    Awesome. Makes me want to play Audiosurf (or however it was called) again with that song... and that's what I'm going to do.

    BTW, flawless midi, Derpy. Just flawless. (I can totally see it for a bossfight)

    OMGZOR I'm with Jaret 100%
    That midi is absolutely pawn-age!

    I don't know the (chimes/xylophone?) make me think it'd fit Twilight :p

    I just love where this piece is going - so takers so far are Trixie and Twilight, any others it may work for?

    I'll try to finish up on the Scoot theme later

    And Scootaloo is done

    I also added midis of both pieces to the front page, so yeah if you want anyone's free to remix/cover/whatever the pieces




    -Edit-

    MIDI finished of the Twilight theme (definitely fits Twilight better then Trixie)

    Not sure how I'm going to do that Guitar Solo, there's got to be some way to get a good sounding virtual guitar (I may see if I can get a friend with a better plugin to render it) with the tools I have. I can tell the Eurobeat Brony guitar solos are virtual guitars, but he manages to still make them sound good so maybe I'll try to emulate how he does it. I'm going to try and play the acoustic parts on actual acoustic guitar (since I have one and that's bound to sound better then a virtual one).

    Wip time, btw using a trial of a new plugin for many of the synths in this, they definitely sound much better then what I'm used to
    I definitely like where this is going.

    -Acoustic guitar is a placeholder until I record my own playing

    -On the distorted guitar solo I'm not sure on the outcome of that, I'd like some input if you think it sounds passable or not

    Btw, if anyone could do up some album artwork for this one it'd be appreciated

    Pretty much done, just need to mix out clipping in a few areas which is proving to be a pain with that one lead
    I'm too lazy/tired to finish wrestling with the mix tonight so I'll try finishing it up tomorrow, aside from that it probably could go on youtube now since youtube compression prevents any of those little things from going through but it doesn't have any artwork atm anyway (anyone willing to fill that in?).

    Also if anyone has a better name suggestion I'm open, I'd rather not all the pieces fall into the name fashion of "Blank's Blank" as that tends to get cheesy (something like the first piece, Lunar Eclipse works best (has a reference to the character along with a more abstract name)).



    Also if anyone has audiosurf that wants to play the songs feel free to do, it's something more interesting to watch then just an image and is something additional we can put on the channel, the channel could definitely use some additional content.

    Midi's been added to the folder so anyone can do as they please with that

    Well I suck at audiosurf, doubt I could do the whole song length :3

    I might be able to do some art, though I'd rather not due to time constraints, Twilight right?

    Yeah Twilight - well you could play audiosurf on easy difficulty
    But really any sort of video content for the channel will do atm, we seriously need something, anything to put on there

    By the power of the master fader (which I've only recently started using for some odd reason or another), I bring you the final track. Just needs some art and it can go up to youtube. Using the same method, I can easily (finally) fix the annoying clipping in Scoot's Race too

    I really shouldn't but yeah I'll make you one, any style preferences?
    It won't be anything amazing though, I just can't afford to spend too much time on it (as much as I'd love to) :(

    EDIT: Done.
