"IT'S ALL LOVE" from "M-GROOVE", the #MAXMODE2025 OFFICIAL SOUNDTRACK 🎵 When I went to DATA with the idea for MAX MODE having a soundtrack, this was the first song I did for a proof of concept. They seemed to like it enough, I guess. 😊 youtu.be/yAzWS5fldTM

I can do better.

For a bonus track on the MAX MODE OST, they asked me to arrange Rock Howard's theme from "Garou: Mark of the Wolves". As a Rock player myself, how could I say no? 🐺 Check out my version of "Spread the Wings" and listen to the rest of the OST while you're at it! ✨ youtu.be/D07E1iQXW4A

"DOWN TO BUSINESS" from "M-GROOVE", the OFFICIAL #MAXMODE2025 SOUNDTRACK ✨ This was one of the songs that I had the most fun making. I entered a crazy flow state, firing away with melodic and harmonic ideas once I laid down the drums. Please support the full song below! ⬇️ youtu.be/6O6gCn7lB7E?...

"UNCHAINED" from M-GROOVE, the OFFICIAL #MAXMODE2025 SOUNDTRACK ⛓️‍💥 There's nothing like that feeling of going past what you thought were your limits. When I made this, I felt like I was on a new level as a composer. I hope this song motivates you to break limits, too! 💪🏾 youtu.be/5WA4nQ4NEz4

"TAKE YOUR TIME" from the #MAXMODE2025 OFFICIAL SOUNDTRACK! 🎵 Sometimes, the character select screen has a bop, so you take your time picking your characters to groove a bit...or you're icing your opponent. I don't judge either way. youtu.be/iBSY6XdGr4E

I’m glad that #MAXMODE2025 will be keeping me preoccupied until 4 PM EST, when the soundtrack comes out. Otherwise, I’d be pulling out all the hair I don’t have while nervously waiting for the release.

Extremely proud of how "M-GROOVE" turned out. For months, my mind was constantly preoccupied with making the best soundtrack I could compose for #MAXMODE2025. A lot of studying. A lot of notetaking. A LOT of lost sleep. It was all worth it. Please enjoy it tomorrow at 4 PM ET.

MY #MAXMODE2025 COMMENTARY SCHEDULE 🎙️ I’ll be busy all weekend with blocks on ALL THREE DAYS for #COTW and #GGST! Should be a fun time with some fun partners. Tune in this weekend for all the action! 🔥

“Do you love competing or do you just love winning?” 🤔 Had a great time sitting down with “In The Lab” to talk about being passion-driven, being honest with yourself and your pursuits, and of course #MAXMODE2025! Listen here: open.spotify.com/episode/2Psx...

Award Tour + Extras. New gear. 🌹 Last night, we did numbers. Won my 2nd GBVSR local bracket in a row (14th win total). I was also the recipient of “Oldhead of the Year” (I’m 26) and “Hater of the Year” (I call out loser behavior) at the GA Strive Awards. Beautiful night. More to come very soon.
