Title: Artist working on Shadowrun-specific music.
Post by: hazmat the monstar on <10-14-10/1509:55>
I have decided that on top of my tremendous workload. ( I'm mixing a new album right now ) I will try to do a couple shadowrun songs. My first will be "Welcome to the Shadows". It will be hardcore rap. A little bit cliche as far as shadowrun goes. But nobody's done it before, and i want it to complement shadowrunning(obviously).
What do you think?

Sweet! HEY CATALYST CREW! Would it be ok for him to work in some corp names? Like, do a hate song from an underground rapper against the rule of NeoNET or some such? That would ROCK!

Just so you know, you do that and I might be forced to use it in a game... ;)

Ah, DocChaos, I like you more every day. That's exactly the kind of feedback I was looking for. If the infamous FastJack(lol) uses my music in a game, i will check another box in the "life accomplishments". j/k. I'm not THAT nerdy. But no... seriously. lol

Actually, there even is official Shadowrun music: The following track (not video) was published as an ingame adventure prop for the adventure "Into the Shadows" by Pegasus (the mission involved music biz, as you might have guessed)

"Although The Retrosic once more postpone their eagerly anticipated live DVD, they manage to stay behind schedule but ahead of their time – 62 years ahead to be precise. Band leader Cyrus ends up in the world of games for the first time, where he and virtual superstar Doria Gray appear shoulder to shoulder in the most successful fantasy-scifi role-playing game of all times. Obviously, we are talking about Shadowrun and its cyperpunk cosmos of 2070. Beside Cyrus' special guest appearance, the new adventure ''Into the Shadows'' will, for the first time in Shadowrun's almost 20-year long history, feature a correspondent in-game song of the same name. Sure enough, The Retrosic themselves account for this contribution – in collaboration with and under the audible influence of Doria Gray and her powerfully voiced soprano vocals. ''Into the Shadows'' is in many ways groundbreaking for the genre and will, instead of being published in the usual print format, be distributed as a limited promotional CD with all kinds of multimedia gimmicks from the German Shadowrun publisher Pegasus."

If you go to Doria's MySpace page, she has the song up there to listen to.

That's cool as hell. More widely accepted than rap, and a lot more work put in than I planned on. I love Germany.
