Experienced Composer looking for a project. Thread

Hello, my name is Krafty & I am a 32 year old audio architect.

I have been creating music for almost 17 years now and have dabbled in the dark art of sound design, I have been involved directly or indirectly with mod projects like, Shattered Faith, Iron Grip, Desert Conflict, The Hidden, First Strike to name but a few and use to be lead composer at Sonic Valley.

I'm looking for a new Mod to get stuck in to... something interesting, fun, inspiring & innervative.

I am willing to create music of any genre apart from country and western

I can also fabricate sound effects and mix/master audio from voice overs to explosions.

I've rambled enough Do not hesitate to check out my SoundCloud which includes new and very old examples. If you feel you need more examples from me that may be more suited to your projects needs, let me know.

Look forward to hearing from you,

NoiseKraft

Hello
I like your work. A lot of good orchestral songs there, and your skill really shines through.
I'm wondering how comfortable you are creating electronic music though? say Downtempo, Ambient and other so-called "chill out" genres?

Right now me and 3 others are working on the prototype for a single player FPPP (First-person Puzzle Platformer) with a unique gameplay that currently does not exist in any 3D game as far as we know. The environment will have a clean minimalistic sci-fi art style and there will be plenty of different puzzle elements gradually being introduced to the player. I'm not exactly sure how many different songs we will need but we are probably talking about five 10-20 min long songs (long songs are typical for the ambient genre after all) and one much shorter song for the menu music. We wont have any dynamic music or anything like that. We are still in post-production though, working on a prototype as we speak.

We are planning to do a larger recruitment later in about 2 weeks when the prototype is finished. So if you join now, there is a chance that it will take a bit of time before your music will be available in the game. But nevertheless: contributors will get credited fully.

Our long-term plan is to release the mod on Desura.

If you think this sounds like an interesting game, we can give you access to our restricted dev forum where you can find out more about the game mechanics and design.
