I'm a music composer. I'll write you something lush. Something grand. Something otherworldly. Sometimes it'll be based on a meme, but I'll make you forget that.

Hey everybody!

I've decided to start doing weekly breakdown livestreams of my tunes, in which I'll go over arrangement, composition, instrumentation, mixing, and whatever pops into my head while I'm live. Today I did my cover of Lady Gaga's "Disease" and next week I'll be breaking down my original tune "The Darkside." Let me know if there's anything in particular you'd like to see broken down for future livestreams!

It turns out I am very burnt out.

You may notice (or maybe you didn't) that I haven't really been active as of late. While I would love to say I've been "working on something big" or whatever, the reality is that most days I don't even turn my computer on to write. I'm in a little bit of a creative rough patch that has turned into a general rough patch.

Work on my Cygnus...Vismund Cygnus cover continues at a very slow pace, but life has me exhausted and trying to figure out how to not feel tired by everything all the time again.

This all sounds much more dramatic than it is probably.

The point is: thanks to everyone who has commented on things recently and anyone waiting for the next thing. It'll come, I just don't know when at this time.

Hey everyone! I've been relatively slow on output lately. I'm in the process of working on a commission that I'm waiting to share until after a certain date and I have also been setting up a new computer and learning a new piece of songwriting software. After over 10 years using Reason I've decided to switch to Cubase Pro 13 and it's....quite different. And I am very very slow using it.

As such, it might be a bit before anything new comes out. But I'm excited to eventually get more things out to y'all and whatnot! Stay tuned! And thanks to everyone who has been patiently waiting for anything new.

Hey everyone! In case you're wondering where new pieces have been, the last one that I released is for a contest that doesn't allow uploads on YouTube, so you can find it here: skiomusic.com/gustavostopher/illenium-back-to-you-…

Hey y'all! I'm on a retreat/trip in Minnesota with very minimal gear so output has been slow/nonexistent. I appreciate everyone who's been listening and commenting and there'll be more come in the very near future.
