It's boggling to think that the OMNO soundtrack, which I poured heart and soul into, released 4 years ago today! So much has happened in that time, and I'm so grateful for the support and opportunities that have come since.

@falconeerdev.bsky.social asked me which was my favourite trailer we made for The Falconeer.... possibly this one simply for that sync with the lightning :D

Having spent countless hours over the last x months fixing sound design for a project, this simultaneously relieves and irritates the hell out of me!

With it being Feb half-term and myself firmly stuck in the studio, it feels appropriate to re-share this track I wrote 5 years ago, inspired by my favourite red ski run... For it me captures all the excitement, energy and mild peril of hurtling down the slope! Hope you enjoy :)
Its an old mix...
What an awesome idea! Where’d you get that from?! 😆

13.02.2025 23:16 — 👍 3 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Gamers with perfect pitch: do you get upset/struggle when game music gets pitched around for creative purposes? (Eg…poor health => pitch detunes) is there a length of time you can stand it for?
