I am a composer for media, primarily focusing on video games, films, and occasionally concert hall and audio dramas. It doesn’t stop there, so feel free to reach out if you want to have a conversation!
Picked up On Clouds after over a decade of loyalty to a different athletic shoe brand

I actually read a book about nantucket whaling, specifically the whaleship called the Essex. It was rammed by a whale and left them on rowboats with makeshift sails 3,000 miles west of south america, where the offshore grounds with more sperm whales were. that story would later inspire herman melville to write the novel moby dick (and that was at first a commercial failure and was out of print by the time the author died). only a few survived
I digress
Then called Charles Island, now titled Floreana Island, they were hunting tortoises around 1820, about a decade before Darwin visited. Chappel was the prankster of the crew, and he decided to light a small fire as a joke, in the height of the dry season. It burned out out of control, and by the time the crew had all gotten back to the Essex, the entire island was burning. It killed thousands and thousands of animals and even drove a few species to extinction.
everyone was upset, but Chappel didn’t admit to it until the whale fucked up their ship. by then they had a bigger thing to worry about: survival.
Book: In the Heart of the Sea (not providing a pdf, check it out at the library or buy it if you want to. it’s a great read)
Day 3 of working on my piece for woodwind ensemble! The piece in its entirety revolves around a neat little motif.
I wrote this today, and so far it's my favorite part!
I never forget how much fun I had with this
Hasn't even been a month and someone has already modded Thomas the Tank Engine into Underspace.
We've been doing tons of updates to Underspace, in case you missed it, and more are coming this Saturday.
This includes things like lots of new UI QoL stuff, as well as new effects for collecting cargo. Because we want you to know you're basically flying a wizard's staff with some rockets attached.
Apologies if this has been answered before on your tumblr or elsewhere, but how do you feel about the use of your music in video essays on YouTube (with credit, obviously) or similar YouTube projects?
that's fine 🙂 just tag @orchestorm on youtube
Then I asked my health enthusiast sister why I craved salt and cheese when I came over from my active side hustle every day. She said I needed water and protein.
For a few days, I still craved pizza. But today, I came home craving crackers with Vermont cheddar cheese. I'm also drinking chilled water more frequently.
I feel a lot better, and I increasingly look better, too.

Searched "italian" on the whole foods app, hoping to find bread. after a few misclicks, I decided it was Italian dinner night! Italian bread, Italian sausage, Italian sauce, Italian soda, garlic butter, and tortellini.
Without question, my best meal so far on my cooking journey
opened tumblr to over 100 notifications. i can't remember the last time that happened
