Hi all,

Well as the ModDB Mod of the Year 2008 Awards have started it would be sinful not to do some plugging for the mod I am currently working on.

Black Sierra has been going strong now for a year and we are getting closer and closer to a releasable demo and it needs your support in voting for it in the Unreleased mod of year.  If you are not still not sure about voting then check out this:

If you liked the look of it then head on over to the Black Sierra ModDB Page and VOTE!

On a side note just to let you know that the Killing Floor Music Pack has been getting some great ratings and is still available to download from here amd MadMaxMusic.co.uk

See you soon!!!

For you viewing pleasure, I was working on the M4 reload sounds for Black Sierra and I got a little bored and created this:

Also I have just checked the downloads section and it's just about to hit the 1000 mark so thanks for all you people checking out my music.  I will be adding much more in the near future!

Hi all!

Whilst this has nothing to do with me or what I am up to at the moment, I had to write something about this amazing instrument - Reactable.

I came across Reactable at Bjork gig and was totally blown away by it. Reactable is a 'collaborative electronic music instrument with a tabletop tangible multi-touch interface' the main premise is that you have different blocks that you can add to a the screen and dependent on how you manipulate these sounds you can create different sounds and samples. Currently the software is open source but you do have to build the table yourself.

Check out more at the Reactable website

As for me I am busy beavering away at new tunes for Black Sierra, Aracdium and I have recently teamed up with the Zombie Apocalypse: Psychosis Rising team to create a theme tune for their mod.

I have recently teamed up with the guys at Zombie Boss Interactive to work on some new music for their upcoming mod for Half-Life: ARCADIUM.

Currently a 2nd beta has been released which can be downloaded from here. Also a copy of the intro music can be accessed in my downloads section.

Enjoy!

Good day to all!

Currently my main project I am working on is a new Mod for Unreal Tournament called Black Sierra as Sound Engineer and Composer. Below is a little blurb on the mod:

'Black Sierra is a cooperative horror survival game. A singleplayer experience designed specifically for 2-5 players. With an action packed story, free roam explorable maps, and deadly creatures. It will to give you a fright with enough action for it to be replayable, alone or with friends. Not only does Black Sierra aim to give you a memorable gameplay experience, but to also give you a replayable singleplayer fright without dulling the second time around by letting you know what's around the corner. With speed on their side, and in a feeding frenzy these creatures will be an opposition to be wary of, for new players and veterans alike. Armed with police quality, and civilian weapons. Tread through forests, towns, mines, and more armed with weapons ranging from the highly powerful G36C, down to simple miner's pickaxe.'

Currently there are a couple of media releases with screenshots of maps and models of weapons. We are still looking for staff to help us bring this mod to reality and perhaps you have the chops to join us? For more details on the mod check out:

Moddb.com

Or check out Black Sierras official site:

Enjoy!
