Need Music For Your RPG Project?

Malson · December 28, 2006, 11:24:40 PM

In need of a song? I'm your guy!

I made this thread in Resources but no one replied, so I figured I'd make it here where people may or may not be recruiting composers. Now, let's get a few things straight before we begin:

I will not become part of your team. I am already tied to Anesis Gaming, and will only freelance for you guys.
Request fulfillment is not guaranteed. Chances are I will write something for you, but don't get pissed at me because I'm taking too long or am not doing anything.
I will only write MIDI. While it is possible for me to record my songs in MP3, I will not invest any time in doing so.

We have an understanding of the circumstances, then? Excellent. Now let's get to the rules:

You may only request ONE song at a time. I will have a continually updated queue in this post to keep requests organized. After your request has been fulfilled, you may request another.
Make your post clear and concise. Poor grammar and spelling leads me to believe that you don't care about your project, and I will subsequently not write music for it.
Provide a link to your project, if at all possible. I'd like to know what kind of project I'm writing for before I write anything for it.
Finally, be as specific and descriptive about the song as possible. Remember, the more precise you are, the better I'll fulfill your request.

Now, get requesting!

A song? So you mean like, make a custom one, I wanna know how to do that:o

Can you make, Come Sail Away by the Styks?

Malson · December 29, 2006, 07:13:45 PM

You mean, just a MIDI version?

Meh, I suppose I'll give it a shot.

Cool! Thank you!

Well, if you ever get some spare time I could use a theme for the capital city in my Dark Empire Project:
http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,7815.0.html

I was imagining something strong and dramatic, maybe with a bit of a "holy song" feel to it. A large portion of the game takes place in the capital, so it will most likely be one of the main themes in my game.

If you need any more details, please ask.

Here, K_B. I didn't want to reinvent the wheel (too much unnecessary work), so I took it upon myself to find you a Come Sail Away MIDI.

keyblade_bearer · January 05, 2007, 12:19:41 AM

Thanks

But really I'm not gunna be stupid this time.

You know the default Defeat02? Can you make that into an elongated version? I like the way it sounds, and this time, I WILL use it in one of my projects I'm working on.

Do you need a link for Defeat02, or are you ok? Also, how do you make those musicc files, like some program?

Malson · January 05, 2007, 01:15:14 AM

I'm going to need the MIDI, definitely.

And I use a program called TabIt, check it out at http://www.tabit.net/

The best 20 bucks you'll ever spend, promise.

I would like a title screen song for my game "The Dark Seraph" http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,10723.0.html

I want something slow and dark sounding. Anything will do as long as it's slow and dark.

EDIT: Are you going to make me one? I need to know.

Call me crazy. But I read this, and I delved into my own stash of WAVS that I created for my old game (that I'm not making anymore) and found something that you might like for your title BGM. I'd say it's my best 'darkish' song, despite that I created it a while ago. Sorry, Zypher, if this seems like I'm intruding...just thought maybe this would help.

Irockman1, please credit me for this song. It took a better part of a week to create in full, including humanizing it. Thanks. And I hope it works for you.

(This is my own work. I've had people insult me before by accusing me of 'not being good enough' to write songs at this level. Sorry if I sound indignant, but it rather irks me that people doubt my experience just because I'm not very active. The song title is 'March of Death' by the way. It's a little Gregorian...)

Anyway. Enjoy!

Wow, thanks so much. I'll credit you for sure.

Why?
Why?
Why? a WAV file? That's such a waste of space.

Anyway, your song is decent.

Ummm...thanks. It's a WAV file because my TEC Sound Recorder program is busted and I couldn't translate it into an MP3 version. If he wants to, he can find a way to make an MP3 out of it, but I lack the software.

Get CDex. It's small and fast. It can convert your wavs to mp3s.

You're welcome.

hmm I've been gone for a while so I was just curious if this was dropped or your still kinda working on them?

AlwaysIdeas · February 22, 2007, 06:48:18 AM

If you are still doing this, would you mind making an end of game boss battle song? It's for my Lufia - The Final War game:

http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,12447.0.html

The song needs to be really daunting and terrifying to the player, and makes them feel as if there is an unbeatable battle ahead.
The boss is Arek, who is by far, the most powerful person in the universe in the game, his powers are beyond imagination. The song should have a holy feel with bells at the start and gets evil. It needs to be loud. Use these to try and create the song if you can.
Thanks in advance.
