If it depends on me you are in.

You have some bad parts some good. But it is so nicely done I cannot resist listening to it over and over again. I posted it on our forums for preview.

I have a few questions do you own this game? We have ArmA 2 and ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead. You of course don';t need to implement the music. You would ony have to bother making it. So to make it short you are still awaiting approval :)

I think they will accept you :). We will have our first meeting on the realism mod this Saturday. If you want join our forums and ask for teamspeak password so you can attend the meeting. :)

Well euhm add me on xfire: djjonastybe

I also have a girl friend and it's very time consuming. Stuff like that comes always first. Are you willing to tell me how you made the songs in private? I am a music composer as well, but I usually stick with dance or electro. I have been interested in making this kind of music sinec a long time. So if you are willing to tell me which VST's etc.

I own Cubase 5, z3ta +, Nexus2 and many expansions. If you are willing to show me the scores that's even better. Usually I have enough with that so I can study it.

I need to make the intro music for a party and I have totally no inspirations. So I though maybe giving your music s shot as well.

I need 2 minutes maximum I need to start slowly and then finally the climax with the explosion. And eventually maybe a countdown. Thats what I need.

And yes thats my favorite part :D

I have notebook Lenovo with 2Gb ram, intel core duo processor and its all for hardware form software i'm using FL Studio 8 and many VST plugins like EWQLSO Gold version, Nexus, FM8, Toxic Biohazard etc. :D Im not very good but You know if you have inspiration... sometimes you don't need any best sound cards, speakers and any other stuff just only skill is the way your music will be like. And about creating Symphony /Eletronic music witch is my favourite, You have to study and hard work with creating this type of music it isn't simple to create :) just practice with any tutorial and read about this type of music.

Well I have heard better stuff than nexus. I only use it for kicks. z3ta does a very good job in customizability.

The best composer in this genre is Jim Dooley. You must atleast hear is work for SOCOM. Which is outstanding for the ears. You actually do a pretty good job getting near it.

Well I have profesionnal equipment overall. I only need a well calibrated studio. I cant find the right words for it :/ It's something like walls absorbing too much now.

Yes i heard about Him :) for example InFamous OST is fuckin good :D but i love Hans Zimmer music He is the best Symphony composer i have ever heard :) his Infinity Ward video game "Modern Warfare 2" Score is the best of, and my favorite :)so about Nexus... hmmm i'm using this VST only for pianos and pads or similar stuff like that :) also Sytrus is old bu so good xD and z3ta so i never used it before so its time to try it :D

in connection with your song to sound at a party what exactly? because if there is a possibility it'll help:)

In total, therefore, that I get bored slightly improved version of the song:)

So in fact I forgot to ask You very important question...what type of music i have to score ? main themes, some additional music or any else ?

You sent me the file cry.ogx or cry.ogg

The part from 3.00 is very good. If you can make a good climax for that and then suddenly end it with a explosion for example. It needs a sudden halt.
After that sudden halt I will start the countdown voice or something.

- Maximum length should be 2 minutes
- The song should be slowly building up with the peak of a climax
- Should have a count down (at the very end)
- I was ordered to add jet flyby sounds or helicopters. Something cool. But I can do that myself.

I would be giving credit and would reffer to you by your real name. So if they like it they would be coming back to you as well. It is just that I do not have inspiration at the moment and I am about to start flipping :D.

Most people played SOCOM for the music. They liked the music so much, that most of the time the first thing they critize is the music instead of the gameplay.

So on your last question, you mean music for the mod or the party? The application for the mod is still pending. They are still discussing it. But main themes are still not possible since I have to figure out how to set a main theme in arma 2. I know the engine pretty well but I have to figure that one out.

But I recommend you to make a website and start selling yourself. You have got talent. On your website put the samples like jim dooley did. I am sure that even if you do not use the music. You can even sell the scores pretty easy if someone is interested. But you would need to patent it first so nobody can steal it.

I have my own website but still in progress... in fact :D because i don't have time to complete it :D

As for the music you want to use at an event you want me to developed the theme of "Preparation"? :> I do not understand the totality what you mean so confused xD

Well what do you use html or php? I suggest html for it being the easiest. :D

And yes I would like to use preparation :P i thought that was very clear :P

I have completed the website but i still looking for flash player :) and i starting to recompose this track stay tuned to reply :)

Aijaij captain :) I damn love this song already. I am sure it is worth it :) I listen to it practically every morning.

Making a website in flash isn't easy. I once decompiled a website from a music artist. It looked very hard. at least everything is better than HTML. :)
