I consider this an honor, it’s not just a gig.

Nice. Nnnnnnice. A lot of heart is already put into this, and more to come.

This is my Chief Of War appreciation post. Holy shit that black lava field fight episode. And everything. And THEN I learned Mr Momoa directed the episode. Wow. That was awesome, brutal and epic as fffk. (Watched that also sound muted and it still grabbed me. Really well done.)

Imagine if all music inventions were treated the way AI is. “The bassoon is an inevitable part of music now. We have to learn to live with it. You must find ways of incorporating bassoon into all music you create because the line between human and bassoon will soon become erased.”

‘Tis the season! 🎃 www.shortlist.com/tech/5-of-th...

Suurin este suomalaisen musan ja leffojen kehitykselle on, että fanihenkilöarvostelut eivät vastaa mitenkään tuotteen todellista tasoa, ja pahimmillaan rapauttavat julkaisevan aviisin mainetta. On selvää, että 1.5-2 tähteä voi järjestään nippaista helvettiin. Tämä EI koske Sisu 2-leffaa, muuten.

In two weeks, join BAFTA-nominated composer, musician and producer @peppepappa.bsky.social in conversation with GI.Biz features editor Lewis Packwood at MCM Comic Con London.

Okay, someone obviously is talking at the EGX in London. @remedygames.com www.mcmcomiccon.com/london/en-us...

Goddammit! ❤️

@lacedrecords.com celebrates 10 years! Composers @codymatthewjohnson.bsky.social (Trek To Yomi) @jesperkyd.bsky.social (Borderlands series) and @peppepappa.bsky.social (Alan Wake 2) feature in @bandcamp.com's label profile with Founder/CEO Danny Kelleher.

Guess what would be cool? If Disney+ app for Apple TV would keep the language settings for at least 24 hrs. But no. We’ll fly to Mars soon and people can have new hearts and livers and one piece of scheiße software demands me to select something else each day. Ok, 1st world problem.

Tomorrow. #aircon25 date: 11th June 2025, time: 14-15 EEST / 11 UTC (And here’s to hoping I got that time right. You know, you’re lacking something when you’re good at something…)

Hey. Any #Apple #LogicPro users? Is it really they managed to introduce a new bug, which hides an insert/effect/instrument/whatnot BYPASS parameter in the automation lane? It's nowhere to be seen and using Touch mode (and clicking effect on/off) creates automation for "64 unknown" - but mute works.

Okay, er… not a woodpecker, but a, well, groundpecker. Or is it just a “pecker”? [grin] This odd guy probably wants it easier than your average Woody.

Not gonna lie. This feels quite awesome (and heavy, no thin vinyls). @remedygames.com @lacedrecords.com #alanwake2 #soundtrack

Heh. I'm sure @samhughesvo.bsky.social will lead this chat straight into the darkest places at AIRCON25 - we'll be having a discussion about @remedygames.com #alanwake2 and beyond. It's all free and streamed, so you'll be most likely to hear it. And, see as well. Of which we're sorry. #aircon25

I did the same - sorry, all listeners, but those bellends aren’t going to use me. #soundcloud

The worst combat feel in any modern game? I mean, mechanism, representation… does it feel like you’re delivering or is it comparable to waving a baguette in a basket ball hall without any actual visual feedback or… well, feel.

I’ve genuinely been looking forward to having this soundtrack in my hands, immediately got played as soon as it landed. Brings back so many memories of Alan Wake 2, 10/10. Laced have done a great job with this release. @remedygames.com @peppepappa.bsky.social @samlakewrites.bsky.social #AlanWake

This is huge! I did a quite lenghty promo interview with @liquidsonics.com about my work on mixing the "Flow" film music by Rihards Zalupe and @gintszilbalodis.bsky.social. It gets a little technical, but has also general insight into the music production process of this Oscar winning feature.

You mean you others pay for the ice cream????????

From this day onwards no more twitter for me, only Bluesky. I just cannot stand the current mood over there at all. I don’t know if it matters to anyone, but spread the word if someone wonders what has happened.

This is something I love about @remedygames.com - the community means _a lot_ and nothing passes our eyes, and these really bring us good vibes, like you’d be here with us with your art, reminding us to become even better. Keep them coming. 🫶🫶🫶

Let’s see what we come up with this one! 😊 I’m literally counting the days until the event.

Alright. Got it. It’s beautiful. @remedygames.com #alanwake2 Next: afternoon coffee.

Oh hot damn, the track has a video too. youtu.be/YgK0_DKaG5k #UMK2025 #Eurovision2025 Written by Neea River, Ilkka Wirtanen, Petri Alanko

One has to have hobbies: the Finnish Eurovision Song Contest - track out now: open.spotify.com/track/2vLNQb... Written w/ Alan Wake 2 “Yötön yö” guitar master Ilkka Wirtanen & Neea River herself - she’s frigging awesome btw… #Eurovision2025

Nerd time. Using ChatGPT to create ir files from pictures. It seems some pics need extra prompting, but… it works. Can I have this as a plugin?

I think I accidentally an Expressive E Osmose. Loving it. Who knew? Damn, that’s a really nice instrument.

If you see only one Xmas movie, make sure it’s Rare Exports, a Finnish superentertaining classic. 😄

Y’all have probably read this already, but it’s a good one. 😊

The last video game I played was Animal Crossing on a Nintendo GameCube (yea, I’m old) but after watching this video on YouTube with @samlakewrites.bsky.social and @peppepappa.bsky.social about how @remedygames.com incorporates really awesome music into their games, I really want to start gaming!

Ooookay. Re: PS5 Pro sluggish controller - all affected titles were on an internal expansion M.2 NVMe, & after having xferred them to the main drive, they’re ok. The NVMe was used in my previous ps5 & it worked okay - this wasn’t my first canoe paddle with electronics, but further testing goes on.

Okay, this seems to be a thing: some PS5/4 games behave oddly on a PS5 Pro & some just work flawlessly. The controllers seem to have a mind of their own on certain titles, as if someone would be using the sticks/buttons. No need for exorcism, tho. Naturally Fallout76 also freezes - ’cos why not? 😄

The soundtrack to acclaimed horror game Alan Wake II by @peppepappa.bsky.social is available to be preordered as both a 4LP box set and a 2LP selection via @laced-audio.bsky.social: blipblop.net/laced-record...

Heh. I wish I could automatically move a timeline from some other social media app here. Anyone?

He knows his stuff, patch sets are phenomenal. 🫶🫶🫶

Bonus: okay, Indy. Loved. Also: Mafia. Loved.

In general, despite the game genre, it was hard to tell them apart from each other. Memory print got left unformed - I only remember singing lemmings(?) from the whole stream. Don’t let the genre overdefine, strangle your creativity and restrict your possibilities. 4/4

Some trailers could’ve been much better without any music at all; Now it felt like there was not even near enough contrast for the actual money shot/selling point - like, didn’t they trust game sound design or OG composer? Also: direct cuts with a BOOOM for 2hrs… gimme air. 3/4

How about no epic choirs and full blast war elephant drums and orchestras for a change, despite they “define a genre”? We need to break the walls, not build them. Genres should show a direction, not harness and control - or reduce. Life and joy happens outside the box. 2/4

Unpopular opinions: Game trailer impact and weapon sound effects are getting very, very comical, unintentionally. Just watching the Gamescom opening video is well enough (for months). 😆🤣😂 How about _not_ putting a low boom sweep under everything? 1/4

It just happened that I curated a Tidal playlist. tidal.com/browse/playl... - Alan Wake 2 related. 😊

A few weeks ago I spoke with a very knowledgeable gentleman from @playmag.bsky.social and was thoroughly surprised for his questions - seems that the brits have the toughest... Anyhoo, babbled about Alan Wake II and other stuff, too, including my “Lowland” moniker stuff.

Holy… wow. A deep bow, I’m in good company. interactive.org/awards/27th_di… - DICE 2024 nomination for ”Outstanding Achievement in Original Music Composition” @alanwake @remedygame#DICEawardsd#DICE202424

Oh yeah! Thanks, New York Game Awards for giving Alan Wake II and Remedy nominations in many, many categories - especially "Best Music In A Game". I appreciate this. 😊

Hey, someone’s talking about mostly @alanwake, but some @ControlRemedy and Quantum Break, too - next Sat 6th Jan 2024 on BBC 3 at 3pm UK. This was probably the hardest interview so far; I seldom go quiet, here… a few times. (Survived. Chocolate helped.) www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Oh thank you a lot, GameSpot !!! - "Alan Wake 2's soundtrack is dark and foreboding, and that's just the way we like it. And yet, you're getting so much more than a spike in your adrenaline…” #alanwake2 www.gamespot.com/gallery/the-...
