Another one of my projects made it to @ign.com! I got to compose the music for the "Noko's Noodles" reveal trailer. Thanks again to @cyclogon.com for having me on the project! Steam: tinyurl.com/noodlesteam Trailer: www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyI4... #gamemusic #indiedev #trailermusic

Check out our CCG roguelike deckbuilder Vortex Siege at Boston Festival of Indie Games (@bostonfig.bsky.social), with music by @kingaurorus.bsky.social & art by @united-divisions.bsky.social & @fergusdraws.bsky.social! #bostonfig #gamedev #indiedev #games #roguelike #deckbuilder #ccg #vortexsiege

Already missing @ubisoftmontreal.bsky.social after a week there for the SOCAN Foundation Screen Music Lab! Learned so much about AAA music and got to meet a whole host of amazing composers and music supervisors. I feel I really got to level up my composition 💪 #vgm #gamedevs

Been an amazing day so far catching up with friends, checking out the talks and all the amazing games coming out of B.C! Full Indie Summit has been an absolute pleasure! Already looking forward to coming back next year 😁

I'll be popping up to @fullindie.bsky.social Summit this coming weekend. If any of my Vancouver folks are looking to catch or or meet feel free to reach out and we can find some time to chat at the conference 😁

I've released two OST's today! It's very experimental to release these. I'm excited to showcase my diversity with the electronic ambient of Starstrike and the Celtic Orchestral with Dark Age Dinos. Links: shorturl.at/ZKTUw

I'll be giving a talk on the science behind horror music on Aug 28th in collaboration with @showpass.bsky.social Tap Talks. Come out and learning a bit of the behind the scenes psychology at play in horror 😁 Tickets Link: www.showpass.com/taptalks-sou...

Another project I worked on made it into @steampowered.com Next Fest! Was very excited to compose music and create some sound design for 7th Fleet Games project "Starstrike" Link: store.steampowered.com/app/2725860/... #gamedev #indiedev #gameaudio #vgm

I'm thrilled to announce I am the composer & sound designer for the upcoming #metroidvania @shadeprotocolgame.bsky.social. The trailer is currently trending #1 in the metroidvania subreddit and was picked up by the @ign.com YouTube channel! #gameaudio #indiedev www.youtube.com/watch?v=54Av...

Was so much fun presenting at Otafest this weekend! Being in a room full of gaming nerds is never a bad time 🎮 #gameaudio #composer #sounddesigner

Sneak peak at some of my work on @mintinboxgames.bsky.social upcoming anti-gravity racing game! This is the main theme for “Velocity Loop: Zero to Lightspeed” 🚀 #gameaudio #vgm #gamedev #indiedev youtu.be/_9lBoxVyK4w?...

I came, I saw, I kicked…..maybe I just did super well ❤️ Thanks again to @officialgdc.bsky.social for having me speak at their event! Looking forward to enjoying the rest of the conference 👾 #gamedev #indiedev #gameaudio #publicspeaking

Day 2 of @officialgdc.bsky.social and I will be speaking! It’s my first GDC panel and I’m incredibly excited to share my experience and perspective on #gameaudio with such a wide audience 💪 Wish me luck! 🔥 #gamemusic #gamedevelopment #indiedev

For anyone who missed it, I will be speaking at the @officialgdc.bsky.social Looking forward to reconnecting with everyone while there! My solo panel: shorturl.at/aWOoY Lunchtime Audio Surgeries: shorturl.at/gyml8 #GDC2025 #MeetMeAtGDC #WeAreGDC #gameaudio #indiedev #gamedev

Becoming hyper aware of audio WILL drive you nuts at some point 😂 Learning to really appreciate sound in all forms is the only way to combat going just a little bit crazy! #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev #sounddesignerlife

#gamejams are ALWAYS the best way to meet, network and build a game if you’re new to the industry. Hands down the best way to get yourself in the door and they always are a ton of fun 🔥🎮 #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev

“Never forget who you are” - me being a #homestuck fan 😂 but seriously the music was pretty damn good! #gamedev #gameaudio #indiedev

Another personal milestone reached today! “Get to Work”(which I created the rollerblade SFX and the grindset podcast track on) was streamed on @GameGrumps! Having YouTubers I watch play a game I worked on feels amazing 😁 #gameaudio #gamedev youtu.be/8P2R0YNRZ64

#gameaudio and #musicproduction are similar but have different uses/connotations and goals with the music/audio. To outsiders it’s strange but I often compare it to an architect vs an engineer, you both “build” the building but in different ways! #gamedev #indiedev #gamemusic

ANY industry that’s over saturated will be one you need to hustle in! Only because competition means you will need to go above and beyond to burn your name into the ecosystem 🎼 Do it because you need it, not because you want it 🔥 #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev #hustleculture

Let’s face it, most people would love to work in artistic jobs 🎼🎨 Be prepared to face lots of uncertainty but if you stick with it you can break through the ocean of other #gameaudio professionals 🔥 #gamedev #indiedev #entrepreneur #gamemusic

#foley is the unsung hero of cinematic #sounddesign. Without it scenes can feel devoid of life! It’s why I’m always so proud when I can make something feel “real” when working with it. #gameaudio #filmaudio #gamedev #indiedev

Having the budget to truly give your game a proper a thorough soundtrack makes all the difference! So many developers undershoot how much music they need to audio brand their project! Music adds memorability! ❤️ #gameaudio #musicproducer #gamedev #gamedesign

Attention spans have unfortunately dropped for most folks which definetly hits musicians and #gameaudio folks the hardest 😢 Alas adapting to the new world is a requirement to make it! #gamedev #indiedev #musicproducer #vgm

#impostersyndrome is a VERY real thing that artists face! It’s important to remind yourself that no matter what you may believe, your hard work paying off is for good reason. Compare yourself to yesterdays you ❤️ #gameaudio #mentalhealth #gamedev #indiedev

Cologne commercials are always fascinating because how do you represent smell? Abstract stuff like this is certainly some of the more interesting audio work in marketing 💸 #audioproduction #filmmusic #musicproducer #composer

Even though the tech is very outdated now, the stuff David Wise was doing on #donkeykongcountry was revolutionary for #gameaudio implementation at the time! Makes the soundtrack that much more memorable ❤️ #gamedev #indiedev #gamemusic

Do YOU need both a Mac and a Windows? Maybe not! But many #gameaudio professionals will which can be a truly brutal hit on the finances 💸 Luckily some companies will make sure you have both on their dollar. #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment

Some sounds are downright IMPOSSIBLE to record unless you have the right equipment, facility, budget, the actual thing you need to record, the license to use the thing you need to record….you get it 😂 Sometimes sample libraries are the right solution! #sounddesign #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev

I was featured in all 3 of these interviews! Was incredibly excited to share the @calgarygamedevs.bsky.social event and story with the media 😄 #gamedev #indiedev

Collaborating on this short was an incredible experience and was a pivotal moment in my own career. it also helped me understand #autism on a deeper level! #filmmusic #shortfilm #filmproduction #sounddesign

Look mom I’m on TV! In all seriousness love promoting our events with the @calgarygamedevs.bsky.social ❤️

“Anime” music will always have a soft spot in my heart, it’s hard to get away from those buttery smooth chords 😂 #gamedev #indiedev #gameaudio #animegirl

Getting hired IS the hardest part! Yes it’s still good to apply but you will get waaaaay more jobs from people who know you or find you and reach out👌Make yourself the go-to person in your #gamedev community for #gameaudio 🎼 #indiedev #sounddesign #videogames

I've begun working on Soar VR! Super excited to be working on this since the tech behind self flight in VR is pretty wild 🪽 Will share updates when I can since i'll be doing a complete overhaul on the audio for the game 🎧 Link: meta.com/experiences/... #gamedev #indiedev

Sometimes the client doesn’t know what they want and that’s OKAY, it’s YOUR job to figure that out! Listen to soundtracks often and have a diverse portfolio so you always have references to draw upon before beginning your work. It will often save you a TON of time 👌 #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev

@crazykungfu.bsky.social was an awesome mix of music & sound design for me. The unique mixing of Chinese traditional instruments alongside more modern electronic soundtrack styles was a hell of a treat! #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev #musicproduction

#stardewvalley 🐮 was a game changer in the industry and its music might seem obviously “cozy” but there’s more going on behind just good composition! 🎶 #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev #gamedesign

Time management is very important and necessary if you’re going to succeed in a field like #gameaudio Personally my calendar app is maxed out with everything from work to my personal life to make sure I’m always organized 😂 #gamedev #indiedev #gamedesign #entrepreneurs

Yes luck is a factor in being successful, but luck like in RPGS can be increased. “Make your own luck” is a quote to live by! 🎲 #gamedev #gameaudio #indiegamedev #businesstips

Sometimes my favourite work get hidden behind unreleased projects, on the rare cases where there isn’t an NDA I try to make sure it gets seen somehow! 🎶 #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev #musicproducer

Finally got my @globalmusicawards medal. Really excited to have my first award for specifically #gamemusic ✨🎉 #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev #unboxing

Shoutout to Akanyte since their incredible designs have carried me fashion wise 💃🏻 but yes make sure your fit is interesting! Many will be surprised at how much of a difference it makes on how people perceive you 👀 #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev #musicproducer

No, you don’t need to move to LA to make it……but it does make it significantly easier 😂 making it out to conventions like @official_gdc can help a lot for those who are in cities with low game dev opportunities! #gamedev #indiegamedev #musicproduction #gameaudio

@woollywalrusgames upcoming title #darkagedinos has allowed me lots of freedom to explore mew ideas for SFX, it’s always cool to break apart the VFX into components and treat it like scoring in a way! 🦖 #gameaudio #gamemusic #gamedev #indiedev

#breathofthewild in many ways was a breath of fresh air (haha) because it took the intricate themes of the old #loz games and molded them to fit the much more open,sandboxy and exploration based gameplay! Truly a masterpiece 👑 #gameaudio #gamemusic #gamedev #indiedev

Lots of projects never make it to light which can always suck, but it’s just part of the job! It’s also why every project that makes it to market is very special to me since it means the work I did gets to truly get its moment in the sun ☀️ #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev #musicproducer

Business and the artist side of things are hard to balance. Another recommendation I have is to separate what days you handle art vs admin stuff since it’s easier for your brain to not be switching! #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev #musiclife

Been a bit sick over the holidays but getting back into it! I’m not a racer but man do I love #drumandbass and the #forzahorizon soundtracks always deliver. Nothing works better when driving 150mph down an open road 🏎️🔥 #gameaudio #gamedev #indiedev #videogames
