Interloper's Composers Index

[ghost12332]

After seeing the idea for the large index of video game composers, I figure why not do the same for all of the composers on Loper's? I know of a couple, but I'm anxious to see how many of us there are.

Reply with the following format and I'll add you to the list

Name: Ryan K A.K.A Ghost
Open for Work: Yes
Contact: ghost12332@gmail.com OR Steam Friends @ ghost12332
Styles: Orchestral, Dark Ambient, Rock & Heavy Metal
Biggest Influences: Arch Enemy, Godsmack, Alice in Chains

I have been exposed to music for almost my entire life from when I started banging at my keyboard from 3, and have now been playing Piano for almost 10 years, Electric Bass for 3, Electric Guitar for 3, and various synths and orchestrals for around 2 years.

My main style of composing would have to be Orchestral Mock-Ups using East West Symphonic Orchestra, hands down the best orchestral plugin you'll ever find. My next style would be an electronica-dark ambiance blend using a super secret package of awesome VSTi's.

Open For Work:Not really open for work right now.

Contact:Contact me at nubblecakes@gmail.com

Styles:Electronica, Down Tempo, Break Beat

Influences:Metroid Prime series, The Rain Crow, Mirrors Edge, Half Life series

I started making music when I was about 13. I looked up Fruity Loops Studio when it was still in version 6, and I ended up catching on to the program quickly and learning one thing after another and soon I was able to make full songs. Since then I've been trying to improve my music daily.

Name: Daniel R ( Ankhsethamon )
Open for Work: No
Contact: ankhsethamon ( Steam Community )
Styles: Piano Improvisation
Biggest Influences: mmm.. none.

I started playing the piano when I was 12 years old.. ( well, the truth is that I started earlier, but nothing really official... at 12 I entered a school ) and studied for 5 or 6 years... Now I play by myself... ( no teaching, I mean)...

At the beginning, I started playing existing melodies and pieces, but now I like the improvisation. I started composing a couple of years ago, but I haven't write anything yet ( I have all in my head for now XD) ...

Name(Real or Lopers): Marek d'Fordewin

Open For Work: I suppose, doubt anyone would be interested though any way.

Contact Info: Email Steam Profile

Main Styles You Compose: Down-Tempo, Dark Electronica, Trip Hop (The British kind not the American kind), Acoustic/Folk, Experimental Music, Noise, Synthobient (Coined by AQi Fzono, a Japanese composer. The term really fits though), Progressive Rock and occasionally Synthpop, Trance, Blues and Metal. Heh, I like to fool around a lot with styles.

Biggest Influences: Bandwise it would have to be Covenant and Celldweller. Other wise it's usually Dystopian-related things like: Brave New World, Neuromancer, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, Children of Men, Avalon, etc. As well as philosophy, mythology, just anything really.

Misc. Description: Thought this would make a good first post, so hello
I've been composing for roughly four or so years, started playing guitar two years ago, bass not so long just bought a new fretless jazz bass a few months ago. I also play keyboards and sing.

Brilliant thread idea!

Name: Arran Seaton
Open for Work: Not really right now!
Contact: arran_seaton@hotmail.com
Styles: hardcore punk, post metal, electro, ambient
Biggest Influences: Have Heart, Verse, Champion, NIN, Genghis Tron, BTBAM, No Made Sense, Johnny truant

Portfolio: I've been in lots of bands, mainly metal related

DEAD:
http://www.myspace.com/penancestarerocks
mad crazy band. basically a college idea. mix of thrash, death metal...but with a jazz drummer. Yeah. I did lead vocals. It was just a bit of fun, i know its a bit shit

Was in another hard rock/metal band called Pariah..very good musicians. It was like 4 years ago. We have a myspace, but no songs on there any more. But I might plan to re-record them, as they really were good.

CURRENT:

After I got tired of failing bands, I took up guitar and decided to make my own project. Called: The Hollow Night. Intended to be small. Have now ended up with an album finished instrumentally in demo form, but no vocals. Demos up on my page
http://www.myspace.com/thehollownightversion2
the production is far better, simply because it's done by me! . I wouldn't decline the offer of someone doing vocals, if anyone's interested. PM me for that. No, seriously.

My other current project, soon to become band is The Last Premise. Just started this up. A progressive hardcore punk outfit. current demo's are all me but, i have found other musicians now! stay tuned for that!
http://www.myspace.com/thelastpremise

both these projects hopefully have the potential to go places, as I know guitarist of bristol metal band Evita,(http://www.myspace.com/evitaband who offered to forward my songs to their label Basick Records once vocals were done. They have just broke up but, he's a nice dude, I'm sure he hasn't lost the contacts

Also have a electro project going under The Hollow Night monikor. I will upload some of those tracks tomorrow.

Finally, I am contributing musical ideas to peegee's S.T.T.& R. mod concept, though I'm assuming this will remain under wraps till whenever the time comes!

OTHER INFO:

I can also do artwork if requested, but not for free anymore. got ripped off by a local band i did an EP layout for, so I have guide prices on my page. Also one of my designs was actually stolen by a small US deathcore band, no joke. Couldn't do anything as i was young and hadn't copywrited my work. They are shit, so who cares. See old stuff here:
http://www.myspace.com/epicartworks

I play guitar/bass/drums, have experience with MIDI/Keyboard programming and do vocals (of the harsh variety)
Equipment:
Artic White Vintage Les Paul copy
Legacy Bass (rubbish)
ESP guitar
Carillon MIDI keyboard
t.c. electronic Audio Interface
AKG c1000s condenser mic
Mic PopShield

Software:
REAPER workstation
Guitar Rig 3
Lots of random plugins

Cheers, and hope you find something of interest!

I'm probably going to ask someone to help me make some creepy / eerie music for Left 4 Dead 2. This list might be useful.
Can I suggest we actually sticky this thread?

now we need an "interlopers voice talent index"

[Zipfinator]

Vasko, I might actually need some of your music soon. I haven't listened to anything of yours but from what I've read it's great and if you're influenced by NIN then I'm sure I'll like it. I already have one composer for my mod but you could take a shot. Can always use more music.

Sound good mate,
Just sling me an e-mail with details and I'll have a look
