::invasion:: (working title)

Ok, I am making a song called ::invasion:: (working name)

So far it sounds pretty good.

It is meant to be a boss song, with parts at 240 bpm. Not fast, but still pretty quick.

It has no and it has that kind of sound that is like a creepy alien abduction.

Here are the first 32 seconds. I will add more stuff.

Alot of the textures are actually synthsizer tracks generated by GarageBand

Suggest a batter name, invasion is kind of generic.

Opinion?

It needs a better beat. I can't see myself stomping arrows to that, especially not as a boss song; I don't understand how the steps would go in with it.

I increased volume on the creepy piano part. The part that goes DAH Dah DAH Dah.

Increase the base volume by a ton.

Have a high hat beat on every 8th, keep the base drum about as is, add a rimshot on the downbeat of every 1, upbeat of every 2, and downbeat of every 4, and a muted crash on the upbeat of every 4.

For the highhat is it pedal, openclose, open, or half open

EDIT: I didn't understnad the upbeat and downbeat part, so I added some cool sounding things. It is so awesome sounding now!

Heres the new version, I needed to reduce volume alot because it was exporting all chunky.

The first part to me feels nearly finished. THe second part needs improvement.

The song is very very basic, too slow to be a boss song unless you're going to chaotic-step it (which would require you to go off-beat, which will piss people off).

It doesn't have enough substance to arrow-smash to, in the first place.

invasion isn't a bad title. "invert" came to mind while listening to the song.

Overall, you're either going to have to add some more complex beats, speed it up, or totally revamp the song. Or just pump the song up a little bit and make it a normal 8-footer.

It is at 120 BPM. 240 BPM sounds awesome and I just need to stretch out a feel parts.

Sounds almost ambient. Multiply the BPM by 1.6 and add a crapload of random snares and hihats

hmm...I wonder where you got inspiration to make a song called Invasion...

I agree with Flamebait and Discoman, i can't see this being dance-able, let alone a boss song. it doesn't need to be sped up, but it needs to be more intense.
