Hi, I get a lot of enquiries through my site, both on how to get started and if I have work.

I started a bit of a guide for game audio. Its fairly basic, but may have some relevant information for some.

Thanks Scott for sharing this - great info! I am going to put it as a separate sticky thread, along with Ned's guide, so others don't miss it here. It's really in the spirit of "musicians helping musicians" for you both to take the time to put together guides for those who are just getting started. 0oD

Just came across this excellent site which covers all aspects of the music business with articles and video interviews (Artist House Music - Your Guide to a Life in Music):

I think it's time for the stickies to start being purged. Clicked on Scott's link. Now it's a link to a site called freecartoonporn. Though it's pretty funny seeing a still of Ariel servicing the guy from the movie...whatever his name is.

As a newcomer to the forum, I've been clicking on the stickies, and some that have links in them have dead links. Just thought I'd put that out there.
 
I created a guide for developers new to working with composers to help them learn good practices for working with a composer and figuring out what they want... if any of you run into a client you can't stand because they are impossible to satisfy or do that annoying thing where they link you to some Two Steps From Hell song and go "copy this plz!", showing this to them might not hurt.
