In Response To: Is it bad if Halo changed my life? (Dustbunny27) Halo came out, November 2001. Got the Xbox and Halo for Xmas 2001. It was a launch box that our family's tennant got on November 15th, but he held onto it for Xmas. I got sucked into it. Music was the biggest thing that I loved about Halo. Then the story line. That's why I am such a huge fan of Marty O'Donnell. He sold the game Halo to me. He made it strike home for me. Anyways, freshman year at highschool sucked for me. I didn't listen to music. I was a huge Halo Fanfiction addict. Eventually I explored the movies and miscelaneous sections of HBO, and found Justin R. Durban's work. It was featured in Blackstar's Halo Movie Trailer(s). Justin R. Durban's work struck home in me. I started getting more and more into film and game music. Hans Zimmer, James Horner, modern score-writers like them were who I was listening to, all along as I was a classical & romantic pianist. But going back to "Edgen"'s work, I joined up on his website's forum, got to know the other musicians striking out a career in music. Jonathan of EastofBeautiful, his acoustic guitar rock.
All of this from All Media Studios. Why I have the AMS tag in front of my name. And I imagine if I never did listen to that song by Edgen. If I didn't become his HBO announcer for the latest Halo related music. And because of a worldly array of music I started getting, I've been open to everything, musically. I compose music. I play world music. I have liking to everything, minus Country and Disco. Country because I'm living in the South right now. As for people, I wouldn't have as many friends on my Facebook and Myspace that are HBOers. Less people from around the US and world. No Xbox Live. Personally, if I didn't find that song up on the front page and later in the misc section, I probably would have been way different, musically. |
