Create
old-school gaming soundtracks on iOS and Android as eJay Pure unveils chiptune
samples
Independent developers and wannabe videogame musicians
will be able to quickly and easily create authentic chiptune tunes when eJay
Pure hits iOS and Android later this year – with your help. The 1,000 strong sample pack will mark the
first time the eJay series has catered for this booming genre – and illustrates
the breadth that Wired Productions is bringing to the core eJay experience.
To celebrate this brilliant first, Wired Productions has
released a selection of samples for everyone to download for free. Just head to
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wiredproductions/ejay-pure
and
hit the “updates” tab to find them.
eJay Pure is a touch-screen reworking of the pioneering PC
music-making software, which allows users to quickly and easily create original
music tracks from a bank of beat- and pitch-matched samples. By manipulated
blocks of music across multiple tracks, a vast array of brilliant, original
music can be created.
A visual demonstration of how eJay Pure will work can be

Dr Richard Wilson, CEO, TIGA says,
“It is great to see a fun
product that has actual benefits for the development community. From entry
level sound design to sound prototyping, eJay Pure has great all-round
potential”.
“The beauty of any
composition made within eJay Pure is that it will be 100% royalty free – which
will help any small or medium sized developer,” continues Leo Zullo.
eJay Pure is currently running a Kickstarter campaign, with
rewards varying from 1,000 samples for a pound, right up to having your song
featured as the opening track in the game. For more information and to show

About eJay:
eJay http://www.ejay.com/uk/ was the
brainchild of two visionaries, Helmut Schmitz and Bernhard Throll. They met in
1994 by chance and began talking about how they could bring music making to the
masses. eJay was born and went on to become a music production power house with
different genre versions, magazines, Carl Cox and other artists involved, and a
website that was ahead of its time, with over 1 million registered users. eJay
was taken over by a video game publisher
which later fell into administration and eJay was lost. The eJay creators
Helmut and Bernhard secured the legacy of eJay by acquiring the rights in 2010,
and now is preparing for the next chapter.
