“We needed a fairly unique score for our trailer. Jesse’s intuition and flexibility helped us hit the mark in a quick span of time. In the end his music really amplified the visuals we’d spent so much work on. Would definitely work with him again.
Kylan Coats, Crispy Creative (A Long Journey to an Uncertain End)
"Jesse is a talented composer, and a delight to work with. From the beginning to the end of our contract, he worked diligently and was quick to respond to all my questions. All while being extremely kind and professional. I was amazed at how well he was able to nail the vibe I wanted for my game! And even when it wasn’t perfect, he was more than happy to make precise changes, and chisel away until it was. I hope to work with him again someday, and couldn’t recommend Jesse more as a composer."
Christopher Smith, Power Level

His work has been crucial to my project, as it allowed me to focus on providing a better gameplay experience without having to worry about a quality soundtrack."
