If you want me to write music for your mod..

Just if you are making some special Starcraft mod (or map) with graphics or are designing a new race I beleive having an appropriate soundtrack would greatly enhance an atmosphere and general feel of the game. Starcraft music is something genius, and fits the game perfectly, its like it's magic, personality. But if you want to create something new you would like to put music into it. So for those of you who need music, I am a composer/musician, and can create soundtrack for your mod.
If you are interested just ask me (I would need to see your mod) and if it gives me good inspiration be sure that you will have kickass ambience. I mostly write music that is real dark, gloomy, melancholic and crazy ( I mean don't expect me to write another mario or something ^_^), mostly metal with some other things.
And no, I ain't got myspace cause my project is not finished, I don't want to post this, I got few compositions outside of it, but they are small instrumentals and intros.

I'm just a fish

Hmmmm...

Well, I'm not modding anything at the moment, but when I do, I'll certainly keep you mind :)

Perhaps you should upload some of your work so that we can sample it. Although you may be good of heart, you might also be really good at composing really badly - if you get my meaning. You could also be good of heart, and plain really good at composing, which would be great. But we would not know until you gave us a few demo's, samples, etc.

Ermm... ^_^
Firstly, if I offer you that I will compose a soundtrack for your mod, it means I am qualified to do so.
If I am n00b in mod editing, doesn't mean I am at everything else '^^.
Furthermore I can anyways write music badly though it is very unlikely, cause it would mean your mod or whatever gave me shitty inspiration.
I don't know myself what will I create if given a work to do. It will depend on the inspiration I will get, and
I beleive the most important thing is that music will fit exactly that mod, these graphics, atmosphere.
I will share a few samples though, but I don't want to share big projects. Most of my stuff is in MIDI. So if you are really interested you can send me a message in ICQ 221095867, I will send you some more stuff

Hey, that's quite nice, actually. Personally, I prefer Funeral to dark ambient 1.

What program do you use to compose in MIDI? I've yet to actually try to find one I will use often. Finale NotePad 2008 serves like crap.

Well Funeral is better no doubt. I was just digging for some mp3s that I do have.
Guitar pro 4.0
For MP3s I use Cubase SX 3

I listened through your files. BTW: I assume that the title of the song matches with the file name, excluding extensions, for sake of convenience.

-I detest everything about All that was between us, from timbre to pitch, from instrument to tempo.
-Gruesome Tale starts off well but when the background noise comes in, I hate it.
-Intro wasted my time. It may as well be a silent track.
-Finally, Twilight-05 is incredible. It could use a few changes in dynamics and flow, but it is very impressive as it is.

Final verdict: You're skilled. It just so happens that the ones I disliked simply did not appeal to me, whereas another person may like the other songs.

You need better soundfonts. If your software can take gigafonts and you have IM/a very fast internet connection, we can talk.



Show them your butt, and when you do, slap it so it creates a sound akin to a chorus of screaming spider monkeys flogging a chime with cacti. Only then can you find your destiny at the tip of the shaft.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings
[2026-6-20. : 6:15 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
[2026-6-19. : 9:57 am]
Oh_Man -- artosis dropped pretty interesting vid: https://youtu.be/EqZHB8Blra4
