AmbientBeat

I wouldnt mind collaborating. I play drums, and I have basic skill in guitar, piano, recorder, and sampler

Yes, I am indeed familiar with Gold Panda. I love his work .

What my fanfic does is take the cliches and has fun with them. There are cliches everywhere, and I usually try to make the characters aware of that and try(or fail) to squirm out of them. Since my fic is a Black Comedy, they often fail. I'm trying to do the impossible task of mixing satire with a serious story. I'm trying to see what would happen if the ponies ended up running into a Teen Drama, so while weird, absurd things happen, Twilight faces plently of serious, even cynical situations too.

I'm looking to up my game on making my favorite genres. The Shoegaze and Chillwave genres are among them. My Ambient Beat project goes for that heavily processed yet beautiful sound. But I need tips on exactly what effects are commonly used, and such, especially from fan of those genres.

What are cliches you see a lot in MLP fics(or fanfics in general)? I plan to add every single one in my fic.

Have it not be about the book, have it be about Twilight really liking Rainbow Dash

I can drum, do basic guitar, recorder, and synthesizers. I'm so in

Okay I'll wait till you have a chance

Could you give them via Private Message?

It's cool. Do you think you could give my "new" songs a listen? They've actually been waiting to be released for awhile

My main genres are Dream Pop, Shoegaze, Synthpop, IDM, Instrumental Hip Hop, Neo-Psychadelia, Plunderphonics, and New Wave

What genres do you like to make?

Yeah, fo sho, but I still have to finish releasing my older stuff

If you want you can give my other music on Soundcloud a listen. It has both Ambient Beat and my main project.

I do know music theory, I just never really used it, which is something I should start changing, because I dont like making a song and not knowing how I made it.

I honestly didn't think of any of that when making these pieces. Usually my method is finding a nice melody or a distorted sound of sorts and holding it. The majority of my songs put sound and melody on top of everything else, since sounds have a big effect on me. I also loop a lot to mimic the hip hop sampling from the 90's, since for some reason I really like the sound of it, but I often avoid it on certain tracks. The Flying Through song was actually a Dream Pop/Shoegaze influenced track, the sliding and strumming were intentional because the sounds felt more personal. I was actually trying to go for the feel of a song by Boards of Canada, who are one of my biggest influences when it comes to my approach to sound. When I recorded it I was trying to aim for something emotional and personal, and I was mainly thinking of this song here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxHi2DqrgwrnJZxVtSt_BFw. The same thing goes for Shine. The other tracks I really dont have any excuses for. Trot was a messy example of me messing with samples, Love(and Some Techno) was a loop experiment that after I finished I realized I made a cheap MLP knockoff of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUF5P5xo7jg. It's also a song I'm planning on remaking, since I like the melody, but not the way I mixed them. Equestria After Dark is my least favorite. It was actually me trying to make a Hip Hop like tune, and while I like the loops, I think that's the one I definitely couldve done differently

I uploaded a new handful of tracks from Ambient Beat, the pony expansion of Face for Radio. Here's the link, and hopefully you like it. Be sure to leave critique, both positive and negative, in the comments. Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxHi2DqrgwrnJZxVtSt_BFw

Fo sho, I'll PM when I make one

I got both. Havent opened the Devientart in awhile though

I have Skype. How is everything going to go down?

I'm down for co-labbing with you

I might need one. I could PM you if I come across a song that needs vocals. Do you mind singing bad words(Not too many)?

It's nice to have the 2nd amendment when the majority of people who own guns arent psychopaths

I could help with the dialogue and I'll try with any other problems with the story

So how is everything supposed to play out? Do I write some scenarios? Do you already have everything planned out?
