    Awesome Sangit, really enjoyed all of these, if I had to be critical I would say, damn, make sangit_town loop better, despite that I still let it roll non-stop for 10 minutes, I think that one is my favorite. Really, great work!

    Working on a track as we speak.
    Something completely original that I just started composing, inspired both by what I've seen of the game so far and what I hope it will be.

    I only got to play U9 which I really loved, despite of some mixed reception it had, I thought it was a great Ultima. And the music was beautiful indeed.



    Loved the Stones interpretation in U9.

    The Forlorn Keep (<- click)

    "One day on your travels, you decide to take try taking a shortcut through a great uncharted forest. After a days progress, you find yourself hopelessly lost in immeasurable wilderness. As you head in no particular direction through the orange and blue dusk, debating your next course of action, you notice a looming geometric silhouette in the distance. Civilization? Well, it appears it was at one point in time. You stand in front of an abandoned, formidable keep. Though it is largely undamaged, the flora around it has begun to mercilessly reclaim space. Tangles of vines cover much of the external stone of the building. You make your way to the destroyed main gate, and see debris strewn around, in a roughly equal mix of worthless junk and potentially useful belongings. Clearly whoever once resided here left in a hurry, or at least they tried to; you spot some skeletal remains. What happened here? The tantalizing thought of what answers (and valuables) might lie inside compels you to enter, but the thought that whatever did away with the previous tenants may still be afoot gives you reason to pause. You place a hand on your sheathed sword and contemplate your situation..."

    Inspired by various tracks from the Ultima series.

    Beautiful. Outstanding work! I loved them all. My favorite I would say is connemara, loved the melody it instills; really fitting for New Britannia. LB would certainly approve of these! Keep up the great work!

    I really hope FL listens to this, so that she can forward it to LB and the team. This is beautiful work!

    Hello everyone! I've written a brand new cue over the weekend just for Shroud of the Avatar. This is one possible take on a title theme. Folk instruments blend with a lush orchestral pallet very well!

    I'll let the music speak for itself!

    Not bad, though I think I liked your Connemara a little better.
    What libraries are you using?

    Wow, that's epic man. Your on a roll!
    I think my favorite so far is Promised...
    Oh and OneDay I thought would be a good credits theme... It's ironic though to think of the credits page at this stage in development.
    Nice use of the arpeggiator in all your stuff.


    cheers

    Here is a little piece for flute, harpsichord, and strings. I wrote it down, and Holt Ironfell turned the sheet music into what it is now. The first link is to the recording, and the second is to the sheet music in case anybody would like to read along. :)

    I uploaded some new pieces for anyone interested in giving feedback or potentially collaboration.

    Here's a link to some short pieces which I'm open to sharing and/or work with, hopefully for the next little while (a bunch of WIP).

    www.soundcloud.com/achmeblueprints

    As always I'm open minded with feedback. I know that the style is not specifically renaissance-esque but that is the way she goes. I still have a lot to learn of producing/writing etc.

    here's a brief overview

    -----
    https://soundcloud.com/achmeblueprints/crzwck-2

    strange/ambient/drums reminds me slightly of some Sega stuff

    https://soundcloud.com/achmeblueprints/kurzemurze-02

    potential harpsichord/guitar music, only 1 movement

    https://soundcloud.com/achmeblueprints/drumfunky-1


    strange/haunted/drums/hiphop/funky * the sound that sounds like a voice is not a actual voice but just some cool artifacts from the reverb used

    https://soundcloud.com/achmeblueprints/soulfullstack-pianoarp-5

    I'm sure this has been in a game already at some point but this is my theme


    https://soundcloud.com/achmeblueprints/run-room-short

    super short melody, but kinda catchy

    *edit for a few extras*


    These are my humble attempt at game theme demos, I hope to evolve some of these themes eventually, for my own portfolio at least.

    peace

    You're talking about the auto-queued tracks that are by various random artists on SoundCloud, they play automatically after my track is finished. That isn't my track! :D I don't really use the newer version of the website, which is when they implemented that function. But you can see the queued tracks on the bottom right of the page when you play mine. The transport bar with the pause and play button is at the top right of the page.

    Thanks for listening!

    Maybe the description is, but its clear that you understand it musically. You can't produce the music you've put out without getting it on at least some kind of intuitive level.
