what do you guys think?
this is not sample based, the guitar was played by me and the drums were programmed by me!

the link is here

I...Will...have...to...kill...you...with...my...mind...powers.... err..... the force!

*waits for topic to be locked or moved*

Edit: the song is very good, i guess i just misunderstood you, i suppose you want this to be put into the game?

OMG OMG
It's actually quite good!!!
btw i appreciate the fact that you didn't post a topic about like :
" new soldat song... Coming soon!!!! " i hate that
gj man
still, we'll have to wait for famines' song tho

EDIT: @YIN listen to the song atleast before you start talking about which forum it should be in!!! the song is good

EDIT2: just finished listening thru the whole song...don't like the end of the song it's not hard enough! doesn't fit with soldat

thx melba :)

this is a suggestion to include it into the game!

ya hes right, the end doesnt fit with soldat.... but i can imagine that in the game.... it gets soft.... almost fades out... then comes back in, rockin'. even if the ending isn't the best, it would be interesting. I want the mp3(Uncahnged ending, if you decide to change that)!

Link doesn't work for me for some reason. But I'm sure it's just the retarded computers here. But check if it's broken either way. I'd like to listen to it when I get home.

I got it to work, (grubels) its 5MB. I loath my 56k modem.

EDIT: It?s done, I listened to it. Good job. Just needs a lil somthin' something at the end to make it kind of a loop. For continues listening

Well it was just the computers in my Uni. The network people there have the competence level of a monkey.

It's a good rhythm. Good job I'd say.
However it doesn't have the hardcore feeling you'd want for a soldat song.

I don't know crap about music so I can't really make any suggestions. But that's still not going to stop me from suggesting more distortion and a bass?

more distortion isnt always a good thing, listen to some TOOL and youll see waht i mean :)

as for budhi, it sound pretty good, but make the opening riff clean, not distorted. add some more gain to the sound during the main part of the song. and if u want to know where im going with this. listen to a few tool songs and use that for inspiration.

May 13, 2004, 2:32 am
You're talented, kid. Thats pretty damn good. I play my own music in the background when playing, so this suggestion wouldnt affect me. But...good work. Some bits that dont work well, but I still recommend this.

It was good but i can't turn up the volume to much... (i'm at school)
But what it does need is some lyrics and like explosions and people dieing!

Lyrics would be cheesey, It's a fabulous song, but where would it fit in soldat? the intro? Menu screen?

budhi
May 13, 2004, 8:32 pm
thank you everybody for your comments! i'll be taking some of your suggestions into consideration when i work on the song some more!

has anybody tried playing the game with it? how is that?

very nice indeed, and i do think it fits soldat.

Hahaha, dude great job! *sticks it in his all of his playlists* This is great, man. I could remix it and stuff, but Ill make sure to leave the original alone ;)

I think it's really quite good (I love where it goes into the "chorus"). I do kind of agree though that the end and the part around the 2-2:30 mark seems a little soft/out of place (same thing both times). There's just 1 or 2 chords/notes in there that seem a little out of place.

@JB - It would be another song along with Gore, Bloody Soil and whatever the other one is.

I use it with Soldat. It's great. Really gets the adrenaline pumping.

budhi
May 14, 2004, 1:28 am
great to know people enjoy it, since so many people agreed that i should change the end, i am working on that at the moment! :) i'll post here when it's changed!

Droopy
May 14, 2004, 9:07 pm
GJ! RGJ! But as some have said, it doesn't realy fit in soldat!

Soldat it as war game, so it need's a millitary song, similar to the 1 it has now, but still different! In my opinion at least! But I wouldn't realy care if Mitch would change the song, couse I'd proboably listen to it once!
But good work anyway!

Yin_Starrunner
May 14, 2004, 9:27 pm

this is about the 5th time in a row that i'm hearing this song while reading reviews...it is really good (except the end and as u said ur working on it n stuff so ... ok) - more hardcore it needs to be and DEFINITELY NO LYRICS (kinda covered) - don forget that in the game its gonna loop n stuff so the end needs to fit prefectly with the beginning so that it doesnt sound stupid when it restarts the song...how did u make that song neways? that computer progream (cuz that could come in quite handy with these kinda songs)
what about copyright preoctedtion (or is that all covered or is it irrelvant to u)-o well...

DrocK
May 15, 2004, 1:50 am
there is a program caled. fruitiloops or something i used to play with it but i never took it seriously u can make some techno in that

Nikolos
May 15, 2004, 5:05 am
The song is pretty!! not really hardcore stuff but just a little changes and it would be perfect for soldat!

DrocK
May 15, 2004, 6:08 am
all it needs is make the end and the begining to match.. thats all because if you add it to soldat the song will keep repeating.. like zyxstand i think is perfect.. i listened to it carefully and its very good.

thank you everybody for your comments, i really apreciate it.
i havent had much time to work on the song, but next tuesday it should have a new version.
as for copyright, i dont care if people steal my song, just as long as they listen to it.

well if anybody is curious how i did the song,
i programmed the drums in Nuendo 2.0 with Edirol SuperQuartet, i played the guitar and the bass and filled it up a bit with my Roland rs-9.

BlackSpear
May 17, 2004, 11:13 am
It's not my style at all so wouldn't listen to it a second time, but other then that it's a verry well composed song and nothing wrong with it.
gj, but I don't think it's fast enough at all for a soldat ingame song..

That's going into mp3 folder......now!

budhi
May 18, 2004, 2:25 pm
OK, it's updated!

i changed the ending and the beggining to give it a "loop" feel, i also took out some solo sections cuz they sounded "less hardcore" as was suggested here :)

the url is:
http://www.penguinmilk.com/stupid/song%20for%20soldat%20-%20www%20dot%20enjoyallen%20dot%20com%20v2.mp3

well, i also have a band, and well we have a song that might fit in with soldat, so i uploaded it as well.
here it is:

listen to the first right now, and I think it should have a place under bloody soil and necromancer! this song kicks butt, but why end it when it is the best part? make it longer!
it rulzz

First off - congrats to the song, It's great. However, to deserve a space in in-game OST-Soldat, I think it needs MORE. Simply more. (Im referring to the first-post song.) More guitars, put in more drums, etc.(the drums in your song do their part. However, what you need to do is to put in a few drum-licks to spicen the whole thing up - like a 1-2-3 bassdrum/snare-combo a little bit here and there.) And you need to let rip on the grinder-side some more! Try playing the same riff you just came up, but play it in a grinder-version as well. It might sound harder and cooler for a Soldat-soundtrack, but then again, maybe not.

But still, I'd like you to get in touch with me, Bud, since I've wanted to know how to make songs by myself, using music software and guitar hardware. (I'm getting in a 7-string Ibanez this summer, y'know. ;)) I hope you wouldn't mind getting into tedious details on how you added drums, recorded guitars and [:-censored], explaining it all to me, right? :D

I somewhat like the screwy drum in the song of your band, only the mixing could be WAY better

and now to some honest comment
sounds nice, yet it sounds like you made it in coke music.
no offence.
also, song itself is too "soft" for soldat...

personal rating: 6/10

Michal Marcinkowski
July 12, 2004, 3:22 pm
Good peice of music you've done, I like it. I don't know if it fits with the rest of the Soldat songs, it is softer than BSG's work.
Where you thinking of Soldat while writing it? I like the interlude in the middle it has a Mike Oldfield feeling, am I write?:)

Kazuki
July 12, 2004, 7:12 pm
Well, it's not as soft as Necromancer (or whatever that last song was called). Personally, I think it goes really well with Soldat, but that's just one person's opinion.
