Post #20: The Music Man

All of Pixel Licker’s games have benefitted from the musical talents of one man.  Well, two if you count my fumbling around in bfxr.  That man is Matt Creamer aka Norrin Radd.  We were introduced when Slayin 1 needed a few tracks, but after talking with Matt, it was obvious he had a deep understanding of chip and contemporary music.  The guy is a dynamo when it comes to nailing a range of styles, but we really wanted him to do one thing: make Slayin 2 rock!

Not just rock, but early 90’s Japan era arcade rock.  Stuff that gets your blood pumping and occasionally drills its way into your brain.  The stuff that reminds you when you pick up the controller that no monster is safe from your coming onslaught.  And boy did he deliver.  Every area of the game has a theme song, ranging from mysterious to adventurous to let’s kick some butt.

We really hope the soundtrack clicks with players.  A lot of years went into its creation.  Matt even gets a cameo in Slayin 2 as Norrin the bard.  So please make sure to stop and help him out when you see him.  We also can’t recommend Matt enough to devs who need music for their projects.  He is a joy to work with and can do almost anything.  Check out his stuff here.
