From today to the 5th of July this year I'll be running a promotion. You can get a song up to 2 minutes in length! Looped or non-looped, your decision. Just put me as your referrer! (Limit 3 per person!) ;)


Here's three examples of what you might expect!


Edit: Extended to the 13th.

I like it.  I think you've managed to get a wide expressiveness in there, so that the listener has plenty of space to hear it in many different ways.  This makes it a versatile piece to use.

Just heard about the promotion. Thanks for hosting it! You're a really amazing composer! :D

======

Musical Type: Orchestral
Theme: Terror, Fear, Trepidation, Horror, Atmospheric, Final Boss Theme, Intense, Shock
Description: Overall, this song should be a terrifying song with the intensity of a final boss theme and the eeriness and terror of a frightening horror game track.
The beginning of the song should have a suspenseful build up that goes like this song's. It sounds like drums are being used:
(IN VIDEO: 1:13 and onwards.)





Then it should fade in to something similar to this song (although a bit more intense), along with a intense haunting background piano melody:
For the song: [iN VIDEO: From 0:00 to 0:40 Exactly]




For the haunting background melody, something similar to this Silent Hill song. IN VIDEO: 0:28 and onward]:

(Extra Note: The melody should go a bit... crazy sometimes, for instance, they melody will play and then it sometimes changes to high notes quickly/randomly. It's kind of like the piano melody in the "Ambient" song you made for me, not too long ago. Where if you listened to the ambient song closely, you could hear the piano keys escalating in tone and/or random notes being played. The Ambient song you created is really a masterpiece made for horror. :D )

Frick, I'm so sorry. here's your ambient track. Again, very sorry!

Instruments (Optional): Piano

My apologies, the shop will be on a temporary hiatus until I can get a new PSU for my desktop computer. I will extend the promotion for a week, so you'll be able to put your request up until the 13th.

If I've understood correctly, I can come back for a second track.  If that's the case, here is what I would like.

Musical Type: Orchestral

Theme: Rural, quiet
Description: This is for the sort of place that is basically just 3 houses and a cow shed. Not one of those perky, jolly, rural type themes, because it's a place where just a small number of people get on with their lives with little interference from outside.  They keep themselves to themselves and would be quite grateful if you did the same, thank you very much.
Instruments (Optional): Whatever you think would fit
Unwanted Instruments (Optional): n/a
Max Length (Optional):1:30 - 2:00   Exact length to be determined by you so that it loops seamlessly
Limited to wanted instruments?: n/a
Loop?: Yes please
Referrer (Optional)[Archduke

Thank you.

Hey! New to this whole thing, but your music is amazing!

Ha, just gonna throw my request out there.

Musical Type: Orchestra
Theme: Dark, lonely, lost
Description: (The protagonist is trapped in a forest slowly turning people into trees, and she has to find a way to stop it.) Foreboding would be the best way to describe it. Soft, soothing melody with an almost discordant undertone, if that makes sense. 
Instruments: piano, maybe violin and cello 
Unwanted Instruments: drums, base, snare
Max Length: 1 min
Limited to wanted instruments?: n/a
Loop?: yes please

Thanks ^_^

[b]Limited to wanted instruments?[/b]:Nope

I'm not very good at describing stuff, but anything similar to those songs will do.

Uhh, lots of confusing description here. How's this? I can make something else if it's not what you wanted. I was not entirely sure. o-o

Hey, could you give me more information on what it is you had in mind? It's very vague and I'm not really sure what to make, since there are so many options.

Although the song is great, it's not really what I had in mind though.

Sorry I had given you a not very good description... If you can create a different song, can I rework the request for the new song? (changed request below)

[This reworked request is different and asks for a different type of song so you can disregard the old request and it's description.]

Musical Type: Orchestral

Theme: Atmospheric, Eerie, Ominous, Dark, Panic

Description: This song will be used for the title screen of a horror game. The song should be very ominous and filled with trepidation. A feel for this song would be like you feel that something terrible is going to happen or someone is coming to get you. Fear of the unexpected. An example would be this song:




A suspenseful, frightening, dark piano melody should play in the background of this song. For example:

https://youtu.be/kbSO8UZpMPc?t=51

(The example of the melody in the video plays at 0:51)

Instruments (Optional): Piano

Unwanted Instruments (Optional): Drums.

Max Length (Optional): 2 minutes

Limited to wanted instruments?: No

Loop?: Yes

Referrer (Optional): Archduke
