Composer/Songwriter available

I am a composer/songwriter with 20 years of experience writing music in a wide variety of genres. I am also an amateur game designer so I feel that I am in a good position to understand the musical needs of the gaming community. I play a wide variety of instruments as well as have a solid library of samples at my disposal.

I am currently looking to work with game developers to create inspired and original content for a wide variety of genres. Please have a look at my website for samples of my music and let me know if you’re interested in my services.

We're looking for talented musicians who are interested in the challenge of creating ancient sounding music with historically accurate instrument sounds (lute, lyre, harp, wooden flute, sopile, doumbek, panpipes, zills, tambourine, war drums, turkish bagpipes, etc.) that do not have an electronic modern sound. Yet the music should still be pleasing to modern ears, as it is players from this generation who will be hearing it. Nothing too repetitive that might give the player a headache, and since players may hear many repetitions of it, we're looking for more soothing sounds for zone music, and only using action music for combat instances. Are you up for this type of challenge?

The beginning of your song "Without a sound" before the singing starts is about the right style, though of course it's using guitars and other modern instruments we can't use. And "Don't go in There" has a nice alluring sound for something like a cave setting. I do realize most people don't set out to create ancient Mediterranean music as their default genre, so I'm trying to hear possible sounds in your existing music that could work if it were channeled into music with the right instruments.

Let me know what you think.

God bless you,
