I need help with some MIDI music for a game I'm making. (As I have absolutely no musical talent what-so-ever) Whoever helps me (If anyone) will, of course, get full credit for the music.

I will need about 13 songs and they will be mostly action oriented. I will contact via DC mail those who wish to help me.

Thank you so much to any and all who help me.

I would help, but I'm doing musics for other people, and I'm supposed to be making some games as well.

Ask Josh Whelchel

Same as Noodle, with the addition I do module music and not MIDI.

Why do I even reply?

I don't think Whelchel works for free, by the way.

"$25 per track, or $10 per minute."

Unless this guy's real first name is Beethoven or some shit, it's a rip-off. I know he doesn't do only MIDI, but still..

The only way this could be a fair price would be if the guy set up a (drum) kit, mic'd the lot, threw it to a 2" reel and added some real guitars and etc. on top of it. And then good luck getting anyone to buy it. No offense, but you can get people to make you some good songs for free, or maybe ALL of them for $5-10, not $25 a pop. Ask around and you'll be okay.

Actually I think his name was Ludwig van Beethoven, and not the other way around.

Music simply is very expensive, I guess... so perhaps it's not a rip-off. But after listening to a variety of his samples, I must say I think it is. Cheaper than "real" composers, maybe, but not exactly quality either. $25 for a song... that's at least $200 for a game. Gawd.

Josh Whelchel is one of the most talented music artists around, his prices are well worth it. So quit your complaining, he's not forcing you to pay for his services.

Not everything grows on trees.

Oh... sorry! I forgot that on TDC you're not entitled to your opinions. Yeah, he sure is one of the most talented music artists around. That's why he's only done music for games I've never heard of. How ignorant of me. Please forgive my stupidity and lacking taste.

£200 is nothing if you're making a serious commercial game. Now obviously we aren't, so it sounds dear to us.

If you ask really really nicely, he might just make a song or two for you (similar to Spiderhead). Wouldn't pin your hopes on it though.

Josh's stuff is indeed good, but his music is a bit too "happy" for my tastes.

I'm still waiting to find someone who makes fast tempo, industrial-metal like music.

Yeah, I suppose if you're doing something commercial with the MIDI or what ever, it could be well worth it, but us average klikers making freeware wouldn't waste the money when there's places like technomidi.com and www.vgmusic.com fpr soem nice midis.

Whispers Within, I wasn't actually referring to your post, but to Del Duios. Don't jump on the defensive wagon.
