EXPERIENCED MUSICIAN FOR FREE

Hi! My name is Sam Axup and I’m a 21 year old freelance musician from Yorkshire, UK who’s new to the gaming industry. I’ve had over 6 years of experience writing and playing music both in a band and for my own personal enjoyment. I’ve had the time of my life playing around the country with my band in front of hundreds of people as well as recording multiple releases, being a session guitarist and even organising events. Music has been my one love and passion ever since I picked up a guitar. However, I’m now looking for something more flexible and enjoyable from a personal point of view.
I’m currently offering my services for FREE to gain some experience and build a portfolio for a career in soundtrack composing. I am willing to compose music from a huge variety of styles as I thrive under a challenge, but I personally specialise in music that is emotional, ambient, orchestral, dark, epic, etc. I also have experience as a guitarist in rock/ metal bands, so I can also work around those genres if you’re looking for something a bit different or extreme for your game.
My influences for soundtracks stem from my love of games like The Elder Scrolls series and Minecraft, and movies like The Lord Of The Rings trilogy. I love music that takes you on a journey or can make you feel emotions that enhance the experience and immersion of playing a game. I personally admire Jeremy Soule and his work on The Elder Scrolls games, purely for the diversity of emotions his music reflects whilst encompassing the epic proportions of the games.
