Won the Survarium Music Contest

Great news - at least for me, ha! By some miracle I actually won the Survarium Music Contest, which I've entered recently by submitting several tracks under my "Ray Kosmick" moniker.

The Survarium Music Contest was opened by Vostok Games, calling on the game community to produce music for the upcoming massive multiplayer shooter Survarium (which is currently in beta and already looks and plays great, by the way, you should check it out). The competition was in two categories: covers of the game's main theme, composed by Dargalon (first prize); and new original tracks for the game (multiple second prizes). The winners were selected by the developer and will be included in the game soundtrack.

After a few months and 9 entries (one of them a collaboration with the Slovak producer and composer Alyctro), I managed to win the first prize for my cover of the main theme (a nice pair of Sennheiser HD 380 Pro headphones which actually came in the nick of time, because I actually need them :D)... AND one of the second prizes, as one of my original contributions (Nightfall 2) is going to be included into the game soundtrack as well, so I'm also getting a load of in-game currency and a special decal! Too bad I can't shoot for shit and everybody manages to kill me on sight :)

So, without further ado, here are the winning tracks:

And a playlist of all the entries:



So now I'm off to be shot in the game's beta a few more times...
