Woah! One of my songs made it into the top 10 :P lol yay for me!

Open Doors

Just wanted to let everybody know what I'm listening to! These are all of the songs that I have on my "New Grounds Audio Playlist." I mostly like listening to my own work and YourMentalDisorder's songs, but there are a few other artists on there as well.

I recently purchased a flight simulator/game and I thought that I'd tell you guys a bit about it.

General Info
X-Plane 9 is an ultra-realistic flight simulator developed by Laminar Research. There are thirty flyable planes, plus you can create your own using the plane maker tool or download user made planes off of the internet. The game comes with over 60 gigabytes off global scenery, allowing you to fly anywhere in the entire world and experience it in extreme detail. You can also design your own scenery. You can fly from hundreds of airports across the world, customize weather settings, and fly in different scenarios including airdrops, fighting forest fires, and landing on aircraft carriers.

My Opinion
I *really* enjoyed this game. It was a little hard to get the hang of the controls, but it is quite amazing what the game can do after you become more experienced. It was a little cumbersome flying with the mouse, so I decided to purchase a USB joystick. That really made flying easier and more fun. The 60 GB of scenery is spread across 6 DVDs. Yes, 6. Only one of them needs to be installed for the game to work though (it includes the game and the U.S. scenery), the rest are optional. I would highly recommend this game to any flight buffs out there, X-Plane 9 is a great simulator with extreme realism and flexibility. It doesn't lag too much either (if you have a reasonable video card and don't go crazy with the graphics settings)!

ARGH! I finally figured out how to edit my old audio submissions, I feel so stupid now :/ Anyway, I'm submitting updates for all songs that need to be updated, and I'm removing all songs that have updated version posted. And I'm fixing that name problem with "Little Spirals" and "Happy Little Spirals." And I'm adding album artwork to my old songs.

I currently have 4 songs within the top 20 classical! Yay! I'm not sure how long this is gonna last, but hey, live for the moment! Another one of my songs is rated #3 in ambient. ubertuna=teh happeez!

Edit: You can't see it too well in the picture, but my songs are #6, #8, #17, and #18.

Well, I was quite surprised when I found that two of my songs, UT - A Sadness. (final) and A Sadness (w/ flute+strings), were ranked within the top hundred on the site (82 and 72, respectively). :D

Just wanted to give everybody a heads up that I am working with one of my favorite newgrounds artists, YourMentalDisorder, on a new song. The working title is Lament of the Broken Piano, and I just submitted the piano piece for it. The final/updated version will be posted after YMD and I finish mucking around with the song, which should be in a week or so. I hope you guys like what I have so far!

UT

I just finished the final version of "A Sadness." The main thing that I changed was the pan, helping to separate the instruments. I decided not to add drums, sometimes less is more. I also fixed a few harmonic clashes near the beginning, but I didn't mess with the song too much. The final version of the song can be found at the link below. Enjoy!

A Sadness.

Today I am giving you guys the first taste of a slightly large project that I've been working on, called "A Sadness." The version on NG can be found here and the updated version is on zshare (I don't want to use my second upload slot for today until I add the drum and the bell) updated. I hope you guys like it! Feel free to leave feedback.

I made a little mistake involving the audio submission above, it's supposed to be called "Open Doors." I got a little confused when submitting two of my songs, sorry for the trouble.
