Cheers to everyone going to VGMCon and safe travels! Hopefully see y'all there next year.

What other game soundtracks do you think works well with psytrance themes? youtube.com/watch?v=jBDg...

youtu.be/Zv-5lx2VoeI?... It’s not often I continue to listen to a song I write after it’s done. This is one of the few songs I still listen to as there are little clever gems placed throughout. So many talented musicians! @zackparrish.bsky.social @lucasguimaraes.bsky.social @emunator.bsky.social

@yuzokoshiro.bsky.social I’m working on rearranging some of Yuzo Koshiro’s songs and I’m just blown away how good his work is. Thank you for the time and effort you put into your work! Would love to message to ask about some of the synth design choices in Streets of Rage 2 and Etrian Odyssey.

I love working with these peeps! I did some of the synths and bass work. Everyone on this team was so fun to bounce ideas off of! youtu.be/z7TQvvqP2YU?...

It’s amazing how life gets busy so fast. I can’t wait to write music again.

Day 96 #ocremixdaily 🎧 Jeweled Scepter 👤 @chimpazilla.bsky.social 🎮 Sonic Rush Adventure Call me a purist, but I think during the GBA/DS era, all the best Sonic games found themselves on Nintendo handhelds. Rush Adventure may not have been my favorite, but it had a great soundtrack! @ocremix.org

My son painted the cover for this album. It’s a PlayStation controller in an abstract concept piece. For my non-singles, I’ll showcase his art or other artists in my life. I have a new album queued, waiting for a few new songs. Xaleph Covers Vol. 1 youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Twenty eight (28!!!) reverb plugins, tested, evaluated, and ranked for your viewing enjoyment. You might be surprised just how much excellent free stuff is in here (and some of the things I rank in C and D...) https://youtu.be/eDAlRPS_L9w

Day 86 #ocremixdaily 🎧 Lover Reef 👥 D-Lux, @geoffreytaucer.bsky.social, @jillianaversa.bsky.social, Shonen Samurai, @zirconst.bsky.social 🎮 S&K Happy Valentines Day! This fun little collab was made when a bunch of mixers met up 18 years ago. Keep the firing burning everyone. ❤️ @ocremix.org

Premium Vintage full show video is now online from MAGFest. Ate, left no crumbs, etc. youtu.be/GE8xcCttVnQ?...

Just bumped into an old friend.

Day 82 #ocremixdaily 🎧 Hoy, Small Fry! 👤 HyperDuck SoundWorks 🎮 The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Ever want to just hop on a boat, and take in the world? Close your eyes and let this mix inject you with some much needed escapism. Few tracks guarantee a smile out of me like this one. @ocremix.org

Day 77 #ocremixdaily 🎧 Pearly Gates 👤 Sir_NutS 🎮 Flimbo's Quest Picture this, it's 1990, you're booting up your game. It takes OVER 2 MINUTES to load... so, you're treated to some music while you wait! Sir_NutS took that music and RAN with it with this joyful remix. @ocremix.org

A very significant loss for VGM. RIP Stéphane Picq. :-( Dune: Spice Opera is, was, and will forever be a very special game soundtrack worth going out of your way to listen to. bsky.app/profile/thes... www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5Bi...

Exciting news! I will be releasing another collection of FF harp songs on YT tomorrow! 🎵 The video will be 2 hours long. I hope you enjoy it for work/study/relaxation/taking a dump ❤️

Building and using a modular synthesizer has been one of the biggest sources of sonic inspiration this last year. Here's a breakdown of what it is, the kind of sounds I make with it, and how I'm incorporating it into my music!

We’re moving towards a release this year for a music remix album at @ocremix.org for this game. It’s definitely one of my favorites!

Very sad and tragic news to share regarding the DC plane crash: ReMixer DragonAvenger's sister-in-law and niece were among the 67 killed. In you're able to, please give to the family's GoFundMe. ANY amount sincerely helps. gofundme.com/f/honoring-j... VIDEO: nbcnews.com/video/young-...

We've had some folks tell us that they've picked up Hades again after seeing our MAGFest set. A friend of ours picked up this boon during his run🥰 (Yes, the band is named after this)

I cannot stop listening to this. @jillianaversa.bsky.social @zirconst.bsky.social youtu.be/40_IxiWX3pE?...

Day 70 #ocremixdaily 🎧 Caravan Bowser 👥 @flexstyle.fyi & @joezieja.bsky.social 🎮 Super Mario 3D World Caravan Palace meets Mario in this collab! Man, talk about an underrated genre, electro-swing really never got that big, but it's amazing to hear it represented so perfectly here! @ocremix.org

I had a ton of fun producing the dark drum and bass track 'Infiltration' for Arcology, so I made a behind-the-scenes walkthrough of how I did it! I'm looking forward to doing plenty more production videos on YouTube in 2025, so tell me what you want to see next!

MAGFest was absolutely amazing! Incredibly proud of my bandmates @mahn.bsky.social & @supitscarrie.bsky.social for all their hard work! And to @katyvscary.bsky.social, @laceyjohnsonmusic.bsky.social, @neoncowell.bsky.social & @gunderslam.bsky.social for lending us their amazing talents! 💜🖤🍷🤘🏾

Loved the time signature changes and unity of the band. It seriously rocked, probably my favorite song at MAGFest

Saw @premvintageband.bsky.social for the first time tonight! Amazing performance, great stage presence, really enjoyed myself! Consider me a fan!

If you're wondering what that giant synth wall behind me is all about, stay tuned! I've got a video about it coming soon :)

Someday I'll be too old and/or busy for MAGFest, but not quite yet. Thanks for a lovely couple of days (and much-needed hugs)!

MAGFest has fun pop-up events, like "an entire symphony orchestra"

had a moment before Kat's speedrun to poke around in the #magfest museum. I played Killer Bees for the Magnavox Odyssey2. It rules actually the game makes all its sound effects through a speech synthesizer. buzzing bees are a voice saying like "abrzbrzbrz". When you game over it says "OH."

This is the craziest thing I have seen in my life, what the fuck #MAGFest

Vacation is nice and all but now I'm back and ready for another #indiedev weekend! 🎮☕ The settings in #TinyDreamWorld are still pretty barebones. This week I will be working on adding more options and overhauling the UI. 😄 #gamedev | #solodev | #cozygame | #pixelart

Things I love about libraries: Everyone I meet is a real person. Not interrupted by ads that get in the way of what I’m try to see. No algorithms inhibiting my exploration. My browsing history is not monitored or monetized. Feel free to add to this list! #libraries #books #booksky

I remember hooking up one of the really heavy laptops to a wired tape so I could listen to final fantasy midis in my car driving to highschool in the 90s. Blasting those bits was so fun 🤩

We're making a "How many times have I told you not to kick the ball indoors" Simulator #indiegame #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

Day 65 #ocremixdaily 🎧 OverClocked Spot 👤 @bgc.bsky.social 🎮 Cool Spot Remember when 7-Up decided to create a video game? Y'know, to compete with Cheeto's game. Naturally, Virgin Interactive made it, with Tommy Tallarico (his mother's very proud) doing the music... The 90s were weird. @ocremix.org

I have been a fan of @pokerusproject.bsky.social for the last decade and to finally see the full band live was TRANSCENDENT. So so so happy they finally got mainstage!!

I often update my YouTube playlist “Xaleph’s OverClocked Favorites”. I’m completely biased, it’s just stuff I like, usually dark, electronic, or nostalgic. I may start posting individual songs here with some highlights in the song that i just love. @ocremix.org youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I know I preach it a lot in comments to randos, but gonna say it here one last time: BRING CONCERT EARPLUGS BRING CONCERT EARPLUGS BRING CONCERT EARPLUGS please please please protect your precious ears so that you can continue to enjoy all the beautiful music of mag, esp if you plan to go to pose

The millennial experience is growing up with the internet, and watching it go from a free, open, democratic, and eclectic ecosystem to a wasteland of five websites controlled by billionaires, and now seeing it quickly fill up with AI-generated slop. I want our World Wide Web back.

My new album ARCOLOGY is premiering live RIGHT NOW on YouTube - come join us in the chat! www.youtube.com/watch?v=40_I...

@zackparrish.bsky.social put together this massive collaborative effort for @dwellingofduels.bsky.social’s #SmashMonth - thanks for having me throw down some meedlies and squeedlies!! on.soundcloud.com/mmq5ikMoHkgj...

Shout to all our fellow collaborators here on BSky! @emunator.bsky.social @coloradoweeks.io @paradiddlesjosh.bsky.social @nicolewtchang.bsky.social @sheaviolin.bsky.social @hemophiliac.bsky.social @xaleph-musician.bsky.social @cyrilthewolf.bsky.social I’m missing 15+ more that may not be here!
