Well it was supposed to be a battle theme, but I was trying to go with something a bit darker then the normal sounds for battles - though I think I kinda failed on that too. Well if you notice in the newer games like D/P some of the rival music is starting to sound more electro-ish. But really I think I pretty much failed on this theme, has very little bass and it's not really all that menacing. It's evil. But, it's missing something. Just add the usual Pokemon-style bass line and add the generic intro using chromaticism (You know, with the descending notes.) and it'll sound like a awesome battle theme.

It needs to have more energy in it during the middle. I like how it begins, except I would prefer it to use strings when it's actually in the game.
As for how you should think about this theme...I guess I'll have to spoil this too. This game has 8 Gyms, but only 7 Gym Leaders--one person serves as the Leader for two Gyms. And these Gym Leaders are? The members + Leader of Thrasher. So, these themes should be about as epic and energetic as Gym Leader themes generally are.

Yeah I'm still working on that theme, I changed it around a little and added a bass part. I think I'm just going to cut out that second have and add in something with more energy, or at least not make it drag on as long. www.box.net/shared/9mssy5epdz

I've been working on a town theme, and larx and I are going to collab on another town, so hopefully we'll/I'll finish. :x

The percussion. It's not really Pokemon-ish.

It sounds too much like a "you're in danger" type thing, as opposed to a battle.

@stein
Well being that you're battling a member of a highly dangerous organization that's infiltrated the gym leader organization I'd imagine you are in some danger. Idk, I may alter it more - I know one thing that needs changing is that second part.

I'd like to do at least one theme for this. I can make anything, but atm I feel like making a Route/Town/Cave theme. Is it okay? You've said the songs are going to use different instruments in the game so I'd make MIDIs, right?

Just my opinion, anyways. :x

It would be a fantastic encounter theme if you reworked it to be a shorter loop.

Here's a preview of something I've been working on. Town Theme?I'm having trouble making background stuff and percussion, but here's what the *main* melody/bass sounds like.
