It certainly looks more like the new MK1300 track from Vekoma than any Maurer coaster. But couldn't it just be a new track design from Gerstlauer?

I've finished a theme, I hope you like it. I kind of used tree / forest theming and created a theme that has a kind of grotesque 'fantasy' feel to it, I hope it fits the ride. Here's the link.

Sure, no problem. Would it be okay if I used my new percussion software for this? It's basically 'epic trailer music' type of drums.

It would be nice if I could get a response from SoCalCoasters! It took me a lot of free time to compose that theme, It'd be a shame if it's left unused. Other than that, I've bought some new software (percussion). Everything percussion related (Epic Orchestral / Jungle themes etc.) will sound a lot better from now on. I'll see if I can make some short pieces. And I'm still waiting for new requests!

I'm pretty sure the Flying Island is a Vekoma and not an Intamin, but other than that great TR. This park looks awesome, the theming reminds me of Toverland. They could really use another big attraction though, maybe an Intamin Mega-Lite?

Thanks, I think it's not that bad either, but it was something I composed in only 10 or 15 minutes without much attention to details. The theme for SoCalCoasters is finished by the way! Link I can take some new requests now, so if anyone wants some music for their RCT park or ride, let me know!

Alright, I'm working on the final touches of SoCalCoaster's theme and I made a piece for my own RCT park. It's a small piece, it didn't take a lot of work, but if someone is interested in the theme, you can use it for your own park if you'd like. I'm a horrible RCT player and I never finish anything. I'll also start making some 'generic' music, like Oriental, Space etc. type themes that can be used by anyone, to add to the existing list of RCT 2 & 3 pieces. I might not be able to reach the same quality, but I'll try to fill in some missing gaps. Oh and totally off topic: I visited Toverland yesterday and count me in as a coaster 'lover'. I thought Troy was absolutely amazing with the laterals and ejector air, never experienced anything like it (with the exception of Goliath in Walibi World, but that was a lot of years ago). Boosterbike was pretty cool too, really good family ride with some nice floater air. The junior coaster, however, was pretty uncomfortable. My back still hurts.

I've finished work on the Superman Theme. Link. It was an interesting project, I've never composed anything like it before. I will now start working on the themes for gci2011.

Thank you, it's great that you like it, It's been a lot of work, but worth it. Composing POV music is a lot of fun, because it forces me to be more creative. Here's a 'rough' version of the music finished: Link Now I'm going to work on the details, add in a bit of variation (especially 1:11 - 1:25) and sync it to the ride. I thought it would be good idea to add some tension to the backwards part, after you go through the station, but if that's not what you have in mind than I can change it to be more like the rest of the theme. I've also started work on the Superman Theme for sfgamguy. Link

If you need some music, I'd be happy to compose it for you. I'm quite busy working on the requests I have at the moment, so it's no problem at all that you don't have anything yet. And here's an update on the music for SoCalCoasters: Link After that, (when the train goes backwards through the station) it'll change a bit. The part that's already finished will also be changed a bit (mostly to sync it better to the ride).

Yes I noticed you entered the contest, congratulations on winning it. I love the design and hope to be able to create equally good music for it!

I've got a longer version with a (very short) intro. I've get very interesting (and complex) things in mind for the lifthill. Link Will the coaster be in a park, or is it a 'stand-alone' coaster. If it's in a RCT 3 park, I'd love to compose additional queue music.

That's great to hear! If you need some more music, don't hold back. I'd be happy to compose more pieces. Although not related to RCT, I've uploaded a new piece to my youtube channel ( ). Let me know what you think and leave a comment! (preferably on youtube since I'd like to keep this topic for requests only).

I'm currently working on SoCalCoasters's request, which is taking up most of the time I can / am willing to invest in this, so all other requests will be delayed a couple of days. Don't worry, I will compose everything, it's just that I want to compose something good for everyone, and not something that's just 'ok'. I hope you guys understand.

Good to hear that it fits in the park. I've made a longer version, let me know what you think. It's a bit experimental and I can always make something different. Here's a link.

I've enabled downloading, but wouldn't a longer piece be better? I was thinking maybe two or two and half minutes?

Alright, I've made a sketch for you. Might this be suitable for the entrance area? Or does it need to be more cheerful? Thank you, I had a great time composing that theme, even though it was quite difficult. Let me know if you need something else for your park! Thanks for the kind words. They are both two pieces that took me a lot of work and time to compose. I'm happy to see that you like them!

Alright, I have finished the theme for tiger01. It took more time than I initially had planned, due to my processor not being able to handle the piece (I'd loaded too many instruments). It basically means I had to finish about 2 minutes of music without being able to hear what it's like until I'd rendered it. Here's the download link. I hope you like it! Some random facts: - Other than an Orchestra and a Choir, it has synthesizers, a mandolin and a koto (japanese harp) in it - It has 25 different instruments (The most I've ever used if I remember correctly) - Took me about 7 hours to compose. Thank you for the request, I would never have made such a crazy piece without it. As for all the other requests, I've started work on most of them and I expect to finish them in a couple of days.

Yes, I can imagine that people would need oriental style music, I'll see if can compose a couple of oriental style pieces. Luckily, I have the perfect software for it. I sent you a PM, thanks for taking it into consideration. Thanks for the message, I've sent you a reply. Alright, that's definitely something new for me, really interesting request. I'll see if can compose something like that. And here's another update on the Aquatrax theme for tiger01. I've also started work on the music for SoCalCoasters and Popcorn54.

Interesting request, never composed anything like it before. Could you give me an example of Traditional American music? I'm European so I'm not really familiar with it unfortunately.

Yes, I'm working towards three minutes. I'm posting these small updates to let you know how it's shaping up.

I've got a longer version, it's at 1:21 now. It's shaping up a bit like trailer music, I hope it's still suited as rollercoaster music. Here's a link Sounds greats, thanks for video. I can handle a lot of requests if people are willing to accept that it might take some time before I finish the music. I can't finish everything within a day of course. As for your requests, both sound interesting. You can send me details via PM. I'd rather only take requests regarding RCT creations, but I can do the youtube intro.

Alright, that's quite long but a nice challenge for me. Should it be non-stop action music? Or can the theme switch between action and more 'adventurous' type of music, like this? Thanks for the pm, I'll start working on it immediately. No problem, how long should the theme be? I'm not familiar with No Limits, so I wouldn't know. I was thinking of youtube videos with a POV of the coaster or something like that. If it's not possible to add music, it should be added in a newer version!

Alright, sounds like a good coaster. Will two / three minutes be long enough? Great, sounds like an interesting (and difficult) project for me, I like it. I'd like to see a POV or maybe even the ride itself? (I only own the regular RCT 3, not the expansions though). What kind of style would you like? Orchestral?

I don't use a notation tool unless it's for live instruments (like the short piece I uploaded to my youtube channel yesterday). I compose everything in FL Studio. I then load plugins for the sounds, like East West Symphonic Orchestra for example (which was actually used for the Joris & de Draak theme at the Efteling). Good Suggestion, I will see if I can add some choir sounds too it. Will it be synchronized with the ride, because then I will need to see the ride to be able to compose something that will suit.
