I can already foresee the reminder of this post that "x amount of years ago you shared this" and being all nostalgic and reminiscent of my very first interview to go live, as well as the debut of my new project where I'll be talking with people from the industry that I've worked with over the years and discuss many cool topics.
And my very first guest is Andrejs Kļaviņš!! Co-founder of Color Gray Games and co-creator of The Case of Golden Idol video game! Which just shipped its 2nd DLC "The Lemurian Vampire" and I had the huge honor composing music for.
Andrejs is one of the coolest, humble, and hard-working people in the industry, a rising star in game dev arena in my opinion, and that I had the pleasure to record this interview with back in November of 2022. (yes... it took me almost a year to put it together, due to my ever-changing living situation, but I am so happy and excited to finally share this with you!)
We talked about my process of music production, the relationship between game developer and composer, shared thoughts on favorite tracks from the Golden Idol, many behind the scenes & stories behind the production of the game, and lots of other cool stuff!
Enjoy!

Very grateful to Color Gray Games for allowing me to become part of the unique journey they're creating for fellow detective gamers and mystery solving appreciators out there.. the 2nd DLC for 'The Case of the Golden Idol' just came out last Thursday on 31st of August, and I am excited to share this soundtrack with you!
After an overwhelmingly positive feedback of the music from the previous Golden Idol DLC "The Spider of Lanka" (which took a darker tone and introduced a heavy Asian inspiration) I felt a wave of inspiration alongside the feeling of being completely on the same page with Color Gray in terms of sound and the boundaries we can push music-wise in this new adventure that players will experience.
Monkey Paw Island, which (without spoilers) sheds more light on the mystery of the Golden Idol, heavily reminded me of Myst island. There is something ethereal, distant and at the same time nostalgic about this place.. that inspiration along a strong drive to continue evolving the soundtrack, rather than "locking / bounding" it to a certain genre, gave space for new creative ideas such as introducing tribal elements, more experimentation with ambience, more pronounced guitar sections, and sprinkling it all with some really cool dark & cinematic vibes.
And of course huge thanks to our publisher Playstack for making our ideas, vision, passion, aspirations and dreams come true!!
Honored and excited to share this soundtrack!
