Update

Posted by nathanallenpinard - March 16th, 2010


I keep forgetting about this page, so I'm going to do one large update:

NOTE: These pieces are NOT under the CC license and are not available for use.

This is a series of pieces I wrote for an indie game, utilizing only Cinematic Strings for strings.

I did put some verb on it using Peter Roo's L96 IRs.

I'm still not 100% with this lib, but I'm getting there. There are a few moments that I can tell. Mainly because I can sometimes swell a bit much. Vibrato control is an art form as well.

Here are some more modern sci-fi'ish pieces I did using entirely omnisphere, ,trillian, and RMX. I'm getting a bit more creative with it, but I've got a long way to go. Due to the way I compose, I usually use the presets and add effects. These are loops for the game. They are meant to be repetitive but then "pop out" at times.

Here's a loop that I used SD2, Tsaiko, and Tonehammer's Ambience lib on. It's a very simple droning piece with some drums. I decided to go the opposite way when it comes to "boss" music.

All the tracks above are for the indie game "Boryokudan Rue" set to release soon.

And finally for another game, I wrote a new age/orchestra inspired piece using CS, PMI's Old Lady piano, Omnisphere, Tsaiko, and SD2. This is a WIP as I intend to remix a bit, and add a live nepal flute.

Honestly dude, you need to seriously consider cutting your own CD for this style of music. It is incredibly relaxing!

I have always loved smooth jazz, but never got into it a whole lot since there was an aspect to it that was always missing in my mind. Everything else!

I think with a combination of electronic and jazz instruments, and various miscellaneous sounds to add to all of the arrangements, you can create a stunning sound.

Btw the fourth sound hurt my ears once the chords hit in. I'd suggest lowering the frequency or something. Good song though
