Sadly wasnt able to participate, but I liked this scene from a competition created by Vienna Symphonic Library. Wanted to explore doing a medieval aesthetic with modern musical elements 😎

Hi, I'm Pete, a game/film composer based in Tampa, FL.
I love working on story-driven projects with a hybrid orchestral synth style. I would love to work on yours!

wrapped up a cinematic/noir-style trackπŸ˜„ It was fun going down the vintage aesthetic feel and using a smaller ensemble. The recorded violin really helped push it to the next level too 🀭 #composing #cinematicmusic #ryanleach

very cool! what made you decide to rework it? sounds like you were getting diminishing returns on the old code?

Wrapping up my piece inspired by the soundtrack of Tunic, my friend helped with recording the flute, which made the music wayyyyyy better than I hoped forπŸ₯Ί

Will do some light mixing, add more tonal sounds to gel some sections together, and that's it!

Tried rescoring a fight scene using only percussion!
Used the free Dynamo library from Orchestral Tools. Was a great exercise in thinking differently about how to compose action scenes. fav was the marimba to end the scene, felt really satisfying 😊

visual scripting is so intresting, what makes it feel like spaghetti code to you? I would imagine that seeing it visually would help make it more "intuitive" and reduce wasted features if that makes sense πŸ˜…

Spent this weekend in Lakeland, FL, doing boom recording for a short, and of course, I underestimated how hot it was going to be :( (Florida native btw)
But I did see a cute duck, so it was worth it :)

feel the same way with YouTube search, it becomes biased towards "trending" videos that are not relevant

I always worry if I should focus on one genre or styleβ€”but then I make something and think, β€œmeh, this sounds too close to the last one,” and end up flipping it into something new. The cycle continues. 🫑

I have an in-between state! adding a bunch of code but suspiciously wondering how it's even compiling or passing tests...

Just saw #Superman and honestly? I loved it. The hope and heroism is exactly what I needed. The LutherCorp theme music was a very cool addition as well!
