When a late night comedian isn’t allowed to say something the president doesn’t like without retribution from the federal government, you no longer live in a free country.

@spearssounds.bsky.social i know you aren't active but christ it is an honour. aurora, the witch between worlds has that solemn wintry night feeling that i can only describe as home to me, having grown up in alberta and in atlantic canada. you may never see this but i have to say it anyway.

In honor of this weekends #TheLastOfUs season finale, here's Gustavo playing the theme live at the Hollywood bowl. #TLOU

#TheStudio is excellent. An extremely funny and strikingly sad show. It's a great example of why we need satire.

ICYMI the lead single for #teamfighttactics is available to stream now on Spotify and wherever else you enjoy music! This one was a TON of fun to write and produce. Listen to Cyber City Lights everywhere! Listen:

#Andor was easily my favorite #StarWars thing ever. And I don't think I've ever loved anything as much as I love Star Wars.

Happy #MothersDay to my lovely wife - thank you for being such a phenomenal mom. Having you as my partner on this crazy journey of parenthood is a true honor and seeing in action the love you have for our kids is a daily “pinch myself” moment. We love you!!

Shoutout to shvaboshka for this lovely cover of my Aurora theme - check out her page and YouTube channel for more amazing covers! #composer #gamedev #vgm #leagueoflegends

Check out this short look behind the curtain on how Cyber City Lights came together! #teamfighttactics

What a lovely time finally getting to meet AnDy Darling in person! A great collaborator and a great human. Remember to stream Cyber City Lights everywhere! teamfighttactics.ffm.to/cybercitylig... #teamfighttactics

The full soundtrack for TFT Cyber City (including the in1game music) is now out on the brand new TFT profile wherever you stream your music! Additionally, tons of unreleased music from sets 10, 12, and 13 are there as well! #vgm #composer #gamedev teamfighttactics.ffm.to/cybercity

What a great time at the #ascap screen awards! Congrats to all of the winners and nominees. #composer #gamedev #vgm

Having a family is hard. It is often more work than I feel equipped for. That’s why I’m so grateful for moments like this when I can step back and take a look at how truly fortunate I am. Getting to watch these three humans grow up as best friends. I could never deserve such an existence :)

The old Skarner is litteraly the first champ' i've ever played on league. Thank you so much to all of you, from the art to the gameplay and above all to the music for doing it justice - its theme is just incredible.

It’s here! The full version of Cyber City Lights (feat. AnDy Darling) is available wherever you stream your music! I can’t emphasize enough how much fun I had making this one. Huge thanks to the #TFT team for believing in this one! #composer #vgm #gamedev teamfighttactics.ffm.to/cybercitylig...

Recently listened to it for the first time and easily among my favs of the champ themes, it goes so hard!

It’s hard to believe it’s been 1 year since this came out. Huge thanks to the 1 million + who have listened to this across YouTube, Spotify, etc! #composer #gamedev #vgm #leagueoflegends

I’m so honored to have been a part of “Welcome to Noxus”. Take a look at this peak behind the curtain for how we approached the music. I’m so thrilled with how this turned out! Full version: youtu.be/fUgqCm1RKtU?... #vgm #composer #gamedev #leagueoflegends

I have had the album on repeat for days now and I'm still not tired of it, incredible work! It scratches the exact cinematic itch I love I sincerely hope the seasons going forward will continue having music like this

So many hundreds of thousands of words of ink, so many countless hours wasted, explaining how this man was secretly savvy, and it turns out he’s just dumb as a rock, clueless about basic economics, and driven by a malicious paranoia that conniving foreigners are ripping us off

I’m excited for the opportunity to talk about writing music for games at @berkleecollege.bsky.social this week! See you there fellow kids. #gamedev #composer #vgm

Cyber City Lights (written and produced by myself and AnDy Darling) is now available on YouTube! It’ll be coming to Spotify etc later this month. Huge thanks to @karelpsota for the incredible mix! #teamfighttactics #composer #vgm #gamedev youtu.be/4AWjntgjZlI?...

Wow, I am soooo digging your track -- and the rest! Unique, yes. Weird? Doesn't matter if it slaps. (And let's face it, we all like sackbut. 😉)

New music! 🤩 🎧 Album "League of Legends - Welcome to Noxus (Original Soundtrack from League of Legends)" has been released! 🎧

Welcome to Noxus soundtrack dropped a couple hours ago www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I'm beyond excited that the #LeagueofLegends #WelcometoNoxus soundtrack album is available now! I wrote music for the Grand Reckoning (Arena game mode) and I feel it's some of the most unique (and weird) music I've ever written. Listen: league.ffm.to/welcometonoxus #composer #vgm More info in 🧵

Thrilled to have been able to write and produce the track "Cyber City Lights" alongside (and featuring) the immensely talented AnDy Darling! Single coming soon! Presave: teamfighttactics.ffm.to/cybercitylig... Watch the cinematic here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6Pl... #tft #vgm #composer

There’s a lot to enjoy about the #oscars tonight. However it’s also a reminder that the world really started to fall apart the second they took The Tonight Show away from Conan O’Brien.

My March #Substack post is live! My musings on being an elder millennial who is just now finding their footing in the industry that I love - and how age can (and can't) factor into dream chasing. open.substack.com/pub/spearsso... #gamedev #composer #vgm #music
