Demo Tracks
About me
I'm a music composer / producer (born in Brazil, 1984), specialized in Midi/VST (virtual instruments) and sample libraries, with a focus for creating video-game OSTs.
I'm able to create music of most styles, but my strengths are orchestral and modern/oldschool/hybrid game music. I'm partial to jRPGs or games that benefit from more distinct (non-generic) soundtracks.
My preference is being able to play the role of lead musician / music producer, and bringing my own ideas to the project when it comes to music; but I don't oppose to following directions if the creators already have a specific sound in mind.
As a sidenote, I'm also a software developer with some knowledge of game development, but my experience of 10+ years working at software companies has been mostly C#, web, mobile and apps (anything other than games). You can find more details about my technology skills on my linkedin page.
Feel free to listen to some of my demos on this page!
Current Availability
Currently available for freelancer gigs (full time).
Pricing / Methodology
For the creation of production-ready music, the starting point is $200 per minute of music with a game-exclusivity license agreement.
* Game-exclusivity license: I (the composer) retain the rights to the music, and you retain an exclusive license to use it in your game (including DLC, patches, expansion, ports, promotional content such as videos, etc), as well as being able to sublicense it to use in any of your future games, or games from a 3rd party that includes your IP (crossovers), without needing my approval. I still have the right to publish the music elsewhere (such as for portfolio / self promotion reason) and handle the official OST release (which includes platforms such as spotify and youtube, using the game's name, logo and other key art). Different kinds of licensing can be discussed and negotiated as needed.
My services include:
- Brainstorming with development/artistic team in order to create something cohesive
- Ability to create sketches to test in-game before commiting to an idea
- Ability to work with programming tools for dynamic music if needed (making use of my background as a software developer)
- Ability to deliver production-ready tracks (mastering) mantaining proper/cohesive levels across the soundtrack (LUFS)
- Ability to work fast and make fast changes when needed (several years of experience with my DAW of choice, use of templates, proficiency with midi keyboard, etc)

DISCLAIMER: All the music on this site was created and produced by me. I work with DAWs (midi sequencing), Sample Libraries and VSTs, and don't use generative AI in my music, nor do I create music using full-bar "loops". Everything, from the rhythms to the melodies, are created note by note through midi sequencing, or ocasionally through midi FXs such as arpeggiators.
