12 January: New song

recently I've been doing a lot of remixes for folks like anosou, virt and the Hyperduck crew. Since it's pretty fresh stuff (dig it? Daddy-o?), I decided to put Hyperduck's up on this site as a demo (although of course, you can click on any of those links to check the others). Just scroll on down to Portfolio and check it out!

25 November: Indie Game Music Bundle

I've teamed up with a bunch of game composers to release a special Black Friday sale. 10 full albums for only $1! Aside from my Yogurtbox album, it contains Souleye, BigGiantCircles, virt, and many others. And if you pay over $10, you get another 7 albums. Check it out!

30 September: Songs for the Cure '11: Reiki

I was featured on Songs for the Cure, which is a yearly collection of music from various artists. It is also a charity drive for cancer research, so please listen, and donate if you can. Official page.
About
Surasshu Sound logo

Welcome! I'm surasshu, and I'm a composer and sound designer, specialized in games. Even as a kid I was fascinated by games and their peculiar bleepy music. At age 12, a friend gave me a tracker on a floppy diskette and jump-started my composing career.

I've come a long way since then with many titles under my belt, having worked for Amaze Entertainment, Capcom, EA, and more. I even got a Master of Arts studying game music. Those experiences changed me profoundly, but the love for game audio is still the same as when I was in elementary school.

Anyway, have a look around my portfolio, listen to some tracks, and by all means contact me if you're looking for quality, timely deliveries, and a passion for games.
