I've enjoyed generating some mosaic-like patterns with this one and I highly recommend the procedural music talks over at the Unreal Engine channel on YouTube.

Titanfall 2’s campaign is a masterpiece of FPS storytelling! 🎮

The sound design is incredible, so I couldn’t resist giving the cinematic a fresh take. #gameaudio #sounddesign

I've always admired the work the audio team does over at Frontier Developments. Their sound design is top-notch, and I was inspired to try my hand at creating something similar.
