He/him. Composer of concert music and also game music sometimes. Dog and baby fighting for the right to kill me. Commissions welcome if I yet draw breath.

Reintroduction time!

I'm a composer and pianist who writes avant-garde-ish classical stuff and game music. I mostly post about music, videogames, and anime.

Here's a mashup of entirely too many pieces of my music. I am extremely commissionable

we can't keep sending the message that if a trans person in any way bothers or annoys you you can get a job at the heritage foundation. unsustainable way to run a society

Sure, I spent most of the holiday in bed with a stomach bug and the 100+ fever meant that all cognitive streams were firing at full volume for like 72 hours but one of them was an idea for a silly little piece featuring otomatone so who's to say if the whole trip was a wash or not

the “thanksgiving food is bad” discourse raises its ugly head every year, but the truth remains that thanksgiving food can be amazing as long as you know how to cook. the problem is we’re throwing a few million sunday drivers directly into a grand prix
I think this is unfair to turkey. turkey is good but hard to cook well because it is so damn big. turkey *parts* are great but lack the esthetic appeal of a centerpiece bird.

kinda sick of entertaining the imagined objective qualities of art because people are entirely uninterested in reading one(1) essay about how meaning is derived from text.

Whenever you write that a story is "good" or a character is "relatable" you are talking about *yourself* as much as the game.

BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really.

Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are.

This is their story: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...
Why ‘Silksong’ Took Seven Years to Make
The highly anticipated indie game has been in production for so long that it’s become an internet meme
