Here's the premise:
Your spaceship has crashed on a planet decimated by cataclysms and populated by strange alien species. It's a dangerous, scenic, wacky, and incongruous world that is both a dump and tourist destination. You need to scour the land for the missing parts of your ship, or be stuck there forever.
The game is primarily about exploration, but with an extremely simple battle and equipment system.
The planet consists of two huge maps (the surface and underground) with no battle scenes and few doors. Therefore, I need two lengthy pieces of music (one for each map), since they will run interrupted for long periods of time.
These should be funky, groovy, relaxing, and really weird. Also, since the player will be listening to them for extended periods of time, they should contain diverse sections and be somewhat long (ideally 5 to 7 minutes).
I will also need 2 short pieces for the title and ending screens.
If you are interested in writing music for this game, Send me a PM! I can send you a copy of the game file so you can have a look. Then make me a 30 second sketch of what you think sounds good. If it will work, then you can expand that into the long piece for the surface map.
Here are some pieces of music I think capture the right mood. Your music probably shouldn't sound anything like these, but listening to them might put you in the right zone. However, as important as being groovy is, being weird is even more important. If you want to use all samples of animal sounds, I'm okay with that. Go crazy! Let's work together!

Here are some screen shots. These are all from the surface map.
