[casual_games] Cheap sound effects

[Elliot Curtis]

We used somebody external to produce our music for Merry go Round Dreams and
it was relatively inexpensive and the results were incredible. An absolute
joy to work with as well. He is producing the music for a couple of new
projects for us too.

I'll be happy to pass on his details to anyone who's interested..

I'm sure someone will mention this as well; if you
have a small budget for sound, the best option isn't
to hire someone, but to outsource it to a professional
sound studio. 

It actually works out pretty okay cost-wise, and you
can get really amazing quality, with little management
overhead. 

We use Somatone [www.somatone.com] ourselves (I think
Kane is lurking somewhere on the mailing list), and
they've been an absolute joy to work with. They've
also done a lot of the sounds for Playfirst, BFG and
Popcap, so you know you're in good hands!
