Seems I’ve been able to reclaim weekends to just being weekends without guilt of being unproductive or whatever. Refreshing #gamedev #composer #gameaudio

Just put together a reel with sound design and music excerpts from BLOCKLORDS. Really happy with it and proud of the work we’ve done on it. #gamedev #sounddesign #gamemusic #strategy play.reelcrafter.com/nickbulavin/...

After working a lot in February feeling quite fatigued, but the good thing is the next couple of days are for prepping releases and such, which is just fun to do. Releasing bits of soundtrack alongside the game #gamedev #composer #music

Going to see The Brutalist now. Don’t know if I’ll be any wiser after it, but certainly noticeably older. Super excited for a longer film with intermission. #filmsky

Correctly and comfortably engraved parts make up 65-70% of a studio session’s success rate. It doesn’t matter how good the music is if the musicians spend the entire session trying to decipher what you’ve put on the page. Care for your musicians, and they will care for you!

So fun to be prepping a game for release. It works, then it doesn’t, then it gets fixed, then something else breaks. Exhilarating stuff #gamedev #music #FMOD #sounddesign

Just prepped mixing projects on 4 different tracks. 3 of them to add to the battle system we’re developing in #FMOD The other one is probably the best piece of music I’ve ever written. Totally atypical for me and therefore so fun. Can’t wait to share #gamedev #composer #music

Recently went over my composer #reel with the help of a mentor. Brutally cutting out some stuff as well as changing the order. It feels pretty good. Can’t wait to add the most recent track I’m in the process of finishing now #gamedev #composer play.reelcrafter.com/nickbulavin/...

Mix prep always feels very satisfying. I get to color the tracks and send them off for a skilled set of ears to make it absolutely slap #gamedev #music #composer

As a long-time Dylan fan, I enjoyed The Complete Unknown quite a bit. Good film. And it’s nice to hear those tunes too #fiilmsky

Just started practicing sight reading rhythm. It’s really tricky beyond the basics, but should make it easier to read and follow scores down the line #music #gamedev #composer

Despite all the crazy stuff going I’m somehow optimistic. Generally, anyway. There are moments of doubt and dips, but the trajectory is positive and took a long while to get here. This shows me that extrinsic noise is there to keep the cortisol levels high, but there’s always a silver lining

Mixing on laptop speakers is an *interesting exercise. It’s been over two month away from the studio, but the work doesn’t stop #gamedev #composition #musicproduction
