Work-related

I'm making a game/film/thing and need music...
Awesome! Please use the contact page to send me details about you project and we'll take it from there!

​How long does it take you to produce a full-length OST?
It depends. Anywhere between 2-6 months. Sometimes even longer, probably not sooner.

​And how much will it cost me?
I can't answer that before I know a thing or two about the project. Send me some info and I'll give you an estimate.

I'm making a game/film/thing and I need music but I don't have any money...
Neither do I.
​
But we can share profit...
I'm happy to share some of your profits, I just won't write your music for free.

What if I paid you in goods and services?
Sure. I'll take a serving of good money on delivery.

Permissions

Can I upload your music/album on YouTube?
No. (I've already done it myself.)
UPDATE: Effective immediately, I will report anyone who uploads my music without asking for permission, without warning. Well, except this warning right here.

​Can I use you music in a monetized/commercial video?
No. The only exceptions are, the video being:

• A review of the music
• A review of the media the music is from
• A Let's Play of the game the music is from​​

​​Can I use you music in a non-monetized/non-commercial video?
​Yes, as long as you provide proper credit and a link to my bandcamp.

​I'm making a PWYW game. Can I use your music in it?
No.
​But, my game is about ending world hunger...
No.
What if I shared it completely for free?
No.
How about a demo?
No.

I'm working on a student project and I'd love to use one of your pieces in it.
Feel free, as long as you only share it with your class & teacher and is not monetized or sold.

​Can I live-stream your music?
Yes, as long as it's a) part of the game you're playing, or b) used as background music AND you provide proper on-screen credit.

​Can I upload a remix/cover of your music?
Yes please! But do keep in mind:

• You cannot monetize or sell it under any circumstances—no exceptions.
• You need to credit me as the original composer.
• Be creative! And drop me a link on twitter while you're at it ;)

​Can I play your music with my band or in my DJ set?
Fuck yeah!

Misc.

How do you pronounce your last name?
Christodoulou. How do you pronounce it?

I want to be a game composer too! Any suggestions?
Yes! Study music, read, play games, read, study music, get a twitter account, study music, read, take long walks, study music and read.

I was hoping for a more hands-on approach...
​Study music and read.

​What kind of tools do you use to compose?
I'm using a thing called Mind, running on a thing called Brain.

That's cute. I meant, what kind of software do you use?
Windows 10

Right... What software do you use to write music?
There is no software that writes music.

Ok, smart-ass, you know what I mean! Are you going to answer me or not?
I already did

Mother&@#$€r! Ok, I'm going to ask one last time: WHAT DAW AND WHAT PLUGINS ARE YOU USING TO PRODUCE MUSIC?
Look, if you're going to be rude about it I don't think I want to continue this conversation. Good day.
