Developer: Austin Oblouk, Playsaurus Release Date: October 21st 2021 Platforms: PC, Steam, Mobile (Late 2021) Website:https://mrmine.com/
Mr. Mine is an idle, mining game created by Austin Oblouk of Playsaurus. In the game, the player controls a mining operation that includes a drilling machine, mine workers, an oil rig and other assets that contribute to one drilling further toward the Earth’s core. Along the way, one may collect raw materials to enhance equipment, hire mining managers, collect treasures, encounter enemies, and more.
Playsaurus hired me to compose a unique soundtrack for their extensive gameplay. The music needed to be ambient enough to sit in the background, but also continually loop without becoming an ear sore to the listener. After nearly a dozen iterations, I delivered a 5+ minute, pleasing, harmonious and ambient soundtrack. Hopefully it’s one for the ages.
Special thanks to Austin at Playsaurus for providing me the opportunity to work on this game. It was a blast and I cannot wait to work on the next one!

Production: Creeping Death Producer: Samfear Productions Website:https://samfear.com/ Wrapped: October 2021 Scheduled Release: October 2022
Creeping Death is a full length film based on the mythology and lore behind Halloween. I was hired by Director, Matt Sampere as the acting production sound mixer for the shoot.
Production took place at various locations in Central NY and involved 19 days of shooting in barns, pumpkin patches, corns fields, and various homes. Many of these locations provided challenges for capturing premium audio, but we tackled them with a couple of booms, wireless lavalier mics, a premium sound recorder and a little sweat.
The project is moving into post-production in November 2021. As an independent production, completion funds are still needed for special effects, foley, dialogue replacement (ADR), music composition, and more.
Arcade Runner is a fast paced minimal style game with a gloriously 80’s soundtrack. Help Cubie run and jump his way to safety, but watch out for those dastardly enemies along the way.

HoloKart is an augmented reality (AR) racing game prototype focused on providing consumers with a real-life simulation of Super Mario Kart. The prototype pairs go-karts and Microsoft’s HoloLens.
In the game, players wearing Hololens reality headsets and drive around a live go-kart track. They can pick up virtual items and use them enhance their own karts or to slow the progress of competing racers.

My piece, “Brahmster’s Inc” was placed on a “The Walking Dead” reunion episode. The episode was run on US television on the AMC network and featured my song at the 1m 3s mark. The music serves as a sound bed while the boys are eating traditional tea and crumpets.
