Hi, I’m Felix and I love playing games & instruments 🎮 🎶

You’ll hear my music 🎹 & SFX 🔉 most recently in:

✨ Closer the Distance 🎹
❄️ Wildfrost 🔉
🚂 Unrailed 1 (+2 👀) 🎹 🔉(together with @mathildesound.bsky.social 💚)

You see myself, time traveled standing in front of the Gamescom entry in 2024.

OK that is weird. I heard that people were getting music taken down because of „bot-generated playlists“, which they never created themselves.

Hmm hopefully you’re more lucky now 🤞
I think in any case, it’s good to save the ISRC codes for such cases in future. Might help with keeping the streams!

Oh glad to hear that! Can I ask, if your previous distributor told you any reason why the music has been removed?

Wie geht das (Arbeits-)Leben eigentlich weiter, wenn direkt das erste Spiel ein Superhit ist? Genau das habe ich Zwi Zausch gefragt, Mitgründer von Toukana Interactive und Entwickler von Dorfromantik. War schön, ehrlich und tief, wie ein Rotwein:

Der Dorfromantik-Macher über das Leben nach dem Superhit: OK COOL trifft Zwi Zausch - OK COOL

Vorneweg: Zwi Zausch ist natürlich nicht der alleinige Entwickler von Dorfromantik, sondern Teil eines vierköpfigen Teams, die 2021 mit dem Cozy-Puzzler einen gigantischen Erfolg abfeiern durften. In ...

I made art for a video game where you make art! 🤯

If you’re at #Polaris in Hamburg this weekend, stop by @studiomonoblok.bsky.social in the Indie area to check out their wonderful game "Earthlings"
- and while you're there (if it’s not too loud around the booth 😅) enjoy some of my sounds 💙

A week ago I had the pleasure of being interviewed by @crizko.bsky.social 🎙️

We talked (in German 🇩🇪) about my work as a sound designer & music composer for video games 🎶 🎮 .. and about pizza 🍍🤷🍕

➡️ Danke dir für das nette Gespräch und die guten Fragen! Hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht 🙌

crizko @crizko.bsky.social · Sep 12

Ich hab mit @felixbarbarino.bsky.social darüber sprechen können, wie eigentlich Sound & Musik in Videospielen entsteht! Wie arbeitet man da? Hat man Freiheiten? Wie sieht der Alltag aus?
Vielen Dank für die Einblicke, Felix.🙏
