Oh, haha. Should've just asked me. I've got a lot of MML examples for that game :|

[Coda]

It turns out Mabinogi's MML support is too limited for it to have been a very useful test. I found other stuff.

A couple of the test files that I was able to adapt during development:

One I arranged myself based on The One by Babymetal, it's very obviously not done:

The last one I did in particular because I'm trying to learn how to write music in that style.

[Coda]

Been a while since I've done anything here, hasn't it?

Not an original work, just a bit of a remix of the Club Leader theme from the Pokemon TCG game for Game Boy. (And it's barely even a remix, really more of a remastering, since it's basically the same as the original, just better.)

[Coda]

If it had been a while since I'd posted anything, it'd been even longer since I've written any original music.

I cannot express the utter joy it was to have something like this come together after such a dry spell. I was trying to make something inspired by Flight of the Bumblebee, since my Ludum Dare game is insect-themed. This is what came out instead. You can still hear it in there, but it went a very different direction.

Amusingly, I didn't start studying music theory in earnest until long after I stopped writing. I've always written intuitively and this piece is no exception, but while I was filling in the harmony I had to take a step back and figure out how the heck it was working. And in the end, I don't quite know enough about analysis and functional harmony to understand what it's doing in a couple places, and I'm the one who wrote it!

That is quite well done! Clearly I know who to talk to if we need music for Trisphee games in the future. :)

:] *hums at 0:58* x] It's cool! I can see this being a mini-boss battle or something.

Not too far off! Here's the game it's for: https://trisphee.com/forums/showpost...2&postcount=14

I wouldn't count on it. ^^() I've written two songs in the last six years. I can try if it comes up, but I can't make promises.

I found out about an AI that's been trained to write music in various styles, so I threw the first few bars of that last song into it and generated a few different continuations... it's... actually kind of impressive.

I expected it to work. I know what AI can do these days. But actually HEARING it in my own style is kind of... visceral.

[Merskelly Metalien]

I like it. -U-
What if you use all the variations in separate verses of ONE song? OuO Like, it'll be 'wow'! :T Hmm, but maybe credit the AI? Do you have to credit AI? /:T

Very cool. Tech art is still art. When you say "generated"... What sort of program did you use?
