Rayman Origins has been released and has gotten great reviews. The soundtrack CD, music by Billy Martin and Christophe Heral, is included in the special Collector's Edition of the game. Here are some preview videos of the game and the music:
January 2012 New Fantasyland
I've been orchestrating all of the music for a new Disney World attraction. The Fantasyland area of the park is being expanded to nearly double its original size. The music is all being recorded here in Los Angeles.
June 2011 Rayman Origins
I've been writing for Rayman! I am thrilled that Ubisoft is re-embracing Rayman as an unofficial mascot and giving him a game without the Raving Rabbids. Rayman was the star of the first Ubisoft release in 1995. Watch the gameplay demo from the E3 Ubisoft press conference. The score in the demo is mostly mine except for the banjo music. It includes my arrangement of the original Tetris theme.
Game Informer says, "Spoiler: It looks really, really fun."
Feb 2011 Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion
I've been busy writing all of the music for this game. It will feature a large cast of popular characters from Cartoon Network’s original programming.

Sept 2009Toy Story Mania!
Toy Story Mania! was released today, September 15th, exclusively on the Nintendo Wii™. Toy Story Mania! has rapid fire shooting galleries and minigames while featuring the iconic characters and humor from the popular Disney/Pixar Toy Story franchise. My music has been associated with Toy Story since winning the 2002 G.A.N.G Award for the score to the PC game Disney/Pixar Learning 2nd & 3rd Grade w/Buzz Lightyear.
It was great to revisit the Toy Story world again. You can see and hear the opening cinematic for the game at the Papaya website.

This Wii Playzone title is being released in November. Composer Tom Salta and I created all of the music for this Ubisoft game.
Movie Games invites players into a brand new theme park that has just opened right next to their house. There are 20 movie-themed mini-games in 5 different movie universes rendered in stylish cartoon style: Science-Fiction, Pirates, Spy Action, Jungle Adventure and Haunted Mansion.
Oct 2008Petz Sports
I recently finished the score for the upcoming Ubisoft game, Petz Sports. Dogz 2008 will be available exclusively on the Wii™ home video game system from Nintendo.
A trailer for the game featuring my theme music is available at the Petz Press Portal. The gameplay really lends itself to an upbeat, rhythm-section oriented approach for the music. I really enjoyed working with Ubisoft again on this title.
