Hello,

I am looking for a music composer for my project Legend of Kror. It is a game that revolves around the life of Kror of Sur a legendary Afghan figure that existed in 8th century Central Asia. The story of the game follows a turbulent time-period in the region's history during the expansion of the Umayyad Caliphate into Central Asia. The indigenous ethnic groups of the region resisted against oppression and slavery. The ethnic groups involved in the resistance were the Afghans (Pashtuns), Sogds (Tajiks) and the Turgesh (Turkic people who now inhabit modern-day Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan).

The Music composer MUST BE ABLE TO PLAY THE RABAB/RUBAB (Central Asian stringed instrument) as it is a central instrument in Afghan music culture. In addition to that composers who are able to play one or more of the following instruments or musical styles will be preferred:

  1. Choor

  2. Dayra

  3. Dombra

  4. Dutar

  5. Garmon

  6. Ghijak

  7. Jaw Harp

  8. Komuz

  9. Kyl kyyak

  10. Rawap

  11. Sato

  12. Sybyzgy

  13. Tanbur

  14. Tar

Additional Non-Central Asian instruments can be incorporated into the musical pieces but the central piece must always be either the Rubab or any other instrument listed.

Currently, at this stage of the project the composer will be asked to compose music for the character drawing time-lapse videos. As we endeavor to garner a social media presence and open up the project for crowdfunding.

If you require some additional information as to the setting or the history let me know I will be sure to add it as an edit in the post.

Manana!
