Hellu, I made a fallout song / themed EP

First time out of the vault
Hi.
I'm not that much of an active member here, I've just posted some bugs about the Fallout 2 restoration project in the past.
Anyway.. I wanted to drop a line here about a track I made based on the fallout series. Since this isn't exactly fan art, but music, I'm posting it here and not in the fan art forum.

Advertising? Nah, I just wanna share this with the fallout community. :)

You'll find it at

lol, wrong forum

also, music is typically considered art, though yours isn't lol
 
I've heard worse industrial. But I still don't like it.


/goes back listening to Hank Williams :mrgreen:
 
Woooooah, harsh, I thought it was decent, Im a real fallout fanboy though who doesnt mind house like this.
 
Don't like this kind of music but for people who do, that might be interesting. That's a scarce kind of fan art, by the way. Mostly you get pictures, poems and novels. And novels, poems and pictures all over again ;)
 
Disco music for fallout universe ? Congratulations, you have just proven that you know nothing about Fallout
 
Congratulations - you've just proven you know nothing about tolerance ;) Indeed, the genre doesn't fit a bit but how many Easter Eggs do you have in Fallout 2? And I'd say the lyrics and the vocal fit the 'universe', or the climate I would say, very well or at least well enough. It's the music that makes me not want to hear this song again. For Fallout I'd prefer something Cynthia-Harell-styled, with all the loftiness. (Anyone here knows the "Snake Eater" song for Metal Gear Solid 3? Perhaps not THAT pompous, but...). Though about this song here I have one thing to compliment; the way the music overlaps with the intro from Fallout 2. Could've made the latter a little shorter, though. And, like I said, actually how many Fallout-themed songs do you get? That's some breakthrough thing, making one. Even in this crappy genre, no offense :P
 
Fallout 2's easter eggs are considered over-the top and pretty much non-canon.

Just sayin'.
 
Tolerance ?


I think this is exactly the attitude which is killing the gaming industry right now. Tolerance ? Beyond what point ? You come to this forum where fallout 1-2 are treated as something holy and you expect tolerance right now when the franchise is being annihilated? I think you are the one who lacks tolerance.
 
Tolerance to what, if I may ask. The community which doesn't like Fallout 3? I don't like it either. And what does that have to do with this single case of a Fallout song? I was talking about this point only. I don't think people will find this genre of music suitable for Fallout, but if this means that the man has no knowledge of Fallout, then the definition of 'knowledge' is a bit counter-intuitive ;) Come on, let's not come down to flaming each other. I see your point, and I share it to an extent - and actually to the point when you accuse him of having no knowledge of FO. That's a bit too harsh. I could as well repeat after you 'disco music for Fallout universe?', and, well, I pretty much did ;)

That's some point. Maybe I've made a wrong example, but still, it's like having no tolerance for white guys in rap music. Not that I like it, whew.
 
Allow me to elaborate then. The word "knowledge" may have a lot of connotations. It may refer to facts stored inside your skull. Dry facts, pieces of informations etc.

The other however is that you feel something, you have a grasp on it, you understand it.

No flaming meant, the way I formalized my statement may have been a bit vague and obscure, but that is only because I'm not a native speaker, sorry about that.

To sum it up, when I said knowledge, I meant true understanding of what makes this game something which cannot be described with words.
 
I'm not a native speaker, either, but that's irrelevant. Glad we straightened that out. It's just hard to imagine that you don't feel Fallout while making such a song. He probably likes that kind of music and thought it would be good for a FO-related song... which isn't true, on that we agree :D
 
Enjoyable tracks overall. I'll agree that "Fallout" doesn't totally mesh with the ambient and tribal music present in the games, but these songs weren't made to be video game music, now were they?

And keep in mind that electronic music is kind of like Rule34 - If it exists, there will be a song either based on it or that rips something from it.

(Don't say something like "and just like Rule34, it's also a perversion and bastardization of the source materials blah blah..." because that doesn't change my statement in the slightest)
