First orchestral song, a cover of The Hollow by Coheed & Cambria (original song here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCBa01cDzuc). It's come out pretty well. Some bits are good, others lacklustre. Violins are a pain to use.

Used Kontakt 5 + Cinebrass, LASS, Emotional Piano, Hollywoodwinds

The Hollow (Coheed & Cambria - Orchestral Cover)

The first piece I've made in god knows how long, and it was a difficult one. With having less time and motivation to do music, it's left me less able to do stuff when I actually sit down and try. At one point I thought this would be the last piece I ever make, but I have since picked up a little motivation to start on other projects, hopefully you'll see them a little sooner than this. 

Anyway enough whining, I made this for my pirate d&d campaign. It's trying to evoke the excitement and trepidation of going through the fog, unsure whether you'll find treasure or certain doom. It makes heavy use of https://www.sonuscore.com/free-orchestra-chords/

Suspense On The High Seas

Idea I ran with for Cheat Knights, the newest and hottest (especially Zak) lets players on the block

Cheat Knight

Ballad Of The Rainbow (Title Theme)

A draft of the Level 1 - Troposphere background music in Rainblock. May delete later as not 100% happy, somewhat rushed

Troposphere (Level 1 Theme) [draft]

First track in a long while now. Gonna try and submit a song every week until I've lost the will to do it (so, after this one)

Inspiration for this was looking out at a very gloomy grey day and trying to capture that melancholy in strings. Diverged a little into plain unsettling over the course of writing it. Timing things was a bitch so that's been slightly rushed for the sake of getting something out.

Grey Light

Geddit? Because organs? Donors?! So funny.

Just testing the Leeds Town Hall Organ sample pack for maybe use later. It's pretty good to be fair

Donor

Can't really call this chiptune because...well, it's not. But it's the sort of style. Another tune I came up with and haphazardly transcribed at work. Not happy with the B1 and B2 sections but I've been sitting on it too long to wanna rework it

Sounds Dangerous

Song I made as background music for my D&D group's final encounter with Strahd von Zarovich. I wrote a couple of intro songs that played at the beginning of each session (think Title Card themes) and there's a bunch of references to those in this song. Think this maybe the closest I've come to a full orchestral piece

The Ancient, The Land

The boss theme for Vampyr, for use in my Curse of Strahd d&d campaign. This took months to finish (partly because I was working on The Ancient, The Land concurrently, as well as general DMing stuff) but I'm pretty happy with it. Went for a very different feel to the previous piece: instead of high-paced hype, slow tense and brooding. Pic is one of the 8 different icons I'm using for the Vampyr encounter.

Vampyr

Amateur music maker. I use Fruity Loops 10 (and occasionally a Samson G Track microphone, and/or an Epiphone Les Paul with Boss ME-50), and compositions are fairly varied in style & genre. 

Songs marked with a * are old (done well over a year ago on old software) and frequently using presets. Newer songs are either Fl9 or 10 using things like Sylenth
Songs marked with (pony) are based off/somehow inspired by My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Don't laugh. It's srs bsns.
