Hey all,

p.s visit my blog (link on the site)

Awesome music! Once my project comes along further some of your work would probably fit in perfectly How much do you charge?

Hey!

Sounds good!

I seem to remember you posting on my thread, so I only think its fair!

As I said on MSN, once Hassassin has enough done in it, I'm coming to you for that adrenaline-pumping assassin music


Great stuff mate.

Can you do metal?

Metal to what degree? ...I can do what ever is needed.

DaZ

Not to sound pushy but....*how much do you charge* Your music is great and I could definetly use it for my game once it has gone further.

Metal to what degree?

As heavy as you can get it while maintaining overall melody. Sort of Amon Amarth -ish. Any length of sample would do... And remember it's not good enough until you feel the unwavering urge to accidentally sever your upper spinal column.

And yes we are lacking vital information, that being price. The fate of the world may hang in the balance.

Haha well like I say it depends on the track At Pro level i charge £20 per 3 minute custom track but I have done some project for MUCH MUCH less. Heh its one of those things you cant have a base price for.

I understand 99% of the people on this site are indie thats why my fee depends on project so that I can organize my time and finances (heh im like a walking business )

I will soon be releasing a horror music pack which will include some dark loops. That WILL have a base price something reasonable like £20 for 20 tracks or something (all royalty free)

As for the metal....yes I could create some spine shattering stuff..Im also in a punk band so I get to mix with some really hard metal/thrash/grind types who can assist me should the occasion arise

DaZ

Sounds good, I'll keep you in mind for my project.

EDIT: In case your interested in what 'my project' actually is, it is a sort of Special Forces kind of game like Delta Force Black Hawk Down (or more Delta Force Xtreme anyways)

Oh BTW there is now a track from the 'Horror Pack' up on my portfolio. Its Called 'HORROR - The Churchyard'

Id love to hear some comments.


DaZ

Just awesome!
Though, a bit expensive for me :<

You should make music for commercial games/movies. You got lot's of talent!

I'm listening to your music all day at my internship

BTW what software do you use?

I LOVE the horror track! Very subtle, but just at that point to keep the player in suspense. I'd be shooting myself in the head not to order some of your work

I make my music in Ableton Live 6.07 on a macbook pro (www.ableton.com) I tell you tho I would be lost without my piano, I start 99% of my tracks there!

DaZ

Dude, those are some great tracks. I could use pretty much any of them as back ground music for the project I'm working (in fact their exactly the sound I'm looking). But since the project has no bugdet, free is all I can use.

Cheers any way, you've got a lot of talent.

Well mabey you can pick up a copy of my horror pack when its released... it gunna have about 20ish loops (Im trying to get them under a minute so they load quick) and im going to sell it for about £15 which is about $28 (i think lol my maths isn't to good but its not much more than that) and all tracks are royalty free and you can use them for commercial projects with credit.

Ill make it worth the money!

DaZ

Speaking of my horror pack, It is getting ever so closer to being completed, what I wanted to know would anybody be interested in entering a competition to win a copy?

Im thinking of running a game making competition....the theme...Horror.

What do you think? Mabey we could get TGC to open a forum for it.

DaZ

Do I have to have good models?
