That would be really cool, thanks

It’s been a while, but I’m back to put up updated files for the first four songs off Pink Lemonade. I decided against waiting until the entire album is done because I wanted to try to chart guitar/bass for a few songs.
Additionally, I’m a Ghost of Twilight now has E/M/H/X bass charts. Finally, I found a nice bass cover of Reindeer Age, which let me chart bass for an
almostfull band experience. I overlaid the cover onto the song, so bass should be much more audible in-game. I’ll try to use that method to chart instruments that are too hard to make out on their own, at the slight risk of chart accuracy.I think I’m just about done with First Temple, other than a couple songs that have neither guitar nor bass.
My next update will likely be the rest of Pink Lemonade, meaning it may be quite a long time before you hear from me again. It’s also possible I’ll update First Temple soon.
December 17, 2016 at 6:43 am #478917It’s been absolute ages
six months and two days to be exactbut I’m back and with more customs. This time, I bring expert-only drums-mostly-only charts of six songs by Them Crooked Vultures, who I’ve gotten super into recently. These are all in their early stages and have practice sections but no overdrive yet. I haven’t even playtested these yet due to lack of time.- No One Loves Me & Neither Do I – I decided to go ahead and chart guitar and bass, also expert only for now. The outro might warrant making a 2x bass pedal variant of the song. I love it when the hardest part is in the last 10 seconds of a song.
NOT - Elephants – Starts off big, and it’s got a nice beat in the verses.
- Bandoliers – Super good song. Starts off pretty simple, but watch out for the bridge.
- Reptiles – Nothing too difficult or really noteworthy other than moderately fast bursts of kicks. Super odd sounding kazootar but I love it anyway.
- Warsaw Or The First Breath You Take After You Give Up – My favorite of the bunch. It’s got a gradual speedup in there, and after that it’s a relentless beat that would probably kick my butt. Definitely my pick of the bunch. –TAKEN DOWN FOR MAJOR FIX–
- Gunman – Nothing too hard in the way of drums.
I’ll most likely get to the remaining songs on the album sometime soon.
December 17, 2016 at 11:42 am #478924I will definitely enjoy playing those once they have overdrive. Great work!

For my first update of the year, I bring an update to both No One Loves Me and Elephants. As of today, both of these now have overdrive and are full band (without vocals, of course). They’re both expert only on all instruments, though, so watch out.
Additionally, shortly after the last update I had to take down Warsaw because I made the mistake of using single yellow tom markers for long stretches of song, which were set back to single length when I quantized the notes. I’d have that back up but I really want to finish charting at least bass first.
Caligulove is charted but I honestly keep forgetting about it because I don’t care for it much. Haven’t started Interlude with Ludes for the same reason.

Trust me, I don’t plan on stopping this anytime soon. I want to see these get done as much as anyone else ” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_cheeky.001.gif” />

Today I bring to you all two
almostfull band charts of two of my favorite songs from The Presidents of the United States of America: Love Everybody and Crown Victoria. Both of these songs have guitar, bass, and drums, as well as overdrive- Love Everybody – Possibly the highest I’ve ever set a song’s BPM.
- Crown Victoria – Not a difficult song on any instrument, but it’s a wonderful song that I recommend regardless.
I know I usually don’t announce my projects, but I’m working on something a little different. I recently fell in love with The World God Only Knows, and I’ve been charting the opening song for season 1. The full 8 minutes. The drum chart is done, but lacking overdrive so I’m thinking of releasing it in my next update. I found music sheets for the full song, and so I’m also trying my hand at charting pro keys. It’s been hard as crap so far, and unrealistically time consuming, but I’ve got I think two of the six parts done relatively accurately. I won’t give an estimate on what that will be done, but I’m more than willing to work with anyone who actually knows what they’re doing with pro keys.

Today’s update is kind of big. The only new song today is The World God Only Knows, but there are also updates to older songs. But first-
- The World God Only Knows – The complete, eight minute version of the opening song to the show of the same name. I promised pro keys, but I have reached an impasse on certain parts. I may try to chart vocals since they’re such a big part of the song and seem to generally follow the same pitches as keys. Guitar is also a possibility, but I can’t hear any bass to try and chart from. The drum chart is still a lot of fun on its own and has some interesting beats.
The entire Pink Lemonade album now features overdrive and changes that range from chart and tempo map fixes to complete recreations of the song entirely. Most notably, Neoprene Byzantine now has Tacky Ornamental Slut, the end of Pink Lemonade, tacked on to the beginning and I used the album version of the song with the complete intro. Most of these songs have guitar and/or bass charts in the works.
Finally, Warsaw is back up with a fixed drum chart, overdrive, and bass. Guitar is hopefully on its way too.
- No One Loves Me & Neither Do I – I decided to go ahead and chart guitar and bass, also expert only for now. The outro might warrant making a 2x bass pedal variant of the song. I love it when the hardest part is in the last 10 seconds of a song.
