hey there !!

i'm alex, aka aj, a 20 year old composer and sound designer from naarm (melbourne), australia.

he/him.

i mainly write music for games, of which i've worked on 20+ projects, including a winner of the 2020 GMTK game jam, and a rom which can be (and has been !!) played on a real gameboy. i have a love for adaptive audio that grows with the gameplay, such as the map track from nate wiesel's flowerdrops, which unfolds as the player unlocks more levels, or the music from dtmark's chess wars, which switches from chillwave to a metal version of the same track when the player enters combat.

i also write and produce alt pop with singers from across the country and the world, releasing 2 albums and a small handfull of singles - most of which feature vocals from florence june.

although my formal music training is in jazz guitar, since i started writing my own music, ive learned bass, keys, trumpet, drums, and most recently, mandolin. i work mainly in ableton live 10, but i am also extremely familiar with musescore for traditional arranging/engraving, as well as openMPT for any projects that require a tracker.
