    Hey Developers!

    In case you're on the lookout for new music to your games or other development projects... I've written some new epic music tracks, ready to use, and I'm in the middle of writing 2 new big epic tracks and one dark and slow dungeon crawler background tune.

    This month, I'm running a campaign at Pond5: https://www.pond5.com/artist/ChristianA
    Right now you can find all my songs there for 9.95$ - 29.95$.
    Want it even cheaper? Then I will accept an offer at http://www.youlicense.com/Artist/ChristianAndersson with the same price minus 20% off the Pond5 price.
    I will run this campaign until I have sold 10 tracks there as I want to keep my music pretty unique and I don't want to outsell my other sites.

    At my high end sites I license the same songs for 30-150$ each, and I got a recent placement on MTV to be shown in 60 countries where I was paid a sync fee of 500$ for using 12 seconds of my "Hero of Darkness" in a movie ad.

    Of course, I can also write new tracks for your game projects.
    You can always contact me at craze@craze.se, or visit my site at http://craze.se.
    There you will find all music categorized in case you're looking for some particular mood or genre.

    Latest news:
    - Hollywood A-listed on the top-50-composers-list at one of the world's largest music licensing sites with 2900+ composers.
    - Placement of a song on MTV to be shown in 60 countries world wide

    All right guys, you know where to find me. :)

    Take care, and keep up the good work!
    /Christian

    Quite liked 'Dark Orchestral - 18. Abandoned Village'. I'd shop for a new broadsword to that music.

    Betthoven got it entirely wrong. Scifi music is where it's at.

    5. Galactic Warzone - I like! Will check out other scifi.

    But you probably won't make any money here waiting for developers to release something. How much do you charge to include your music in permanently unreleased mods? (ie. just listen to without Worf telling me its a sample.)

    Hi there,

    You can always listen to my music at Spotify (create a free account, listen for free).
    Search for artist "Christian Andersson".
    Or you can download separate songs or full albums from iTunes / Amazon.

    The Sci-Fi album is not yet distributed on these sites as I will synchronize that release with the game that I wrote the soundtrack for: Empire of the Eclipse.

    But... you might find those sci-fi tracks at Spotify anyway since one of my music agencies has retitled those tracks and distributed them on Spotify.

    Best Regards
    /Christian

    Thanks! First time I see these YouTube clips, actually. :)
    Ah... yeah, it's my "Mining Caves at Planet 09" playing in the background there. It was my first track for this game. They thought it was almost too happy sounding for being a dark space RTS with lots of battle, so the rest of my songs are a bit darker, like for instance "The Outer Regions" that has some heavy and cruel electro guitars in a nice mix with Sci-Fi FX and electro sounds.

    .. and yeah... I am sure this will become a really awesome game by the looks from it. The graphics designer has worked for Blizzard on Starcraft 2 and the lead programmer is really skilled, so I think it will be a success.

    Best...

    As a composer who has done music to film, this was pretty good ChristianAndersson. Good stuff.

    Personally, I'd like something a bit much more darker, but you cover the basic of music needs.

    Excommunicator: Ah, OK. I think it's just being released in the U.S. and some other countries. But it's available at Napster, LimeWire, GreatIndieMusic, Verizon, Amazon MP3, Last.fm, MySpace Music, MediaNet, Apple iTunes, iHeart Radio. Zune, Rhapsody, Tradebit.

    Jaesun: Thanks! Yeah, I lack a lot in the modern/electro dark & sunspenseful genres. Today I got a notification that one of my few songs in that genre was selected for consideration for a 750$ film contract, but I definitely need much more in that genre to pitch on those opportunities.

    Best Regards
