Hi you guys,
this is my first Pokémon composition. I made it a couple of years ago when I wanted to create an own Pokémon game. Quite narcistic that I wanted to be the 4th of the Elite 4 (Mark, expertized in Psychic Legendaries). I hope you like it, it's written in the style of Pokémon, with lots of dim chords and so on.

Update
Another song I composed today, it's for the Pokémon game I wanted to make. It's the music of the starter town, hope you like it

Hope you like it.
I almost feel like asking what game it is from. It even sounds familiar, very, very Pokémon-ish. If it hadn't been for the fact that I've played every Pokémon game to ridiculum and beyond, I'd seriously believe that this was Masuda's work (or whoever is the composer now).
Great job. Really.
Yeah, I finished the Orchestra Version and I love it.
Hope you like it too

I know. I will fix them all in a while. But not now, now I'm leaving for Greece.
New compositions and a lot!
More that are almost finished, but I won't upload them until they're finished.
They're all for a Pokémon game I'm workin' on just for fun. I have to explain some things about a couple of them.
Approaching the Elite 4: http://www.mediafire.com/?myzgyftddy5
The Battle! Elite 4 is a cool one. It works in the same way as Gohdan from The Wind Waker (Zelda), but then a little more complicated. The right hand starts a melody and continues playing a long melody. The left hand copies the right hand melody, but the one 4 measures earlier. Then the bass guitar follows that melody 8 measures later. Which means the following: (RH = right hand, LH = left hand and BG = bass guitar)
RH A B C D
LH A B C
BG A B
Very hard to compose, but a lot of fun.

Feedback please =D
I've heard most, if not all of these, and I have to say, they are like cut from a Pokémon game, or music that never made it to the final game, it's so much in the style of Pokémon, without being a copy of anything.
Great work. Even brings back memories.
sweet stuff! i like some of these much more than what they have in the actual games
Wow, you guys that were like the best compliments I ever got :'(
Haha no need to get sentimental.
But thanks a lot ;)
Which one do you like most?
I really enjoyed listening it but I think if you could use more instruments the quality would be much better.
Yeah I know, I just don't know which instruments to add. Like to have some help with that :-\
And I have a limited choice because of the MIDI...
what kind of program do you use for that?

I compose the melody on my keyboard and then I compose the rest of the instruments with Sibelius 5. And because few of NSM members have Sibelius, I export it as a MIDI-file and save the sheets as a PDF file.
I only listened to a couple of your compositions but I must say I really really like the Krator Town! Good job!
Thanks, Krator is really Pokémon-ish :D
But still, I'd like to ask if someone could lend me a hand for the thing dahans mentioned.

How much does Sibelius 5 cost? Or do you use a cracked version?

Sibelius 5 costs $599, but I've got the cracked version and I'm very happy with it =D
But can you help me? You seem to know a lot about Pokémon.

Wow...you are just a FOUNTAIN of bad remarks and downer comments... :P But, really, Sir, these are truly great and magnificient pieces of work! ;) I'm sure that there is a new Pokemon game in the works SOMEWHERE, and if you sent some of those in, i bet a few would be considered (I know If it were up to me i would throw more than a few in) ;)
Add-In
Btw: I would suggest a few name changes for the tone of the songs, really. These are just my opinion, but, I would change the Shadow Town song into the Tune for the Antagonist's Base song. Now, Sky City theme would be excellent as the Shadow Town theme OR the Antagonist Battle for the Grunts/Mid-Ranks. Now, the Battle! themes are both amazing, but, a little switch up with them is also something i felt. The Elite 4 Battle! would be best put in as your Legendary Pokemon battle (in my opinion) and the Gym Leader Battle! would sound great as either the Elite 4 Battle! or your Antagonist Leader battle, since it seems more driving and less mysterious as the Elite 4 :) These are just things that came to mind when i was listening :) The songs themselves are amazing, though! :)
Wow. These sound like they could be cut from a Pokemon game!!
That's like the biggest compliment you could give =)
Thanks!
