8Dio 2013 Stand Out Contest Submission: "Hall of Fame" by "Mark van Mechelen"

19 years ago I played my first round of Killer Instinct in a dark, smokey pub in Capella, a small town in central Queensland, Australia.  This amazing game, and the amazing music by Robin Beanland & Graeme Norgate, inspired me into a career of music for video games.

This Friday, the 22nd of November, we're unleashing the new Killer Instinct into the world.  I am privileged to have been able to play in this musical universe and I hope you, the fan, enjoys the blood, sweat and tears that we've poured into this thing.

Enjoy this.  We made it for you.

Killer Instinct (2013) - Music Teaser Suite #2

OK so this one is bit of an oldie from 2010.. But if you haven't heard it it's new to you.

I'd just gotten Symphobia, Tonehammer's (now 8DIO) Epic Dhol and Bamboo sample libraries and was taking them for a spin. I also may have had just seen Avatar at the time.

There's more to the song, but I never got around to finishing it... bummer!
