Examples of game music
« on: November 24, 2009, 11:31:19 AM »
I'm composing a few melodies for my new RPG and I'm in search of inspiration, so I was just wondering if the composers among us could post a few samples of their work. I think Hampster's a composer, but I've never heard any of his stuff (as far as I recall).

I'll post a few of my own stuff tonight.

Those are really good. :) Did you release any games with music?

Here's one I'm working on for my new game: http://www.mediafire.com/?zjmhmdwzzoy

I'm trying for gentler melodies than my usual stuff. More atmospheric and whatnot.

I use GarageBand, but unfortunately I lost all the Apple Loops when my HD crashed so I'm composing note by note for each instrument. GB is really easy to use though, you should give it a try Gan. :)

It was so funny, I download SW's music and I started playing and when it was in three of four seconds an advertisement turned on in the back window a safari. I was beginning to think that SW had composed a commercial. But AFTER I turned off the add I listed to it and it sounds pretty good.

Do you have any of the loop packs or something? Sound like you have the orchestra pack?

I know they're jam packs, and you don't use loops. I was guessing because I couldn't remember. Anyways I'm hoping I can get symphony orchestra some day. I only have the remix jam pack.

Sorry for the late reply.

Generally, my music would have no place in a traditional RPG... but here's something I've been working on that has a "old school game" vibe: http://www.mediafire.com/?nmwd3othj35

Sorry for the huge file. The distortion in the song may be a bit heavy for some, but I think it's cool ;)

Man this week has been busy, but I finally got around to finishing the track as well as another one I'd been working on:

I'm downlading yours now Hampster.

EDIT:

Cool stuff Hampster! :)

This is some pretty neat stuff SW. I think it would work well in a game.
