George Oldziey Revamping Online Presence
Production of the Wing Commander series has been blessed with a few wonderful musicians over the years. Even better, with all the work they do in the game, movie and entertainment industries, they consistently have a special place in their heart for Wing Commander fans. Wing Commander 3, 4 & Prophecy composer George Oldziey's official site is currently being upgraded and overhauled, and the new layout will feature a prominent Wing Commander section. There is already a nice biography online and musical samples from Wing Commanders 3 & 4 and some of his other projects are up. Mr. Oldziey is also interested in hearing what fans would like to see in the other sections of his site. Some possibilities include rearranging and updating original WC3/4/Prophecy pieces.
In 1994, George became an in-house composer for Origin Systems in Austin, for whom he composed music for some of the biggest hits in the computer game industry, including the "Wing Commander", "Crusader" and "Ultima" series. After four years at Origin, George left to start George Oldziey Music, Inc. and continued to compose and produce music for other games, including the Playstation 2 version of "Spongebob Squarepants" in 2002. Since then, George has served as an orchestrator, score producer and contributing composer for the Robert Rodriguez films "Spy Kids 2", "Spy Kids 3", and "Once Upon a Time in Mexico". His most recent film credit in that capacity is Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill, vol. 2".
You can find his developing site here. Way back in September 1998 we recorded a special George Oldziey interview. You can find it in episode two of the CIC Infoburst, our old Real Audio show.
