Scotty's Sounds & Scores
Your game needs audio.
I make audio.
Let's chat.

Hi, I'm Scott
I am a Video Game Music Composer and Sound Designer with multiple projects to my name.
​
I'm based in Illinois, USA, but I have previously taken my talents abroad. I'm also a brass player, programmer, and (of course) gamer.
Why work with me?
Programming Background
Having a programming background sets me apart from other music and sound designers as I can directly implement and fine-tune interactive audio systems. This allows me to create more dynamic, responsive soundscapes that enhance gameplay. It also makes me a more versatile collaborator on multidisciplinary teams as I can bridge the gap between audio and programming.
Elevate Emotions
I write music that tells a story on its own; compositions that evoke emotion, hint at character arcs, and reflect the world even without visuals. My goal is always to enhance the player's emotional journey, creating themes and textures that resonate deeply and elevate the narrative experience. This storytelling-driven approach helps the music feel like an integral part of the game's identity.
Wide Variety
My versatility allows me to compose in nearly any musical genre and design sound for games ranging from cozy indie titles to intense action adventures. I adapt my style to match each game's unique tone and aesthetic, ensuring the audio always feels authentic and immersive. This flexibility makes me a strong asset for diverse projects and creative teams.
