For whom (character, SB, setting, other, etc)?:Market place in my novel.
General Feel (happy, sad, fast/slow-paced, etc -- try to be detailed): Kind of fast paced to reflect a bustling environment and life. This is a place where artists and musicians dwell so there will be lots of street musicians and dancers.
Other preferences (instrument or something, note that I don't have literally every sound at my disposal): Maybe drums and fiddles!
Other (just plain other, if you feel the need to add something): I love you, Bob.
Image (if you don't want me to email it to you, I'd like to know what image I need to have the track uploaded with): I'll have you email me, puny human!

Gnarly.

For whom (character, SB, setting, other, etc)?: I was thinking perhaps a theme for an unnamed character, a young woman with two horns, one of them broken. This character lost her humanity and most of her mind long ago, and wanders the edges of a snowy island nonstop, unaware that she is trapped.


General Feel (happy, sad, fast/slow-paced, etc -- try to be detailed): I suppose I should mention that, if I get the opportunity to use it and all that, the song would ideally be used in a video game. I bring this up because, due to the nature of most video games, songs in them should be prepared to loop, so if you could write the theme so that it loops well, that'd be suh-weet. :)

I'd like the feel to be slow-paced, "cold", dark; a theme that describes someone who is in despair, but also someone who probably deserves it. I'd also like it to increase in tempo at one point, with the song getting slightly warmer and melodic, maybe used as a suggestion of hope if you can, only for the tempo to slow back down by the end.


Other preferences (instrument or something, note that I don't have literally every sound at my disposal): Feel free to use whatever you think works best.

Feel free to take your time of course. I've made a topic like this before, so I'm aware of how quickly the work can stack up, especially if the topic gets a good chunk of posts.

Just so you know, you are the bomb.

For whom (character, SB, setting, other, etc)?: Rylan Warrick
General Feel (happy, sad, fast/slow-paced, etc -- try to be detailed): Fast paced, loud, sort of like a thunderstorm. I'd like it to feel threatening and ominous, like some dark form of doom is coming on the horizon. It could also have a touch of gloomy too it as well.
Other preferences (instrument or something, note that I don't have literally every sound at my disposal): Cymbals please.
Other (just plain other, if you feel the need to add something):

Totes, as I said there was a crash and everything was deleted D: but I'll get to it!

Lyricalias, I have ideas c:

Shino, that ought to be pretty cool. Unless the storm is a clever metaphor, I can actually add thunderstorm noises, if you'd like?

For whom (character, SB, setting, other, etc)?:The Second Motherland War SB

General Feel (happy, sad, fast/slow-paced, etc -- try to be detailed): It's sort of a defiant, yet sad feeling. The SB is a rebellion, so try and make the beginning slow, and then make it faster, like a plant regrowing from a forest fire.

Other preferences (instrument or something, note that I don't have literally every sound at my disposal): I would like a lot of percussion in it, maybe some winds if you have the resources. XD don't wanna make it too hard on you. Dubstep? Maybe, but only if you feel up to it. If not, it's totally fine!

Other (just plain other, if you feel the need to add something): Feel free to make it as long or as short as you want. I do want somewhat of a grandoise feel to it, for the SB is very grand in nature.

As for the above, I could record some real instrument tunes to play for it and send them over to you, Loubenon. Since it is my storybook too...

In addition to whole epic rebellion feel, I think it would benefit it to have a little of either New York city music or Southwest dirty metal. Whichever is best I guess.

Lyric, I was feeling hugely experimental. If you feel it wasn't quite what you were aiming for, I can do another, more 'traditional' dark thing.

In the meanwhile:

Hmm,I'll admit that it's not what I was expecting, but I like it a lot. :) I think I can work with this. Maybe not with the original idea I had, but one reworked. In fact just listening to it gives me some new ideas.

If you wanted to make the more traditional song too, that'd be awesome, but I think this song is sweet.

Good then, I'm glad I could help. I might do another! After I get through with the other requests.

Yeah, guys, my inspiration is wholly random. Posting order does not mean the order in which I go through the tracks, sorry ;c
