Oscar Garvin

Currently working as in-house composer for Hypixel Studios on the voxel-sandbox RPG Hytale. I've attended GGJ since 2012. My style is sort of funky charming, but I can do epic orchestral as well, or whatever you want really. It's fun to experiment. I have a partner and together we're Valhalla Productions and we would like to write music for loads of people during Game Jam! We can output a lot in a short amount of time so it'll be fun. Music I'm inspired by is Nintendo stuff, Final Fantasy, basically japanese rpg music, the Elder Scrolls series and most epic fantasy film music and games in general. I play the drums so one of my strengths is rhythm, but I also like adding a progressive harmonic feel to the music since I have a background in jazz. My philosophy is themes and melodies over just "BGM". Melodies need to tell the story just as much as the visual. I like using a lot of detail in my music as well, but I can obviously be minimalistic if it's needed. See you at Game Jam!
