I got LSDJ the other day and made a little tune. This tune isn't great but i'm only just starting out on this software/hardware.
I was getting a bit sick of milkytracker, mainly because I wasn't getting the right sounds I wanted and the making a groove or shuffle on lsdj is easier etc
Criticism would be good or tips would be great.

Tips, as in, little hints as to how to continue with music or how to make it better,
and crit,
as in, what's wrong, what needs to be fixed and what needs more goodnesses.

I'll pretend lexou was being sarcastic.
Anyways, I would like this more if it wasn't a mixture of raster graphics and vectors, to be honest.

Actually, I just wanted to point out that criticism is just as good as tips; No more, no less.

Side-eying at this thread.
It's pretty pointless picking at how they phrased their post when they want concrit on their music. :I
[/backseat mod]
The song is cute! I think maybe it's a bit too bassy though; the two basslines are sort of overpowering the melody for me a bit. Can you make them quieter, or maybe make one of them a bit higher so it's less heavy?

I dunno if this will count as a necropost or whatever but I haven't been on in a long time.
I would done exactly that if I hadn't gone and accidentally saved over that song file
Listening back to it the bass does pull you away from the melody a fair bit.
Anyways, I have been practicing a bit more recently and have another song to put up.
Same again, crit is always welcome.

Just to add. I love how many people asked about the "crit or tip" thing...
That was pretty much me not thinking.

Not going to lie, I almost hoped I was going to hear outrageously awesome black metal chiptune when I clicked on that.
I still liked the song a lot though

Haha, I think i'm going to have to give this black metal chiptune a go. It would be hilariously entertaining!
Glad you liked what you heard. It's most definitely the polar opposite of black metal haha

Very retroy, very Earthbound=ish.

Thanks
I'm happy you enjoyed it.
It's funny you said earthbound-ish because I really wanna cover Twinkle Elementary from earthbound or mother haha, i dunno if they're the same thing or not.

I first heard this tune in the credits of gameboy camera.
