3 years ago today I shared this, in the days following the death of a very dear friend. I still think of him essentially daily, and bemoan the music we didn't end up getting to make together. He was a one of a kind legend. watch video on watch page

Another "Raw" video looking at the amazing recording sessions for TOWERBORNE. A fun glimpse at how insanely hard some of the music was, plus the joy of recording a big orchestra in a very tutti, traditional way. watch video on watch page

Here's a little reminder that this exists :) In case you missed it!
Big shoutout to my assistant Dallas and his brother Derek for the awesome work editing this and doing the cool VFX with the sheet music!

I made a music video! Sort of. Thanks to the awesome footage of our @Towerborne recording sessions by Landon Donaho, my assistant Dallas (with help from his brother with the slick sheet music VFX) and I made a fun look at the complete performance of some the game's sprightly combat music. Enjoy! watch video on watch page

What a magnificent orchestra we assembled for TOWERBORNE! It's such a funny thing to spend over 5 years writing something and then in a split second (ok, 1 week of sessions), it's all recorded and finished.
I can't sing loudly enough the praises due these musicians. This material is TOUGH. Given that this game skews towards a broad audience (in the words of our director Arnie, a game he could 'play with his kids'), I made sure to give the orchestra material to really chew on so that when younger folks heard it, they could hear tremendously high-caliber musicianship. Most of what I do tends to be more experimental, but I cherish those largely-bygone days where scores like that of Williams or Horner, or animation stalwarts like Hoyt Curtin and Carl Stalling, would ensure that the audience heard world class, traditional orchestral performance on full-display.

Who's checked out the OST to TOWERBORNE, my latest collaboration with Stoic, creators of the BANNER SAGA trilogy???
I released one "As Noted" and am planning a few others, plus some more BTS looks at how the interactive music system works, etc etc. Stay tuned!
