This synth patch uses randomness to create an endlessly evolving sound:
For every new note, the volume, panning, fine tune, octave, and waveform of some of the oscillators are randomized. I could let this section of music loop for hours and get something slightly different every time!

Had the opportunity to play a DJ set last week for the 15th anniversary of @atlangames.com, my local video game cluster!
I played a collection of synthwave and cyberpunk tracks I've released over the years. Always appreciate putting my background in music performance to use for this kind of events!

I created an SFX "instrument" that allows me to "play" futuristic, sci-fi whooshes when I play random notes and move sliders around on my MIDI keyboard. The power!
Coming from a musician background, I really appreciate being able to "perform" sound effects like this.

I took my heavy cyberpunk music track I shared last week, "Straylight Menace", and turned it into a dynamic music system in Fmod to accompany a two-phase boss fight, with cutscenes before, during, and after the boss fight, similar to what you might encounter in modern RPG games:

Music demo time! This week, I have some heavy cyberpunk music:
Going for a futuristic sound with a grimy / dirty edge, I think that combination is the essence of the cyberpunk aesthetic.
Could work as a boss battle theme in an ARPG, with the quieter parts underscoring cutscenes.

I wrote an epic boss fight theme!
I was envisioning a climactic battle in the sky against a gargantuan boss, hence the title, "Sky Sunderer". Maybe not the final boss, but definitely close to it!

I wrote some creepy music, taking inspiration from Japanese horror media and going for a slight retro 90s/00s vibe.
Makes me think of dark, mysterious woods, and some messed up occult ritual happening by a moonlit night.
Not written for Halloween specifically, but it did line up pretty well!

I wrote a piece with a 15/16 time signature, which is probably the wackiest time signature I've ever used!
Going for something crystalline, enigmatic, and ethereal. Think a late-game level in an RPG or Metroidvania made of pure white, mirrors and glass.

I made a video to break down my process as a game composer.
Here's a behind the scenes look into how I created the first level theme for Turbo Shell, by Radioactive Dreams UG, from initial demo to final master:

Here's a somber and sorrowful track I wrote recently, featuring piano and an accompaniment of strings, guitar, and electronics.
Could work as a main menu theme, or for a specific in-game cutscene.

We don’t want AI slop.
Stop sending us AI slop.
Stop wasting our time with AI slop.
It doesn’t sound good.
It’s antithetical to our core values.
You didn’t even make it.
Knock it off.

Here's a solo piano piece I wrote recently. Going for something playful and cute — makes me think of little animals going about their lives and maybe making a little mischief.
And yeah, I'm a big fan of Debussy.

In Final Fantasy Tactics on the PS1, there's a moment in the game that apparently came to be known as a "save death trap":
The game offers you to save right before a big battle, but from that point on, you have no way to progress other than winning said battle. Can't turn back and grind.
