Video Game Theme Music

Post by shwnklly » Thu May 29, 2008 6:27 pm

Hi Everyone,It's been a while since I've posted anything so I thought I'd give the video game listing a try. This song I wrote with an adventure game in mind. I want to focus on a specific action scene the player might be experiencing next but this piece is a start. Let me know what you think. Thanks!http://www.taximusic.com/song.php?song_ ... am=1-Shawn

oops. Sorry about that. Here's the listing below:NEW LISTING -- INSTRUMENTAL/ORCHESTRAL COMPOSERS are needed by a Leading Video Game Developer of DS and Wii game titles. They need someone who can write a wide variety of Instrumentals as background music for future video games projects for the Wii game console. Musically, they'd like to hear a scope in style but are very interested in a dramatic, "big" orchestral feel. Many dynamic shifts and tone variation would be advisable, to show your full capabilities. They are looking for professional composers who have experience arranging and are responsible with meeting deadlines. It's also a plus to know the tech side of programming music with video game operations. Not only are they looking for freelance composers, but they are open to hiring you as a full time staff composer if they feel you are right for a particular game project. You must also be a "team player." Broadcast quality needed [excellent home recordings are OK]. Please submit two to three INSTRUMENTAL pieces online or per CD, include your bio. All submissions will be screened on a YES/NO BASIS -- NO CRITIQUES FROM TAXI -- and must be received no later than June 13, 2008.TAXI # Y080613VG

Thanks for the kind words Jude. I enjoyed listening to both video game scores Dan and Mazz. Best of luck! Maybe we could all collaberate sometime. Take care all.-Shawn
