Composition and Music Design for Video Games
My experience as both a composer and music designer shapes the way I approach music for video games. By combining composition skills with the full potential of music design tools, my goal is to craft unique soundtracks that fully embrace the interactive nature of this medium.
Over the past three years, I have had the opportunity to collaborate with Olivier Derivière on titles such as A Plague Tale: Requiem (Asobo, 2022), Steelrising (Spiders, 2022), and GreedFall II (Spiders, 2024).
Working alongside one of the industry's leading figures in game music composition and design has given me invaluable insights into cutting-edge systems and innovative approaches that are setting new standards in the field.
Unique Music
for Unique Projects
Always driven by the curiosity to explore new musical realms, my approach to music has evolved continuously over time. I have never felt tied to a single style or genre, but at the heart of my compositions is always the need to create something unique and meaningful for each project.
Classically trained as both a composer and a double bass player, I view music creation as an act of collaboration and experimentation. I always emphasize the value of working with live performers, as they bring a distinctiveness and depth to the music that no other element can replicate.
Motivated by the desire to avoid being labeled into only one genre, my work bridges classical with contemporary, acoustic with electronic, and tradition with innovation.
