Adventures Of Robin Hood - Richard Joseph

[Mister Ghostie]

Hi everyone,

Here's a track that I've been dabbling around with these past few months or so.
It's based on a very short tune from the Amiga game "The Adventures Of Robin Hood"
(if I remember correctly it was the theme tune to some lute player within the game)
and also inspired by the love theme "Across The Stars" from the Star Wars movies.

It's still in the early stages so would appreciate any feedback on what I have done so far.
I know that the arrangement needs a lot more work doing to make it sound more interesting
but does the overall structure of the piece work as a whole.....or is it a bit too repetitive?
Anyone have any tips or guides on how to make the instruments sound more human.

Cheers,

Rob

Hi Rob,

I'm not familiar with the original, but I like what you have so far.

Thanks, although I'm really struggling with what to do with it atm

It's probably one of those tunes that not many people are familiar with unless
they actually played the game. Anyway, if you or anyone is interested in hearing
the original version to compare with then you can download the sound file at:

To play back the file, I use WinJam which can be found at http://creamhq.de/

It's a nice little tune, sounds a little bit like greensleeves.

Very nice work Ghostie, it sounds decent enough to me, the only negative thing is it sounds a little artificial. But that's just being picky and unless you are using real instruments it can't be helped. If you can't think of anything more to add to it then release it as it is.
