The Professional Musicians Guild has developed a new contract for scoring Video Games. 2007 promises to be an exciting year in game music. No longer will composers, audio design managers, developers and publishers have to wait for the AFM to tell them what their project will cost and what strings will be attached. One call to a contractor of choice and your audio team has the finest musicians, orchestrators ,engineers, studios and infrastructure that Hollywood has to offer ready to make your project sound like a blockbuster. The PMG is focused on a new approach that is simple and fast. The Agreement was developed specifically for the video game industry. Because of the enormous success of major game company products like Halo, Planetside and Everquest, live performances of stand alone game music compositions are becoming a requirement for any “mega-hit” game that wants to continue user interest month after month. Scoring in Hollywood guaranties your project will sound better and be completed faster than anywhere else. Developers can email if you have any questions about the PMG standards.

The "Planetside" soundtrack was re-mastered for the newest levels of game play with the dual core systems. Now, many of the multi-player online Planetside game music mp3s can be downloaded from the official game website. 2007 has gotten underway with a series of new “movie underscore” tracks, soon to be available online for independent film producers.......... Attendees for the Game Developers Conference can open the “Listen” section of the website to hear the new game action music tracks. -Don Ferrone
