STBB #859 - Silent Hill
Posted: Fri Aug 18, 2023 3:00 pm
As mentioned in the other thread, really appreciate the votes - it really means a lot to be part of this community.

Recently I went down a rabbit hole on YouTube (which I’m sure we all do occasionaly!) and found myself on a video about the music of the Silent Hill series and how the original games were scored using a lot of sample compilation CD’s from the 90’s.
The video I watched was this one:
This forum is cited at the end of the video and is where the samples I’ve provided have come from: https://silenthillforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=16347
I feel that there is enough content in the samples to say that no external samples, drums or instrumentation is allowed - however I won’t make this a hard rule as I wouldn’t want to stifle creativity but try and keep within the samples provided if you can.
Acapellas and raps are allowed as I know a lot of the community are great at this and banning them would stop some great bars and verses from being shared.
Samples are here: https://we.tl/t-YeA1e6ELvh or https://we.tl/t-y0bJia03TL as a zip
To Summarise:
Rules:
- Try to keep it provided samples only (no external live / vst instrumentation etc)
- Acapellas / Raps allowed
The Fine Print:
