Hi there everyone,

It's been a while (at least a month) since I posted any news!
This post is to share the amazing work of Annick Brémault aka Aloysius Bell on this song "Your Heart is Feathers".
I engineered the audio recordings for the video and it was done all live, of the floor in only 8 inputs (listed below) and it was mixed by my friend Sacha Daoud which also produced this version of the song.
I hope you enjoy it!

All preamps mentioned are Unison emulations running out of an Apollo 8p

Today is a special day:
1 - It's my birthday
2 - Riot released the song that I mixed for their new Champion on League Of Legends.

The music was written and recorded by Brian D'Oliveira here at La Hacienda Creative, where I also mixed and mastered it.

Enjoy it!

A few months ago I mixed a song written and performed by Brian D'Oliveira for the game "Honor Of Kings" from Chinese developer Tencent.
The song is the main theme for the character named Shangguan.
I couldn't find the full song available anywhere, but you can listen to a quick excerpt here.

Enjoy!

I totally forgot to check if the music for the 9th season of "For Honor" was out, and today I found a so-so rip on Youtube.
Music was composed by Luc St-Pierre and mixed by yours truly ;)
Enjoy!

 

A couple of weeks ago I finished mastering the EP Beta Monster from Montreal's Mole Machine.
Check out the exclusive release (with pre-ordering information) here

A few weeks ago I had a very nice chat with Audio Media Magazine and we talked about the process of working on such a long and demanding project like "Shadow Of The Tomb Raider".

A few months ago (end of June 2018 to be exact) I recorded the Montreal based band "The Leftovers" live at La Hacienda Creative using mostly cheap microphones (the only expensive mic was the AEA R88 for overheads and a U87 for vocals) and Universal Audio Apollo interfaces.

A couple of weeks ago I had a quick chat with Ramon Prates for Pocilga's podcast "Varacast" .
We are speaking Portuguese, so... if you understand it, please have some fun listening us talk about my career with video game music in Montreal, Canada.

When you have to do whatever it takes to be able to deliver the best possible result on a very small amount of time

Let me tell you a quick story:  

October 2012 I started working with Brian on the Papo & Yo original soundtrack.  

This was his first video-game project and it was as close as I’ve ever been to anything related to soundtracks or video game music.  

Jump a few months ahead, (about summer 2013) and the Tomb Raider reboot was released.  
After playing the game I told Brian: “Dude, I can totally see you working in a Tomb Raider game!!”  
A couple years later, guess which project Brian was invited to pitch to? Yep… you guessed it right… FUCKING TOMB RAIDER!!!!!!!!!
