To all the musicians out there, working tirelessly on your craft: thank you.
Your value to music will always be immense.
When you perform, you give yourself to the music and that gift is one I am deeply grateful for.
I've always said that my best rewards come from what players say about HOW the music works in my games.
Lately I've been bombarded with messages of support and I must say it gives me purpose to keep going in trying to offer new experiences with music in games. Merci to all!
I’ve visited the brand new video games museum created by @assomo5
It’s an amazing journey through my own gamer’s life. Highly recommended.
However, having an Atari ST next to an Amiga 500 is…evil!!! 🙂
Big numbers don’t equal quality.
Low numbers don’t equal mediocrity.
I will never blame the audience to listen to something they like but I will blame the institutions to play along the numbers.
Due to the VERY high demand (!) I will start with the first one that was named: Remember Me.
Except it before 2031
I never spoke about my music cause I always felt it was self explanatory but lately I’ve been strongly suggested to walkthrough some of my music and showcase some “interesting” features. Which of my VGM you want me to start with?
