Johan,

Thank you for looking into composing for Secret Chronicles again.  It may be some days before I can check out and think on the music you've posted, though I really enjoy checking out people's compositions.  Quintus may also reply to you soon; I'm cc'ing everyone on our email distribution list in this email.

I hope things improve with your music releases on different sites.  That kind of thing can be a battle.

-Chris

Hi Chris!

Let me be honest here. I've been really busy getting my music going since I also had a good deal releasing my music on Spotify among other services. But since they closed down I'm currently free for new assignments. I've invested around €1500 in new gear and software, including a DJ controller, and a few really awesome synths as well as an outstanding drum library that is suited for movie and game music. Another library I bought is the famous Transform library for Kontakt that gives me all sorts of electrical mechanical and outworldish sounds. A few examples of new songs I've composed that I don't mind get into the game:


Johan Brodd - Native chants

A native american chant with a nice beat going, perfect for any mountaineous world


Johan Brodd - Days left to see

Eastern European influenced gypsy jazz with trumpet, violin, vibraphone, and guitar.


Johan Brodd - Under streams

Synthetic vibes with a fresh uplifting slow paced rhythm. Might be something for any cavern levels or underwater levels.


Johan Brodd - State of flux

A very strange and oddworldy song. Like forgotten science being rediscovered and applied with failing modern technologies.


Johan Brodd - Darker than black

A really hard hitting track with a very intricate flow and rhythm. Kinda chip tunesque, but it tells a story on it's own.

This song is not meant for any game, but it shows the drum library and transform library a bit in use:

Johan Brodd - No more sorrows
