Hi I was wondering if anyone could recomend some websites or books on music theory? I know basically nothing about how to make music, what chords and notes to use and stuff like that. I need this so I can make some simple background music for my games. thanks in advance!

well there is always the music theory in practice books, if yur a beginner that''s the place to start. Author is ERic Taylor, that''swhat i used as a wee boy on my violin. If you are making simple background music it is easy. I can compose that sorta stuff in a day. Of course theanother good way is to listen to alot of ingame music done already see what feel they have and with nongame music as well etc
