Kastlevania: A Capstone Project
Kastlevania is a re-composed soundtrack for the 1987 U.S. Nintendo Entertainment System game, Castlevania. The collection of compositions are presented via a composite video using game play footage paired with the new soundtrack providing a seamless viewing experience as if the new soundtrack had shipped with the original game.
As the capstone project to complete the requirements for my Master of Music: Music Technology (MMMT) degree at Southern Utah University, this project was intended to display the skills and abilities required for video game music composition, with respect to genre, game storyline, and visual aesthetic.

some details...
I primarily make Cinematic Hip-Hop, Downtempo, and game music that often revolves around a theme or other storytelling aspect — specializing in compositions that are electronic in nature with a heavy hip-hop influence. My compositions carry a dark, melodic sound which often ventures into aggressive and sinister and are electronic in nature with a heavy hip-hop influence, combined with a generous helping of vocal harmony and some classical elements sprinkled throughout.
I've spent many years on the music I love making. I have a BS in Media Arts & Animation and a master's degree in Music Technology. Professionally, I've worked as a podcast professional, composer, voice over talent, and digital content manager. Aside from my solo projects, I'm the founding member of the hip-hop trio, Preytorians. I have a sizable catalog of self-released albums, both vocal and instrumental. My most recognized collection of releases include a sci-fi epic presented via a trilogy of story-based albums, two successfully funded crowd-funding campaigns, & EPs based on extended stories of supporting characters.
My work is eclectic as evidenced by my personal catalog's cover song, hip-hop, instrumental, & chiptune releases. I create unique compositions and color outside the lines audibly.
