Video Game Song

Just found out that a video game company has purchased the rights to use our song " Down In The Darkness " for their next project. The song is produced and co-written by Jan Barrs. It seems they had heard the song through a documentary produced in Turkey. Just shows, one thing can lead to another. I'm not a gamer, but I think I will buy that one when it comes out. The song is on my Taxi page, if anyone is interested. Thank you Taxi for giving me the opportunity to meet great musicians like Jan and so many more :)

Thanks Jay and Steve! Yes Jay, I was aware that the song had been in the documentary. As a matter of fact, it was added to the film only about 3 weeks ago. Boy things happen fast sometimes. Wish it was like that all the time :)

Thanks Dan! I never thought when I wrote the song (as dark as it is ) that it would end up on a video game :? But who knows
where the music goes when you set it free :) Jan did a really awesome job of producing and Aika sang it hauntingly beautiful. Maybe I should dip into the dark side more often :twisted:

Come over to the dark side, Tom… come over to the dark side (LOL). I have heard your music over the years and it is far from dark and quite inspiring and uplifting! Branching out to new ideas can be a good thing though.

It is so great your music is in a video game! Most of us would love that opportunity! Keep up the great work, Tom and continued success!

Kind regards,

Dan

Thanks Dan , I appreciate your comments, and yes, it does help to branch out and try new genres etc. It is a good way to grow and it shows you another side of life, even if it is a little dark. It's always good to uses all the colors on your palate. :)

Cheers
