Good song. But I got more of a CMI feeling, from like Blood Island when he's at the beach. I'm considering making a song as well. I've been into music for a long time but each time I try to compose something I just put it aside because I don't feel it's good enough. My dad uses Sonar, Kontakt and Miroslav as well so I'm aware of the power of them!
And I have to admit that this is better than the original one, I'm not joking.
What do you mean "original"? It dosn't really match another song besides maybe Plunder Island. But just a little. Or did you mean the 20 seconds of what was there before on Flotsam? Either way, Thanks for the compliment! lol
Magwill, if you need any help, I'm here. I can send you some midi's over of what I wrote so it can give you a little idea of how to get going. I don't know.

That would be awesome It would be cool to know what instruments are being used. I especially love the bassoon in for example Scumm Bar in EMI. It would also be interesting to know how you think when you compose something that is supposed to sound a bit like another piece, but not give a feeling of a carbon copy. From trying out a bit on my guitar I know that it works nice to play only a few notes of a familiar melody, to proceed with your own stuff. However I usually get into more depressing medieval melodies
I guess the key is to think of all the instruments together when composing. I sit there with my guitar and get angry when it doesn't come out perfect I guess... I've been trying to learn how to play the piano (got a simple MidiStart-2 with velocity sensitive keys) but it's so hard when you are used to playing guitar where there is always a link between what your left hand does and what your right one does!
