J: What would you say is the most important thing when composing music? In any case, this doesn’t imply that it I’m not open to other works in game audio, like sound design, composition, or integration into engines through middleware or not. We will present it on Kickstarter before the end of the year. Our first game will be a roguelike called ‘Slaughter No Hit’. Which is a group of professionals from different areas of development, with whom, despite the distance, we have managed to generate a very good friendship. S: I’m currently part of a Spanish indie video game development studio called Rebel Crew Studio. J: What’s the next step in your career? Any project you are working on? Today I’m dedicating a large part of my time to studying and creating game audio. As the pandemic progressed, I became fascinated with “asynchronous” foley, sound design, and non-linear music and audio production for video games. When I finished high school, I went to study piano at Universidad Nacional de Rosario and I ended up changing to a degree in Musical Composition I also formed an instrumental trio, called ‘3223’, with which we did several productions and live performances. I began experimenting with composition in typical teenage bands. Then, I returned when I was 12, and with a perspective oriented to the music I was listening to at that time. When I was 8 years old, I started studying piano at the conservatory in my city, but that didn’t last long. Since I was little, I was captivated by music, by the guitar and the keyboard, which were the instruments that were in my parent’s house. S: I think that with the passing of time I was convinced that this was for me. J: How did you know this was the industry that you wanted to work in? That investment of planning time is a lifesaver that saves extra hours of work from walking around blindly. It always helped me to plan and have a good organization, especially in the earlier stages of any project. S: For this industry, it’s extremely important to have patience and to be open to experimentation… Without that, you will go mad. J: What skills (either technical or personal) do you think that anyone starting in this industry needs? He has an associate degree in Composition: Harmony and Counterpoint and is currently studying Bachelor of Music Composition at ‘Escuela de Música de la Universidad Nacional de Rosario’.
In this edition, I talked to Sebastián Martínez Fernández, a sound designer and music composer based in Argentina.
