Hi guys! Dom here from SUPERMASSIVE QUAzAR, Montreal. Am a multi-instrumentalist freelance music composer with experience (had record contracts, publishing contracts, worked with a bunch of independent international artists, etc), am basically living in studio and recorded more than 400 tracks, currently composer for independent films (usually dark, twisted projects, although I pledge no allegiance to no style of music), and now trying to make my way into the busy world of freelance game music composing. So I put things in context here : making music for games is exactly what I aim to do. So what sets me apart aside than that? Well, first and foremost, I tend to be quite versatile, and melody driven, quick and professional. I also like my music organic and emotional, and I often try to go ways you'd probably least expect it. And at the same time, I can also do more of a classical approach if needed. Aside from a having huge (growing) collection of songs, I also make some cool videos to make the experience a little more unique and interesting. I have more than 30 of them on my youtube page. There's many types of them. There's the ones where I re-did entirely the sound work as well, like this one : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-g2trYtJRiE Or this one : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F91i4CFO16M There are a few where I use original in-game sounds : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzI0FrD2TIo Or just simple and plain videos with no sound : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDdhLHz7owg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaeoTad1hZ4 (I'd just like to point out that I don't mean no disrespect to the original creators - I re-did sound design only because those videos are quite fun to do) For more songs , check out : https://soundcloud.com/supermassive-quazar Or : http://www.supermassivequazar.ca/ You can contact me anytime. I want to get involved. It's not about the money, it's about getting out there, and be a part of a project. Something shameful about me : even with my bada$$ attitude, my passion for heavy melodic rock music and metal, I still cried like a baby when I saw Nobuo Uematsu in Distant World, Montreal, last December. There you go!
Your song on your soundcloud, Waiting for the prey, is pretty awesome! Maybe categorizing your songs or put more info in the titles would help the person looking at your portfolio Keep it up Dom
Hey Dom! Thanks for the tips, and thanks for listening. Yeah I'm gonna have to upgrade my SoundCloud, I'm already at the end of my rope and I still have more than 75 other songs to upload, and, like you said, it need a bit of categorizing.
I'd like to invite you all to check the new songs I uploaded on my Cloud ("Exalted", "Ikimashou (Let's Go!)", "Doomsday Test"). https://soundcloud.com/supermassive-quazar I really want to make soundtracks for games. Thank you for listening and considering Supermassive Quazar as a music composer.
Update Here's yet another video of mine. 3 songs. I also painstakingly went above and beyond re-creating the sound design as well, for a more immersive experience. Comments? Thoughts? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2bgIU8y2HQ
