Title: Music for Supreme Commander
Post by: Hot_Dog on December 20, 2011, 12:11:34 am
For a college final in composition, I wanted to write music for the game Supreme Commander, an RTS game.   One of the playable races is called the Cybran, a race of cyborgs.  So I created music for two moments. One song is for when you start the game.  (Growth and Anticipation -- the Cybran prepare for the upcoming battle)  Then the other song is the first battle, the first encounter.  I was inspired by Starcraft for "Growth and Anticipation", and I was inspired by Donkey Kong Country 3 for "The First Battle" (despite the fact that the guitar sounds like Starcraft)

You can also download the scores, but I must warn you, my grades for the class came from actual recordings rather than the quality of the printed music.  Also, the scores aren't fully accurate, because some of the sounds and instruments were done manually during recording/sound editing rather than from the composition software I was using.  The score for Growth and Anticipation comes in 2 parts, and Part II of Growth and Anticipation is what happens onward from the moment you hear the distorted guitar interrupt the men's choir.

Some weird issues with the rar files. Can you fix those?

this looks like a great collection of music, and I have to agree that the score doesn't look much compared to the music track. And @DJ_O that's the first time I've seen you 'bump' a topic like this only 5 days after the previous post.
Also,
You have to download all three of the rar files and put them together in a folder then extract them?

Yeah I just thought he didn't see our posts. As for the rar files I guess I could try that, although Hot Dog m ighyt want to explain this in his first post so people notice.

DJ, thank you so much for bumping this, and I'm sorry that I didn't explain about the file being in three parts.  I thought that when people saw ".part1", ".part2" and ".part3" they would know.  I goofed ;D

Yeah not everyone are aware we can do that with RAR files XD. I myself just put them in one part anyway.

Yeah I learnt it from download pages which have files in 10+ .part rar files, so I thought that when people got confused.
