Go hear some of my friend Ben’s amazing music in the latest expansion of Guild Wars 2 🏴‍☠️

Happy Release Day to @guildwars2.com Visions of Eternity and to its soundtrack! So honored to have written music for this expansion alongside lead composer Bryan Atkinson and fellow additional composer @brendoncomposer.bsky.social; you are both musical giants! music.apple.com/us/album/gui...

Some bard music from my upcoming musical mod for Skyrim 🎻 I hope you enjoy! Let me know what you think below 💜 #skyrim #vgm #gameaudio

One of my favorite tracks from the game. It’s so simple but, to me at least, does a great job communicating the necessary emotions to the players. I can’t wait for y’all to hear the full thing in November 💜 #gamedev #gameaudio

Fact: I’m a huge nerd who loves Skyrim….so when my bf convinced me to write new music that could eventually be compiled into a mod I of course said yes! 🏔️ I hope you like it 🙈 Let me know what you think! #skyrim #gameaudio #gamedev

The reason I made this post last night is because of a conversation I saw happening. In it, game devs were talking about how composers don't play games they are working on. The reasons ranged a bit, some going so far as to say composers aren't gamers so having them play the game is pointless. 🧵

Game composers: Do you typically play the game you are writing music for while it's in development? And if you don't, is it because you don't particularly think it's important to, or is it because you aren't able to but you wish you could?

Here’s another snippet from the music I created for Hyper Violet’s upcoming game, Erebound 💀 I love the bassoon. It legit may be my favorite instrument. I know it sounds intimidating here but I promise they’re cool. Let me know what you think in the comments 💜 #vgm #gameaudio #gamedev

Super excited about the upcoming release of Erebound! Here’s a little taste of one of the tracks I created for this game. Let me know what you think in the comments below! 💜 #gameaudio #gamedev

So excited to be a part of Stratus Chamber Orchestra’s upcoming concert: Limitless Imagination. This wonderful concert will feature Beethoven’s 5th as well as some of my newest pieces, like Castles in the Sky (which is featured in this post) #music #orchestra #coloradomusic #composer

This Saturday! Come hear a fun mix of Legend of Zelda, Beethoven, and me! So excited for this concert 😭💜 #music #denvermusic #newmusic #composer

Eclipse was essentially a compositional challenge for myself. I wrote out 16 measures of solo piano, recorded it, and challenged myself to create a new electronic piece using nothing but those 16 bars. Here’s a look at some of what I did to make 16 bars take up 3 minutes. #music #piano #composer

Mushrooms + the blues = a quirky piece of music #newmusic #music #composer

Looking back on it, #PacificDrive was a fun but very unusual project to work on - writing the individual pieces went by pretty quickly, but creating each "instrument" from scratch could take weeks of recording, editing, programming, and looking for happy accidents out in the real world! #gamemusic

All genAI sucks. It sucks when it generates words. It sucks when it generates images. It sucks when it generates videos. It sucks when it generates fake-ass voices for your audiobooks. When I say Fuck genAI I mean *all* of it.

As a Finale user I’ve been procrastinating opening Dorico for about a year now 😅 But I’ve got a plan to create piano arrangements of fun game tunes to help me practice this wild new software. So far I think I’m actually doing well! #music #dorico #composer

Here’s a little look at how I approached melody in my latest piece, Wood Wide Web 🍄 #music #stringquartet #newmusic #mushrooms

Had an absolute blast this past week in the Grand Tetons for the Wyoming Festival. Hearing a big audience smile and laugh at my music (in a good way) really reminded me why I make music in the first place. Go go gadget rehearsal iPhone recording 🍄 #newmusic #composer #stringquartet

It's been a busy summer! I finished this piece in May as a gift for my partner, @composereric.bsky.social . I spent a lot of time on it as it meant a lot to me, and I loved how it turned out! Unfortunately the gold paint in areas doesn't shine in a picture. #acrylic #painting #art #fox #music

I needed to make something completely unserious and chose duck butt. I love tiny canvases. #traditionalart

Wtf?

NPR@npr.org · 2y ago

The NEA will no longer fund arts programs that promote DEI or "gender ideology." The federal agency has cancelled grants that have funded programs for underserved communities for more than 20 years.

It’s been a blast getting to create the music for this game so far! #gameaudio #vgm

youtu.be/hPzG-j8OVeU Trailer for a metroidvania from my indie studio named Hyperviolet Games! This should be out sometime this year. :) #indiegames #metroidvania #steamgames #pixelart #hollowknight #combat #gamedev

Part of Calico's soundtrack was inspired by Breath of the Wild 🎹🌲 A lot of my game soundtrack work falls more firmly in the digital fusion genre, with plenty of electronic instruments and effects, so it was lovely to write something improvisational on the piano as a change of pace.

As a mastering specialist, I know that music is very personal, and I take that responsibility seriously. I talk to my clients about their goals, what inspires them, why they made their music. It's all about emotion. #mastering #musicmastering #musicproduction #audioengineer #musicsky #gameaudio
