//Foreword

2024 was one of my most prolific years as a composer and multimedia artist. It was marked by an increased volume of published audio as well as a breadth of contributions to various collaborative efforts across the globe. It was a year of personal reinvention, affirmation, and hard work. My natural stubbornness in pursuing my creative aspirations has brought new connections onto the table and solidified existing bonds.

What follows is a quick summary of the achievements reached this year alone bearing the FD name.

//Game Jam Contributions

Restless Wings // Tell a Story Jam

This was my first ever Visual Novel soundtrack made for 8 Bits to Infinity's "Tell a Story Jam", which ran through January 12-22. It was a blast scoring three atmospheric tracks for such a short, but thoughtful interactive story. I heartily recommend experiencing it yourself.

Listen to the soundtrack here: https://forgottendawn-vgm.bandcamp.com/album/restless-wings-ost


Dreamwalker ~ Altered Reveries // LSDJAM 2023

In late October 2023, I joined a team of passionate developers and artists who sought to create an atmospheric game in Unreal Engine 5 for the 2023 edition of the LSDJAM, a game jam that celebrates dreamlike experiences inspired by the cult game LSD: Dream Emulator. The humble jam project then evolved into a massive indie experience that is still being developed to this day. Although no official soundtrack release exists as of yet, I am furthering my contributions to this project as a composer and character designer. I hope you stay tuned in 2025 for more exciting updates.


Dinner is Served // Brackeys 2024.2

This fun little game was made for the Brackeys game jam that ran through September 8-15, based on the "Calm before the storm" theme. I was happy enough to continue collaborating with the STARDICE team, and our partnership resulted in this very short experience that I recommend checking out for yourself.


Museum Servivit // Game Off 2024

Just like last year (Two Sides), the STARDICE team pumped out another little masterpiece for Github's Game Off game jam throughout November, based on the theme "Secrets". We play as Angelo, a first-time museum night keeper tasked with a series of odd requests. Play the game on itch.io and stop to admire the incredible graphics performed by our talented art team.

//Video Game Soundtrack Works

Skyless Blind

Skyless Blind is an upcoming sci-fi exploration game set in a broken universe. I am excited to be the composer for this beautifully atmospheric project, and I hope you stay tuned for more updates in the upcoming year.

Yume 2kki

My contributions to the Yume 2kki soundtrack continue with the release of a multitude of new abstract worlds featuring my music. I recommend following the project and checking out the game for yourself.

//Forgotten Dawn Originals

Isolation Moods

Kicked off last year, this audio series provides a wealth of atmospheric tracks to enjoy in peaceful solitude. As the title suggests, it's a pensive exploration of introspective moods and transient atmospheres. As of this post, 2 full albums have been released worldwide on YouTube and various streaming platforms, and the series will continue in the foreseeable future.

Listen to Isolation Moods I and II on YouTube.

Lo-Fi Rooms

A multimedia art project originally devised as an evolution of my long-form ambiances. This project lulls you into a dreamlike journey across hand drawn spaces and a tonal gradient of Lo-Fi Ambient music. 2 full albums and two introductory videos currently populate this series. Each album is available on YouTube and popular streaming services like Spotify.

//Closing Remarks

With that said, as 2024 comes to a close, I am filled with gratitude towards the opportunities I earned throughout the year, and I look forward to keep carrying this trend to 2025.


Thanks to the generous souls who have supported and keep supporting my endeavors through Ko-fi, album purchases, and commissioned work; those who leave a word of feedback, encouragement, or enjoyment in the comment section; and a warm thanks to the friends and family members who remained close to me throughout the year, as well as the distant stars who populate my night sky. 🌌
