Since I learned (enough) about how to use Furnace Tracker, I thought I'll do some arrangements and probably some originals too. First one I've completed so far is Sonic 2's title theme. Originally composed by Masato Nakamura, and arranged by me
BTW, I should get this off my chest: If you are willing to use any of my arrangements/original tracks for anything, I'm fine with that as long as you credit me and/or get permission from me.
Alright? Cool!

Original compositions, as well as ports and remixes of existing songs, can be posted in this forum, as long as they are in VGM format of course.

Re: Jlooky's Originals and Arrangements
Here's another arrangement of a song that was for a Game Boy game called "4-in-1 Funpak: Volume II". This is an NES arrangement, and it was originally composed by Marshall Parker.

Re: Jlooky's Originals and Arrangements
An arrangement of one of my favorite MIDIs, Passport! It was originally composed by Passport Designs. This one is using the Sega Genesis' sound chips plus the Sega CD's RF channels, although I really only used them for drums. Anyhow, enjoy!

Re: Jlooky's Originals and Arrangements
Here's an arrangement of the Body Count title theme using the RF5C164 chip. This is my first fully sampled thing I've ever done on Furnace, and it was really fun, especially with taking more advantage of stereo! Originally composed by Steve Collett.

Re: Jlooky's Originals and Arrangements
In honor of Geoff Follin's recent passing, I've decided to do a Game Gear arrangement of one of my favorite works of his, Spot: The Video Game (Game Boy). As always, it was made through Furnace.

Re: Jlooky's Originals and Arrangements
It's been a while since I posted here. Here's a Sega Genesis arrangement of "Ohayou Sayori!" from Doki Doki Literature Club! (please don't judge me I have a weird DDLC fascination as of late)

Re: Jlooky's Originals and Arrangements
Those are some very nice arrangements! I really enjoyed listening to them.
If I should nitpick about something, then I'd say that the drum track in "Spot The Video Game - Title Theme" is a bit plain, but that's an issue already present in the original song.
The drum sounds could maybe fade out a bit faster to reduce the amount of static throughout the song.
(The song is also noticeably louder than the other songs, which is a bit annoying when it's in a playlist.)
