That’s a really cool way of achieving the sort of sound you’re trying to attain :3 I could certainly give it a go! I don’t know if I would be very successful because I have no technical knowledge >.< I can’t even read music, haha. Everything I do is just by ear, but I can’t name notes, so I’d be sat there basically just trying to match the sounds x3
It’s still great advice though :3 Even though the types of soundtracks I’ve made for my projects in the past aren’t exactly what I’d usually listen to, they’re definitely still somewhat influenced by the things I do listen to in that they have a darker sort of feel to them.
For the project where I want to try and make an OST with a similar sound to your one here, I guess I should try to find more music like it to get inspiration from :3 Making darker tracks comes naturally to me because they mimic my emotions, but I struggle with lighter, happier tracks immensely, haha. I should listen to tracks with a more relaxed and brighter atmosphere rather than always fuelling my dark side, haha.
I would never have known in a million years that this was your first OST btw! My first one is kind of awful, haha. There are a few tracks in it that I can say I’m mostly content with, but the majority I would completely remake because they’re just bad >.<
