[FVG]: Music
 
we covered the sound effect stuff, but nobody has discussed music yet...

i see a few choices here:

-we have no music

-we have somebody write theme music original to the game

-we strike deals with garage bands where we can use their music free in exchange for promoting it nationwide through the game.


any other ideas? after some time i will post a poll, so don't go making a new thread for one lol :)

If we could find someone, that would be awesome.

Um, ok, if you know any with good music... :D

It would be very cool if we managed to get a theme song written for us. Also, I don't know about copywrites and stuff that might apply, but we could try to get the playlist used at competitions and see if we could incorporate those in. (Copywrites on the songs obviously. Not the playlist... :rolleyes: )

well, there is this band from Jersey that is fairly new. I don't know if we can get them for free or not though. They are called the Bamboo Shoots. They are alt. rock with indian influence. I am not sure that their music fits the mood of a robotics competition that much, maybe one or two songs, but in general not. "Talking to Death" might work, or "Interstate 95," but other than that it wont go well at all with the game.

Is this music for the intro sequence or during the game? You could probably get away with just crowd noise during the games.

Both, really, but we could definitely use some music for the opening.

now that i think about it, my friend nick is really good at playing several instruments. i haven't heard any of his original work, but the next time i talk to him i'll ask him if he would do something for this. he has never had anything released, so i'm sure he would be eager to get in on this

there's a lot of free, original music available at newgrounds, and you can email music authors to get their permission to use their music, they'll usually say yes. you have to click on the authors profile to get his email address, if its listed.

ive actually never listened to anything from there, but it's an option that's available.

I know a guy who is amazing with synthesized music and such, and would probably create you free theme music, or for a small charge. I'll see if I can get a sample of some of his music for ya..

When you first start the game and it goes to the main menu, how about this on repeat for backround music. I'm working on getting it to repeat right now. Tell me what you think.

EDIT: Thanks to Dori for getting this hosted so you all can download it.

How about an option for the player to compile their own playlist for the game from songs they have on their computer. It would add complexity, and you might need to write a plugin for Winamp or something, but I think it would be worth it.
