Homie, my brother in Arceus. What do you mean by making music is inaccessible?? I learned through watching 360p YouTube videos on a barely working laptop with totally legal software as a high schooler 😭
Made this using AI? Nah man, that’s actual fraud behavior. No respect for the art or yourself

Mimi doesn’t let me work as she’s determined to catch the cursor on my screen so… I put a fun little video on the second monitor so I get my keyboard area back.

My last two videos of 2025 are almost done! Got a crazy metal one coming this weekend from a game released this year and I’m working on a fun acoustic arrangement of a highly beloved winter/holiday theme to finish off the year. ❄️

Happy 8th Anniversary Xenoblade Chronicles 2!!! 🎉
I said it many times before, but this game literally changed my life. It was my true gateway into JRPGs and completely altered the way I approach making music.
Someone recently asked if it’s still my favorite game of all time…
100%.

I composed the music last year and been looking forward to its release since.
It’s out now!!

25 years since we released Banjo-Tooie! Have a boss-montage. Bosses are always the most fun to make. See how big and strong Mr Patch is!

A lot of modern orchestral soundtracks just don’t do anything for me. Always been a melody first type of guy and I often find video game music unmemorable nowadays. They work in gameplay, but they’re just there to fill that moment.
share an opinion about video game music that will have you like this

I find it a nice that a JRPG-inspired game got so much recognition this year, but I also find it sad to see it constantly being used as an argument against the very genre it meant to celebrate.

My parents found, rescued, and officially adopted this 1.8 lbs stray kitten outside their house… 🥹
Now I’ve been given the important quest of babysitting her for a couple of days!

NEW MUSIC DROP! 🎶 My Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door covers from last year have made their way to your favorite music platforms!
Thanks to Nintendo adding the official soundtracks to Nintendo Music, I was finally able to license these for distribution.
Add them to playlists! They're not bad!

Just realized that last week’s upload was the 500th video for the channel!? 🤯
I don’t do many talking or update videos either so it’s pretty much all music videos… Honestly kinda insane. I’m really grateful to everyone who enjoys what I do!
Here’s to 500 more!? (We’ll see about that one...) 😂

I was really excited for Kirby Air Riders so I played the demo today. It’s beautiful, it plays great, the music is fire…But I feel like throwing up after only a few races! 😔
Even with every accessibility settings on, I feel so sick playing it even in short bursts.

Tomorrow’s cover is one of those where I feel like I was truly able to tell a story with it. A more emotional first half followed by a victorious “we got this” second loop.
Super excited to share it!! ☁️

Started doing my own transcriptions of piano arrangements that I found on YouTube, want to learn, but can’t find the sheet music for.
I’m enjoying this process way more than I thought… It’s almost therapeutic? 😅
