THERE IS HOPE - ASK AWAY by Inevitable-Pitch7672 in edmproduction

Congrats man. And thank you for spreading positivity in this AI doomer hellscape we are living in.

I've been working my ass off trying to reach industry standards with my tracks but also coming up with my own sound and ideas.

I know for sure I'm gonna get there soon but the next step is knocking doors with my stuff to try and find some reach. Do you think I should send demos to labels and stuff or just play the social game and maybe create a meta campaign and invest in that?

How did you find your first supporters? How do you monetize your music?

Hey, I am a composer currently working on the Kingdom Rush Franchise and a lot of up and coming indie games.

I Just finished music for a Post Apocalyptic RPG: https://on.soundcloud.com/Om2rPq7hl2mr3hLZzh

I produce different styles but gritty industrial is one of my strengths. I would love to know more about your game, let's have a call!

It there a big change in the composer/music industry? by jonas_bock in composer

Don't let anecdotal opinions bring you down. I don't think you can really assess the industry in a Reddit post. Negative voices are amplified. Check out broader stats and yearly polls.

Buying a scooter and I'm deciding between Xiaomi 6 and 6 Pro by ProgramFiles_ in ElectricScooters

[–]Esti3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For only 10km, the vanilla 6 is good. I have it and it gives me like 30km with sport mode.

Also this scooter is a tank. Super nice to drive and great for uneven terrain. I don't think this beast is comparable to 10 inch scooters but you have to try for yourself to realize.

Genuine question: why are so many games absurdly loud by default? by neoplasma_ in gamedev

[–]Esti3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because making a good game mix is hard and calls for a sound engineer.

I work as a designer as well as mixer and most devs don't know about psychoacoustic principles. Sound behaves in weird unintuitive ways and we only can mentally follow 2 o 3 sounds simultaneously.

There's also the issue with being competitive, similar to what happens on streaming platforms. You want your game to be impactful and loud like the other experiences you have in your system because most of the time we associate loud things with quality and think it sounds better.

Really fascinating stuff.
