MusicByTalin

I'm a recovering game programmer (I created the 1986 hit Amiga title, "The Faery Tale Adventure", and I've worked on many other games including The Sims 2). These days I work at Google, writing tools to help programmers do JavaScript development.My musical style can be described as instrumental synthpop with celtic, trance, and surf-rock influences. I tend to write mostly happy danceable music with complex intertwining melodies comprised of warm analog sounds frequently punctuated by "Scottish pennywhistle style" grace notes and trills (Listen to "The Tie-Dyed Jig" for an exuberant example of this). I've also written a fair bit of video game music.

    The Bright Lands

    The title refers to our human yearning for a better place, real or imaginary - whether that be heaven, an advanced technological future, the land of faerie, or even our memories of an idyllic childhood. It also can mean all of the real world places that we personally have not yet explored, and the joy that we might find there.
