What is the best song you've ever produced?

Postby Metabrony » 31 Aug 2012 16:01

It can either the best song in your opinion, or your most successful song. It can be pony, or non pony.
Either way, I'm curious to hear the best song you've ever produced.

All of my best songs are still WIPs. I'm too embarrassed of my "best" song because it really isn't very amazing at all.

While I guess my Fragmentd remix of Balloons is a little more popular I think my Makkon remix is the one that's still my best. Spent a lot of time on that one.

now it's a hard choice.

I have three, only one of them pony-related.

first of all, the song everyone seems to like

Dear princess celestia: by making this song, I realized that people like what they know, therefore making more generic music is more likely to get appreciated by mainstream


the song i like the most myself

I was trying to make a track similar to deadmau5's "slip", and also i thought "why does anything need a buildup, when you can just make your music energetic and fun from the beginning, even if it's a "club" mix"


and the most succesful one:

the only song that ended up on eqd, gave me 30 subs,blahblahblah
i still hate my voice.


now it's time to listen to everyone's songs in this thread
[00:27:11] <@z0r8> you are voiced, now shut up

Whatever my newest song is... but i'm not sure what my newest song is.
Well I'm pretty much done with this site (it wasn't about the April Fool's joke I actually loved that). If for some reason somebody wants to contact me or something (not like any of you even care lol):

As of now, probably my Remix War track, but I think my Soft Spectrum entry will be better when it's done. Can't really post either right now :lol:

I like this thread. Gives people a chance to be proud of their work rather than complain about how bad they think they are.

Oh...yeah, definitely.

I certainly didn't come here to do exactly that. W-why would I? I think all of my songs are awesome!

Here's what I consider my best song and the only I consider good enough to release. It's also the first song I produced, before I learned about sound design and mixing and all that. I just grabbed a bunch of presets and tweaked them a bit and went for it.


http://soundcloud.com/rainbow_rage/how-do-i-do-this

It was so much more simple back them. Now I get all caught up in making everything sound awesome (which isn't a bad thing) and I always end up drawing a blank when it comes time for composition. Getting keyboad may help me with this as I always seem to be able to come up with melodies when I'm at an actual keyboard

Low confidence levels tell me that I really haven't made a "best" song yet.

But, people seem to enjoy the one in my sig the most.

This the song that I'm most proud of at the moment. :D

Hmmm... Hard choice, because there's about 3 I think are my greatest.

Welp, there's this one.

http://soundcloud.com/soup2504/changelings

The intro could've been a bit less lazy, but I was working on this for far too long, and I couldn't find something else to do there that would fit with the rest of the song. The vocals could've been lower in volume, used some EQ'ing, and maybe a little bit of reeverb, but this was actually the first song I had actually completely mixed. No more limiters on the master channel, and every instrument has it's own volume, and I don't think there's a single thing at 100% volume. Although I should've made it a bit louder when I mastered it...

Then there's this, which was inspired by Skull Trumpet, and somehow ended up being a serious song. I love it.

http://soundcloud.com/soup2504/tumpet

And then we have this, which would be my most successful song other than the one that got featured on EqD.

That was so sick! I'd be happy if I could produce something half as good as that.

I haven't made anything that could be considered very good yet, but then again I only have my RWV song and the first song I made... and sadly the first one was probably better. Or at least it was more fun to make and I liked it more.

One of my favorite Balloon Party tracks, somewhere in my top 5 list!

On that note, Ruby Skies and Violet Clouds appears to be missing from your discography.

as for myself, I have a nifty garage-step style bassline that I'm waiting to use
