Overcome - A MIDI Album

[Dragonfly]

 

I'm back, substantially sooner than expected, too! These MIDI's are primarily composed for use in various Doom maps.

 

This is the second album so far; included is a collection of twelve MIDI tracks in a variety of genres, lengths, and of probably-mixed quality; for a total of 45 minutes and 16 seconds of audio. Unlike my previous MIDI release, you're free to use these MIDI's as you please, none of the tracks included here are tied to any specific projects. I like to think there's at least a little something for everyone in here - there's the pounding Metal sounds of "Overcome"; the filthy unstable proggy mess that is "Abhorrent"; some Djenty, chugging goodness in "Djenotype"; lo-fi chillout vibes in "Soaring"; the 80's rock / anime outro styled "Conclusion"; and much more!

 

As stated last time, I'm still learning the ropes when it comes to composition, and as is the case with any art form, it's a slow and steady learning curve. I hope to continuously improve as I go, so if you have feedback that could help improve the music I write, don't hesitate to let me know. :)

 

I hope you enjoy listening to these and/or using these in your maps!

Wow, you are fast. I thought I was rushing my next album, but you've released two (both longer than mine) in the time I've been working on it.

[Dragonfly]

Quantity is not a measure of quality though! Take it at your own pace. :)

[omx32x]

i've been wanting to get into midi music making what programs do you guys use to make it? and do you guys followed any tutorials?

[Doom_Dude]

Very nice. Really liking Overcome, Podium and Crush.

[NeilForshaw]

Curious. I'll have to have a listen.

This is really cool stuff! I liked letting every track transport me into a different map-context where they'd belong to. My favourite two at the moment are "Soaring" and "Exodus", the latter immediately brought me to the hub maps in BTSX, I pictured a deserted location completely devoid of hellish life but doomguy wandering through it like a lost person in an island. "Podium" may be another favourite, though there's something of ambiguity in it, since my mind went to different places but not one in concrete better than the other. Some midis like "Calculated" or "Crush" gave me a more "vigorous" vibe, perhaps a plutonian hybrid techbase/natural rocky terrain, with robust monster density and rocket-fueled action, just thoughts. "Overcome" can fit nicely in an episode opener. "Interlude" sent me big boom map energy of a 2-colours scheme, where in moments between fights the music is the main character and the visuals feel extra soothing. "Abhorrent" was a trip, thought I've honestly never been in that particular state :P

 

Anyways, rambling aside, I'd gladly find a place for a few of these tunes someday. I think all of them are very good. Keep them up!

Lets put these rhyming words on ice. It's overdone now.
