The first listeners flocked to Kesselbrink an hour before the performance began to settle down on blankets, cushions or camping chairs to get hold of the best spots. The atmosphere couldn’t have been better – people relaxing in the setting sun and listening to the music.

Even if the Bielefelder Philharmonic Orchestra still pursues its art of music-making in an analog way, their innovative programme proves that they are still operating at the pulse of time. It was an honor for us to be part of this event.

Based on the shared belief that music should be seen by the games industry as a valuable asset rather than a cost centre, the companies will transform in-game music and audio as well as introduce new business models to out-of-game music.

Covering all aspects of the game music industry value chain, the partnership can now offer music creation, distribution, publishing and revenue generation models to suit any game developer across all platforms. Tapping into management with unrivalled expertise in this area, partners will be able to see the true value of what music can bring to the future success of their game.

The first results of this partnership is the launch of www.flipmusic.net which showcases the best in-game music from the catalogues of both companies. In-game music has a value outside of the game and the platform allows the media and entertainment industries to be able to screen tracks available for license or sync in their future projects.

Pierre Langer, Founder & MD of Dynamedion, says “We have been successfully doing media licensing deals with our own music from games for nearly two decades now, however we never had the resources, capacities and experience to really focus on this music management and music publishing service. With Simon and Flip Entertainment we finally have found the ideal partner to push game music to the next level, making it what it is: a valuable asset by itself, bringing additional revenue, attention and cross-marketing to all involved parties.”

Simon Usiskin / FLIP ENTERTAINMENT

Simon Usiskin, Founder & MD of Flip Entertainment, says “I am so excited about the partnership with Dynamedion. It has been something we have been working on and discussing for some time and in Pierre and his team we have found perfect partners who share our passion and belief. The music and games industries have a huge opportunity to work much closer and together with Dynamedion, we will be able to bridge the gap and show how extra value and revenue can be created.”

Over the past 18 years Dynamedion, together with its associated labels BOOM Library and Sonuscore, has become the European leader in music composition, sound design, source sound recordings, live orchestra production and audio integration services for international game audio. With over 2,000 released game, TV series, trailers, films and movies, Dynamedion stands for unsurpassed quality and integrity.

Flip Entertainment was created earlier this year by three entertainment industry executives with a combined experience of 80 years across TV, music and games in creating, publishing and licensing content. As a music publisher for the games industry, the company have all the insights and knowledge required to help game developers exploit the music IP assets they own as well as work strategically with the games industry to help them get the most out of music in their future game releases.

Executives from both companies will be attending Gamescom and Devcom where Simon Usiskin will be giving a presentation: “Music and Games – living together in sweet harmony… Well they should be!”

Writing music for this imaginative story was a very special experience. Why? Read on as our Lead Composer Tilman Sillescu reveals some insights:

“After the many action-packed adventure movies that we have provided with music for the production company Dreamtool in the past, it was a completely new challenge to compose music for our first children’s film for the big screen. It was really great to create the film music for this beautiful setting at Paradisia Zoo together with the brilliant Riad Abdel-Nabi: a little bit of Hollywood adventure, some ethnic-exotic flavours like African flutes and Kalimbas, plus the great film songs of Riad, sung by Faye Montana, everything went perfectly together. With our Dynamedion Composerteam (Matthias Wolf, Christian Wirtz, Benny Oschmann and Steffen Brinkmann) we worked flat out for 5 months and finally recorded the music with a large full-scale symphonic orchestra. We have been working together successfully with Dreamtool for many years – it was also a new and super exciting experience to work together with director Joachim Massanek. I like to remember the 2-day spotting session with Joachim and Felix Zackor and Sybille Illner from Dreamtool in Berlin. Actually, only half a day was scheduled for the whole meeting, but late in the evening we were still not through – so I was spontaneously booked a hotel room and we made full use of the next day. In the end, we spent a good 14 hours watching the film, stopped over and over again and considered in detail how we wanted to shape the music for each individual scene. It was an intensive and exciting time for all of us and of course a great thing to experience the final result and the fascinated faces of the young spectators at the premiere.”
