So I've been considering this for quite some time, and I've officially decided to start this... um... thing.

 

Basically, I ALWAYS get writer's block when making my music. So I decided to have a bit of fun and ask y'all what I should do. So please, readers, post ideas for a song (be it pony-based or not) and I'll choose 10 of the ones that seem the most fun and interesting to do. Once I've completed all the songs, I'll of course compile them into an album and have the album be downloadable.

 

Please use this template when posting if you will.

I kind of suck at ideas for music (What can I say, I'm a writer, not a composer), but this project sounds awesome! I can't wait to see where it goes.

What I meant was, like, what my song should be about. But if you're not good at that either, then... um... okie dokes then. XD

 

Thanks for the response though, I rarely get them. :(

Well then I'm glad I could do something for you...even if my music abilities are sub-par at best. I wish you luck with your project and hope you get some responses from people that can actually help you.

Song title:Bright Lights

Song idea:A Progressive House that has deep chords, catchy melodies, and a good, noticeable progression from the beginning, to the finale.

Prog. house.

 

Hm.

 

I'll give it a try. Never really got into doing that kind of electronic, but what they hay. Seems like a good idea. I'll add it to the, *ahem* tracklist. :3

song title: Seclusion

song idea: The reason why Rainbow Dash wants to go fast is to get away from her parents' death, but she can't fly away from her emotions and that affects her friendship with her friends as the anniversary nears.

Not a bad idea, I like it.

 

Just... remember that I do instrumental music, so if you were expecting vocals... um... no, there aren't going to be vocals.

 

So yeah, I'll add it to the tracklist! :)

Thanks. What program do you use? I also want to make music, and I'm using FL Studio 10. Do you have a Youtube or Soundcloud account where I can check when the album is done?

I use a freeware program similar to FL called LMMS. It's the only thing I CAN use, due to my limitations right now (I run on Linux).

 

I have both a YouTube and Soundcloud, yes. The link to my YouTube is on my profile, and I have a Souncloud link in the links of my YouTube profile.

 

I'm too lazy to put the links here. XD

 

Welp, still only two requests. I might have to just make those two songs and call it quits, since no one really seems to care to give ideas.

Track title: Darkness

 

Was thinking that some dark/evil atmosphered Trance track would sound really cool. I've been falling in love with the Trance genre lately, and would love to see a Trance track from you :P

A response!

 

And actually I have been meaning to make a trance track for quite some time. Never really got around to doing it. Might be a nice challenge, so yeah, I'll add it to the list! :)

Well, usually I do DnB/Electronic with various rock influences, but I'm wanting some challenge for this project. I don't want to do what I usually do. Go ahead, throw your ideas at me! X3

Well, i don't really have a title for one, but do you think you could come up with a good dubstep song for my fanfiction 'my lil vinyl'? i haven't worked on it in a while, i was hoping your creativity would spur me on.

I'll give it a try, but no promises that it'll be perfectly dubstep. (My program doesn't do the wubwubs very well)

 

As for a title, I think "My Lil Vinyl" will work perfectly for the song. ;)

TRACK 1: BRIGHT LIGHTS

 

IT BE COMPLETE, YO.

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-v_xRIwL0g4

 

Hope y'all enjoy it. I had fun making it! I cannot wait to get to work on the other songs. Right now I'm exhausted though, so I'll get 'em done later.

 

UPDATE TIEM:

 

Welp, I think it's about time I start working on track 2, which is Seclusion. If anyone's wondering, I should have it done at most by tomorrow. (if everything works out right, that is)

 

song title: Seclusion

song idea: The reason why Rainbow Dash wants to go fast is to get away from her parents' death, but she can't fly away from her emotions and that affects her friendship with her friends as the anniversary nears. 

Alright. I finished Seclusion. I got a bit off-track during making it, so the mood might not fit the story. Still hope ya like it nonetheless. :)

And now for my third post in a row.

 

Track title: Darkness

I finished up the track you requested, RKA. :D

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5D8Ck1h_-I

It's my first try on Trance, so don't expect it to be the most OMGIT'SPERFECT track ever. :P

Okay, i'll give it a shot.

 

Song title: Within Myself

 

Song idea: A smooth DNB track where Fluttershy does her best to gather her courage. I'm thinking a catchy and uplifting main synth would work and possibly an orchaestral backup.

 

YOU FEELIN' IT? mlp-tlift.png

WHY YES, SUPERNOVA, I AM FEELING IT!

 

See, was it so hard to request a thing! XD

 

But yeah, seriously. I do think I could make and in fact want to make that kind of track. :)

Yerr track be finished, matey.

 

Thanks for the challenge, my friend. After the work I now know for a fact that dubstep is not my thing. I can't do it at all. :lol:

 

Hope you enjoy the track nonetheless. :)

Can I make a request?

 

Song Title: Chiroptera

Song Idea: A gothic style song with deep, dark strings with a house beat and industrial style (I'd be impressed if you can pull that off in LMMS). It's about the dark and dingy lives of bat ponies in their crime filled city, which is both medieval and industrial at the same time :P That would be absolutely awesome

 

Hell, I'd pay for the album :P



And you gotta tell me how you make this music in LMMS. I really liked what I've heard so far and I wanna learn too (i'm also on linux)

Could you do a song for my fic? It's a story about rd's parents it's involves her past when her parents disappear. Later on, she starts dating flutter shy. Flutter shy's parents were abusive and part of a terrorist group That are targeting rd's parents because they found information on the griffin kingdom.

 

If you could put all this into one song I would greatly appreciate it. The title and song choice is up to you. Thank you!

Holy cow, two requests in a day!

 

Um, I hope this doesn't come out as offensive, SongBrony, but I'm not quite digging the idea you got. I do think it would be interesting to do, but I don't think I could, y'know, do it WELL. So, I'm afraid I'll have to decline that one. Sorry, dude. :(

 

As for AnonyPoni's request, I do think I could do that justice, especially since I love industrial music and have only ever given it a go once. That one I think I will do.
