MY FIRST BOSS THEME

Posts

this was my first time trying a boss battle theme and i would like someone's opinion on it.

I like it! Kind of gives me 90/early 2000's scifi boss feels "bad special effects included." I would love to hear a "final boss" version where you add on to it to so the player feels the familiarity of the boss music, but faster or more intense to let them know this is it!

Stand back. Artist at work. I paint with enthusiasm if not with talent.

Hmm. I like it, but i can't shake the feeling that it's a bit too saturated at the beginning, those synths sure can get loud when playing together. Maybe reduce the velocity of some keys, to give it a more natural sound?
I like it - but I work with the Sci-fi/Cyberpunk genre mostly.

I like the theme, but honestly - it doesn't give me the "Boss" feeling. It more sounds like the stage or the intermission prior the boss fight (unless there is a whole lot of avoiding and running away involved). Never the less, good work. I might not be a good judge when it comes if it is perfect or needs perfection in very specific areas; so I'll leave that to others. What I can say, from a personal perspective" is that music in a boss theme should give me a couple of emotions:

"I am facing a challenge larger than life"
"I feel the sense of urgency to defeat this opponent, before I get killed"
"I am giving it all I got"

What should make it "emotionally" perfect:

"I am the chosen fudging hero! The world depends on me!"
"I can't focus on what I am hearing, but it sounds I am doing something epic"
"Crap, the next round is coming up.. this battle isn't over."

Thank you for sharing! Keep it up, it surely sounds like you might be composing the perfect boss theme very soon :)

I agree with Samgoesnuts, it does not give boss feeling. Perhaps that's because of the instruments.

But as a first boss song of yours, pretty decent. Could fit to old-school game to my mind
