Hello again everyone, I'm here with an update.

I threw together an album of trailer-style music mostly between 2019-2020, and one of my publishers, Amadea Music Productions, has just released said album. You can listen to it here and purchase it if you feel so inclined! Have a wonderful day and Thanksgiving!

Hello everyone!

I finally am able to share the OST I wrote for the Minecraft Harry Potter video game mod by the Floo Network! They have uploaded the entire soundtrack on their YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBG7T7B5TE4&list=PLWZep2P4alf0m6Lk_sCveSKiGPROpo5AO&index=1

And you can purchase the full album here: https://collinbrefka.bandcamp.com/album/witchcraft-and-wizardry-ost

Thanks for any and all support!

I recently did the music for a Harry Potter game/Minecraft game mod done by a group called the Floo Network. Expect a 6-track album for that soon + check out the game play trailer here, it's almost got half a million views! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVVnw6LNtaI

Besides that, I am just about done with an album that I started for Atom Music Audio that should be finished and released soon as well. After all of that is done I also want to release an album of music from what I wrote during the 2019 NGADM. Lots of fun stuff coming out in the next month or so!

Hello to anyone that may be interested!

I am opening up original music commissions. Every commission is done on a case by case basis, so if you are interested, then please DM me. I specialize in orchestral music, but can and have branched out into other genres as well. Check out my portfolio here: https://soundcloud.com/collinbrefkamusic/sets/commissions

Do note that pricing is based upon a number of factors, such as the number of instruments, texture of the orchestration (i.e. the difference between a slow ambient piece and a fast paced action piece), total number of minutes, etc. If you want to get into basic pricing, feel free to DM me as well.

Hello to those that may be interested in my current projects/life!

I felt an update of sorts was in order for what to expect of my stuff here on Newgrounds. I've been extremely busy with school this semester, as I've been taking 10 classes at my university. Thankfully, the semester will officially end this Friday, May 4th and I will be free for the summer! :D

Moving on to my current and future projects: one of my main goals is to get hired by at least one if not more trailer music production companies. Some of the future pieces of music I put on here will be attempts at writing within that format to help myself in putting together a legitimate trailer music portfolio. I'm also going to try my luck at entering the art inspired music contest again this year. Besides that, I may upload the occasional piece just for fun now and then.

In addition, I've been working on and off in my free time on an Ori and The Blind Forest fan-game of sorts. I hope to make large leaps towards its completion this summer and you can follow it for updates either on our discord: https://discord.gg/Z49bkj and/or follow our blog: https://storiesofnibel.blogspot.com/

That's all I have to say for now. If another relevant update comes to mind, I'll be sure to inform my followers here!

Beware to those that dare to read my ill-formed rhetoric! ;D

Sooo, this week is my spring break. I was planning on writing and uploading another piece to newgrounds by the end of the week; I had actually already written about a minute of music, but then my ear started bothering me on Monday. I went to the doctors today and it turns out I've got a pretty bad ear infection. :( I'm taking antibiotics and it should be cleared up by next week, but until then I won't be able to work on any music. As long as everything goes well, I should be able to finish the piece sometime within the next 2-3 weeks, so look out for that!

In other news, I entered the Marvin Hamlisch Film Scoring Contest and submitted my entry at the beginning of the month. Fingers crossed to hoping that I get selected as a finalist! I'll find out if I'm a finslist near the beginning of April. I won't be able to share that music until after the contest is over in June, but that'll be like ~10 minutes of fun to look forward to.

I also have a choral piece that will be premiered at a music composition recital at my university. That piece is a little bit stranger, as it falls under the 'art music,' category, but if anyone's interested I'll be uploading that to soundcloud after the premiere on April 9th.

Two more months 'till I finish my sophomore year of college! Gonna be starting atonal melodies in sight-singing pretty soon. Hopefully that doesn't kill me too much and I manage to make it out alive. :P

Until next time, see ya'll later!
