PRESS RELEASE:
Tarrytown, NY, USA – August 19, 2011 – Independent computer and video game developers have a new ally in their quest to bring players the best electronic entertainment experience. With Sonic Legends, licensing music for your latest game or app is as simple as a few mouse clicks.
“I believe we are offering a very valuable service,” says Erika Lieberman, Sonic Legends founder and lead composer, “particularly to small to mid-sized indie game developers who can’t afford to hire a composer, but want music for their project that is far superior to generic stock music.”
Sonic Legends offers a broad range of original, high-quality music tracks composed for a wide variety of game genres and environments: from epic high fantasy roleplaying game worlds to modern puzzle and card games, and more. All audio files in the Sonic Legends catalogue are CD quality, fully loopable, and available in conveniently edited versions of thirty seconds, one minute, five minutes and full-length (eight to ten minutes).
Says Lieberman,"We have some terrific composers on our team, each with their own strength and voice. Mike Trapp is our guitar-driven rock guy. Jonny Ollsin does ambient, "New Age," far-out stuff. Matthew Steckler is our jazz man. Randin Graves is a world music guru - he plays koto and spent several years in an aborigine village in Australia studying the didjeridu. Joe Matzzie is a multi-instrumentalist with enormous versatility style-wise. Christy Carew, Alex Kovacs and I focus a lot on epic orchestral stuff that's perfect for RPG's, and Christy is great at electronica too. I'm a harpist, Christy's a pianist, and Alex plays woodwinds. But we have some things in common too: we all share an obsession with video games, and we all really love making music for them!"
What sets Sonic Legends apart from other music production houses is the ease with which developers can license music. Once you’ve selected the perfect audio file for your game, your purchase comes with a customized commercial license. That’s it! No hefty licensing fees, no bloated and restrictive contracts, no lawyers, and no waiting. Because everything is automated, Sonic Legends’ Licensing fees are lower than its competitors, making it ideal for small to medium scope projects that don’t have a huge budget.
For indie game developers who need quality music and ambient sound, and need them now, look no further than Sonic Legends.
