High Flyer 2 is out! Enjoy! karlbmusic.bandcamp.com/album/high-f...

Excited for you all to hear these new tunes. I think it's some of my best FM synth work. I started the first track back in February. For me that's a very long, slow project, so it feels awesome that it'll finally be out tonight!

Come hang out on Thursday night! I'll be having a listening party for "High Flyer 2" a new album of groovy FM Synth music. It starts at 8pm cst on Thursday, July 10th. Hope to chill with you! Very proud of these tunes. 😎 www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSgv...

The full video of my panel I did at VGM Con is up! This was so much fun (and stressful haha). I composed a Sega Genesis song in 55 minutes, in front of an audience. I hope you get a kick out of it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRpx...

Wow, VGM Con was incredible. My favorite one yet I have to say. Thanks to everyone who came out to my performances and panel. And to all those who shared such kind words. I felt the love this weekend! Looking forward to next time!

Here's where you can find me at VGM Con!! See y'all there!

At MAGFest last weekend, I organized a stellar group of players for a recording session at "Jamspace Studios", a new feature of MAGFest this year. It was pretty dang magical. Check out the 3 tunes we recorded! www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvzn...

Here's Wace Race 64 from our set at MAGFest! www.youtube.com/watch?v=bydp...

That was a kick-ass MAGFest! This VGM community is quite amazing. The talent, diversity, kindness, support, and passion is inspiring. Thanks to everyone for the great hangs, and for checking out our Belvedere set. I hope to see almost all of you again at VGM Con! ❤️

Belvedere. 5:15pm. BE THERE.

Our Windfall set at the Belvedere is only a week away! We wanted to announce that, while our original hand-percussionist Jaime sadly couldn't make MAGFest work this year, the AMAZING Doug Perry @drumultima.bsky.social will be filling in for this set!! Talk about a dream substitute, am I right? 🪘🔥

I can't believe MAGFest is next week! Very excited to get groovy at the Belvedere, and hang out with awesome people!

I hope this site stays nice for a long time. It feels like almost every other one just keeps getting more and more awful.

SO excited to announce that our Acoustic Fusion VGM band Windfall is going to be playing MAGFest in a few weeks!! We'll be playing the Belvedere on Friday Jan. 24th at 5:15pm! See all you lovely folks there!

Our second studio video is up today! Enjoy our cozy take on the lovely "Primrose, the Dancer" from Octopath Traveler! www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CKs...

Genuinely the most interesting, innovative computer music you'll hear anywhere. Every track is a masterclass in creative harmony and production. Always an honor to be featured in these mixes.

The album is now available on bandcamp! Have at it! karlbmusic.bandcamp.com/album/sonice...

my year of streaming revenue equates to approximately two people buying an album of mine on bandcamp. buy any and all music you love within your means. support your friends. don't give money to a massive corporation that's draining the lifeforce from our art form & attempting to devalue it further.

— EVENT — 🪐 Snowdrop Festival 2024 🪐 Sat, Dec. 14, 1pm Pacific Our third annual virtual music festival, celebrating yet another year of incredible music with friends and our community! More details to come ✨ Poster by @paperaviator.bsky.social

I'm super excited to share our first Windfall studio video! Enjoy our cover of "Lively Street" from Kirby: Planet Robobot! www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBQx...

Our opportunity to voice our wish to know who created Nintendo's music directly to Nintendo instead of yelling our disappointment into the void called social media. If you want to change how composer credits are handled right now, that's our chance.

Mark your calendars- Sunday, December 15th I’ll be releasing Sonicesque: Hyperdash! I’ll be having a listening party on youtube this day as well. Very proud of this album!

I’m grieving like a lot of us are right now. I think I’d like to use this time to focus more on my own communities, and doing what I do to hopefully make them a little brighter. And focus less on the things I have no control over, as maddening as they are.

Here's a taste of the Overworld theme from Mazestalker, a 16-bit-inspired action RPG I'm currently scoring! Motoaki Takenouchi was one of a few composers that has been influencing my work in this game. Enjoy!

Had some fun jamming over my tune "Wave Maker" today for no particular reason. 😎🎹

Hello! I'm Karl Brueggemann, and I'm a composer, keyboardist and drummer. I'm currently working on the games Spell Blaster and Mazestalker, and some of you may know my work from the Sonicesque and Downforce series. I'm also a member of Super Marcato Bros and Windfall, and love to collab!

Kirby Floats Up to the Stars, song made with all Kirby SNES instruments

Hi, new friends! I'm Karl, and I'm a composer, songwriter, drummer, and keyboardist. A fitting adjective to describe much of my music is probably groovy. Here's a very quick snapshot of some of my tunes that may give you a sense of what I enjoy when it comes to making music!

Here's a taste of my spooky and funky October Sonicesque tune! 🎃👻

Whew, I'm here! Feeling hopeful about this site!
