ish thing in the center of all slimes is actually their "Heart Stone," which is basically what gives them sentience. It's shaped like a heart and is a light rose in color. It is also always visible in a heart shape while inside slimes to any and all who look at it (so there could be a crowd 360o around a slime and they'd all see it <3 shaped) which is one of many unexplained mysteries of their native world.
