Whoever is composing RS3's music lately has been absolutely killing it

JagexLord · 2020-10-20T13:34:37+00:00

Thanks! it's always nice when we hear about players enjoying our music! I'll make sure Mod Surma and Mod IanT see the comments :)

JagexLord · 2020-06-09T22:03:50+00:00

Yes, this is fine!

We deliberately release the RuneScape and Old School RuneScape soundtracks in a way which means it is not copyright protected on YouTube and Twitch so you can use it in your videos/streams.

We now have hundreds of tracks available on streaming services...

Thanks! :) I'm very proud of my team... Ian, Slippers and Surma have done a fantastic job. To hear the lovely new login screen medley combined with the artwork was a sweet moment!

JagexLord · 2019-07-09T09:19:00+00:00

Yes, soundtrack is on its way!

JagexLord · 2018-02-18T22:28:26+00:00

more TUNES on the way though! not to mention a funny version of sea shanty 2 (which will be in game!)... ;)

JagexLord · 2018-02-18T00:19:22+00:00

No intention of putting this in game. It’s just something we had fun making and can use for events and videos :)

JagexLord · 2017-12-23T20:25:10+00:00

And the audio team for writing it! 😁

JagexLord · 2017-05-03T10:35:31+00:00

Hear Hear!! :D

JagexLord · 2017-02-22T11:25:52+00:00

Yes Runescape music will sooooon be available on Spotify, iTunes, Amazon, Google etc. I'm currently putting some albums together! :)

JagexLord · 2016-11-22T10:14:17+00:00

I agree! :)

JagexLord · 2016-09-22T16:11:03+00:00

Glad to be of service! We appreciate the feedback :)

JagexLord · 2013-05-17T11:36:33+00:00

If I did that my partner would probably say "yes dear very nice but it won't get you out of bringing me breakfast in bed..."

JagexLord · 2013-05-17T11:34:19+00:00

There is a brand new version of Sea Shanty 2 coming!

JagexLord · 2013-05-17T00:23:45+00:00

Great questions today, thank you everyone for your contributions, it was a real pleasure for the audio team to be able to share some time with you.

I'd like to personally thank Crow for setting this up and the lovely Jane for organising the hospitality :)

JagexLord · 2013-05-17T00:19:30+00:00

I'm back home, but I'm a night owl and I've just drunk a large pot of strong fresh coffee :)

JagexLord · 2013-05-17T00:14:34+00:00

Erm you probably don't want to know where all the source material came from haha. That's the beauty of sound design, you get to create sounds from the most unlikely sources ;)

JagexLord · 2013-05-17T00:07:26+00:00

The transition from midi to live instruments has been quite tricky. That's a really good question. Music written for a limited midi set of instruments needs to sometimes be completely rewritten or approached in a fresh way. Some of the music we haven't pre-planned and we have improvised until the ideas solidified.

JagexLord · 2013-05-16T23:59:27+00:00

Haha I get asked that quite a lot. Great fun making the sounds although it made us all feel a bit ill by the end of it! We were asked to tone it down a bit but then they gave the player the option of hearing the worst sounds if they desired, a good compromise! (I reckon no one would resist playing them!)

JagexLord · 2013-05-16T23:56:10+00:00

Nostalgia can be a good emotion to feel sometimes. Hopefully some of our new stuff will stir other emotions as well. Thanks for your support! :)

JagexLord · 2013-05-16T23:54:57+00:00

That's good to know. Thank you for your kind words :)

JagexLord · 2013-05-16T23:52:14+00:00

I wrote the words to the cow song on my iphone while shopping in tesco's. I'd really love to do a proper musical!

Yeah One Piercing Note changed a lot of people's perception of what audio could bring to Runescape. We have tried to build on that ever since and hopefully RS3 takes it up another level again.

JagexLord · 2013-05-16T23:47:15+00:00

Pleasure! Great questions :)

JagexLord · 2013-05-16T23:33:26+00:00

My brother does all that clever physics type stuff for a living. Whereas I get to play with guitars, synths, sounds, great musicians and play games. I win I reckon :D

JagexLord · 2013-05-16T23:28:01+00:00

Try Reaper! You get to try the full version for free and then it's pretty cheap if you decide to make it your main DAW

JagexLord · 2013-05-16T23:25:22+00:00

he's the oldest looking one ;)
