woah, the one and only sleestacks... "famous" team bazaar shitposter... having SKILLS? completely unheard of!
but if you didn't know, I write music and occasionally write short stories. granted, do not expect a lot of quality - my formal education on music composition hits exactly 0 hours of classes, I never learned creative writing in school, I've only really been actively practicing these two things for about a year, and I'm still a high school student who has barely the time management skills to allow for practicing these things at all. but I need somewhere to dump my stuff for everyone to see and maybe even get a hint of feedback, so here we go:
-- BeepBox music (WARNING!!! DANGEROUSLY TERRIBLE INSTRUMENT QUALITY) --
by the way these are uploaded to vocaroo, as I don't feel like doing everything needed to setup a youtube channel when most of these are just WIPs - vocaroo is free and doesn't require you to download it to listen on any platform, so I'm using it.
and, for a bit more info on how I make my covers - I don't really stick to the source material 100%. I find it a lot more fun to just take the melody and do my own thing with a lot of the accompanying instruments to make it feel a bit more unique. i'll take inspiration and often have similar accompanying instruments, but things will almost never be 100% the same, sometimes even with the melody.
Taken For a Ride - Tally Hall (WIP)
WIP, might finish later but if I do i'll remake it in a different, higher quality program. probably my best song to come out of Beepbox, at least so far. oh, and by the way, I did a bit of experimenting with this one - I wanted to see how the song might have felt if some of the slow parts were replaced with more upbeat ones, so you will see that that's different from the original.

Lacunosa Town - Pokemon Black and White
finished. kinda meh, but at least it's done.
Exported / Editable / Original
Route 216 - Pokemon Platinum (scrapped)
gave up on this one, probably never finishing. started this a few months ago and only had a rough idea of what even basic things like chords were (tbh I still barely know), and there were so many problems that I just lost all motivation.

Market Mingling - sleestacks
look, an original! i made this like 6 months ago and wouldnt consider it to be to the same standard of quality of most of my other music, but hey, it exists! this is basically just discount kakariko village, but I made it so it goes in the post.

-- MuseScore music --
I've been trying to get better at actually playing music recently, as I just purchased a keyboard a few days ago and want to be able to compose more efficiently with it. thus, my MuseScore skills are currently being trained so that I can play things that I make myself:
Jungle City - A Dance of Fire and Ice (WIP)
the song I'm currently working on. the ending is absolutely terrible, but that's because its a WIP right now and I'm too lazy to crop the audio file to at least have it cut out when all of the finished instruments are playing.
Exported / Original / i'll edit this with the .mscz download later, but right now I cant access my google drive
and that's it for now! in the future I hope to work more with FL studio to make my music, but at the moment these two programs are all that I can really use. they're good enough for focusing on and practicing specifically my composition so that I don't have to worry about production though, which is nice.
as for the writing... i'll post it later, but I promise there will be some half decent short stories here - some Pokemon related, and some not.
