My journey with music:
Music has always changed the way I think about the world. When I watched movies, shows, or other media, I found myself paying close attention not just to what was happening on screen, but to how a particular moment made me feel. Over time, that sensitivity led me to explore a wide range of genres and styles. I started with electronic music, then branched out into game soundtracks from series like Undertale, Terraria, and Half-Life. A large part of my early music taste was built on the sound of video games, and those songs had a lasting impact on me. They did more than just entertain me. They inspired me to create something of my own.
That inspiration eventually pushed me to start making music myself. I picked up a trial version of FL Studio and began experimenting, learning by doing and gradually developing my skills. What began as curiosity turned into a real creative path, and before long I had the chance to grow into a freelance game composer. Since then, I have worked with many other musicians and contributed to a variety of projects, each one teaching me something new and helping me improve as an artist.
Even so, I have come to realize that making music only for video games can feel limiting. Earlier this year, I decided to dive back into guitar and begin creating music for a standalone medium. That step has opened up new creative possibilities for me and given me a fresh way to express ideas that go beyond games alone.
