my name is Dane!

i am inspired by the music of Fez lately, The role music plays in puzzle games is fascinating. I have heard somewhere that listening to classical music or jazz heightens the listeners brain activity, and i think this is important to keep in mind when choosing music for a game. I love the moments when i'm playing fez or Zelda, Mario, the Sims, Tetris; and i find myself not only contemplating the tasks of the level but doing that while simultaneously bobbing my head or humming a melody. games are so much more enjoyable with well written music! i love putting a little bit of complexity into every piece of music that i do, not in an overpowering way, but in a way that makes the music appeal to both; seasoned music lovers, and the average gamer.
