FamiTracker
I played around with OrgMaker [the program used to make Cave Story's music] a lot last year and got a taste for composing/covering songs. I love megaman and metroid, and ended up doing a lot of covers that I was proud of [though I cringe listening to them now]. This summer I started with famitracker, and have been honing my 'skills' ever since. There have been many times that I've wanted to upload something here, but at the last second noticed some imperfection and decided not to. This is the first original song that I can confidently say is [i]exactly[/i] as I envisioned it [the song I'm uploading is like, the fifth iteration of the same song with slightly more effects/technical stuff.]
I'm currently in the process of learning C++ and SDL, and plan to make indie games [I have a shitload of free time...] so a lot of 'original' songs I upload here will likely make it into one of my games. If I ever do covers [which I have, and probably will] they'll likely be of the Megaman Zero/ZX series which is criminally under-appreciated.
Anyway, I look forward to posting original songs and covers here!
Not bad for a first track, especially since it's an original composition. Keep learning, try and look at other's ftms and try and incorporate as many styles into your tracks as possible.
Good luck and have fun!

Hey, I started on Orgmaker too! Great to see it gets lots of people started on tracking.
Basically what he^ said: do plenty of listening and learn what sounds good to you. This is a great start. VRC6 pulse 1 seems a little loud, though.
