Does that mean I should also work on one?

I tried making one, but it sounded nothing like a menu theme, since I couldn’t find a good progression.

Also, I’m leaving for a week so I’m not going to be active for a while.

I may have ordered a crossfade tool from a shop for a review order and it worked so maybe we could do a low pass filter on songs as a separate audio file

(scratch forums are broken and quotes are too)
alr, thx for letting us know corgtheporg

cool, you dont really have the power to order things for us. we're going to shelve that, and ill talk to the managers about it. if you keep doing these things that are out of your position, i'm going to have to give you a warning. but look, the idea is good, ill definitely keep that in mind

Aim for J-Pop for main themes

Firstly H E L P THE EXAMPLES LMBOOO-

Voice Actors:

Years of experience: 0 basically, I've been doing my own little things for a couple years, but never anything with other people.
Skill level (1-10): Solid 4 :thumbs up:
Idk what voice actors do, what characters do you typically do?: DRAMATIC or Sarcastic characters. I'm very “grimly” or cynical sounding.
Strengths: My enthusiasm :3
Weaknesses: I sound wayyyy younger then I am ;-;
Example of your best work: N/A
What's something special about your voice?: I have a very unique accent, being it's a mix of like… 5 different accents. LOL
Who's someone you admire for their voice acting? I really like Alejandro Saab, Sean Schemmel, Roger Craig Smith, Shameik Moore, and Jack De Sena, to name a few.
Extras: I cannot stress enough how young I sound it's ridiculous.


Singers:

Years of experience: My entire life, so like… 10+ years lets say LMBO-
Skill level (1-10): I would personally say 7, but that's debatable.
Favorite singers: I really admire people with INSANE voice control (something I struggle with), so people like Tory Kelly, Meghan Trainor, Arya Starr, Whitney Houston, OR3O, Annapantsu, Will Stetson, literally ANYONE from EPIC: The Musical. Can you TELL I listen to too many yootube music creators LOLLLL
Range (if applicable): Mezzo-Soprano (I think 0-0')
Style of singing (Rap, whatever regular singing is called, opera, etc): Um, lemme think. I sing Folk style songs really well, sea shanty's I'm good at, romance songs are fine, vocaloid style songs I can do, my rapping is mid, musical songs are FIRE and I love singing those. So yeah that stuff.
Strengths: I'm practicing my runs, so maybe that?
Weaknesses: Vocal control ;-;
Example of your best singing work: I'm really proud of this cover: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/923867529/
What's something special about your singing?: I think the songs I pick. I choose to sing songs I can relate and empathize with, and I feel that helps me come off as more sincere sounding!
Who is someone you'd love to sing for?: THE WORLD *ebik guitar music*
Who's someone on this team that you'd like to work with?: I like all of y'all honestly LOL
Extras: hi i'm ahsoka and you're watching disney channel *ding ding ding ding* *twirls wand*

Prepare yourself a paragraph XDDD

K-pop

- Punchy Drums
- Blends multiple genres (EDM, hip-hop, rap, pop, electronic, etc) into one song, heavily inspired by Western music
- simple-ish chord progressions, Western chord progressions
- Mixes English and Korean into lyrics
- can sound very full, drums resonate
- Uses a lot of retro old instrument/synths from like the 80s or 90s or idk old times and transforms them into something new and modern

J-pop

- Very complex, “spicy” chords (dim, sus, 7th, 9th, Aug, etc)
- Complex Chord Progressions (multiple chords, not just the 4 C, G, Am, F. I'm talking something like B(flat)Maj7, F, Fsus4, F, C7, F, Gm7, Am7, F, C… Lots of chords, not just 4 in one measure.)
- Chords heavily inspired by American Blues
- sort of punchy drums
- Loves electric guitar
- Usually sticks to Japanese, some sprinkle in english

Both

- Very happy sounding (sometimes)
- Uses synths, can be very electronic
- FAST
- Extremely complex, not for the beginner composer
- Key changes range from semi-common to common
- Crazy Harmonies


What is the “K-pop” sound?
- Blend of multiple genres, upbeat, heavily inspired by Western EDM and Pop songs
What is the “J-pop” sound?
- Complex chord progressions, upbeat, some influences of Western songs, surprises/unpredictable

This is coming from an absolute noob btw, so don't trust 100% what I say. It's just a compilation of what I've observed as well as what I've heard

Put it in a project and send it over!

School is starting up again next Tuesday but I will put a similar amount of effort into my side projects at home. I have a proper schedule and everything for my homework so I won't miss too many beats here.

I like it! Only thoughts is that it's a bit synthy. Can you get it a bit more j-popy? With more instruments that aren't synths?
