### Path of the Ninja: Original VRC6 Soundtrack

Hey guys! I'm not sure if you remember me from the old forum, but I'm graypesoda! Thought I'd start off my first post on this new forum strong with some new pieces in my original soundtrack for the hypothetical 8-bit game "Path of the Ninja". About half are finished, and the other half still need a good deal of work. Not quite sure if I should add some more tracks to it either. Anyway, feel free to leave any comments/criticisms!

You should probably state that is only compatible with the 0.5 beta...
Title theme is still pretty good, but I don't like how it ends. Feels too unresolved.
Rooftops needs a better loop. Something to carry the song back into the calmer section.
Alleyway feels kinda... bland? Doesn't really have the action feel of the first two songs. The melody is flat.
I get what you were attempting to go for with boss theme, but the melody doesn't really seem to flow well. Honestly feels like a lot of random notes. Needs a bit more of a direction rather than going up and down around the same general center. And again, looping. You need to work on this.
I haven't listened to everything yet, but I can gather you need to work on your mixing and your melodies. This is overall an excellent start, and I look forward to its completion!

I love this project!
Also, why did you remove the loop to frame 01 on the title theme? I think the loop sounded better...

I agree with all that you said except for the boss theme feeling like random notes, I don't think it does. But I agree with you on the loop needing work there.
Hi! I'm not really active here anymore but I still make music. Nowadays I mostly make dubstep with emphasis on good melodies and chord progressions.

Alright thank you so much for the input guys! I personally really liked my Alleyway theme so I don't exactly agree with Ollaxe that it was bland, but maybe I can "spice up" some sections to keep people from getting bored! I wasn't putting in random notes for my boss theme, although I did want to create a hectic, hi-octane feel and energy to it. Also, I hadn't noticed the title theme or rooftops loops; so I'll work on those asap. Thanks again for the input guys it is much appreciated.

Actually, it was Threxx who originally said that. Just sayin'!
I agree on that a little bit, but not to a 100 %. Spicing it up would be nice though. The first two frames, especially frame 01, would definitely benefit from some edits, but after that, especially after frame 06, I don't think it really needs any edits. The loop is pretty okay in this song as it is right now too.
Good luck with finishing this fantastic album! I look forward to seeing where you'll go with it!
