Laugh At Life- unfinished loop

Okay, so this is something I started and eventually gave up on about a week ago... it was an attempt to do a remix of the song Laugh At Life by Renard Queenston, or one of his pseudonyms, Jackal Queenston or Mayhem or -both-, honestly I'm not 100% sure how it is... the original song I used as a base can be found at the link below and it sounds like a jillion times better than what I tried pulling off. just take the space out wherever the system puts one in...

Anyway, yeah, I fucking love this song, so before I came up with a tune for Souls Have No Ginger, I tried to do a remix of this in 8 bit-- I still think that if I could've done it, it would've sounded awesome. I kind of hit a wall when I got to the part at around... 0:40 in the video, with that friggin' synth solo thing, because I had no idea how to emulate that in 8 bit and it was way too hard to try and go through the song second by second and try and imitate that flurrying clusterfuck of notes. So I gave up for now-- maybe I'll pick it up again when I feel confident enough to give that thing a shot again. But for now, here's what I actually managed doing. it doesn't sound the exact same because I didn't do the minute tweaks to make it so, and I was sick of putting in all the effort, but it still sounds pretty good imo.

I don't really care if anyone rates or comments on this thing too much; Busy Not Caring and Souls Have No Ginger are a better show of what I can do in FamiTracker presently. So if you like 8 bit but were like BLUH THIS WAS A SONG ORIGINALLY BY A FURRY BURN IT (which by the way is a stupid reason to hate music) or BLUH THIS IS SHORT AND BORING, just look at my other crap. I know that's kind of shameless self-plugging but this isn't the best example of my work and I'd rather not be judged by it.

So bluh bluh I'll shut up now.

haha! I'm diggin' this.

I love the sounds! You gotta finish this!

Namahsaron responds:

Ah man, I love how this sounds too, but I just don't think I'm at the ear-reading(?) level to attempt to imitate that stupid solo synth without killing my confidence outright... I'll try and come back to it eventually, though.
