Over a decade after the release of my free 8bit album - which has been used in thousands of games, projects, and videos - I'm finally beginning my next album! 
Inspired by the beauty of soundtracks like Celeste, Hollow Night, and Minecraft, this album will be made up of wistful melodies, lush orchestral arrangements, and haunting piano tunes.

Prologue

We're all under the stars

I’m Eric Skiff, and I’ve written the first open-source Chrismas song, "Be My Mrs Claus"

I’m sharing this song with the world and starting a movement to Rewrite Christmas 2020.

Together we’re going to create a new Christmas canon, and capture the true, giving spirit of the holidays.

I’ve got grand ambitions for this movement, and I’ll need a LOT of help on the way.

To learn the art of creating mass-popular media, I’ll be interviewing anyone who will talk to me to learn how songs break through, how commercials get made, and how you pitch great artists as an unknown. 

I’ll need your help, and I’m going to take you along on the ride, in the form of audio interviews and regular update emails. This will be a fantastic learning adventure, and I can’t wait to see where it takes us!

Be My Mrs Claus - Demo

An epic piano melody meets retro synth arpeggiations.
An invocation for beginnings, hope, and grand adventures.
