Let me know your plans, I would be happy to collaborate (for professionnals works).
Best regards,
Phil

nice demo reel.

Thank you ;o)

Very nice demo reel indeed.
For a company, your prices are good for what you get. But I doubt that any modders will have the money to buy your music.
Either way, I think it's a good idea that you present yourself on a forum like this. I know that many composers have a hard time with jobs - especially if they are not as good as you are - so it's really important to try your luck in many different areas and with many different companies, forums and communities.

EDIT: You deserve a better website though (it's a bit annoying that the content "moves around" when you use the navigation menu
Did you pay for the website or did you create it yourself in Joomla?

My website is almost dead, i'm thinking about seriously changing it but for now i have too much work.. maybe during the summer...
Thanks for your comment ;o)

Demo reel sounds great but maybe if you slash your prices you may get alot more revenue. I say 40 - 50 euros is probley max indies would pay most are on insanly small budgets.

These are prices for a non exclusive licence i think ;o) (or for very simple music, simple sound etc...)
From my point of view my rates are very low ;o)

Thank you for your interest.

(i've shut down the "preview" girl ! i can't stand it ! )

Some News : the entire album "EPIC Music" (more than 5000 listens this month!) is freely available on Jamendo : Jamendo.com

Just finished a new set of exclusives tracks for an indie game "Cardinal" (still in developement) - See you ;o) Phil

Much to expensive - just my opinion. 1 Theme for 275€ ? o_O
But good that you dont belong to these basterd guys who do everything for free and destroy the worth of music.

1 theme + 3 ambiences ;o) (of exclusive music)

Finally + 7000 listens in 1 month, this is just crazy...

With all due respect - if you compare this rate to what other professionals usually call, this is already extremely low actually.
And Phil's work definitely is on par with any professional standards, this is what I can tell you as a collegue / competitor :-)
For sure working for indie and mod teams means adjusting your rates to a much lower budget - but there is no use in giving away your own work for almost for free:
A good composer's output is about 1 min of music per day; if you break down the given rate this is less than 150 € per day, which I would consider as being almost too low to survive as a freelancer on the long run.

You could always pay a webdesigner to rework it. I wouldn't mind doing it.
To see what I'm capable of you can click on my portfolio link in my signature.
