We can finally announce that @gabrielsassone.bsky.social and I are working on the second edition of the Vulkan rendering book. More details to come soon!

Had SO much fun and learned a ton from @hlywa.bsky.social about how games get funded and what publishers look for. Hope you check this episode out!

The most comprehensive video I've watched about this topic. It goes over what independent music distribution is like, Spotify's music takedowns, how much money goes into making an album (in detail), and how much artists make from streaming revenue (also in detail). youtu.be/L_qvmAXFCOg?...

Woke up to the news that I've been laid of from my day job 🙃 Sharing this ⤵️ cause it was my main source of income and I need all the gigs I can get 🙏 If you don't have a project, talking to your colleagues is also appreciated. Word of mouth from peers does way more than hearing from a stranger.

With great trepidation, I present thee my first track that I am confident enough to share. I will add more songs over time as I polish older tracks that I think make the cut and make new ones. mcproductionsuk.bandcamp.com/track/space-... Feedback welcome :)

I had the BEST time chatting with @paullicino.bsky.social for @questmarkers.bsky.social earlier this week; he shared his experiences so generously and it was lovely to reflect on what goes into creative work. Check out our episode below! ☕

HarmonyCloak is to music what Glaze and Nightshade are to images. It doesn't look like it's out yet, but if you haven't heard of it and want to follow along, here's a little link 🖤 mosis.eecs.utk.edu/harmonycloak...

As a reviewer, I got a few codes for a free copy of "Vulkan 3D Graphics Rendering Cookbook". PM me if you'd like one, first come, first served :)

People are still finding optimizations on 30 years old software. Imagine how much is left on the table for programs we use every day: fabiensanglard.net/fastdoom/

If you missed it, here's a great discussion between professional composers in the video game industry, including how to get your first gig. Highly recommended! thinkspace.ac.uk/game-scoring...

✨KICKSTARTER NOW LIVE✨ Making the music of Lukso Ng Dugo: a mini production breakdown. Lukso Ng Dugo is an animated horror short film inspired by Filipino folklore. The film uses monsters like the aswang to make commentary on intergenerational cycles of abuse. www.kickstarter.com/projects/luk...

Latest addition to the collection. For some reason Arcane just hits different. The music for the show is one of the best for me.

I haven't seen this posted here. If you're a Nier fan, this will be a treat: nierpianojourneys.com/tourschedule/

Mastering engineer, a day in the life... - Why can't I get this track to the right loudness?! - Checks track fader after 10 minutes of messing around with the limiter - It's set a -3 db 😅

I know this probably means nothing to most of the people who follow me, but this is a small achievement on a very long road:

This is great advice not just for composers but anyone thinking of going solo. My take on ideas though is that the more you practice and the more you learn about something, the more likely you are going to come up with new ideas. www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCfc...

For those of you who think a graphics programming book would be the perfect gift for Valentine's day, I had the pleasure to review this book as it was written. Plenty of great insights for beginners and experience programmers both! www.amazon.com/Vulkan-Graph...

We might have the opportunity to do a second edition of our Vulkan programming book! What additional topics would you like to see covered? What did we miss the first time?

If I would start off again today to become a professional music composer: 1. Getting familiar with the basics of music theory and sound design and listen to as many CI sounds as possible per day and analyze them to bits.

What better way to start the new year by upping your Vulkan game?! The digital version of our book is currently discounted on the Packt website: www.packtpub.com/en-us/produc... Grab it while it lasts!

Goal for next year: reach Sabrina Carpenter's level :D

“You have the same 24 hrs in the day as xyz” is a fundamentally flawed platitude used to shame ppl. Money buys convenience which in turn buys you extra time. The more money I make the more time I have because I can outsource daily tasks AND not work 3 jobs at the same time to pay the bills.

The Darkness has new competition for this year's Christmas soundtrack: www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMjT...

Denis new book is a must have for people interested in CPU performance: github.com/dendibakh/pe... And as a bonus (or deterrent, you choose!) you can see my ugly mug in the acknowledgments :)

Chat suggested I do some sound design on this for the ✨vibes✨, so here it is

Hello, is this thing on?
