I've been doing more purely musical projects & taking on fewer film & game scores. Looking ahead there'll be a range of releases coming that are an expression of the newfound joy I've found in being a composer & artist. 'Song Offerings' is the 1st chapter.

"That I want thee, only thee--let my heart repeat without end."
Gitanjali is one of the most beautiful works I've ever read about devotional love for the divine. I imagined my job as the composer to channel that pure love in the most direct means possible.

Today is #worldsleepday and to celebrate, Decca Records US has commissioned an ambient remix of my 'Nocturne', recorded by pianist Wei Luo back in 2021. It's a super dreamy reimagining by Paul Corley. Check it out, and while you're at it, give a listen to my original as well!

Choral hang! Dyna and I had a great time hanging with fellow composer Ola Gjeilo and his wife, conductor Irene Messoloras. Hatched plans for our ‘Monsters of Choral Music’ Theme Cruise. (Just kidding! Unless there’s overwhelming demand and then… well, maybe…) #choir #choralmusic

She did it! Mao Shimada with the three-peat. First woman to win three World Juniors in a row, and she did it to my piece 'Mado Kara Mieru'. Bravo!!! You're incredible! (And thanks to The Olympics for the shoutout!) www.olympics.com/en/news/isu-...

These aren't my tattoos! They belong to Ivan Verite, who posted them on Reddit. He's a history buff, as well as a big fan of my music and Civ. And when he heard "Live Gloriously" with its lyrics taken from The Iliad, he had them tattooed, along with the Egyptian gods Thoth and Anubis. Badass!
