Ah, Dracula's Keep... Very very nice, my friend.
You should make a music request thread like the sprite one! ;)

Not many other people here make music like that, though. It'd be nice if Dark Angel, Geoffrey Gunn, and others, were more frequent posters. Then they could see the request thread. I don't want to be the only one fulfilling requests (though it seems I already do that). xD

It's about DAMN time someone did this track some justice. I am loving this CV4 kick you're on.
God I love this song.
Oh, that hurts. I'm forgotten. :'(

I meant that in regards to making a thread specifically requesting arrangements. It wasn't a personal attack. :( (I usually get E-mailed or PM'd for that sort of thing)

No offense D9, but Jorge has like 10+ years of musical experience over you. His version is really good.

None taken, I understand completely and am very well aware. Hell, he's actually the majority reason I'm getting into music. I just got little to no feedback on either of the CV4 pieces I did, with my thanks to those who did. backslash end soapbox

@Dracula9: Hey now, I gave ya feedback over Facebook, and you did get a few responses in your thread. For someone starting out, that's not bad.
Just keep at it and you'll get better. Composing and arranging should be fun and personally rewarding, and having a need to share, not about whether you get many responses or not (though I understand you want respones that give you critique so that you improve, not just 'great job' or 'it sucks', etc.). You should've seen me when I just got started (1998, when I finally got a PC and was able to afford a AWE32-compatible soundcard), there were no ways to really share your work and filesizes were an issue, so most of my old stuff was in JILost's Purpleguppy Music archive (which is great but let's face it, it's not really swarming with traffic), or some old MegaMan webpage that I don't even remember online... ...I put stuff up even though no one would really respond to it.
Funny enough, I sometimes get fan mail for works I did ages ago, when my skills were not nearly as sharp as they are now (and my instruments were so oldschool, haha).
If you're good, or if you get good, people will eventually take notice, but it's nothing you'll get right away.

I should post some of my works too.
Also, nice job on Twitter-ing Cox, Jorge ;)

Ah, you saw that, huh. He re-tweeted my Tweet, and my inbox exploded with Twitter-followers. xD
