### Beautiful Pestilence [VRC6] (Old song)

This is a completely unadulterated version of a very, VERY old Famitracker song of mine, "Beautiful Pestilence" (which is not even that beautiful, really)
This was my 3rd Famitracker creation ever, and... well, it's bad, but I kind of like it. I really want to do a remake of it, but I just don't know where to start.
Anyway, enjoy? Feedback is welcome...

It's not bad, really, kinda has a "serious Pokemon battle" vibe to it.

I absolutely love the percussion in this song. Especially around frame 6, those samples are puttin' in all kinds of work. The song as a whole definitely maintains the feelings of dread and tension you probably intended to invoke, so overall I say good work.
In terms of actual criticism, how do I put this? I'm not particularly familiar with music terminology (I know what an ARP is, at least), but to me most of the melodies in the pulse channel to the right of your DPCM sound... out of key? They don't really seem to mix well with the rest of the song is what I'm saying.
If you do come back to this song, I'd say start there. Try an' tune your individual channels to be harmonious with one another, for the most part.

Heh thanks. I remember that's what I was going for when I made this, but... yeah. Didn't quite achieve it.

Huh. They do sound out of key. Anyhow, thanks for the criticism! I'll probably start working on it now!
And yeah, I must say, the percussion... was a pain in the ass, but it's probably one of the best I've created. At least that.
