I'm in the (messy) process of bringing my two Bandcamp pages together - all my music can now be found on: ohaas.bandcamp.com IMPORTANT: If you bought my last album please DM me - I'll send you a new code to re-add it to your library. The old album page for my last album will eventually be deleted.

My biggest tutorial yet is now online! Talking about how I approached ambiences in Oddsparks & generally ways that I think can help designing nice ambiences. I'm showing some technical setups in #unrealengine / #metasounds but also discuss some philosophical aspects of it. youtu.be/_z6BdYlAgPY

In my newest tutorial I'm going into how I did the dynamic engine sound system for Emergency Protocol Override in FMOD (and how you can approach engine sounds in FMOD in general): youtu.be/2O4PgEhUQ-o

Between the now official closing of Massive Miniteam and our game #oddsparks being nominated for tonight's Deutscher Enwicklerpreis (category 'Graphics'), I thought it might be a good time to post another clip with music bits from the game. This time: Music from the 'Glacial Plateau'

I did another tutorial! This time I'm talking about how to do smooth music transitions when setting up a music player system with #ue5 #metasounds. This includes picking random music variations for each section&bringing over the reverb tail when moving to the next sections. youtu.be/ZBAy0UwlAdE

Back when studying at the Cologne Game Lab I developed this little game together with Sebastian Stricker in 2019 - ' I SAW', an adaptation of the poem 'Howl' from Allen Ginsberg. The game can still be played for free on Itch: savespace.itch.io/i-saw

5+ years before Oddsparks I already worked on audio for another automation game (with a very different tone though): Emergency Protocol Override was the ambitious prototype of @farry1.bsky.social, Sebastian Stricker&myself we submitted as the practical part of our MA-thesis at the Cologne Game Lab.

All my albums (except 'Stasis' because it's a label release) are 'name your own price' on Bandcamp for the time being - might change it again at some point but we'll see :) Also unlimited listens, so no 'it's time to open your wallet' popup at any time. aporie.bandcamp.com
