I’m done with Pragmata. One of the best games I’ve played in a long long time. Fresh gameplay, stunning visuals, amazing story and characters. I’m in love.

@AstraProc First point is that composers get exposed (vast majority) because they are attached to a successful game. Which is “mechanical”, they could have written beautiful music prior on unknown games, yet they didn’t “exist”

@oderiviere So what happens then is that they share said music to other's who don't have the context, and to them that (often context dependant) music is boring as shit. It's best to share and discuss game music that is simply great music in or out of context. 2/2

The discussion around video games music in a nutshell: - A hit game = a composer exist - History of VGM = bleeps and bloops - Best OST ever = name the games you like the most I understand the appeal but I don't think it helps in giving players a better experience.

Am I the only one who feels that most creations in pop culture have been stripped of deep emotions and replaced with superficial ones? Everything feels shallow and surface level. I feel lucky that the people I work with allow me to express deeper, more complex emotions.

@oderiviere I'll be honest, when I heard you were picked to score Streets Of Rage 4 I didn't think you were the right fit. I was happily proven wrong. Whatever you're doing next, I have full faith.

If you were surprised that I was the main composer on #StreetOfRage4. you're not prepared for what's coming next... (This announcement is subject by the law of cancelled games, let's hope for the best)

Ghost Of Yotei done. I must confess that I didn’t expect much. How wrong was I… Amazing game. The story telling moved me which is rare for me.

Tonight, South of Midnight was recognized with a BAFTA for New Intellectual Property!! 🏆✨ Rooted in the stories, the sounds, and the beauty of the Deep South, this is a game built with compassion and wonder. What a moment. What a team. What a journey. Thank you to all our players.

Making games is about the people you work with. It’s years spent together through great moments & difficult ones. Sometimes it turns into friendship & often into lifelong memories. That’s what I value the most. And ofc we still do everything we can to make the best game possible
