Hey, I thought it would be fun to take some time and talk about what we all use to make music/sounds/whatever it is we do with it.

Damn that's a nice setup. Nord gear is so cool. What kind of stuff do you make/play?

I've always had a hard time describing my music. I guess I take influence mostly from 90s computer games, downtempo electronic/pop (think Rufus Du Sol, Pair of Arrows), and a little bit of EDM. I used to lean toward synthpop (Ladytron, Depeche Mode), but now all my music efforts are going into the soundtrack for an indie game I'm working on.

Very cool. Do you have it posted anywhere?

Also curious, what kind of game is it?

Everything I've posted online is super old at this point and my recent stuff is all WIP, but this is a good nudge to wrap up and post some stuff soon.

The game is Galactic Chef, a sci-fi cooking competition show game. The main hook is an open-ended voxel cooking simulation, so you can get creative in inventing your own dishes to meet each challenge. It's been a fun exercise coming up with different sound palettes for the different alien worlds you compete on.
