Memories of me playing this game as a child and now as an adult just rushed in love this song you did an awesome job.

Fantastic! I love those horns. Makes me really remember getting the SNES and this game.

I've told myself time and time again that writing a full score for a piece of media (Movie/TV/Game) would be the pinnacle of my music hobby. While my composition skills are definitely far from enough to do something massive like that, I do still enjoy writing to a theme/scene/idea in my head. 

All that being said, writing a score for a piece of literary fiction would've been the least expected thing on my list. Turns out, it's been one of the most enjoyable things I've done so far. 

Sovereign of Wrath is an original work of high-fantasy fiction by MadMaxine on both Scribblehub and Royal Road (see links below). I stumbled upon it a few weeks ago and ran through all 200-something chapters in under a week, absolutely hooked. The depth of the world and characters was superb and it almost immediately inspired me to try and write some music.

This specific piece focuses on the wedding in chapters 156 & 157, and it actually lines up pretty well with the writing if you start it playing at the beginning of the first paragraph. The section names and character themes are called out in the breakdown below - one of the most fun parts of writing this was thinking about the scene pacing in my head, as if they were scenes in a film.

Pixelmon OST: Unreleased

Battle Music 3

"Lava Caverns", Metroid Prime OST

A reorchestration of the Game of Thrones theme. I made it from scratch to test some new sounds and mainly practice. Hopefully I kept the feel of the original while adding my own spin to the piece. It's definitely a lot more brassy than the original but hopefully that works okay.

Game of Thrones (Re)Orchestra

An orchestration of the Main theme from Final Fantasy IV. I wanted to experiment with a mixture of something grandiose and fanfare-y that turned into something a little more string-filled and delicate. Hopefully I kept the feeling of the piece in this remake.

An original piece of music by Blake Robinson. A little ditty I wrote as a demo for Spitfire's Albion 3 to show that Iceni can pull off the softer side of the orchestra just as well as the loud. Everything in the piece is Albion 3, Iceni, from the Strings to the Brass to the Percussion. It's still on sale until the 4th of January over at http://spitfireaudio.com

Enjoy my music? You can find the first Synthetic Orchestra Originals album over on my Bandcamp! http://syntheticorchestra.com/originals1. It includes three extra tracks not available online (total of 16) and four Synthetic Orchestra wallpapers as a massive thank you to everyone that does buy it.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX

Opening / Pokémon Rescue Team Theme | Pokemon Mystery Dungeon DX

Just a little remake of Lullaby of Resembool from Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood's awesome soundtrack. I've been working on a sample library recently and not had any time to compose so I figured I'd have a quick play with it. Made in roughly an hour or so from start to finish.

Didn't think I'd have to put this, but ::Disclaimer:: This is not a demo of Sable and is not made to demonstrate it's capabilities - there will be plenty of demos on the Spitfire site showing what it can do. This is simply me playing about with a new toy I helped make to recreate a piece of music I love.

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood: Lullaby of Resembool (Re)Orchestra

Just a little remake of One is All, All is One from the Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood soundtrack. It's mostly faithful to the original but has little bits of Blake-Spin in it. It's a bit rough around the edges but I didn't want to spend too much time on it, so this is about 45 minutes of work.

I've been tinkering with music since I was a kid, composing tunes for fun. Nowadays, I mainly write orchestral scores for video games. Alongside this, with an extensive career in the games industry as a tools programmer I've now focused my skills on developing next-generation sample libraries and music software.
