itch.io Community » Game Development » Help Wanted or Offered · Created a new topic [PAID][MUSIC] 'Hollywood' Composer? Indie-Friendly!
Are you looking for an audio teammate who is equally happy to be in front of an orchestra or behind a synth array, who reveres the old and embraces the new, and who can leverage decades of training and experience toward making your game the best it can possibly be?
Hi! My name is Kent, and I write narrative music: https://rcrft.co/reel/KentKercher/itchio
I have worked on the music teams for big Hollywood projects such as Justice League, Men In Black: International, and Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, but I really have a special passion for video games. So much of my own love of memorable music and powerful storytelling came directly from Nintendo, Sega, and Sony—in fact, in homage to this, I recently released a couple of Creative Commons CC-BY albums of late-90s-style video game music loops, both available for free on my Bandcamp: https://kentkercher.bandcamp.com.
Interested in talking more? Please reach out here or via DM—I’d love to hear about the fantastical worlds you are creating!

itch.io Community » Game Development » Help Wanted or Offered · Created a new topic [FREE][MUSIC] I'D LOVE TO COLLABORATE WITH YOU! --- INTERESTED? HERE'S A FREE (CC-BY) MUSICAL GIFT!!
New FREE (CC-BY) album of Early 3D/Post-Chiptunes/1990s-2000s VGM loops!
Find it on Bandcamp here: https://kentkercher.bandcamp.com/album/low-poly-loops-volume-one-rowdy-romplers

Low-Poly Loops · Volume One: Rowdy Romplers is the first album in a planned series of albums featuring FREE video game music loops. These LOOPS are all made using the same hardware synthesizers used to create the soundtracks to games made for early 3D gaming systems like the PlayStation (1994), the Saturn (1995), the Nintendo 64 (1996), the Dreamcast (1998), the PlayStation 2 (2000), the GameCube (2001), and even the Wii (2006).
Whether your game is a COLLECTATHON, a SHMUP, a JRPG, a KART RACER, a PUZZLE-ADVENTURE, a TACTICAL RPG, a NARRATIVE ADVENTURE, a PLATFORMER, or otherwise; if you've got a LOW POLYGON COUNT, a LIMITED DRAW DISTANCE, or a CARTOONISH ANTHROPOMORPHIC PROTAGONIST (who may or may not have a COMPLEMENTARY COMPANION); if you're hoping for HISTORICAL ACCURACY or JUST THE RIGHT VIBE, these tracks are for you!
The 28 loops on Rowdy Romplers range in length from 0:07 to 0:19 and are released under the Creative Commons CC-BY license, which means anyone is free to exploit them in any way for any reason as long as Kent Kercher, the composer, is given commensurate attribution in the credits section of the work. Furthermore, if any loop or loops in this collection are used, or if you wish to have a custom music score based on or similar to these loops, please notify the composer via the contact form on his website kentkercher.com.
