About Me

This is my waystation, the mothership between my many projects and goings-on. I want to feature new things kicking around my head here, Whispers, and costume changes.

Maybe you’ll hear a trombone, a drum loop, an oud, acoustic guitars, fuzz bass dancing with a cello, voices tweaked to psychedelia, Balkan jazz…. In other words, the soundtrack to an awesome life. It's time to shout your lungs out!

I would also like to work with independent video game creators and programmers who are doing interesting, new things in the medium, and would like a different take on game audio.
