Hi Bluesky friends!
I promise I won't do this all the time, but I put together a neat little demo reel of a few projects I've worked on!
If any of you need melodically-rich, (potentially) award-winning music for your games, hit me up!

Just a delightful arrangement from Jeff - it was a pleasure to contribute!

When I am really into something, I get this overwhelming passion energy that I just need an outlet for. After watching the show and reading some of the light novels, I just had to do an arrangement of some Apothecary Diaries music. I literally just love it so much, I needed to.

Gareth really has done a solid job on this one, and I have to assume that's @fieldofreeds.bsky.social on every solo woodwind we hear. 😂

Hecking wow
That *is* legitimately beautiful.
I can see how it won you over.

I... didn't read the rest of the post.

Someday, you'll come here, and they're just everywhere. It's called a "double-dog".

I mean, like many of our Chicago teams, they are *cursed*…
So we suffer in eternal hope.

Heeeeey! Congrats on, uh, enduring terrible pain and keeping going? 😅
(That’s essentially what they said when they finally got my knee X-Rays.)🫠

I’ve not messed around with setting it up properly - is there an elegant way to, like, emulate the CDs with ISOs or something?

Stumbled across and picked up this slice of my childhood in a used game shop today.
Hopefully I can get it to run?

Yeah, same - I think I got in right about then and I've been there ever since.
Just a *delight*.

God, when Austin was on GBEast, it was just an *incredible* era.

I am so so sorry, sir.

John Robert Matz 🔜 GameSoundCon @johnrobertmatz.bsky.social · 5d

Sounds like that’s *exactly* the kind of DM you want.

John Robert Matz 🔜 GameSoundCon @johnrobertmatz.bsky.social · 6d

You just *hope when that happens it’s intentional*

The problem for me is when I find an inconsistency, and it’s just mistake. 😅

This is just further cementing the @erikaishii.bsky.social @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social @worldsbeyondnumber.bsky.social connection, absolutely Fox behavior.
