      I don't write, I create music, but I feel the same principles apply. That's all I've been doing today is just listening to music, trying to find some ideas.

      Sadly though, it hasn't been helping. To some degree, right now it feels like I''m obligated to create music, instead of just something I do for fun. I have a feeling that's where the source of it is coming from.

      (I was trying to put my explanation into a music-sense, but I'm tired of thinking. D: )

       

      Oh yeah, if you feel like you HAVE to create then you won't get anywhere. In that case it might be best to just step away from it all for a couple of days and just go do fun things.

      I just mess around with the notes. Maybe play some chords.

       

      Here's something I do: During the day I come up with random melodies in my head (Pretty much 65% of my music is based off of things I come up with while in the shower). I write the notes of these in a notepad so I can remember it.

       

      Maybe that'll help.

  2. Subscriiiiiiiiiiiibe to meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee....Yes me. That is all.

  10. I've made some major changes to this track, including extending it with a breakdown and additional chorus. I've also re-mixed it so the drums don't sound like shit! I got the inspiration after playing "There's no time to explain!" If you enjoy this, leave a like on your way out, it really helps me out! I don't have a lot of subs, so even just a comment would really be appreciated!
  11. Hi there! I'm looking to start a mobile DJ business when I'm done school, and I'm currently looking for a graphic design that I can use for either a business logo or a business card logo. I'm not gonna lie, I'm gonna be a bit picky here, but if I like it, I'll definitely throw you some money for your time! I can't draw to save my life, sadly! I found somewhat of a reference picture (if you can call it that) here Now, I'm not a female, and I definitely don't like flowers or pink, but I do like the line style. I'm hoping that it would be possible to change the theme from a flower to "New York", as that's where I'm currently studying. Here is a picture of me for reference If you can help me out, or even show me a quick sketch of your ideas, that would be totally wicked! Remember, there could be money if I like your idea!

    request shop Gale is taking requests!

    Holy moly, it started with 2 requests and now everyone is onboard! Good luck buddy. I would do something similar with music, but I'm worried that ALL THIS would happen.
  13. I know what you mean by "Seems slow to start". The beginning was meant to be some sort of 'main menu'. Wasn't sure how else I could pace that out. But I'll keep that in mind for the next one.
  14. Got an idea for a track after playing "There's no time to explain!" It's not pony-themed, but it's my first shot at a video-game-type genre. Constructive feedback is appreciated
  15. I need help making a quick music video for my new track. I tried making something, but all I have is Movie Maker, and it keeps corrupting the original file. All I need, is some key footage points from the trailer of THERE'S NO TIME TO EXPLAIN, the indie game. My track is due tomorrow, this video won't take long to make, but I cannot do it myself. Message me for details if you can help me! My track http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbYTfEB5FQ8&feature=youtu.be THERE'S NO TIME TO EXPLAIN
  16. Can you explain? I've seen some bad avatars too, just curious to see what other people consider a "Bad avatar" Back to topic, I'll be honest I kinda do too. Obviously if someone has an avatar portraying an angry or aggressive pony, I'll assume that person to be slightly as such. That's about the only thing I can think of.

    Ah! I totally didn't even know what to expect, but this exceeds my expectations, I love it! This is wicked! One artist to another, I think you would appreciate a bit of constructive feedback. Personally, I'm not a huge fan of the smoother hair, I'm more into a messier hair style. That's the only thing that stands out for me. Although I can see how the smoother style attributes to the original picture I referenced. Well done! But that ear-piercing (?) more than makes up for it, so I shall call her "Abby" (for Ableton) and she will be my OC! Thank you so much! Edit 1: Hi-Res available?

    HOW DO I USE SPOILERS!!!!!??????!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!! I can't figure them out there are 2 other people now, you can do their requests if you want, I realize I don't really have any reference picture because I have no OC lol!

    Cool, I'm down, why not? I'm in love with my production software, Ableton Live. Here is a reference picture http://traumacenter.fr/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/ableton_logo.jpg I'm super curious to see what you can do with this. Preferabley a mare? EDIT1: Ableton is all about music, if that helps?
  20. I'm not an artist on paper, but this looks interesting, I'll partake. I hope you're up for some music. PS. Dunno how to do spoilers, so bare with me. 1. My first official track, laughable bad? (I don't know why it doesn't work) 2. My most recent piece? Not sure if this counts, because I'll be finishing another track tonight, but here is the recent piece http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QwsKSVGSxE 3. Most popular piece? PINKIE PIE!! (Apparently 2 videos is the max I can post. Just copy paste this, it's a pinkie pie Smile Smile Smile remix) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBW03d8kAYE 4. Personal Favorite? See number 2 5. My greatest strength? Man, I would have to say my crazy imagination, and my ability to hear songs in my head on a whim. Honestly, there's been times where I woke up at 3 in the morning thinking "GOTTA MAKE MUSIC!" That's how number 2 came about I also studied music and performance for 12 years prior to my involvement in Electronic music, so that helps. 6. My greatest weakness More often then naught, I find myself extremely un-motivated to create anything. I can get distracted very easily by shiny things. Once I'm done with school and moved back home, I have a feeling that video games may distract me from my goal. TL;DR Motivation issues. Sometimes I'm not sure what type of music I'd like to specialize in. My LONG TERM GOAL is to be able to create all different types of music for other peoples projects AKA movies, animations etc etc. Sometimes I don't see that happening, so that can be a bit deflating as well.
  21. To those of you who have attended Bronycon in the past, here is a question for you. I'm a student returning to work in July, so I'll have some monies, but not as much as I'd like. How much does Bronycon REALISTICALLY cost? How much have you ended up spending whilst at a previous bronycon? Some people have told me that the floors can get really expensive really quickly, and that worries me. I don't want to go if it means I can't have any fun, but if "fun" is out of my budget, I won't even book my plane ticket. TL;DR How much have you spent at Bronycon?

  23. DUDE! Awesome! If it were me (and mind you, I'm no artist) I would have done the eyes and mouth a little differently. Can't quite put my finger on it, but something with the eyes and mouth doesn't sit well with me. I would have prefered to see a bit better definition around the edges of the eyes, and the mouth not so curvy. But that aside, I like it, and it's way better then what I could have done in 30 minutes.
  24. The article is extremely demotivating. If I could have commented on it, I would have. It's a bit disappointing to know that this degree of ignorance still exists in the world. Though why am I not surprised? It's the goal of small-time content producers like "Cracked" to enforce discussion on their website through controversial products. Simple. Though I did read one comment that a woman was stating she would be "uncomfortable with her daughter in the theatre with the bronies in there too". ... ... ... I can understand that when people see the fandom, perhaps the "shadier side" aka clop, that they would begin to worry. Or did some ignorant redneck tell her everything she knows, and she never had the chance to learn what we really are? TL;DR I'm not scared of going because of what people will think of me when they see me. I'm scared of going because of what people already think of me before they even know me. But I'm going anyways!
