Now that that's over with, let me introduce myself. I'm AppleJared (or AJ) and I'm in charge of music for a brand new indie gaming company called SharkBird Studios. I am the head composer and producer. I've been a brony for some time now and I know how good some of you guys are at music so I wanted to open this up here before I went somewhere else. I'd like to help a brony or two get their music in our video game.

Now to clear one thing up: this isn't an MLP game due to several facts that are not limited to copyright issues and limited audience. I can't say much about the game right now but I can say that it's going to be awesome and I am also working with the guys on a story line right now.
Anyways...
In short, I'm offering an assistant position to no more than 2 composers/producers from here. I'm looking for all-rounders who can work with basically any kind of genre but specialize is dubstep and film-type composition. I'm stressing the fact that most of what we will do for Feel free to leave some of your best work as well as a brief description of yourself and your specialties.
This project will require a good bit of time and devotion on your side and I'll need to be sure you can put several hours a week into this. I prefer you to have FL Studio but if you can work around the difference in DAW, you're still very much welcome to audition.
I already have a small music team of 2 producers under me right now, I just want to add a bit more flavor to the team right now. We usually communicate through Skype and we use DropBox for transfers. If you make the team, I can promise we will have a great time doing this. Deadlines are kept to a minimum to stress quality over quantity, and you'll never hear me screaming or raging because you couldn't finish a song. We're here to make great music and have fun.
As for money, there is a 100% chance you won't be paid anytime soon. However, depending on how well you contribute and how well our first game sells, you might get a small lump sum in the future. But I must warn you that THERE IS NO PROMISE FOR MONEY. That being said, if we make a couple bucks, you might see some of that as well. What I CAN promise, however, is that you will see your name in the credits and we will provide a link to your work in the game.
If any of this interests you, feel free to contact me by putting your audition information here and then giving me an email at ([email protected]). Once again, if you are interested, list your:
DAW
Playable Instruments
Recording Equipment
Years of experience
and at least one (or more) example of your work.
I can't stress the fact that while this is a bunch of fun, this is also a very serious endeavor. If you make it on here, you will be making legitimate video game music. Good Luck!
