Ervan Waters Jr
An aspiring original game music composer with dreams of scoring the next great video game blockbuster.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I was raised on the likes of RPGs like Final Fantasy IV and Chrono Trigger, which, incidentally, is the one game I credit more than any other for setting me on this path. Eventually I dream of making my own games as well; anything I post here will be from one of my video game works in progress.
Your musical influences
Hmm, Yasunori Mitsuda, Maurice Ravel and Claude Debussy are my biggest influences. Also, to an extent, Nobuo Uematsu, Shoji Meguro, John Williams, among many others. Orchestral/cinematic, jazz, rock, world, ambient--my work is oftentimes a fusion of more than one of these styles.
What equipment do you use?
My laptop, Finale, M- Audio Keystation 88, Sonar, and a lot of virtual instruments.
