Expand is a single player video game in which players explore a circular labyrinth constructed as an abstract black and white geometric landscape. Players must avoid getting squashed as the labyrinth twists, stretches and reveals itself, always responding to the players actions and movements.

Expand OST: "Follow Me"

Recently I was asked to write the music for Taste Creative’s latest video. For this, I had the opportunity to compose the music during preproduction. They hadn’t even begun shooting the video until after the music was written. This allowed me to really focus on the music and to bring it to it’s fullest potential.
