Dayeth Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 I need some epic/sinister/eerie/dynamic music to use for a trailer to this computer game I'm making. It can't be obviously modern (eg, matrixy electronicy music) as the game is set in the 1700's and the game is about a villager guy who wakes up on a slightly creepy mystery island (yes think Lost). I've been going through Star Wars and LOTR music and stuff and even Dimmu Borgir, but it's not quite right. Any suggestions (composer/artist/soundtrack etc) would be handy.Cheers in advance.
