Benjamin Gear
Composer
I pride myself on composing highly expressive music with unconventional choices.
Main inspiration for video game composition come from:
- Yasunori Mitsuda: Xenogears, Chrono Cross, and Chrono Trigger
- Kenichi Tsuchiya: Shin Megami Tensei III, IV, and V
- The Mega Man X Soundtrack (several composers)
- Nobuo Uematsu: Especially Final Fantasy IV and VI
- Mick Gordon: DOOM (2016), Prey (2017), and Killer Instinct (2013)
- Yoko Shiomura: Many works for Capcom and Square
- Takashi Tateishi: Mega Man 2
- Koji Kondo: The Legend of Zelda series
Original Soundtracks
I believe every creative endeavor should have a sound all its own.
I will compose a custom soundtrack for your video game, film, trailer, or other project.
Soundtrack rates per minute of complete music:
- "Indie" projects (overall budget under $100,000): $100 / minute
- Higher budget projects: $500 / minute
Contact me about composing for your project!
Customized Theme Songs
I provide a custom theme song at a flat rate.
This is a great choice for a video series, podcast, live event, or pro wrestler entrance music.
For $200 you will receive a personalized theme song in the following variations:
- Main Theme: This song will run between one and three minutes.
- Voice-Over Version: A softer version meant loop under a voice.
Engineered to not interfere with clarity of speech. - Intro Sting: A short introductory version cut to the desired length.
All versions are edited to transition easily to another.
Additional variations (such as rearrangements for different moods) will cost an additional $75 each.
