The Sound of Zackwell

[Zackwell]

I'm not really in the right state of mind to do commission
work anymore (Not that I got any in the first place.)

Thus, this is now my soundcloud link spam-page for those of you who are
interested.
The lower on the list it is, the more recent it is.

12/04/2013 - Plastic Rose
https://soundcloud.com/zackvalence/plastic-rose

23/04/2013 - The Malevolence


11/05/2013 - Dragon Night ~ The Legend

- I made this for some college work. This is track 1 out of seven, and features
a choir of just me. :3

06/06/2013 - Blind
https://soundcloud.com/zackvalence/blind
- Made this with a friend, the same as Plastic Rose. I was the vocals and the
drums.

06/06/2013 - The Sentinel
https://soundcloud.com/zackvalence/the-s...ffle-prize
- This was a prize for a raffle I put up on a different site ages ago. He
requested something Japanese/Badass/Icy, which I like to think I got quite well
here. Maybe a little loud at some points.

02/07/2013 - The Library
https://soundcloud.com/zackvalence/the-library
- A piece of the OST for my 10 minute game entry. Hope this will work up a
little buzz for it.

31/07/2013 - Generic Heartbreak song

- Generic. Just put this together to prove a point to a friend. Feel free to
give crits, I might develop this piece further.

17/08/2013 - The Last Piano

- "Through me, men would bear their hearts to the world. Their hands
became a portal more profound than voice; and if a picture tells a story of
one-thousand words, then with my heartstrings men have painted a million
pictures."

30/12/2013 - Night Falls on Mori
https://soundcloud.com/zackvalence/night-falls-on-mori
- This is a piece requested by Literarygoth, who I'm not sure is on this site.
Anyways, it's for her project, 'Dacian'. I started this OST in 2011 and only
recently was asked to resume work on it. This is the first new track since way
back then.

30/01/14 - T3G Just Another

A friend and I started a little band a while ago and we make stuff like this.
It's not really videogame orientated so I refrained from posting it here. But
then I thought that actually, these tracks are starting to sound pretty good.
So I'm sharing them here with you guys. T3G does have a soundcloud and facebook page if you'd
be kind enough to follow; we promise you wont be disappointed.

04/03/2014 - T3G Mary Jane

For those of you who don't get the slang, it's a song about a nice girl who helps lonely people.

04/03/2014 - T3G Tale of Three Ladies

Another one from T3G. We'd had the idea for this song ages ago and only decided to finish it today. Tried adding strings to the mix.

04/03/2014 - Eternal Rain
https://soundcloud.com/zackvalence/eternal-rain
For this one I looked for some talent beyond myself. I found a wonderful female vocalist who goes by the alias of AsiaNeko. She agreed to sing for me after my initial attempt with a genderbender plugin didn't cut the mustard at all.

16/12/2014 - Things that go bump in the Nightmare
https://soundcloud.com/zackvalence/thing...-nightmare
A battle theme trapped inside a Dark Dream.

[LagunaX1]

Just wondering if you only do classical music or music for this genre? Like are you able to do more crazy drum and bass stuff like the sort of music you'd get in a fast paced side scroller? I guess I mean the sort of stuff you'd find in Alien Hominid or Super Meatboy crossed with crazy beats and such like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txlEuZmQN...re=related.

No need to listen to the whole thing, the first few minutes are what I'm talking about, the more faster crazy stuff. Also try to ignore the vocals lol

You also mention a special offer for commissioning an entire OST, what is the offer?

We don't really need to get any music right at this moment, it's just I want to get ready for when we do by listing all available options.

Anyway! Awesome stuff! Good luck with your work!

Updated this thread to be more of a showcase than a commission station.

New track 'Plastic Rose'
Me on the vocals, a friend on the guitar.

Lyrics are as follows:

"Plastic Rose"

Summer time is here again

Picks me up and calls me friend

The moon will shed a single tear

The stars all fade and leave me here



Life will bloom and death will die

Break the chains and cut the ties

You'll never leave, you told me so

Shining red amongst the snow



The days feel long but life goes on

My loneliness has come and gone

Are you real, for you seem fake

Without the toll that time should take



Plastic rose how can your petals glow?

Trapped in the dark with no room to grow

Let it go, it's alright to cry.

Live life without living then you wither and die

Plastic rose can you feel no pain?

Bleach in the sun and tatter in rain.



Maybe it was meant to be

Death picked you but life picked me

Can you crawl out from your shell

Your self-created plastic hell



Can you see, or can you hear

Caught inside your web of fears

No-one knows you no-one cares

Your back will break, your skin will tear



Are you safe inside your home?

Disconnected telephone

Perhaps you're safe upon a shelf

But who protects you from yourself?



Plastic rose how can your petals glow?

Trapped in the dark with no room to grow

Let it go, it's alright to cry.

Live life without living then you wither and die

Plastic rose can you feel no pain?

Bleach in the sun, tattered by rain.



Plastic rose why can't your petals glow?

You're trapped in the dark with no room to grow

Let me go, you're starting to cry.

Too late to live, so you wither and die

Plastic rose can you feel my pain?

You tried to change but you wound up the same.



Plastic rose why can't your petals glow?

You're trapped in the dark with no place to go

Let me go, you're starting to cry.

Too late to live, so you wither and die

Plastic rose can you feel my pain?

You tried to change me but I wound up the same.



Summer time is here again.

[The Dark Squid]

Not listening on headphones right now so I'll check again later, but I think the "kshh" sound on the left that echoes needs a lowpass filter to help it fit into the song. Right now it's so bright it feels like it's right in your face while the rest is at a distance. :)

Other than that I think you did a good job! It's pretty solemn.

- Generic. Just put this together to prove a point to a friend. Feel free to give crits, I might develop this piece further.

Took me less than an hour. Don't worry about me, I'm not heartbroken or anything, just wanted to show a friend how cliche these kinds of songs can be.
