#5. Working at Pendulo (II): Music
Posted by pendulo-studios on July 23, 2012, 11 a.m.
What does it take to make a good song?
Some say that it just takes a bad liver or a broken heart.
But our musician JuanMi has his own theory...
Do you want to collaborate with JuanMi creating Day One's original soundtrack?
And don't be scared, not all the music of that game is so hardcore. To show you the variety of Yesterday's soundtrack, here is another theme.
Help us spread the word!
Let's crowdcreate!

Jajajaja, me mola el estilo Metal que tiene esa canción que comentas en el vídeo y me encanta la música de los juegos de Pendulo (la del Hollywood Monsters 2, por ejemplo). Considero que que siempre ha estado a la altura del resto de contenidos de vuestros productos y ha sido realmente variada a lo largo de los diferentes títulos.
PD:Yo toco la batería y me pongo a tu entera disposición si es necesario para grabar pistas, en caso de que lo creas oportuno ;).
Hala!!!
Jejejeje
Mola un montonazo!!!! xDD
La canción de Day One que poneis por aquí abajo es súper bonita!!! ^^
--Os deseo mucha suerte con el juego!! :)
Juanmi, eres un crack! Montamos una banda? :P
La música de JuanMi es francamente buena. Dentro de poco os actualizaremos con una pequeña selección de canciones de diferentes títulos para que escuchéis su calidad.
Juanmi's music is really fantastic.Soon, we'll be updating a brief selection of music from our games for you guys to enjoy.
@jaantunez ¡Vamos a montar una banda! ya tenemos batería: @-gizmo- Cuento con vosotros para la banda sonora de Day One!!!
Muchas gracias @mariaazartash Ese tema que dices es un reducto de paz dentro de una tormentosa BSO. Me alegro mucho de que te guste!
English!!!
(@jaantunez says we should form a new band and @-gizmo- seems to be great on drums, also @mariaazartash loved I SHOULD SAY NO)
@jaantunez A new band will be born!!! We already have the drums guy @-gizmo- I'm counting on you two for the soundtrack of Day One!
Thanks so much @mariaazartash, that song is a peaceful shelter on a stormy soundtrack. I'm really happy you liked it!

@jmmartinmunoz
Perfecto entonces, muy agradecido de poder formar parte de esta experiencia y ser partícipe en todo lo que pueda.
Sólo espero que este proyecto llegue a buen puerto y que yo esté a la altura de las circunstancias musicalmente hablando :P.

Perfect, I am so glad for this oportunity and i will try to help in anything i can.
I just hope this project comes to fruition and I have the skills on drums that you need : P.
Tengo un grupo que se llama Máximo No Canta, mi idea cuando abráis la zona VIP es pasaros toooda nuestra música para que la metáis donde queráis (Una radio encendida, un anuncio en la televisión de la habitación que registramos, el tema principal del juego... vale eso último seguro que no) ¡De esta forma ganamos todos, ahorrándole a JuanMi el curro y dándonos bombo!
Mientras, podéis pasaros por www.maximonocanta.com y ver qué tal, aunque dentro de "poco" sacaremos más material y también os lo cederemos.
¡No os toméis esto como publi!
Siempre me ha resultado muy ridículo pensar en cómo se graban este tipo de cosas, o los gritos típicos de dolor de los juegos de acción. Desde aquel grito de Lara Croft en el primer Tomb Raider cuando caía al vacío hasta los esfuerzos de un personaje escalando una pared,como en Uncharted. Claro, ¡que hay detrás alguien pegando gritos! jajaja
Esto, por si interesa el tema del doblaje, están muy bien los extras de las aventuras gráficas de Wadjet Eye Games. En The Shivah o Blackwell Unbound hay un puñado de tomas falsas o conversaciones con los dobladores. De hecho en el caso de Unbound hay, conté, 66 tomas falsas
Estaría bien de cara a juegos futuros de Péndulo extras de este tipo. Imagino que los tendréis jugados y sabéis de lo que hablo.
