Any update on the soundtrack?
« on: June 21, 2009, 03:41:40 am »
Hey Alec, just wondering if there's any news on the soundtrack coming out? I'm still itching to buy it to support you and Derek! Oh, plus the music was pretty damn good.  ^-^

If you guys have decided upon not releasing it, would you mind if I uploaded the whole thing to YouTube? I already have most of it up already but I decided against posting the full thing out of respect of you guys eventually releasing it!

I'd like to release it, its proving to be a difficult project to finish.

I have this song that's like... mostly written. I wanted Jenna to sing it. I also have a number of remixes that friends did.

I don't know though.

Sold! To the man in the glasses! Let me give you moneys!  :o

I love the melodious piano with bits of the main theme snuck in under the radar so you don't realise that the reason you like the song is because you've heard it before in a different tone.  ^-^ ^-^ ^-^ ^-^ ^-^

I've listened to that 15 second clip at least 8 times already.

Please tell me we're gonna get that and the soundtrack...that clip was sooo unfair...it's like teasing a starving person with food.  It's so beautiful...here's hoping we can hear the full thing some day.
I'll keep asking for an Aquaria sequel until we get it, the sequel to the greatest Indie game of all times, and one of the greatest games period.

The fact that he's working on it is probably a good sign  ;)

Yeah, I know its true that the warning is there, but that particular link isn't an attack.

I guess other people have used their dropboxes to attack before?

That's seriously brilliant, even though it's only 15s XD

Just throwing out an idea here, obviously the music from Aquaria doesn't have much singing in it. You have a brilliant style, and you really don't need to back that by relating this in any way to Aquaria. You should consider making some completely original tracks in the awesome style you've demonstrated so far, try to get Jenna as a singer, and I'd hell buy it, be great to add to my mp3 rotation as something beautiful, and somewhat different, I love the haunting yet uplifting vibe you have going.

Seriously, ever considered a career in the music industry? :P

I've actually been writing some more... rock/pop type songs for an album I'd like to do.

Not sure who'd sing it, but yeah... if the Aquaria OST is a success then I'd love to release more music commercially. I was thinking the next step would be a compilation of music from other games that I've written for.
