Within classical roots lies the foundation of all music, allowing the eclectic variety of music you'll find above. Much of my music is influenced by 20th century modernist composer mindsets, but at the same time draws inspiration and influence in structure from both New-Romantic classical music and retro/current video game industry trends. Although most of what you hear above is pretty accessible, I'm a firm believer that the boundaries of music need to be pushed, just as indie games are currently pushing the video game industry. It's for this reason that many of my current personal projects have been very experimental, and that I'm continuously doing research into unique ideas in video game music.
While not directly related to writing music, I'm currently running a blog series titled "Pushing Boundaries in Video Game Music." This look into music is for composers and developers. It's a series meant to educate on ideas in music, to prep you better to talk with composers, and to give you new ideas about how to approach music from an introspective level.
Take a chance to learn. It can't hurt right?
