Weeeell. I'm still here, if people want to request things. And to prove it, I redid Armok's request. Again.

Ok, that's nice!
I just came up with another request:

Is it possible to make longer pieces? (I remember something about the program posing limitations, but you could make several files and stitch them together with another program or something?)
Make a piece that almost tells a story, the feel should be somewhat like a mix between Zelda-ish and a fairy tale by the Grimm brothers:

"You are walking through a spooky forest, a cloudy night of full moon, gnarled trees and strange sounds in the dark.
You come to a tower, a hundred feet tall, carved out of a giant toadstool, you remember terifying tales told abaut this place. You sneak up and knock on the door.
The door swing open as if by an invisible hand, and the sound the rusty hinges make is like a the whine soul tortured in hell.
Inside, you enter a massive hall, gargoyle statues everywhere, the walls covered in portraits of old kings and queens, all distorted to be a mockery of the human form, and all seeming to follow you with their eyes. in pots on the floor grow plants with their roots extending into the air like grasping fingers, and their leaves and branches dinging into the soil like scared rabbits.
You walk up the giant granite steps, one step at a time, wary. Then suddenly a step breaks under your foot, starling you, and you can see the pieces of rock falling into a bottomless pit below. You continue up.
The next room in a hall of mirrors, but instead of distorting your physical form, the mirrors distort your personality, and as you navigate the labyrinth you are constantly mocked by perversions of yourself.
Then you enter the throne room, the vary air is filled with magic. It has the design of a cathedral, but all the details are mockeries, distortions, and in general the same style of creepiness that you have seen so far. Instead of a podium, there is a throne made of rubies tied together with human hair, and above that is the cathedrals crucifix, but the Christ on it has a female body (with the normal, bearded Jesus head) being graphically molested by Lucifer.
As you behold this in terror, there is suddenly a backwards pang (gnap?) and the witch herself Appears before you! THE witch, the one who made Babajaga cry like a baby, and who bring doubt to the demons of hell. She is older than time, so covered in wrinkles and warts that her face looks like a mummy boiled in lye. Her hair is seaweed, her robes are sewn from the hides of baby girls, and coloured black by al the sins she committed wearing them alone. Her hands are claws, reminding more of scissors than flesh. Moss is growing on her.
She laugh hysterically, an insane laugher of glee and cruelty beyond human comprehension, and cracked by countless millennia, it makes your ears become glowing infernos of pain.
Then she reaches with those claws, and rip out your heart.

Do you want your possessions identified? y/n"

(no, I'm not religious, it just makes for good imagery.)

Its entirely possible to have long pieces. I do short ones cause most of the time I cant think of much else. I'll give it a shot. It'll be like a concept album, only with one song. Wish me luck!

Hell, I might even borrow mum's synth keyboard and record with that, since doing it with a mouse is a bit hard.

Alright... I think I've finished. There are some parts I'm not happy with, but overall, I rather like it.

This is by far the biggest song I've made so far. 10 tracks, 4:02.

Someone I showed this image to said it looked like it might belong in a still cutscene from a 90's computer game, think you could make something inspired by the visual? I guess it'd probably have an air of defeat to it, or whatever you get from it.

Nice! Tied in quite a bit less with the story than I imagined, and it's not scary enoguth, but otherwise it's good!

Bumping this because I'm feeling musically creative. Requests anyone?

Hmmm... I don't have any specific ideas in my head, but how about something evocative of flight? ;D
