We’re making a living-room TV party game for toddlers, children, and their grown-ups, using phones as controllers. The first game is Freeze Dance: music plays while players dance, then stops so everyone freezes. We need a composer and sound designer to create warm, bouncy, instrumental audio with a steady tempo and clear beat that a two-year-old can follow. Tracks must have no built-in silences or breakdowns, and every bar should work as a clean stopping and restarting point.

This is a paid test for one 30–45 second seamless dance loop at around 110 BPM, one 1–2 second “music stops, FREEZE!” stinger, and one revision round after family playtesting. The test is needed within one week and may lead to ongoing work on six dance loops, lobby and end-of-party music, around seven stingers, and about 20 sound effects. Experience with children’s content, games, and loop-based music is preferred.

Budget range:
Very small project ($250 – 750 USD)

Examples:

  1. Super Simple Songs (the visual and musical north star): https://www.youtube.com/@SuperSimpleSongs/videos
    Bright, simple arrangements a 2-year-old can follow. Listen for the instrumentation and the clear beat, not the singing.
  2. Bluey music (warmth that parents enjoy too): https://www.bluey.tv/bluey-music/
    Playful, gentle and well made, so grown-ups don’t tire of it on repeat. The “Dance Mode!” album is closest to our energy.
  3. “Monkeys Spinning Monkeys” by Kevin MacLeod (a loopable, bouncy, instrumental feel): https://incompetech.com/wordpress/2014/02/monkeys-spinning-monkeys/
    Pizzicato, steady tempo, loops cleanly and has no silences. This is roughly the shape a Freeze Dance track needs.
