Hi, everyone.
My name is Jesse Harlin. For the last ten years, I was the staff Composer and Music Supervisor at LucasArts. Recently we were purchased and subsequently shut down by Disney. In the wake of the shut down, I'm going freelance for music composition.
A bit about me: I've been in the games industry for 15 years, the last 10 of which were at LucasArts. In that time, I've written for and directed sessions with the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road. I've also worked on really small, sample-only scores for iOS and casual games. I've written rap, rock, hybrid orchestral action music, sweeping thematic scores, Brazilian trip-hop, etc. You name it, I've probably done it. I've been nominated for and/or won a Game Audio Network Guild Award each year for the last 8 years in a row. I also wrote the Aural Fixation column for Game Developer Magazine for 6 years.
I know interactive scoring, implementation, and music system design. I know how to handle large projects. I know how to handle small projects. My general, all-purpose demo can be found at my website,
www.dunderpatemusic.com. You can also check out more of my material on SoundCloud here:

I'd love to chat with devs looking for creative, original music. Hope to hear from you soon!
