This album is truly special, and I know it's going to be on heavy rotation for a long time! There's some beautiful songwriting and crazy production on here, so be sure to support Laryssa and give this a listen (or 50)~

This Wwise update is huge! The new Parametric EQ functionality is going to be a game changer for my work, and I hope everyone gets a lot of great use out of it. Great work, David and the rest of the team!

TGS 2025 was a lot of fun! Got to see Marvel Tōkon in action on the expo floor, and got to meet some amazing people. Until next time!

I completely agree! It's really impressive. They nailed the game feel and the ability to build a great atmosphere, and the joy of having to take 50 tries to beat a boss LOL

I was honestly skeptical that I'd like Lies of P at all - I had my doubts that it would live up to the caliber that From Software have masterfully set. But, you gotta hand it to 'em....it really is that good. Can't wait to dive into the DLC next!

When I first heard this in the game, I was floored! I'm so glad that everyone can experience the magic that Caroline Polachek and Danny Harle created 🏝️

Under the Radar Magazine @undertheradar.bsky.social · Jun 23

Caroline Polachek has shared a new single titled “On The Beach” as a part of the soundtrack for Hideo Kojima’s game "Death Stranding 2."

I've been wanting to make a blog for a while, so I finally set one up! I'll be posting on a somewhat regular basis, talking about my life here in Japan, as well as general game audio topics, sharing my photography, music/local recommendations, etc.

If you hear of anyone who needs a composer, audio implementer, or music producer/arranger, it would help me out so much if you sent them my way. I compose a big variety of music styles (and can do both interactive and scoring to picture), and I know Wwise, FMOD, Unity, and C#

Thanks so much 💚

Also, for the Album title, I tend to just simply put "Original Soundtrack", "Piano Collections", etc.!

Alex Previty @alexprevity.bsky.social · Mar 10

The reason I personally prefer to do it this way is that iTunes prioritizes Album Artist over the normal Artist field, and usually I want to listen to a specific game's soundtrack rather than that composer (especially when a game has multiple composers).

Alex Previty @alexprevity.bsky.social · Mar 10

If the track is arranged by someone else, I'll give them the "Artist" field while giving the "Composer" field to the original composer. Also, VGMdb is your best friend! That always seems to have the most correct composer/arranger information, as well as the best romanization.
