0:00 So Twilight sayeth the other pony
0:03 You doth inspire me so
0:04 For thy heart needeth to speak to your soul
0:06 For if the pony shall listen
0:12 17 hours of work shall be known.

In all seriousness I did write this for you. I can't upload it to pony.fm until approval for Alpha testing so i had to upload it here. Hope you enjoy. From what your profile says it may not be quite your kind of music and believe it or not I was aiming for something different but if it was you in mind as I wrote it and this is what the result was, then that is the nature of the universe. May it inspire you in whatever way it shall.

 

Edit: By the way... for those that have ever been told to never give up on your dreams... my music teacher called me a failure and to come back when i serious about music.

I can't believe I went almost a whole day without noticing this.  I love it!   It means so much to me that you would make this just for me! You are absolutely the best, you know that?  You cannot possibly understand how thankful I am. You're awesome!

You're welcome! I have another tune i wrote a long time ago back 2006 when my "journey" had started. I'll have to try and dig it up and upload it. I actually still listen to this song myself as I'm fairly proud it. (it's one the more pro sounding creations i've written and it's damn catchy! lol)

Do you still make music? Cause I'd love to make you hear some pony themed songs. And we could always use even more awesome pony producers

I could do more if i had more rescources. If I had vocal samples with no or highly muted background noises with the ponies then I could definately get creative with it and create more themed type songs.

 

You have to realise that i can't read or write notation at all. It's all by ear only which is definately a feat in and of itself. If there was a collection of pony samples i could download I'd definately mess around with them for sure.

Well I mean, unless the show's producers decide to release the vocals without background music it doesn't look good

But can't you still make music with the highly muted backgrounds? A lot of pony musicians seem to be able to do it just fine :S

 

And you could always learn notation as you make music. It's not THAT hard. But I recommend you do it with piano. If you can play piano, you can play anything.

Oh, btw, what "resources" DO you have (programs, midis, etc.)?

Let's not forget my music teacher failed me.   Yeah I can still use samples from the show or extract audio from the show's video. As for the show's audio I have no idea how to do that. (though admittedly I haven't really looked into it all that hard either.) And by that I mean I don't know how to remove background noise from the vocals. Which is funny cause in many cases people are wanting to do the opposite. lol  One of the problems I also would have is trying to make them all on the same audio 'key'. 

 

 

I use Acid Music Studio 8 with a Novation impulse49 usb midi keyboard. Along with Acid, I used vst's such as Nexus2, Albino3, SubboomBass, and SonikSynth. I have a Yamaha  EX5 but have lent that to my brother for him to learn from or dabble in/with/whatever he believes he's doing.

 Huh I've never heard of that DAW before

But anyway, if it comes with an equalizer, then all you have to do is EQ the song and turn down as many frequencies as you can tat don't include vocals. But you don't usually even have to, since somepony's usually done it for pony songs

 

I guess the main problem would be the thing about the same key. I usually do some by ear, but after I know a couple of the notes, I kind of use basic music theory to guess other notes in the key sig :/
