Re: More Classical Music

finding out who creates midis is a pain when you didnt get the midi from an original source though ffffffffff. getting permission from original composers if its live shouldnt be asll that hard.

how's that upload btw izzy? once thats done i wouldnt mind contacting composers to get permission for stuff

Let me try it again.

Re: More Classical Music

I pretty much like your list Izzy, even though I think you could have inserted some of Bach's fugues xD But hey, we can't cover it all.

also, WTF xD Fur Elise hasn't been added to FFR yet lol ? God, that's one of the most played classical piano piece of all time xD

Re: More Classical Music

I'm probably going to step a ton of Torley Wong stuff this weekend, since I have very little to do.

You know you want to step The Fringe Equation.

Re: More Classical Music

I reckon we should step some more technical progressive folk metal music. We have enough classical.

Re: More Classical Music

Fantasie Impromptu Op. 66...I would so love a chart/song for it in game, but we'd still have issues getting around permissions, argh. Making a .midi file is not cool either because it involves the changing of BPMs, since most .midis within public domain will be fairly constant. I have a fairly high quality sounding piano that I was using to make a(n edit to a) .midi of Revoultionary Etude for a v2, but even having a good "sounding" piano doesn't cut it. I ended up stopping - the entire song was transcribed, but adding the proper dynamics and accents was way too tedious. I think I only did around 25 seconds of it because I was also trying to make the BPM not static, and relatively close to the version of Revo in game.

And static BPM classical music makes me want to cry.

Re: More Classical Music

Totally didn't know this until she actually told me lol. I think she was under the impression that her music was already in the game.

Only problem is, 90% of good classical songs that people would enjoy listening to cannot be condensed to 4 keys, it's just a mess.

This is the BIGGEST problem with fantasie impromptu. It's one of my favorite Chopin pieces, but you'd have to completely ignore the polyrhythm to make a halfway decent file, which is the entire point of the piece in the first place. I think people have been trying to chart it for a few years, I've never seen a good one. Like I said before, most of the best classical songs just can't be condensed 4 keys, while maintaining a quality file.

Re: More Classical Music

I recently found out about NickPerrin. He's not a composer from the 1500's, but I think his work qualifies for FFR fun.

Here is an example of a file I stepped while waiting for his permission to use his songs. What do you think?

EDIT: He DID give me permission to use them. Yayz for all!

Re: More Classical Music

Alkan's music would be wonderful.

Imagine this (or a shortened version of this) stepped in the game.

It'd be no problem to make or find a midi of that piece in particular. No bpm changes to my knowledge. Still, that'd be an incredibly tiring file to play. =P
