If you enjoyed my Super Street Fighter IV ReMix “Time to Oil Up” (feat. Jillian Aversa), check out this video I recorded showing how it was done:

Also, if you have some free time this weekend and live in the Baltimore area, I’ll be attending Otakon starting tomorrow through Sunday. Otakon is one of the biggest anime conventions in the country, but it also has a lot of video game and music elements these days. I’ll be part of an OC ReMix panel on Saturday from 6-8pm. We’ve done 4 of these panels before and it’s always a blast, so come check us out!

One of my big projects over the last year has been the creation of a new sample library for Impact Soundworks. While Shreddage, my electric guitar library, has been a big hit, I’ve had an even bigger project in the works: Koto Nation: Classical Instruments of Japan! Check out some of the behind-the-scenes work on this project at the YouTube video below, and more info after the jump.

The remastered, enhanced remake of the classic LucasArts’ adventure game Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge is now available for demo or purchase on XBLA, PSN, Steam and iPhone/iPad! As I mentioned earlier this year, I was part of the team of composers and arrangers that worked on the completely reworked musical score for the game, which features literally hours of interactive music.

The reviews are just starting to trickle in, but so far reception of the game and its audio has been outstanding! One reviewer said the new music is “beautiful”, and another praised it as “alarmingly good.” We really put a lot of time into the music, staying true to the spirit of the original MIDIs while breathing life into the production and arrangement by using modern samples and live instrumentation.

Whether you’re a casual gamer or diehard fan of the original game, I’m sure you will enjoy MI2:SE and all it has to offer. If you already have it, post here and let me know what you think!
