wrapped up a cinematic/noir-style track๐Ÿ˜„ It was fun going down the vintage aesthetic feel and using a smaller ensemble. The recorded violin really helped push it to the next level too ๐Ÿคญ #composing #cinematicmusic #ryanleach

Come hit me up at #paxwest, and not only show you the raiding rogue lite we're working on Nullpoint Protocol, but I'll give you some things with little guys. Including a sick post card you can slap on your wall of our art, as well my own little guy on my business card. Booth 648!

really cool! What was your thought process to redesign them? was it from user feedback

very cool! what made you decide to rework it? sounds like you were getting diminishing returns on the old code?

Wrapping up my piece inspired by the soundtrack of Tunic, my friend helped with recording the flute, which made the music wayyyyyy better than I hoped for๐Ÿฅบ

Will do some light mixing, add more tonal sounds to gel some sections together, and that's it!

Tried rescoring a fight scene using only percussion!
Used the free Dynamo library from Orchestral Tools. Was a great exercise in thinking differently about how to compose action scenes. fav was the marimba to end the scene, felt really satisfying ๐Ÿ˜Š

Little win today: finally figured out how to set up Voicemeeter on my PC. Now I can record my DAW audio and my voice at the same time with minimal latency ๐Ÿ‘

visual scripting is so intresting, what makes it feel like spaghetti code to you? I would imagine that seeing it visually would help make it more "intuitive" and reduce wasted features if that makes sense ๐Ÿ˜…

Spent this weekend in Lakeland, FL, doing boom recording for a short, and of course, I underestimated how hot it was going to be :( (Florida native btw)
But I did see a cute duck, so it was worth it :)

feel the same way with YouTube search, it becomes biased towards "trending" videos that are not relevant

๐Ÿ‘€cthulu ambience...
I always worry if I should focus on one genre or styleโ€”but then I make something and think, โ€œmeh, this sounds too close to the last one,โ€ and end up flipping it into something new. The cycle continues. ๐Ÿซก

I have an in-between state! adding a bunch of code but suspiciously wondering how it's even compiling or passing tests...

Just saw #Superman and honestly? I loved it. The hope and heroism is exactly what I needed. The LutherCorp theme music was a very cool addition as well!

This remains one of my favorite pieces Iโ€™ve made.

I was inspired by ร“lafur Arnalds, with his minimalist string textures. It was for a scoring competition a few years back, inspired by a nature documentary.

Reminder for myself that the little things can make a big impact when scoring. ๐Ÿ˜Š
