Different spy and merc sound themes.

[Theodore W]

I completely agree with your perspective on Amon Tobins' chaostheory, dont worry I dont own any turntables  ;)

Wait until the proper PS website is completed, I am happy to post some of the score on the site, looking forward to sharing them with everyone.

See you guys around next week on metal gear online, I am interested to analyse the methods used in the multiplayer sessions.

Hmm... I'd like to see the Turok2:SoE soundtrack for the mercs ::)

[Theodore W]

With respects, I only write what is appropriate for the project, personal preferences (including my own) come way after that.

Aesthetic decisions should never be based upon pre-existing materials, if the project has a strong art direction in its own right, then so it should have a voice of its own.

Peace out  :)

im not sure exactly what these themes are, you are referring to.  :-[
I have noticed though, the different music that plays at the end of a round on the ump maps. I really like this. Maybe some eager people (if they like this idea) could design some different tunes for the ends of different maps? Maybe if you win/loose?

No crap if you win/lose, that's a big part of the end music. The different music for UMP maps is from Pandora, and it really doesn't change the quality of the game in my eyes, so 2 songs (1 for winning, 1 for losing) are fine.

That's the only thing that you've ever said that I agree with.  But really it's all up to the lead devs like Frvge, Zed, Mic, Kebab, etc...  AND our composer Theodore.

NOt ABout the Music ?!  what drugs are you on kids,  thats what made pandora tomorrow so good  and make me feel as my heart was going to rip out of my chest  at 39 seconds left on the clock counting down from the music / made the atmosphere more intense .

ps has a strong art direction of its own right, the svm concept. and pt is not only a good svm game, but has the most amazing game soundtrack known to mankind and among all stealth games. i fail to see what's wrong about going in that direction. =)

your misunderstanding here as well rambo, he's saying hes not going to try to be someone else and replicate someone elses style of music ,but do what he feels right. . if you listen to the music in the lake house map that is an idea of what kinda music goes into project stealth.

[Theodore W]

Thanks Agent  :) I was just about to post to clarify. Cheers.

well, the pt soundtrack felt pretty damn right ^^

[Theodore W]

Indeed. :) I love Lalo Schifrin's works. You can definitely see some Olivier Messiaen influences in him. Still cannot believe ubi got him to do pt.

[Theodore W]

The atmosphere in "3 Fingerprints" the track used in the lakehouse trailer was inspired by his work on pt but with very different melodic and orchestration approach.

[Farley4Fan]

I think that the game SvM is a pretty cool concept.  A pretty mature one that most people would find pretty interesting or badass.  It's got that espionage kind of theme that I think most composers would love to try and add on with some creepy spy music.  :P

yeah i think it's quite a cool playground for a composer ^^

[Theodore W]

All credit goes to John Barry and Lalo Schifrin, the fathers of the genre. And whoever invented the triangle!  ;D

with any kind of jobs, not just spy genre, its always somewhere inbetween a playground and a warzone.
