Turns out when you're normally developing by yourself at home, it's actually really nice to meet other people and just talk 😅♥️

G-O-O-S-E-B-U-M-P-S, I had goosebumps this morning 😭❤️
Got such lovely compliments for the recording upon hand-in that I can now reveal I've recorded a smol song for Wax Heads! As someone who gave up music for a proper job (I know, don't talk to me), singing on a game makes me feel like Hikaru Utada for Kingdom Hearts

This week’s Creative Bloq indie spotlight is Skate Story, which is as much about evoking the vibe of skating in New York City at night as it is about a demon made of glass trying to escape the Underworld by eating the Moon www.creativebloq.com/3d/video-gam...
This psychedelic skateboarding game is a surreal, glassy slice of escapism
How years of experimentation shaped the visual design of Skate Story.

Wouldn't it be something if we shared another trailer about Wax Heads today...?
That would sure be something...
Yep.
Yep, would be pretty cool I think.

I first asked Gina about Wax Heads OST, she said she didn't really write lyrics or play guitar...
(plan was I'd try and do those...LOL)
BUT then Gina actually wrote nearly ALL the lyrics, learnt guitar and wrote INSANELY good songs!! So I am telling you:
YOU.ARE.NOT.READY FOR THIS SOUNDTRACK!!😭😭😭

a fun lil thing about the Wax Heads soundtrack is that it kinda maps out my guitar journey
when i started working on this song i was working on octaves and the lil 'da-da-da' down up down thing in my lessons which is why they're heavily featured lol

here's a snippet of one of the last songs i've made for Wax Heads!!!
it's about something i'm super passionate about -- music not having to be ✨perfect✨ and being a thing of joy and expression and bringing people together
so i hope you enjoy my perfectly imperfect rendition 😌
