Forgive the individual thread of this nature, but as I'm late to the table I figured that this would be the best way to let people know I was here.


I am a Musician/Composer looking for any team that can use my abilities!

1. Introduction:

My name is Zak. I am an English guy who is living in Spain - near Barcelona. I worked professionally for Nintendo of Europe translating games from Japanese to English. I worked on the script of games such as Xenoblade and other titles. My main passion, however is music and this is what I would like to contribute.

I have been playing games since the days of the ZX Spectrum (that's before the original NES). Gaming has been a huge part of my life and I've always wanted to get invovled in developement in anyway I can.

While I am looking for paid work, I would also love to contribute to game jams like this, so I can help and keep my skills sharp

2. Skills:

A musician. I can write in a great variety of styles. I am known for my guitaring. I like to provide some 'live' element to music so it's not just electronic loops that everyone can do. I am interested in cinematic and hybrid styles too. But I am not afraid to write a kickass track in the style of Yuuzo Koshiro.

3. Programs/Languages:

My DAW of choice is Reaper. For mixing and mastering I would probably use Izotope. I am happy to learn programming and engines for things that apply to what I need to do.

I am extremely well versed in a variety of real recording techniques as well as advanced VSTs and Kontakt libraries.

4. Portfolio:

My Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/zakrahman

My youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCt2k6odraoEO7APDP...

My Website: http://zakrahman.com/

5. Contact: Email is the best way. I will open to other methods if I am accepted on a team. zak.rahman.composer@gmail.com


6. Other: My main field of expertise is music. But I am an extremely experienced gamer, and enjoy games of all genres. I can bring a lot to the table in terms of game design, scripting and dialogue and more.


Please get in contact. Look forward to working with you.
