games that swap music layers depending on what phase of combat you're in are amongst my favorite when it comes to using simple dynamic techniques... demonschool[new], resonance of fate, phantom brigade, 13 sentinels, beastieball[biased lol]... more that i am probably forgetting.

Made a score reduction/analysis vid for the #Helldivers2 main theme, “A Cup of Liber-tea”! It transcribes both orchestra and synths/drums, and highlights themes. Try and guess how many times you hear the main motif repeated throughout? :-P

Full vid on YT! #gamemusic

Surprise! I just released FTL - Lost Ship EP, a small collection of never before published FTL music, including live tracks, music that was cut from the game, and an expanded piece I made in 2025 based on one of the originals.

Congrats to my friends & thank you to Recording Academy for including SWORD OF THE SEA at the '26 Grammys! & massive shoutout to @wilbertroget.bsky.social for the 2x nom!

I'm sad at the lack of Expedition 33 among them. I would happily trade places. That score is the *definition* of worthy!

An incredibly jam packed evening of math rock, prog, video games, Pokémon art, and anime. I couldn't be more grateful for my band, @armature.band , the folks at Tabletop Village, and the actual Ninja pit during Haruka Kanata 🤘

Proud of everyone for making a show venue pop off tonight!
