Satsuma Audio I am an experienced composer and sound designer, working in game audio for 8+ years now on a whole bunch of games across a variety of styles. I love my job and love to get creative, let me create something awesome for you! Rather than waffle on about myself here too much, please check out my website ---> http://satsu.ma It has my full portfolio, showreel, credits, etc. Here's the showreel: My rates are flexible and affordable, if you like my work please get in touch and we can go from there! Thanks for listening (assuming you did listen, if you didn't, no hard feelings).
Lawrence help us with sounds effects for Gemibears. He is really hard-working person and will make your game sounds great.
I had a bunch of music made for my game and I am really happy with them, I have been back and forth in emails about what tunes I needed for months, thanks again!
So it has been a while since my last post and a very busy few months! I recently created lots of squelchy, gory sound effects for iOS/Android zombie defense game Hipster Zombies (this one was a lot of fun), made music and sound effects for a couple of games for Slingo.com. Also, ongoing sound design work for the in-production MMORPG SideQuest, as well as some victory music for some real life slot machines and some other stuff which isn't quite finished yet! Here are some nice things which people said about my work recently (I didn't make them say this I promise): "Everyone over here at Slingo has been blown away by your work, honestly. We can’t imagine why we’d use anyone else ever. The artist on our team can’t stop gushing about how perfect the sounds are." - Jason Chin, Slingo.com "Let me start by saying that the both of us are really happy with the quality of the sounds so far ... We're very confident that you've been the right choice for us and our little project here." - Martin Nerukar, Sharkbomb Studios. However, it looks as though the workload is beginning to clear slightly so I would love to take on some more projects, so if you need any music or sound design for your current project, I would love to hear from you! *Full info and portfolio links can be found in the original post* -Lawrence Steele Satsuma Audio [email protected] http://satsu.ma
Currently working on music for the upcoming melon racing (yes, melon racing) game, Melon Dash (http://www.melondash.net/). Just written an awesome bluegrass banjo tune for it, can't wait to show it off However I am still very much on the lookout for new projects to get involved with, so if you need sounds or music of any variety just let me know!

New music! Just finished mixing this Bluegrass banjo track for Melon Dash (www.melondash.net) http://soundcloud.com/satsuma-audio/melon-dash-farm Was a lot of fun to do, had the chance to get a real banjo player in to play on it which was awesome, can't wait to get the rest of the music done! In the meantime, I am still on the lookout for projects to get involved with so hit me up if you need music and/or sound effects Satsuma Audio - http://satsu.ma - @SatsumaAudio - lawrence(at)satsu.ma

Been a while since my last update and what a busy time it has been! The backlog of work is beginning to clear so it's time to get it filled up again! If you are in need of any music and/or sounds for your upcoming titles please let me know Some recent bits: Slingo Zen Match - A serene Zen Garden themed match 3 game I did music & SFX for. Slingo Safari Slots - An african safari themed slot machine featuring my music & sounds. SideQuest Alpha - The SideQuest Alpha is now live! Free-to-play 2D JRPG inspired MMORPG which I have been sound designing for the past year or so. Bear in mind its Alpha so not 100% perfect! Map screen music - An orchestral piece I recently wrote for an upcoming iOS fantasy roguelike-like (crazy how that's actually a thing now...). Pretty pleased with how this one turned out.

A couple more new tracks: Banzai Words theme - A lighthearted, minimal-ish track for the minimal yet fast paced iOS word game Banzai Words Melon Dash - City - A fast paced funk track for the City level of upcoming melon race game Melon Dash.
