music portfolio
Welcome to my music and composition portfolio! I've got examples of music I've composed for various game projects, as well as a playlist of music released under my lofi side-project, Odokuro. I've worked on game projects that have allowed me to work within a range of styles utilising different instruments and textures, in particular featuring stringed instruments like basses, ukulele, acoustic and electric guitars, and soft synths and hardware sounds from a Teenage Engineering OP-1. As Odokuro, I've worked on commissions with a number of labels across the genre, had successful placements in high-profile playlists for lofi and chill beats, garnered millions of streams and even been lucky enough to have my music pressed to vinyl.
Bekka the Bokka
Here's a playlist of the music I composed for Bekka the Bokka. The ukulele was "Bekka's instrument", and I made a point of it carrying the main melodies, doubling up with an acoustic guitar. Bekka's leitmotif shows up across multiple tracks, tying the pieces together. It's broadly playful and bright like the game's aesthetic, but sincere, like the dedicated main character, Bekka. Many sounds were creating using Teenage Engineering's OP-1, and this creates the more moody and mystical atmosphere as Bekka ascends the mountain.
Odokuro
Above is a playlist of music from my lofi alter-ego, Odokuro. Across the range of styles from jazz hop to chill beats, thinking vocally when writing instrumental melodies, enhancing the track's atmosphere, and trying to push what I can do as an instrumentalist is what I try to achieve.
