“Where ruin meets reverie,
and every music note carries a soul.”
The Ash Side
We believe music is a soul-satisfying artform, and we take meaningful steps when creating concepts surrounding music-based empathy, character backgrounds, storylines, and the many aspects of personal effect the player experiences. There are many sides to the human experience we love to learn about so we can help tell stories the way they’re meant to be felt. Adventure, beauty, elation, honor, hope, pride, serenity – and over to the opposite end: lament, perseverance, tribulation, or wistfulness.
The Aether Side
We thrive when tasked with creating music that is not just exceptionally well composed & produced, but also bold, daring,
and unapologetically creative. We’re no stranger to genre hybridizing, especially with the incredibly unique soundtrack Jesse Zuretti is composing for 2XKO. Each member of our team specializes in writing music that shakes things up when our clients need that most.
About Us
We’re an external development team focused on delivering creative, highly polished, powerful music, and precise music.
We have vast flexibility and scalability for game dev studios and productions of all sizes.
Because of our team stack and external resources, we can easily meet production timelines of any kind – we may even be able to shorten overall stretches.
Limitless Genre Capabilities: we have unparalleled genre fluency that enables our team the abilities to not only musically profile characters, emotions, narratives, and worlds, but also create the most effective and thought-provoking music that devs need to complete their productions.
Cultural Respect & Trust: The A&A team have decades of producing, writing, performing, engineering, and touring (internationally & domestically) in the music industry – which opens circles to broad talent pools for collaborations and features.

Our team can do it all. From initial concepts
to final edits, Ash & Aether can complete each step of the process within the team.

The Composers
We are composers who have paved our own way into our careers in music. While we may not have followed the same traditional path of the great composers before us, our journey has given us unconventional gigs where we had the great honor of building into fantastical worlds.
From Marvel, to Critical Role, to Riot, we use our art to directly serve the needs of the story rather than follow the trends of our time.
