Xbox game needs music! 2010-07-23 07:09:44


Hi, recently I made a thread here: http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1184 013 to look for music. And it was so good, I decided to get a heap more music! This is for a little Xbox LIVE Indie Game project, not for a Flash game. It is a commercial project so I only think it's fair to offer some money, although you don't have to take it if you don't want to :) (creators retain all rights to use or do whatever with their music though, and I'll seek permission before I do anything else with it other than ingame or videos).

I'm looking for lots of music. Here's the full list:
-- 5x 30-60 second loops for each of the 5 bosses in the game. I'll offer $30 for each of these.
-- A 1:30-2 minute track for the main gameplay in the game, shooting basic enemies. $50
-- A 1-2 minute loop for the menu screen. $50

I'm not looking for custom made or new stuff, going to the effort to make a whole new track isn't worth $30-50. Just stuff you've already done that I reckon works in the game, if the track needs to be shortened or looped I'll let you know.

Here is a gameplay video for the game showing the first 2 bosses and the main, basic gameplay: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aa8WxZRey Qg (All the bosses have roughly the same pace, so music for these 2 would also suit the rest). Don't let the casual graphics fool you, it's a fairly hard game and it gets harder, that's only Normal mode in the video ;)

So post up your music! Game is pretty general, so I'm open to a wide variety of styles.

(PS: Check out the game in my signature if you want to see something I've already released!)

Eh, should of put this on the first post. Would if I could edit it. A nice pretty splash screen of the game:

I can try and do something for the menu. Any type of genre you want specifically for the menu, as well as the other sections?

Is there a specific type of music you are looking for? I have many premade loops/songs I could share as examples of my work in many different genres. So knowing what exactly you are looking for would be helpful.

Here's all of my audio I've completed and uploaded thus far. I'm working on much more extensive projects for the future as well.

Christ I've got a lot of pms.

I appreciate the offers for custom soundtracks, but that's not what I'm looking for (otherwise that's what I would of posted). I'm looking for already made tracks posted here or elsewhere that I can sift through and find what suits.

Plus, unless you have a site you want to keep more private, sending music via pm means I might lose it. If it's posted here I can just run through post by post and nothing gets lost :)

I will also mention that I'm going to let this run until at least 1st of August before picking out tracks, give people time to see this and scrounge up their tracks.

Thanks for the great response already though!

Response to Xbox game needs music! 2010-07-23 20:10:51


Oh, and I should mention that any tracks need to be able to be released on a commercial license. So remixes are generally a no no (unless it is a remix of a free licensed track, or one of your own).

Maybe this one could be used for an epic boss battle, maybe if you fight Satan at the end......

Response to Xbox game needs music! 2010-07-25 15:11:42


Here is an excellent candidate for a boss battle. I can cut and loop whatever section(s) you need.

I can get you an instrumental version of "Bodyache" and I can edit either one to your liking if you want to use them.

Sorry about that. Didn't realize I was logged in as my alt... I mean... Someone must have logged in and tried to slander my name. Yeah... That's what happened...

Response to Xbox game needs music! 2010-07-26 04:58:02


Actually this might work for a boss.
Perhapsss.

Response to Xbox game needs music! 2010-07-26 06:00:40


Thanks for all the music posted up so far guys! I've found tracks for around half of the total of what I'm looking for, although I'll try them out in the game first before I finalize.

Remember I'm looking for a whole range of styles :) Keep posting!

The sum of this topic, as in both the op and the people posting in it create a new level of sad. :/

no set genre... that just begs for the whole universe to spam all their *never rated* songs in desperation.

*shakes head.

Really? Rating is relative to this topic? I was sure he was looking for tracks that HE liked.

Really? Style is relative to this topic? I was sure he said he was looking for all styles.

So, really, really really really. Your post is a new level of sad.

oh and i hate to double post, but asymmetricalgrind goes really well together with the gameplay vid imo, at least out of the 3 i posted. I can either of the bottom two into a loop also.
