    I actually started a piece of music the other night that\'s kind of spacey (heavily Star Trek inspired). It\'s only an intro mind!

    I\'m almost always thinking of sci fi films and games when I write! I\'d love to have a crack at a game like Starmade, especially when it\'s something I\'m really excited about from a player\'s perspective.

    But I\'m sure the SM guy(s?) already have something in mind for that. Here\'s some more if any of you are curious!

    Anyway whatever they decide to do I\'m sure it\'ll be awesome!

    I mean, it\'s not bad music per say, it\'s just really not right for Minecraft. I find it kind of depressing.

    No one said they have to be exclusive rights. That would bring the cost down significantly, I think. In addition, there are probably some indie artists out there who would agree to something of this nature at little to no cost, particularly if it gets their name out there . There is also quite the wealth of older songs out in the public domain; classical music wouldn\'t be totally out of place, I think.

    Ideally some indie artists or hobbists would offer to write music for free. I would if I knew what I was doing...

    Thanks Heskey! A bunch of stuff, but mainly Cubase 7, Kontakt 4 (old but I can\'t afford the upgrade yet), Reason. FWIW I dropped Schema an email. I don\'t know if he already has someone in mind for music/sound (maybe he\'s not planning any at all!) but I\'d love to work on a few atmospheres and background pieces for a game like this. I\'d happily work without payment if it helps the development of the game, and sort it out later if/when it takes off! Right now I just need the experience/credit.

    That intro peice is awesome. I could totally see that playing in Starmade.

    This thread seems to keep coming back.

    This was my approach from a while ago, one is finished, other one is concept:

    I have some plans for battle music, maybe I\'ll look into something either tonight or tomorrow :)

    EDIT: might remaster that first one too, was a bit sloppy there
