Yeah, a little about my music carrier:
I started with guitar when I was 5, played that for, well now its become 18 years ^_^
I also started with drums when I was 16, but I only played in a band for a while, and it have been a long time since last time.

Also, I have played videogames as long as I can remember, and as the notalgic person I am, I loooove chiptunes, aka 8-bit music, wich the NES is pretty well known for.

Then I discovered FL studio. I quickly learned it, and in the start my songs was slow trance and some drum'n'base tunes.
After a while I got hold of an chiptune sampler, it was some standar samples there, but over the 6 years of using this sampler I am now up in about 5.500 8-bit samples, most of them I have sampled from NES games and Gameboy games.

So, I will start posting some songs here, first I have made a small "Osu! community" pack/album that I will post here.
Feedback would be nice.

Osu!Community album: http://www.mediafire.com/?1a2yyf7y37h442q
In this album you will find:

Adventures Into The Eternal Forest (wich is also a MP4 wich means I have made a small nice video)
Bad Apple! (my own 8-bit version)
Chipstream
Paexaea's Revenge
The 8-bit Pain
Touhou Rhapsody

U.N Owen Was Her? 8-bit!

That's cool.

I'm wondering though, what makes it "osu! community" other than that bad apple and that touhou chiptune...? Could have been a medley of "popular songs" here so it makes more sense. I assume this happens a lot anyway so.

I've listened to some of them and they're good. Don't know what suggestions I could do since I'm no musician of any sorts, but it would be nice if they were tagged and all.
One thing, the video for "Adventures Into the Eternal Forest" doesn't make much sense to me, to the point I ask "why include it?". You could also include an mp3 version so no reencoding is needed.

Why not? To not let bad mappers map them? I don't see what's the problem, everyone should be able to map what they want. Even if you disagreed with them, you know you can't really stop them.
Not saying I will map them, by the way.

There's your feedback.

Chiptune... let's see how you pulled this off... when my internet stops being a dick.
Firo Prochainezo
YES. I love chiptune!

Adventures into the eternal forest is my least favorite one. Useless video and confusing.

My favorites one are probably Touhou Rhapsody and 8-bit pain.

I'm pretty sure Danzai can request to have the map removed and have that request granted.

I actually see no problem, Gen. If it's your own music you have to right to decide if you want other people to map it.

Nice nice music, i want more of them *o*


Chipstream is a nice song :3

Also, i'm not going to map any song, but if anyone makes a map, i'll be there to make a diff

Ok, and update: U.N Owen Was Her? 8-bit is here! (link in first post)


Anyways:
@ Gens:
I know there arent many songs directly considered "osu songs" but I wanted to make a small pack to share with you, thats all.
Also, Yes, I have the right to decide. Its my music, if anyone wants to map it, they can ask me.
Gens
For clarification, I wasn't saying you should not do that, was just asking for a reason. Personally, I'd be happy someone would even be interested to map my music, but I understand.

Also, cool, new chiptune.

Okey, so I wanted to do a dedicated song to the #lobby.
Its really just an old tune, about 1y old that I did some quick tweaks on.

Keep the'm coming

I'm fairly sure there's a VST which generates proper 2A03 tones for FL9

Accruing a samplebank that large is impressive, I have to admit.
Derekku
do Danzai Yamaxanadu :v

Also: nice job~
James
good stuff *star*



.. wait this is not pending beatmaps

Im aware that there are a VST for FL, but, if I use that I cant "theme" my music, for an example: U.N Owen Was Her? Is completly made from Castelvania samples. When I do it this way, I can make sure that my tunes are uniqe. ^_^


Also, thanks for the feedback, I like =D

I love the two-step kick you did with your Bad Apple arrangement
