    So... how well received are pad songs/packs on here?



    This is a trance/stream pack I've been feverishly toiling over for the past week or so. It consists of 10 songs of varying lengths (3-8 minutes). If you're familiar with Xynn's "Long Version Trance Song" stream pack you know what to expect. This is normally the part where I'd ask people to beta this for me before making an official release (I'm nearing completion... but then again, is a file every TRULY complete?), but several people have already generously volunteered to do so.

    With that said, this is my first time trying to release a pack in a legitimate manner.

    The song list and lengths are below. Note: *** denotes that joe#2 made the graphics for me out of the kindness of his heart.


    4 AM (Adam K & Soha Remix) - Kaskade /// 5m 29s


    A Fog Lit Street - Sp33fy M@n /// 4m 00s


    Back to You (Aly and Fila Remix) - DJ Shah /// 8m 45s


    Ligaya - Gouryella /// 3m 28s


    Mansion (Original Mix) - Gareth Emery & Ashley Wallbridge /// 6m 46s


    Moments in Love (Agamemnon Project Remix) - Anjuna /// 6m 06s


    Surreal (En-Motion Remix) - Free Radical /// 6m 03s


    Surrender (Original Mix) - Tranquility Base /// 6m 32s


    ***The Sorrow of the Islands (Xacla Northern Lights Remix) - Xarva /// 5m 17s


    ***Time for Dust - void /// 4m 01s


    ~~~

    Original post (for those curious):

    I know FFR is focused mostly on KB charts, but I've been working on a pad pack and was wondering if I should release it on here. That's about it.

    Also: if the answer is "aye" I'll change the subject heading and content for said pad pack.

    EDIT: Well, that's two "aye"s and one "maybe." I'll take that.

          Collaborative sounds so much nicer... so much more... communal. :> As much as I like stepping doujin music, I'm attempting something only slightly less exhausted.

          Ideas abound, but I'm not too good at making strictly KB charts.

                i just see the font get (over)used so much. it's like the second coming of comic sans to me now. just a pet peeve of mine, i suppose.

                oh, and you're welcome

                  Bleeding Cowboys is the overused western font, much like papyrus is the overused eroded font.

                  Also work on your contrast a little, the text needs to stand out from the background.

                      those banners don't look completely terrible. you just need some practice, that's all.

                          I had no idea it was so popular! I just saw it on dafont and thought it looked "streamy."

                          But yeah, the contrast could be better in the first three banners. I've been trying to make better banners... you can tell how I improved with each one (e.g. "Mansion" was the first banner I made for this pack... "Ligaya" was the last). I'll fix 'em up in time. Thanks for the pointers and constructive crit, I'll take any of it.

                              I used to only play index. In fact, I downloaded one of IcyWorld's packs once and then deleted it because I thought jumpstream was a joke. Another time, I downloaded a mixed pack of ~60 songs and only kept the 4 that were possible on index.
