About this artist

I advise you use the email to contact me, as I rarely ever check my SoundCloud messages. You can also attempt to get ahold of me via Twitter.

About Me:
SO yeah, I produce mostly video game music, or VGM as I like to refer to it as. Oh yeah, I also do a lot of remixes. I've been doing this music producing thing since late 2011, and boy is it fun. I mostly use a program called Caustic, and sometimes I also use FL Studio. A lot of the instruments I use are often sampled from SNES, NES, and GBA games, and it suits my 16 bit preference of style. A few examples of games I've gotten music samples from would be DOOM, the Final Fantasy games that were on the SNES, EarthBound, Super Mario World, Mother 3, and bunch of others.

Musically I draw inspiration from a lot of sources. In regards to fellow VGM producers, I would say they mostly consist of David Bergeaud (most notably made the music for the original Ratchet and Clank games on the PS2), Toby Fox (y'know, Homestuck, and Undertale), Junichi Masuda (he's made the music for the Pokemon games, and Game Freak Yoshi game that was on the NES), Shoji Meguro (the Persona and Shin Megami Tensei series), and Yoko Shimomura (the awesome gal who's made the music for Kingdom Hearts, along with Live a Live and Super Mario RPG). Long list, I know. But hey, you're reading this for a reason, amiright? :^)

I'm totally open for collaboration pretty much whenever. You can shoot me a message here on SoundCloud, but I recommend using the E-Mail, since I'm more likely to see it there. I am also available for hire to produce music for your game, unless I tell you otherwise. Same goes for contacting me for work. HOWEVER, I do have a policy when it comes to being hired. If you're making your game available for free, you don't need to pay me, but if you choose to do so, that's your call. If your game is going to be made commercially, I will require some means of payment. The policy for that is flexible. I can do hourly payment, or by commission. But regardless of means, I'll most likely require a portion of payment down before I can get to work; this is mostly as a sort of security deposit, so that I know you're serious about this.
