🧝🏼‍♀️🌟The Celestials Armada have finally arrived🪐 The Celestials, they are a race of high-tech interstellar travelers that stretches back to the origin of the universe. They are coming to earth to challenge the demonic Infernal Host. 🎵 In the music, I want to give a hint of humanity as well as future technology. We want to create a unique voice for the faction. The voice has to be organic as well as electronic, so I requested a Bulgarian type of singing, which uses chest tone without vibrato. Organs, synths, and a ton of world instruments are used to hint their long history. The goal is to create a unique soundscape for this crystalline, immortal and intimidating faction. Details in video. 🎥 I can’t be more thankful for the BTS interview video from Frost Giant. Thank you Alex @alexbrandon for the trust, I hope to bring my best to the team and the most promising work. 🎙️Please swipe to check out my wonderful collaborators, Michael and Ayana. @lyon_michael_gossard @ayanahaviv Michael, you are a wonderful mixing engineer, team player and friend. I can’t express how thankful I am for having you in the project, and I look forward to achieving more with you in the future. Please check out Michael’s amazing “Studio Q”! Ayana, thank you so much for your singing, it has added a lot to my music. ⛄️ Chris Culp did magic for the video editing and I can’t imagine how many hours he put into organizing the footage. So much respect🫡 Frost Giant is a studio like a family. This dream project as I have gained so much creative musical satisfaction. Thank you Cara, Tim, Timmy, Gerald and many more...Lastly, I would love to give special thanks to wonderful composers @jocelynscofield Jocelyn and Jeremy @jeremyearnestmusic , who has contributed their singing in the demo process. I couldn’t make it without you my friends. Also production feedbacks & support from @ishaan_tgi ☄️Stromgate releasing on Steam EA on August 13. #worldsoundtrackawards #stormgate #starcraft2 #starcraft #blizzard #blizzardentertainment #frostgiantstudios #warcraft #rtsgames #esports #gamemusic #gdc2024 #gameawards #gamesoundcon #redalert #gameaudio @theawfc @composersdiversitycollective

I am beyond excitement to announce my upcoming project for the new RTS game “Stormgate”. I am honored to be the lead composer for the upcoming unannounced faction, along with legendary composer Tracy W. Bush (StarCraft, WarCraft III, World of WarCraft) and Frank Klepacki @frank_klepacki (Red Alert3, Command & Conquer, Dune II), for the Vanguard and Infernal factions respectively. Stormgate is new RTS founded by ex-StarCraft II & WarCraft II developers @ Frost Giant Studios. It is my first time playing RTS game, and it definitely opened a new world for me. It is another 10 years for RTS games! Stormgate is now on closed beta and will be officially launched on Steam soon. Stay tuned for the exciting news! A big thank you to Alex Brandon for the trust, and bringing me onto this wonderful project. I have so much respect for you! @alexbrandon It’s GDC week, and hope to meet everyone in San Francisco 🙂 很高興能為實時戰略遊戲「風暴之門」作曲,能與紅色警戒/魔獸爭霸/C&C的作曲家在同一個團隊,十分榮幸,4月會正式宣布新的派系。 @frostgiantstudios @playstormgate #stormgate #stormgate2023 #starcraft #warcraft #worldofwarcraft #rtsgame #redalert #gamecomposer #gamedeveloperconference #gdc #gamedev #blizzard

Our film Dr. Sam screened at the TCL Chinese Theatre!! 🎬✨ I still remember the shock of seeing a film I am going to score with Alec Baldwin and Lucie Arnaz in it. Composed some jazzy big band music for this one 🎷🎺🥁 Huge thank you to Raji for such a heartwarming story, Danielle for the incredibly fun directing, and our amazing cast and team who made this all possible. Alec came onto this project in such a meaningful way. As Raji’s mentor from NYU, he read the script, really believed in it, and ended up joining the film because of that connection. And Lucie… beyond being a wonderful actress and singer, she carries something really special with her. Her parents, Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, created I Love Lucy and founded Desilu Productions—a show that defined an era of television and helped shape what became possible at Paramount and beyond. Having that kind of legacy quietly present in our “star-driven” short means a lot. This one really stays with me. Dr. Sam will always have a special place in my heart ❤️ @drsamfilm @cinequestorg @thebhfilmfest @theawfc @composersdiversitycollective @uscscreenscoring @_the_scl #filmcomposer #hollywood #paramount #luciearnaz #alecbaldwin

Preview of the haunting score for “He Gets What He Wants” composed by the talented @weng_composer “The goal with the music was very simple, to make the audience feel that something unholy is present, even when nothing is happening on the screen” Her music truly makes this a horror film 🎶 #horrorshortfilm #horrormusic #composer #filmcomposer #horrormovie

2025: thanks for the fancy year! Work recap showing 40% of actual life, 10 jobs at a time again. Thankful for everyone who trusted and worked with me I’ve learned that every tiny dot became part of the bigger picture. Everything happens for a reason. Some hellos, some goodbyes. Here’s to 2026: less busy, more present. And more work addiction 🤍Best is yet to come! #composer #filmcomposer #gamecomposer #losangeles #hollywood

In three words: “It was fantastic.” 🤍 Four composers from @TheAWFC premiered their own music pieces at our Los Angeles studio and their reactions were priceless. Here’s to spreading the word about spatial audio’s capabilities. 🔊 #TheArtOfSound #WomenComposers #FilmComposers #ImmersiveSound #SurroundSound #SoundDesign #ComposingMusic
