I may compose an album together, but unlikely. Anyway been working on a few gamey beats. Here's some previews of them:

Tell me what you think!
Please contact me if you wish to use these (even as previews)
I'd like to be able to 'control' their use, or at least have credit. :)


Zenith(Posted 2007) [#2]
Hmm, is this even the correct forum for it?


ICECAP(Posted 2007) [#3]
Yeah its the right forum, in the General Discussion good posts like these get drowned out quickly. I am defiantly a fan of people posting their music here, because music is just as important for a game as graphics in most instances.

Good tunes too! They have a very strategy like feel.
Great work.

Very nice game music. Reminds me of the ambient Hitman 2 feeling of missions in exotic cities.


Zenith(Posted 2007) [#5]
I love Jesper Kyd, he's a big inspiration (Hitman series composer) :)

Thanks alot though! I'm excited about it!
I'm considering developing an album: http://www.last.fm/music/Beefok/Digital+Fauna

I love them! could i download them and use them for my game by any chance?


Shambler(Posted 2007) [#7]
Very interesting sound, I liked the first one best.

Excellent!


Zenith(Posted 2007) [#8]
Thank you guys, any feedback or critique on any of the songs?
I had a guy say there wasn't enough "sound spectrum" in one of the songs, that was kind of weird, I need something better than that! XD

Emailed you chwaga :)

The hats need more life, give the hats expression, they're all at the same velocity and generally too high up in the mix.


Zenith(Posted 2007) [#10]
Here's a work in progress: http://zen.noelcower.com/music/beefok%20-%20cheerup.mp3

Thanks Rob! I'm trying to figure out how, actually :D


chwaga(Posted 2007) [#11]
I think that is too repetetive (the one you just posted)


Zenith(Posted 2007) [#12]
reuploaded it, with the latest version of it so far. :)
I think it's a bit too noisy now..


Zenith(Posted 2007) [#13]
hey all, releasing a new song for consumption! :)

Yo! Wazzup?(Posted 2007) [#14]
Every one of them so far is amazing ;)


Grisu(Posted 2007) [#15]
Well done! Sadly, I never have been good at music stuff.

I'm looking for a short repetitive tune for the credits window of my app. Any chance you could compose something for me?


Zenith(Posted 2007) [#16]
Tim - Aww thanks! <:)

Grisu - contact me either on irc (you know the place, blitzed #blitzcoder, what not) or by email, and I can see what I can do for ya!


Zenith(Posted 2007) [#17]
Right, since I last talked -- I've finished 7 new songs, check 'em out! http://www.last.fm/music/Beefok/Digital+Fauna


Yo! Wazzup?(Posted 2007) [#18]
Yay more of your songs to listen to :)


Zenith(Posted 2007) [#19]
Hey y'all, the album is pretty much complete, 19 tracks. :)

Also, just finished a new song: http://zen.noelcower.com/music/beefok%20-%20zarmo.mp3

Dammit, I wish someone was working on an oriental game.. I'd be doing that music right up. :)

Zarmo sounds like an oriental RPG town song to me.. eh? eh? :)


big10p(Posted 2007) [#20]
Mmmm. I feel hungry, now...

I'll have some chow mein, chicken fried rice and prawn crackers, please.

(Yes Zen, I am doing THAT joke again! :D)


Zenith(Posted 2007) [#21]
I love chicken chow fun :D
(Chicken fried rice with chow fun noodles!)


Zenith(Posted 2007) [#22]
Started working on a new album (last one is finished!)
http://www.last.fm/music/Beefok/Stark+Contrast is the album!
http://www.last.fm/music/Beefok/_/Well+Travelled+Path is my latest release! :)
this is also my first live recording with keyboard, but I went in and edited it :)


Blitzblaster(Posted 2007) [#23]
hm...not really exciting for me, sorry but under great and so on i understand more like that.When i hear the the music, i switch to the begin, the middle, and the end and i hear the same.


jfk EO-11110(Posted 2007) [#24]
I found "well travelled path" pretty cool. At least until 1:51, there's something wrong with the drums and/or drama-curve. But basicly it is really cool. I think it would serve well as movie soundtrack.

I wouldn't hold your breath, given that he hasn't been here in the last two years at least.
