About: I started fiddling around with FL this afternoon and suddenly got the wild idea to begin to create a full-blown soundtrack for a kart racer as my next project. I always loved video game soundtracks that had different genres and styles for each character theme (Think F-Zero Soundtrack), so I'm giving it a shot myself.

This is the theme of the Red Rebels. If it were made into an actual game, the Red Rebels would be the fastest characters, but their turning would suck. The characters also originally hail from Mars, making the "Red" suit their name even further.

Enjoy the crazy energy as you imagine these guys racing along the track. Expect more tracks from this imaginary kart racer in my throughout this year.

Re: Red Rebels

I pictured them more of a 4-star speed, 2-star handling group.

Re: Red Rebels

It sounds like a cross of cornandbeans infused with epicness only you can seem to deliver.

Nice song.

Re: Red Rebels

I can't imagine a fun file coming out of this.

Good song, though.

Re: Red Rebels

Yeah, that's one of the main reasons I was hesitant on releasing it. If anything, it's something to break the composing block, or at least break the iron bond of the homework demon for a bit.

Re: Red Rebels

Yeah I previewed a pitch relevant file and stuff.

It's unfortunately all 8th notes, so at best it'd be a file that was far below Victims and Martyrs.

Great song though.

lmao gee i wonder why your files dont get accepted

Re: Red Rebels

It's unfortunately all 8th notes,

Hate to break it to you, but a 16th note at 173 BPM is typically going to sound like ****. Unless you have it going at an insane arp speed, it doesn't really work out. Truth be told, I've done it before, but not before a lot of scrutiny to make it sound right.

Re: Red Rebels

I'm not knocking the song.

I'm just saying that all-8ths at this speed isn't the full material for a fun and difficult stepfile.

That's all. If someone made it they would have a hard time making it both.

Re: Red Rebels

That and pure, nonstop enjoyment. It's one of the reasons that I know a song is done is the pure and simple fact that it sounds good.

God, I love composing. Can't wait to do this for the rest of my life.

Re: Red Rebels

This is a pretty well done song. I really like it alot

Re: Red Rebels

It was good (as usual)...but it was lacking something very important that would have made the song so much more epic.

I guess it lacks...drive, or the feeling of being pumped.

agree.

but it was still a pretty good song
