Seeking Multiple Professional Composers [CLOSED]

[NaiDriftlin]

We are looking for multiple professional composers to create 2-4 pieces for us each.

We are particularly interested in composers with backgrounds revolving around Jazz, R&B, and Ambience tracks, however we are also exploring other high quality composer-musicians for our project. For reference, see tracks similar to what you might find in LA Noire, Persona 4, and horror/atmospheric games for our primary needs. If your background does not specialize in these areas, feel free to submit portfolios to us for consideration, as we may not be fully able to articulate our needs.

We are creating a mystery VN set in a major US city, featuring a young protagonist in a particularly filthy world. You can see more details on our website at http://RemortStudios.com We are currently developing for our polished demo, and are paying for quality tracks to help bring it to life.

Details/What we want from the composers:

Professional, preferably experienced, composers. Experience in other Visual Novels, Games, TV/Film a major plus.
Excellent communication skills. Native English not required, but you must be able to clearly communicate with our team.

Exclusive, unlimited rights to the tracks, with the right to create derivative works(Remixes/Reprisals.) Negotiable to an extent.
You will retain authorship credits, and will be listed as the creating/original artist in the original and all derivative works.
The right to sell the track as part of a combined soundtrack for our projects. Non-negotiable.

If we acquire additional funding to continue work on the product, composers who have worked for us on our demo will be preferred for our later production.

The demo (this product) features violent content.
Later production may include violent and/or sexual content.

Feel free to reach out to us on Twitter (@RemortStudios), by e-mail (Nai@RemortStudios.com) or here with portfolio submissions and rates.


UPDATED September 12, 2016

We're getting close to wrapping up our recruitment efforts. We have started working with two composers to start for paid samples and we expect we will be using them for a portion of our musical needs. We're still accepting portfolios, work samples and rates for this phase of our production, and will keep a hold of all remaining portfolios for later consideration for our final production.

We have yet to outright reject anyone, as nearly all of the provided portfolios have excellent samples relevant to our VN. That said, the competition is fierce, as we've received over 30 portfolios from our combined recruitment efforts. It's been an honor to have this sort of response, and I'd like to thank everyone for their time and patience thus far.

Thank you very much, and we look forward to hearing from you soon!

So were you just joking when you posted in my thread, or... what's up with that.

So were you just joking when you posted in my thread, or... what's up with that.

We were serious about listening to your work and enjoying what we heard.

We wound up making other arrangements for the time being. Sorry we weren't able to reply sooner, but we have a relatively small team and quite a number of applicants between here and Twitter.

If our needs change, we'll re-open this post.

Thanks!

Nice to know I was brought up as a possible side dish for the buffet instead of a serious consideration.

[NaiDriftlin]

Sorry if we've offended you!

We're pretty new at this whole head-hunting thing, and our etiquette might not be up to snuff. We have kept everyone's contact information and portfolios should our arrangements change or our needs grow, but I'd understand if you'd rather us not contact you.

Sorry about that, and thanks for your time!
