One of my favorite tracks from the game. It’s so simple but, to me at least, does a great job communicating the necessary emotions to the players. I can’t wait for y’all to hear the full thing in November 💜

My studio Hyperviolet Games is releasing their first demo for a metroidvania named Erebound on November 13th! It’s been a long 5 years in the making.

Fact: I’m a huge nerd who loves Skyrim….so when my bf convinced me to write new music that could eventually be compiled into a mod I of course said yes! 🏔️

I hope you like it 🙈 Let me know what you think!

The reason I made this post last night is because of a conversation I saw happening. In it, game devs were talking about how composers don't play games they are working on. The reasons ranged a bit, some going so far as to say composers aren't gamers so having them play the game is pointless. 🧵
Game composers: Do you typically play the game you are writing music for while it's in development? And if you don't, is it because you don't particularly think it's important to, or is it because you aren't able to but you wish you could?

Here’s another snippet from the music I created for Hyper Violet’s upcoming game, Erebound 💀

I love the bassoon. It legit may be my favorite instrument. I know it sounds intimidating here but I promise they’re cool.

Let me know what you think in the comments 💜

So excited to be a part of Stratus Chamber Orchestra’s upcoming concert: Limitless Imagination. This wonderful concert will feature Beethoven’s 5th as well as some of my newest pieces, like Castles in the Sky (which is featured in this post)

Eclipse was essentially a compositional challenge for myself. I wrote out 16 measures of solo piano, recorded it, and challenged myself to create a new electronic piece using nothing but those 16 bars. Here’s a look at some of what I did to make 16 bars take up 3 minutes.

Looking back on it, #PacificDrive was a fun but very unusual project to work on - writing the individual pieces went by pretty quickly, but creating each "instrument" from scratch could take weeks of recording, editing, programming, and looking for happy accidents out in the real world!

All genAI sucks. It sucks when it generates words. It sucks when it generates images. It sucks when it generates videos. It sucks when it generates fake-ass voices for your audiobooks.

When I say Fuck genAI I mean *all* of it.

As a Finale user I’ve been procrastinating opening Dorico for about a year now 😅 But I’ve got a plan to create piano arrangements of fun game tunes to help me practice this wild new software. So far I think I’m actually doing well!

Here’s a little look at how I approached melody in my latest piece, Wood Wide Web 🍄

Had an absolute blast this past week in the Grand Tetons for the Wyoming Festival. Hearing a big audience smile and laugh at my music (in a good way) really reminded me why I make music in the first place.

Go go gadget rehearsal iPhone recording 🍄

It's been a busy summer! I finished this piece in May as a gift for my partner, @composereric.bsky.social . I spent a lot of time on it as it meant a lot to me, and I loved how it turned out! Unfortunately the gold paint in areas doesn't shine in a picture. #acrylic #painting #art #fox #music

I needed to make something completely unserious and chose duck butt. I love tiny canvases.
