Default Project VGM: Soundtrack for a fictional RPG (composers needed!)

Hopefully I can catch some composers who hang around here... please see the following thread at OCR for more info:

I look forward to working with you!

So, are you a composer looking for some help or is this a game you're making and you just need music altogether?

It's a composer project: we're writing music for a non-existent RPG.

Why? Is it non-existent because you're not sure how you want the RPG to be? Or is it supposed to be an RPG in another project?

@PSIRockin: Think of it as another Merregnon or Tindharia.

@Jormungand: Or am I misunderstanding something here?

In other words, it's a concept album.

Nope, it's just made up for composers. There was never going to be a real game.

I don't know what those are, sorry!

Basically. However, it's written like an actual RPG soundtrack. Check out the tracklist for what I mean: battle themes, town themes, etc. With an actual story!

Think of it as a free RPG soundtrack when it's done.

Really?! Woah, that surprises me.

Here's Tindharia:

Perhaps looping is what makes something sound like VGM most, rather than having a fantasy concept.

Yes LiquidAcid and Dario, similar to those ideas.

And Cedille, many of the tracks on this project will be looped with fadeout to give the proper "OST" impression.
