Looking for Assistant Composer

[Vidian]

I have started on A very music based game called
Wrecked Fortress: Forrestall
And I decided that since this game was going to be so different,
It deserved its own sound Track.

So I decided to make an OST For the game and was wondering if anyone wanted to be Assistant composers, Which is actually just doing a few songs for the game with some having the Games main theme,
only your interpretation, Ill post the MIDI of the main themes below.
There are Two playing together on this, but for one track there is Accordian (Which is this games main Instrument) and the Piano track, which is more an Accompany.

So If your interested, then please post below, This will be the second OST I make, The other one I did for My Game "Weird wizards of Olivert"
is in the Complete resources. If you want, when we finish we can submit the OST to the Complete resource page aswell.
Anywho, Post if Interested.

(I will send screen shots, Character Breakdowns, Story, and Script to people Who want to compose Scene Music.)

the main theme isnt that good. here is some advice that may help:

1. it is too short. in my opinion, main themes should be long enough for a player to just listen to it rather than playing the game for a couple of minutes.

2. it sounds like when you play one song on a stereo at the same time as a completely different song on another stereo. you cant concentrate on the tune of either song and it becomes a jumbled mess. i would remake it so that one plays after the other, rather than at the same time. then maybe we could understand it. either way, you probably will need another layer on each, as they would be too "flat" otherwise.

from what i could make out though, the piano sounded better, hope this helps!


also, i dont make music myself. so i cant co-compose for you. however, i have the knowledge of music to know how to fix songs like your main theme

Uhm, Thanks for trying to help but this: "Main theme"
Is the main chords for the Games music theme.
It isn't a song.

And the Chords are for the Composer to Interpret.
You know how Movies and Games have one dominating
theme, Instrument, or Melody. Thats what My Game is going to have.

Anyway, to help you understand, this is a song
I made for the game, It has the piano theme in it half way.

You want an FF6 style soundtrack where Nobuo took a character theme and constantly remixed it. The problem with this is that runeforger is right, the main theme is ugly. It actually reminded me of death itself.

It almost ruined the second song (Which I thought was beautiful). If Wrecked Fortress is going to be constantly played throughout the game, it will kill mood of your game. A main theme should be inspirational, even if it were to be played on the piano. Can you name a few good movies and games with a death inspired main theme?

I can't read music yet so not me. Good luck though. You definitely know music.

Actually you are right, The Theme is Quite bad.
I'll start working on a better one and post it when Im done

[runeforger]

well, good luck with it! and good luck with the game

when your finished, I'll take a stab at it.  Its a bit easier taking a song (or chords) to make a song, than coming up with it yourself.

[Vidian]

Alright, I have come up with the new  Sample.
Here it is, and keep in mind this is for the soundtrack, this isn't a song

The Notes are a bit hard to hear from the accompany because they are all the same volume for raw editing.
The ending Trombone fanfare is A Transition I wanted to try if I were making this into a Brassy song.
Anyway, I hope someone tries this
Ciao

I tried to do something with it, I dunno how well it really turned out.  But maybe it'll have some use.  I tried to do here comes the bride at the beginning...  but... it didn't turn out as planned....  Maybe when I have more time I'll fix it. *sigh*

-Thanks!

I Can find a place for this, Ill convert it into Mp3 and
Import it.

I know the Perfect Place for it.
