6 04 2010Been a while! I’ve been keeping busy with work, school and holidays. Here’s what’s what in my world atm:
• Birdie in Trouble was released for iPhone/iPod Touch! You can grab it here for cheap: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/birdie-in-trouble/id365007946?mt=8
• Blind Edge is coming along nicely. Got one track done and a few more sketched out. I’ve even brought out my guitar, believe it or not! I have a feeling this soundtrack’s going to be really, really, really good.
• Morsel’s next game is starting to take shape! I have the title track almost finished, it’s very tongue-in-cheek awesome. You’ll understand when you hear it and see the game but for now it’s a secret…
• IWADON was released online! This amazing tribute to video game composer Hiroyuki Iwatsuki features an impressive collection of arrangements from some of video game music’s finest individuals. I arranged Glacial Fortress from the XBLA game Omega Five and I’m quite happy with the result I must say! You can stream all the tracks at Iwadon.com and a full download will follow shortly.
• I have organized and hunted down cover art for all albums on my 10 000-track big iTunes library. I know you don’t care but it was so exhausting I have the right to brag a bit! The Growl-notifications look positively amazing 
• Keyboard launchers/utilities like QuickSilver or LaunchBar are the best things that ever happened to the computer. Seriously.
I’ve been using Launchbar for about 6 years. It’s one of those things that’s become so ingrained in my work flow that i fall apart without it!
Cheers

Yeah, I’m currently on QuickSilver but I might buy a LaunchBar license. The only thing that bothers me is the lack of triggers but I definitely don’t know about all the advanced LaunchBar functions yet so who knows.. maybe I’ll love it.
