I'm sure it would sound great on the FOI soundfont.. where do I get it?
This is just a concept though.

Ack! Sorry, Rage, and thanks for bringing this submission back to attention. I meant to comment on it when I listened to it the first time, but I didn't want to reply without being able to provide you with that Soundfont. Apparently we don't have it up anywhere ... I'll ask Temp and see what I can do about making it available again.

Anyway, as for the music. Nice stuff! Though for Kydran, and for a character theme in general, I think it's a little bit ambient. The musical idea is fine, but maybe you might want to take the theme you have here and see what it sounds like double-time or something. If not, this is an excellent start on some event music, maybe for breaking out of the Labs, or doing something sneaky and dangerous. Technically, your instrumentation and dynamics are very well-done... the fading strings can be hard to pull off well in MIDI.

EDIT: Temp just got that soundfont bank up. Find it here.

Horay! Finally I've found the ever elusive FOI font. Thanks, Temp! This should be very useful.

Oh, I should probably comment on the music, too. Very moody and I agree with Dev here in that it would definately be suited as event music. Personally, I thought the melody was unpredicatble whilst still flowed quite well, which was great (unlike mine where the melodies are quite predictable :P).

Oh and Dev, I remember u mentioned once that there was a list somewhere of the music needed for the game. U know where that is coz i can't find it anywhere...?? Thanks!
