last friday i got word that my time with Bungie was officially over 💔
this means i am now looking for work! i have experience in a variety of game audio disciplines in both indie & AAA. feel free to reach out & let me know of any open roles that i may be suited for 🎶
some of you might only know me for ambient, sound designy music from Manifold Garden, but i write jazz too! finally uploaded my Ceotaku live big band arrange of Marionette from Guilty Gear onto my bandcamp!
thank you
@_shunao
for the artwork once again~
happy launch day!
very fortunate to have been part of the destiny 2 music team. i helped edit music for cinematics and coordinate these very recording sessions on both this release + lightfall, and i feel fortunate to have worked w such ridiculously skilled and kind people.
✨ playstation is looking for a music intern! ✨
this is where i got my start in the industry, and while i didn't intern with this specific branch, the opportunity provided me so much firsthand experience & insight into the game audio industry.

throwback to the first song i wrote that made me pursue releasing personal music 👾
shoutout to bubby darkstar for making the music video! this one is called ‘mou!’ off my first EP ‘things i’ll never say’, available everywhere ˚⁎⁺˳✧༚
what’s up everyone it’s “hello i would like to score a badass scifi story like ghost in the shell” time again ˚⁎⁺˳✧༚
track 5 off my record from last year, ‘butt3rfly’
my turn to be thankful and sappy 🥲 been a long road, and there's plenty more to come, but damn is this team truly remarkable. in skill, dedication, and character.💫💚
hi! my name is laryssa, i'm a composer. i'm looking to collaborate with an illustrator/animator for a music video. it's a very aggressive, intense track that rages in japanese and english about misogyny.
let me know if that's something you'd be interested in~
RTs appreciated!
super grateful to
@audiogang
for awarding me audio breakout talent award!! super weird to see my face and name amongst so many folks I look up to and respect, thanks so much!!
i'm pretty sure i've officially worked on a project and written a soundtrack that will never see the light of day 😔 i was really excited to share it with you all, but legally there's nothing i can do to release my music separate from this IP. so a word of warning i guess -
i apologize that this isn’t the best photo & that the font is hard to see, but wow!!! this arrived today and i’m still so ...in shock of having been awarded this. thank you so so much.
(text reads G.A.N.G. 2019 breakout talent award)

looked at 3 great apts today! each with an equal amount of pros and cons 😵💫 while i’m a weirdo that actually enjoys moving, being unable to decide on which option is ideal / then worrying about the approval process has got me stressed …

doodling & trying some new techniques, like splicing up audio + hard panning! i like how it creates a push of momentum.
just dropping in to say thank you for all the love on the album 💗 i almost considered not releasing it last second out of anxiety so it’s a relief to see people are digging it 🥹
i've been dealing with some concerning health decline and finally scheduled an appointment with a specialist. weird blend of excited (for proper diagnosis 🤞) and extremely terrified 🙃

apparently i've been on twitter for 10 yrs... 10 yrs ago i wasn't in the best headspace. no clue what a daw was. loved videogame music but didn't know working in that industry was an option. and today... i'm sitting in on a recording session for my videogame music job. nutty.🥺
🎉Release Date - October 10th🎉
And to celebrate we've launched a new demo with updated content and new translations!

BREAKING: Halo Infinite finally reveals a stunning cinematic story trailer and reveals our first look at multiplayer which will both launch on together on Holiday 2021!
just thinking about all the harassment, sexism, or manipulation that hasn't been reported out of fear. thinking about the incidents that were reported, filed, taken to court, and yet money and power triumphed over truth.
i'm so tired.
one of my favorite levels and music implementation techniques in the game! each room has a different orchestration, and the further you progress, the more they stack for the full intensity of the song. (track is mise en abyme)
also hi, hello, i have a lot of new followers from manifold's release; my name is laryssa! i like to compose a lot of different styles of music for games. halloween is the best holiday. bagels are the best food. give me skies of arcadia remake. what else do people write in these
Did we already mention that
