Cowabunga! Music from the 80's...Psych! I Just Wrote It.

here's another song i just finished for work. it's not actually going to be used in a video game. it went into one of our promo videos that is 8-bit/Game Boy themed. i also created the graphics for the video (screen shot below).

Songs for the Beach, a Silent Film, Some Conquest and the Prize Behind Door Number One

i just finished a group of songs for some video games my company is working on. i thought i'd share.

Another Double Detention Song

the team making our double detention game wanted a second song to use during gameplay. i wrote another track to fit with the previous ones.

Double Detention: In Game 2

Cement Tower Music

i gave my three previous tracks to the team building the cement tower game and they asked me to try a different style. they wanted something relaxed but more "puzzle-y" like the player is thinking about something. i made them five more tracks and they're happy with them.

Puzzle Game Music

i wrote some more music for work this week. my company's making a puzzle game called cement tower so i had to make some relaxed background tracks. there are going to be five levels total which means five songs. here are the three i have finished.

Double Detention and Rockeboy Music

my video game studio is working on two new games right now and i just finished the music for them. one is called Double Detention and you wander around a school fighting off bullies, cheerleaders and hall monitors. the other is called Rocketboy Corps. and it's a space shooter. check out my tracks below.

this one is only the teaser for our game trailer. i'll be writing more rocketboy tracks soon.

Video Game Music

since my company is small, i get to be designer, illustrator, (sometimes even programmer), 3-D artist and COMPOSER! i'm quite lucky to have found a place that actually pays me to make art aaaand music. or maybe my company is lucky to have found an artist that studied music. either way, a normal sized studio would outsource sound design so this is uncommon.

i just finished a couple of tracks for the latest game on which we're working. the game features a robot on a farm. a little odd, i know. so i made the music a little odd. its kind of a hoedown with mechanical percussion. you can listen to it below. the game also opens with a dream sequence so i took the same hoedown melody and arranged it in a slumber-like style.

i haven't posted any of the video game music i've done in the past so i figured i'd use this post to catch up. the first one below is for a puzzle game where you knock blocks over to score points. it starts out with an intro where you're flying through the sky gathering points by hitting stars and rings. it then segues to the more low key music that loops as you play. the second one below is for a space shooter game.
