Congrats to my friends & thank you to Recording Academy for including SWORD OF THE SEA at the '26 Grammys! & massive shoutout to @wilbertroget.bsky.social for the 2x nom!
I'm sad at the lack of Expedition 33 among them. I would happily trade places. That score is the *definition* of worthy!

A great time yesterday at Game Jams in West Hollywood! One more show today in Burbank. You’ll hear Milio, Smolder, and Aurora’s champ themes (+ music from so many amazing composers such as @wilbertroget.bsky.social and @maclaine.bsky.social). I’ll be there with my whole family so come say hello!

GAME INDUSTRY TIP: Please don't make business cards with all-black backgrounds on both sides, or all-glossy on both sides, etc.
This makes it tough for recipients to take notes on your card, which makes you harder to remember after days of meeting dozens of new people

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!

Cleaning up old files and found this one of the gloves I made for the nail layer of the wolf footsteps for Ghost of Yotei. I found a place in Nebraska that sold the nails (gulp) and stitched them into a couple gloves. Pretty sure @chrissoundsrad.com recorded some stuff with them too. #GameAudio

I made a pitch flattener VST3/AU, great for turning dopplered sirens, screams, or animal cries into pitch-locked, high-energy sci-fi source. Weird, glitchy, artefacty fun. Free AU/VST3 (Mac/Win). Uses Rubber Band + FFT.

The nice thing about beating Silent Hill 2 is, you've just beaten one of the greatest and most thought-provoking videogames of all time.
The 𝓽𝓮𝓻𝓻𝓲𝓫𝓵𝓮 thing about beating Silent Hill 2 is,

On the subject of #IvaliceChronicles announcement, I'll again give credit where credit's due - Sakimoto's brilliant #FinalFantasyTactics score was a HUGE influence on my work on many games, including #Helldivers2 - This clip from "The Right Side of History" being a prime example!

I desperately wish I was smart/persistent enough to actually beat #FFTactics , I've tried 3x since the original PS1 release and can never get far. But the music was such a huge influence... maybe 4th time's the charm? 😃

GAMEDEV TIP: We should just remove the word “final” from our vocabulary when naming files 😅
Instead, try just using version numbers or, preferably, dates! YYYYMMDD_HHMM works great and sorts perfectly in your file systems.

KONTAKT TIP: Some orchestral/acoustic sample libraries have inconvenient slow attack times in the recordings, so adjusting the Volume Envelope won’t help.
Try adding SampleStart modulation instead! Set the Source to Sampler, add a Constant mod set to SampleStart.

MUSIC PRODUCTION TIP: Another reminder to try transient shaping!
Generally, percussive hits/impacts sound bigger and more distant when they have less transient and more sustain. I’ll use this subtly on solos / hand perc, more extreme on big hits, giant metals, or for big "stadium rock kit" snares!
