Mori

Thanks. Also, as a general response to all the peoples who've pm'd me, I'm working, don't worry, I just tend not to respond too much until I have some material to give you.

@Zyvo: > Ever think of going pro? @Zyvo: > I cant pay is my only issue Precisely why I really wouldn't be able to do this professionally: Everyone loves music, and no one is ever willing to pay to hear or use it. There are plenty of incredibly innovative artists and musicians (that are much, much more talented than I) that are financially screwed simply because it's just too difficult to make any serious money. There's a reason that I'm majoring in Digital Media and not Music. Feel free to use these songs that I posted though, like I said, the last two are on Last FM anyways. As long as you point out somewhere that I made it, as it's pretty much the only advertising that I get.

Alright, I'm uploading Ages and White Void. Ages is, in short, one of my best songs ever. I'm not saying it in a bragging way, I'm merely saying that I've unfortunately never topped it. I have a similar situation in a lot of things. I made a map in Halo 3 before any of the advanced forging techniques like interlocking or geomerging and ghostmerging were ever discovered. To date, I have never made a better balanced competitive slayer map than that one. Not sure why that happens so much. White Void is one of my friend's favorite songs. I'm currently working with him on an animation called The Drifter, and he's honestly much more talented than I am when it comes to animation. Anyone who has BlazBlue will understand what the song is referencing. The songs should be attached to the main post by the time you've finished reading this.

Well, since you asked, Ages will be up within the hour most likely. It's an old progressive metal song I made a while ago, and it's actually on Last FM if you look hard enough, which is kind of cool. I'll probably upload a redone version of one of my older songs too, just need to clean it up a bit.

Sounds good. I'll keep making screenshots then, prolly Tir Na Nog next. Zombies are just fun to fight with a small group of people. Oh right and I'm almost always on Cephaus now, not Selkies.

"Albey - The music and theme is amazing. Plus, you can only go to it on Sundays, so it's a rare opportunity to do an albey run." Thinking over all the dungeons you mentioned, completely agreed. Possibly some of the best music in the game there. Tir Na Nog is just cool in general.

One of my friends setting up camp before fighting a desert dragon:   Same guy killing a desert dragon with his entire guild:    Also, me playing music with the same guy (I'm on the right): 

Thanks. Like I said, I'm probably going to post some of my older metal stuff, and maybe Black Rain in August, which was an old orchestral piece I made. I have a haircut appointment at 3 though, and it takes like half an hour to get there, so it might be a while before I get a chance to post them today.

Well, usually I use a bunch of midi programs to get ideas (Anvil and such), I have a fantastic keyboard which was given to me by a good friend which I use to actually make a lot of the music. I also have two violins, a normal one and an electric one, and a fairly large collection of guitars, and most of these things are usually used in the process. From there, it's usually on to Cakewalk or Audition, both fantastic but costly programs.

This would be the third then. These are all admittedly a little boring, expect the next ones to either be remakes of my old metal work, or orchestral stuff. idk.

Here we go with installment two.

Memento Mori P3 Up for Halo, BlazBlue, Flashpoint, whatever. Got most old and new games.

I'm pretty much gonna follow Godlord's set up here to the letter. # What you are experienced in and what you actually want to do. The main skillset I'm bringing to the table here is music. I am both a musician and composer, and for a small fee I will compose individual songs or soundtracks. I mostly stick to instrumental work, but I have worked with vocals before. # Some portfolio or samples of your work. I'm just going to upload White Hat and a few other recent songs, check the attachments. Maybe some of my older material, not sure. For the most part, expect instrumental work, orchestral, jazz, whatever. I'm flexible. Updated: Ages and White Void have been uploaded. Interlude will most likely follow. I'll try to keep this section updated regularly with new material. EDIT: Throwing a lot of the other stuff into a spoiler. Long post is long. In short, keep in mind that I really, really tend to not get around to free stuff for a while. So feel free to use stuff I post here, but in all honesty, if I'm not being paid, that particular job might take a month for me to get around to it. I'm lazy, sue me. >! # On what you've worked on in the past like games, projects, etc. >! I've worked on several independent games, animations, and advertisements before, but nothing especially notable. My current work includes writing the soundtrack to an independent animation called The Drifter. >! # How many years you've spent already on the several things you're experienced in. >! I've been playing violin for about 17 years now, and have been composing music for around 10 years. I also play piano and guitar. >! # Some scheme representing when you can actually work each week. >! I'm honestly available almost whenever. I currently do not hold what most would consider a traditional job, so I end up having a lot of free time for music. >! # If you want to do it part-time or not. >! As said before, I'm flexible. I'm used to working with people in different time zones than me. >! # Some introduction of yourself: who you're, where you live, how old you're, etc. >! I'm currently 20 years old, and reside in the United States. >! Well that's boring. How about I describe my musical inspirations? They include Between the Buried and Me, The Mars Volta, Pure Reason Revolution, Poets of the Fall, Queen, and in terms of older music, Mendelssohn, Sibelius, Holst, and Dvorak. >! # Perhaps some prices. (Makes it harder to get a job) >! Here's where things get a little bit tricky. Obviously, I want money, and obviously you don't want to pay a cent. So here's how it works for me. If a game is going to be completely free, with no subscription fees or anything like that, then I'm usually okay with doing one free song or so. Honestly, I might even write a whole soundtrack if I'm in the right mood. >! HOWEVER. If your game is a commercial endeavor, and you do indeed plan on making money off of it, then talk to me individually. If you do use my music in this particular case without my consent, it is unfortunately illegal. Use your best judgment please. >! In general, a name in the credits is always nice. >! # What you expect of the game you're working for. >! I like originality. That might score you another free song. But more than that, I like drive. I love to see a team work together to make something incredible. All too often projects are abandoned and left incomplete. If I see a game with true potential with a dedicated team, and I mean dedicated, I respect that greatly. I wouldn't mind at all doing an entire soundtrack for you if you fit that particular bill. # Some contact information like your e-mail address (Don't post the topic and just leave, be active). The easiest way to get in contact with me is to simply pm me. I'm usually online here. Failing that, my most empty e-mail account, and therefore the one I will be most likely to answer promptly, is: [email protected] I also use: [email protected] But that account is used mostly for my AIM. Other ways to contact me would be Skype, with the username: Kwang-11 If necessary, I will give out my phone number on an individual basis.

I am receiving repeated errors concerning posting on the "Need a Job" section. Apparently my session times out…every single time. How unfortunate. I'm only double posting to see if this problem is endemic to that particular section or not. Edit: It seems to have fixed itself. Apparently I couldn't use attachments until I posted, then I could post them via edits. Strange.

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the comments and critiques. I might post on the "Need a Job" section, I wouldn't mind a little extra work.
