Hitman: Absolution Soundtrack

NxSG · 02-01-2012, 08:13 AM

Hello Hitman series fans,

my name is Alexander Linhart better known as NxSG (music composer). To shorten the time till the H:A realease I'm composing an unofficial soundtrack for "Hitman: Absolution". You all are big Hitman fans (like me) and that's why I would like to know your opinion about my score:

Info: http://www.youtube.com/user/NxSGMusic

Soundtrack:

NxSG - Hitman: Absolution Soundtrack (Wake Up)

NxSG - Hitman: Absolution Soundtrack (Main Menu)

NxSG - Hitman: Absolution Soundtrack (Preview)

NxSG - Hitman: Absolution Soundtrack (Mission In Japan)

I plan to compose about 12 tracks and will keep this thread up-to-date

.

Hope you'll like it! Every kind of feedback and/or discussion is welcome and appreciated.

Enjoy the sound,

a-chill

Im sorry, but this is not the Hitman I know. Its very well made and is currently set on repeat - FOR EVER - but its not Hitman.

NxSG · 02-27-2012, 12:57 PM

@Banzure: wow, thank you very much for such a kind criticism! You are not the first person, who says it's not the original Hitman and you are right.
Well, I'm composing just an alternative soundtrack for it - I don't want to copy the original score. But don't worry, I plan to compose the next tracks darker and smoother... Hope you will like them.

Nice effort. Keep it up.

Subscribed to your youtube channel. I hope all that work opens doors for you.

^^ This preview track of yours, starting from about that 10 second mark to the end, definitely made me think of Hitman. Excellent.

@erwem576: thank you! I hope it too - all my work on YouTube is just a small demonstration of what I can do... I'm giving my best - thanks a bunch!

I was sending some download links to my work around my subscribers and couldn't send you a copy (YouTube says, that you blocked all incoming messages from people, who aren't in your contacts). Add me as a friend or change your settings, so I can send you those

I like it. Although I hope you can fit Ave Maria in there somewhere. It fit Blood Money very well as well as the movie. Maybe just a short verse of it or as the end credits track?

@erwem576: sent

!

@Iron-Mike: thanks a lot! I don't use seomeone else' work, hope you can understand it

.

Btw. here is the new track I hope you will like:

NxSG - Hitman: Absolution Soundtrack (Wake Up)

Enjoy it!

Wish you a nice and stressless weekend,

I didn't realize Jesper Kyd wasn't signed up on Hitman: Absolution. His soundtrack literally made the Hitman series.

Alexander, you have very large shoes to fill! From the sample tracks you've posted, they all seem very electronica-inspired, like Hitman: Contracts. I'm not sure if I like some of the electric-guitar riffs in some of the songs, but the ambient ones seem nice.

I hope the entire H:A won't be like this, not because anything is wrong with your style, but Hitman was always quite relied on orchestral and choral pieces (Hitman 2 and Blood Money). I think we're all expecting a good mix of orchestral/choral epics with ambient electronica songs.

NxSG · 03-25-2012, 09:54 AM

@lobski: don't worry, this is only my alternative score. I don't think that the original one would be like that

! Yes, you are right - it's not the Hitman we know. I read all constructive criticism and will improve the upcoming tracks!

Thank you very much!
