Plans for this week's video (+ future ideas)
Added 2018-01-04 12:15:03 +0000 UTC
I actually had a bit of trouble deciding what to do for my first 2018 video. I decided to experiment with a desert/lava style over world theme. More on the groovy/gruff side of things (think of something like mor ardain from xenoblade 2 or something from Dragon Ball fight themes). It's been a bit of a challenge so far, but I'm hoping it comes out great! I am happy with the progress.
After that, I'm going to try and put myself ahead of schedule if possible. I would like to have a backlog of videos done so I can spend more time making tabs and other rewards (also so I can rest ease my mind a little and brainstorm ideas for longer than a few days). Some ideas I have for future How-To videos:
Grassy Overworld Theme
Authentic Desert Theme
Some Battle Themes
Dark/Ambient Forest Theme
Something that a waltz theme can fit in. Perhaps a sky level or another water level? I've been learning how to write a waltz song in the major scale, so I thought it would be fun to try out sometime!
Final Boss Theme (Phase 2) - If this one comes out the way it's played in my head, it'll definitely be a new favorite. I got a choir program that I really want to try out.
Shady Cicada (Swing Rock) Theme - Yup. A song in one of my two main styles. Should be fun!
That's all for now. I should be able to get you guys the free early download tomorrow! Stay frosty!

Well I'm glad you like the sound of them all! CS's idea is fantastic as well! Seems like a fun way to shake things up. Either way, all of these ideas will 100% happen very soon, so stay tuned!

If that works out, I could even do one for standard music genres as. I might just do this very very soon. Thanks for the suggestion, man! Just need to figure out if I should use an old (and already established) leitmotif or make a new one.
