Post your original musical compositions!

[Ultimate]

I thought that this was specific and far enough away from a general art thread that it might be all right to create a separate thread for this. Only original musical compositions here!

01. Title Theme - Morning's End

This is supposed to be the opening theme to an RPG. Piano was a live performance on my electric piano, while the rest was made on my synth! Then it was all edited together in FL Studio. Only 30 some tracks to go...>_>Let me know what you guys think!

I think we have a thread about this, but this is something I made about a year or two ago:

Wow, that was pretty metal. Pun intended. Seriously though, that was pretty awesome.

I'm assuming you are either guitar or drums? Also, are you in a band, or solo act? Really curious after hearing that track.

I did all the guitars, bass, and keys in that track. My friend, Jacob, did the drums. We wrote the song together. I left one part repetitive cos my friend was going to do a guest solo, but he hasn't come through yet. I might just do one myself.

Jacob and I do a music project which we call Polybius. That song is one of ours. Otherwise, I do solo stuff, in which you can hear me drum terribly: https://soundcloud.com/shanestrife/over-drive

That wasn't terrible at all >_>
These are insanely awesome! I had no idea there was such a talented musician here on the mb...I heard your keyboard in the previous piece, but couldn't gauge your skill level for it based on that piece. How proficient are you at keyboard/piano? If you ever want to mess around or collab for fun, I would be more than willing to contribute a metal synth/classical piano part.

I usually play jazz/classical, but am branching out to all sorts of music recently, here's a random classic/jazz fusion performance:

Jazz Etude - Pastoral

I'm also in a band, here in Japan, called Walker from IOWA (this was my bandmates' idea, not mine >_>). We're kinda jazzy and pop rock. Unfortunately, I can only show pictures at the moment. We're currently working on a PV...so I might be able to post something here in a few weeks.

Thanks, man! I would just consider myself proficient in keys. I can get by, but guitar is more of my thing. I'd be down for a fun collab!

That'd be cool. You should definitely post it if/when you can!

See the thing with this though is...judging by how you rate yourself on drums, I wouldn't be surprised if you could teach me a thing or twenty on keys >_>

Let's do it! How do you usually go about collabs? Do you have any random guitar tracks just sitting around? Or would you want to do something completely new?

Well, I appreciate the compliment, but I would consider you better than me. I'm left handed, so it's hard for me to play keys. I want to lead with my left hand, not my right, so I usually need to record polyrhythmic lines in layers.

I usually write something new with someone. This is the last collab I did with a pianist: http://mus.thewaitingroom.org/Snowflake.mp3

I normally work in MIDI, but in this case, the pianist (Michael Neal) recorded a piano track then I wrote the rest of the song around it.

As long as I know the tempo and key, I can be pretty flexible on it.

I was a little high, so I made some 90's smooth jazz.

Made a new song, it's an orchestral boss battle theme! I still consider it a work in progress, but whatevs! Please give it a listen! Any comments and feedback are much appreciated! Another song for my pretend RPG...

Boss Battle - Rendezvous at the Cape

"She stood there, at the edge of boundless infinity, with a heart so heavy it shadowed even the sun. Through the night and fog she gazed at them, standing there, with crimson eyes."
