KoeN- Video Game Music Composition in FL Studio 7: ‘Senses’
Author: admin // Category: Electronic Drum
Hi Everybody!
Most of you know me as that guy who loves playing his electronic drum kit- and though you are right, my love for music extends far beyond rubber pads and wooden sticks.
I’ve borrowed a midi keyboard from a close friend, and am currently learning my way around FL Studio, combining saxophone, drums, guitar and computer music composition to create my very own masterpieces (well, maybe masterpieces ONE day!)
This track is one I have been toying with for a while. In it i have combined my love for gaming with my love for music, and i have written a series of riffs inspired by my two favourite video game composers, Frank Klepacki (Red Alert 1 and 2) and Philippe Vachey (Relentless and Twinsens Odyssey, the two greatest video games of all time IMO, hehe).
I fleshed one of my riffs out, and this is what i came up with.
Feedback is GREATLY appreciated as always! I hope to make many more tracks like it (as well as a remix or two; Daft Punk, anyone?)
Also, for all you sax lovers, I noticed a severe lack of sax players on YouTube, and though i don’t play saxophone particularly well, I hope to chuck up something funky soon!
Oh, and to save everyone a couple of questions, here are some vital stats:
Track: Senses (3:26)
Guitar: Open C Yamaha Pacifica /w Guitar Rig
Drums: Yamaha DTXPLORER /w Roland SPDS & EZ Drummer
Piano: Midistudio-2 midi controller /w FL Keys
Music Software: Fl Studio 7
Video Capture Software: CamStudio

My Dream Electric Drum Kit (FINISHED)
Jungle / drum and bass mix - The everyman mix.
Because no-one does it quite the same as anyone else . . .
1.STUDIO ONE LIK — KROME AND TIME
2.THE LICENSE — KROME AND TIME
3.CODE RED — CONGO NATTY
4.SET SPEED — KRUST
5.CALLING ALL THE PEOPLE — APHRODITE (x2)
6.SPIRITUAL AURA — ENGINEERS WITHOUT FEARS
7.EVERYMAN — D.R.S. / KENNY KEN
sound quality isn’t great, needles are 10 years old, records are worn etc. not as tight or smooth as I would have liked, hopefully there is enough in there to hold your attention for the full 10. Before anyone points out the merits of a cross fader, mine don’t work!
