At the beginning of 2024, I found myself with a long list of especially impactful songs from video games that I wish to emulate. This realization was the catalyst for the Copycat Series, where I dive into the audio of games that have given me a significant boost of inspiration.
Starting with covers of memorable soundtrack moments, the inner workings of each consecutive game becomes more and more interesting to me. Writing new pieces with the intent of emulating the original composer and imitating the game’s sound design has been a natural step in understanding these works, and further hones my skills in game audio.
