Okay, so I've been fiddling around with FL Studio a lot, and I'm confident that I can structurally create music that can sound good, but now I'm stuck at the most important part of actually choosing the precise sounds and related characteristics to turn my notes into actual music.
As of now I've just been using presets and some soundfonts, completely unaltered in any way, as placeholders until I learn how to find/make something better, and my stuff sounds okay enough that I can see the potential in it. I just don't know how to start the process choosing good combinations of sounds if you know what I mean. I know all the instruments I want to use (I'm shying away from wacky synths for the time being), but all the sound samples and soundfonts that I have tried obviously don't automatically sound perfect together. I guess I have to just experiment with effects repeatedly until something just sounds right, but in the meantime is there anything you can tell me that might be of help? Very open ended question I know, I just need some form of feedback. :p
Here is the most complete piece of music I have so far, but even this is still embarrassingly primitive at this point. Nonetheless it gets the gist of what I'm trying to create (because I just don't know how to describe it other than "Tetris Theme meets unce-unce-unce meets shitty default drumkits").

Also I'm really bad at describing music, so pardon my awkward, vague wordings. XD I guess this is also something I'll learn over time.
