Hi all!

I'm brand new to both these forums as well as a composer for computer games. I have lots of experience in writing music across several different mediums but have always wanted to work with computer games and developers

Below is a link to my current audio reels in a couple of different genres. I'd be delighted to hear some feedback, answer any questions etc., and if you do happen to like what you hear I'll be regularly putting new releases out through my facebook feed:

Nice sounds, wanted to know what type of DAW you used for your creations ?

[ebrowne]

Thanks

I'm actually using the Ableton Live 8 suite for most of my work. I can and have used programs like ProTools, Logic, Cubase etc but I have found Ableton to be so intuitive and user friendly as of late that I tend to stick with it for the time being.

Ebrowne,

I really like the first track played in your ambient reel. The first 35 seconds are my favorite. I thought it might play more so I kept it playing and switched to a new window to listen to it while I browsed. Is there a full version of that track to listen to?

I also really liked the first and last track on your electronic reel. I'd love to hear the full version of those two tracks as well. Really great stuff!

I'm also in favor of Cool Suspense.

I have to add that I keep listening to the very first track on the Electronic Reel. The fade in and the entire short track sample is really great. The only down part is I have to keep replaying it every 40 seconds. I really want to hear the full version of that track!

Actually the first track (and the last track) of the Electronic reel are demo works in progress with not a whole lot more to them at the minute.. isn't it cool how you can trick people into thinking you have actual full tracks (But seriously, those are literally the only two that are incomplete!) The Ambient track you enjoyed is actually part of an EP that I'm releasing quite soon and is yet to be mastered properly etc. I'm really glad you like 'em, and as works in progress they'll all be finished before long. Keep an eye on my facebook page for the uploads when they happen if you like

Nice music, I really like it.

Thanks, dude! I've done stuff for film etc but really can't wait to get my first project working on a video game.

Have you looked at using good VST's. Its one thing which is super easy to improve but sounds a hell of a lot better... i recommend taking a look at this website http://www.soundsonline.com/ and I recommend getting the gold version of this one - http://www.soundsonline.com/Symphonic-Orchestra. Otherwise I quite like them all

[ebrowne]

Yeah, definitely! For these, I've actually been using the orchestral section of the Kontakt 5 sample library which isn't the worst in the world but not really authentic sounding, particularly in the articulation. I am seriously considering going for one of the EWQL orchestras at this point. Thanks for your advice/compliments
