Music for productive Game Developers! Options

[ChristianAnderss...]

Hello guys!

I hope your game development creativity is on fire, and that you are ready to accomplish some new miracles during the coming Christmas vacation, but don't forget to share some time with your family. :-)

If you are willing, feel free to share a link to your own game projects with me! I'm always curious on what's happening in the indie game developer business. It often gives me inspiration to new songs to see your game creations!

Right now, I am myself working on two new epic music pieces, suitable for video game titles, and I hope to finish at least one of them before Christmas Day.

I've written some new songs that might be suitable for video games, so I'll share them for those who are interested.
I'm into a dark and gloomy period right now, so if you have some games with ghosts and dark cathedrals, I think some of these songs would be suitable, but I also have some other stuff. Here are the latest song names:

- Tombs of the Fallen Ones, dark and gloomy
- Sad Little Girl, also dark
- Chapel of Light, a bright song with choirs
- Bard's Tale, a bright little song

You will find the new songs here

I also wrote a futuristic sci-fi sound track for a cool online game for iDevice. You will find my electronica songs here:

But of course, if you're not into the licensing mood or not working with a new game at the moment, you are always welcome anyway to listen to some music and share your thoughts of my work. Maybe it can inspire you to some new games in the same way that your games inspire me to write new songs. :-)

Take care & Best of luck with your projects!

As a musician myself, I must say that these pieces are absolutely gorgeous. Especially the Tomb of the Fallen Ones. It's very creepy, but the title fits the tone of the theme very good. Sounds almost like something Tim Burton would use lol. Me and my team are in the works of creating a game. In my sig, you can see Rise of Tongzhi. Right underneath that is the link to the official website. You can check out two themes I created in the soundtrack section of the site. I need another composure to help complete the soundtrack. The themes themselves are chinese/british oriented, so it may be a nice challenge. Only chinese instruments I could download was the Mini Dizi and Mini Ehru lol.

Thanks a lot, Spirit Master. I'm really happy to hear your kind words! :-)

I'll take a look at your game. Two weeks ago, I ordered a completely new sound collection with oriental instruments. I haven't got it yet since the company selling ran out of stock, so it will be delayed. But I look forward to start working with those Chinese and Asian cultural instruments when I get the package.

Meanwhile, I'll check your site and game dev project and listen to the music and will be back on this forum with some comments on it!

*cheers*

Wow, thanks for sharing this on R3. Iv'e listened to all these tracks and they are simply brilliant.
Infact some of this music has inspired me to push forward with one of my projects .
I particularly love the haunting choir arrangements in some of these. If you have anything with a
Celtic or japanese theme....(battle music) thats what I'm needing.

Must mention, advertising isn't allowed in the forums, so the shop links will need to go. Thanks.

Hi there, DarkHalo!

Thanks for the kind words, and sorry about the shop links. Will remove them immediately!

I'm glad that I could inspire you in your project as well!
That's the great thing with this kind of forums. We can inspire each other.

Right now, I don't have anything the the Celtic/Japanese genres, but I probably will, in the future, as soon as I get my new cool sound package!

Best Regards
/Christian
