Looking for who said what in the sound world? Well there is no better place to find every audio related press release than 3DsoundSurge.!

Music4Games.Net sets the trend for raising the profile of audio in interactive games.

"In the past year or so that M4G has been running we have gained momentum and with the continued support of the industry we will further raise the credibility and awareness of music for games," Says editor and founder Greg O’Connor-Read.

M4G is now recognised as the leading online resource for game music industry news and the premier destination on the web where you'll get the music spin on the latest games releases and products. M4G offers audio professionals a venue to find out about what their peers are up to in the world of game audio as well as a reliable contact base and open network to build business relationships.

One such case lies behind the recent announcement that Nimrod Productions are joining CouchLife’s network of production studios, a partnership initiated by networking opportunities inherent with the M4G Directory which profiles companies and individuals investing in or contributing to the games industry.

"M4G is a fantastic resource for all involved in audio in the games industry", Says Sergio Pimentel, Creative Director of CouchLife, one of the UK game industry's leading music consultants. "At last there is a dedicated news site celebrating the amazing work being done in this area. The directory has been particularly helpful in allowing us to meet and discuss issues with likeminded professionals".

Nimrod Productions were equally quick to highlight M4G as the source of contact and inspiration for their recent affiliation. "We have found M4G to be a really cool resource that lets us keep tabs on all aspects of the industry. M4G has introduced us to other creative forces in the games world that we would not normally have been aware of, including CouchLife. Long may it continue," Said Marc, Nimrod Productions Director.

M4G was also recently commended for its Directory in Aaron Marks' "The Complete Guide to Game Audio" (CMP Books).

"M4G is the most current and informative resource on game audio, anywhere! Whenever you need to know what is going on in the world of game audio, Music4Games is the only place to go!" Says Aaron Marks, On Your Mark Music Productions Director & Author of "The Complete Guide to Game Audio" (CMP Books, 2001)

Developed to become a who's who of the game music sector, the M4G Directory provides games companies looking to source music out-of-house with a unique source of information and access to (finding out who is the first point of contact at specific companies, how to approach each company, and how they operate, etc) music and audio services tailored to their needs.

"We are pleased that so many* are finding M4G an invaluable destination for music fun and research in the field of interactive entertainment and invite more game companies to take a tour for themselves to see who’s out there doing what. We guarantee you will learn to appreciate the value of great game audio!" Says Greg O’Connor-Read.

By focusing on music services and audio content providers for interactive games, M4G provides a unique editorial platform for profiling established artists, musicians, composers and sound designers to promote their contributions and market their services to the games industry and to bring attention to quality audio and music for games.

Says Free Radical Design in-house composer Graeme Norgate, (Music & Sound, TimeSplitters 1 & 2), "Music4Games is a great site, a fine source of info for people in the industry or just interested in game music in general".
