GarageBand the Music of Vendetta

I know I'm not the only one out there noodling around in GarageBand. Everyone with iLife '04 and fast enough Mac get playing, assembling, looping or blatantly ripping off what you think Vendetta's music should sound like. It doesn't have to be "good" because "good" is in the eye of the beholder. It doesn't even have to be your own music so long as it's properly cited and the source is royalty-free (which all of the Apple included loops are). Slap something together, swallow your pride, and post the MP3. See? I'll even go first:

Apple's included loops with a bit of MIDI instrument-set-shifting.
*gulp*

Cool song. I've been messing around in GarageBand, just with my bass for now, though. Once I kick down the corn for the cheap keyboard, I'll be set. =D

Sweet.... I thought iLife was a joke, but apparently not.. I'll have to grab Garageband and get to work.

I like it, though I would suggest that either the beginning fades in quietly or the end makes a more natural loop with the beginning.

Definitely. I can make it loop. :D

Not bad. Although I'm not too crazy about the '80s style of it. I can say the same for the music that's in Vendetta now. It's okay but it comes nowhere near the level of Parsec's awesome soundtrack. I'm normally not a big fan of techno or trance but for some reason the music of Stefan Poiss hits the spot for me.

Hmmm... I wonder what would happen if I e-mailed Stefan and told him about Vendetta. See if he could come up with some tracks for it. That should get Incarnate jealous enough to pump out more music. Gotta get some competition going! Hehehe.

Or ask him if the music is open sourced along with the code :D

Read the site. It isn't.

I came up with a loop that's almost un-boring, but I lack hosting. Any takers?
