Hi, I’m Tabea – a Game Developer with extensive experience as a Music Producer, Pianist, Composer, Arranger and Singer Songwriter. I have a degree in Popular Music (B.Mus from HMTM Hannover), where I specialised in Composition and Production.

During my 8+ years of working in the music industry, I have written and produced a variety of different music styles including a cappella, pop, classical orchestration, and more…

Cozy Tea Corner in the game Adventurers' Advocate

Brief

Adventurers‘ Advocate is a narrative fantasy puzzle game. A cozy stay-at-home adventure with plenty of food for thought.

The music for Adventurers‘ Advocate was meant to convey the cozy, warm atmosphere of the game. The style for the EP was supposed to be Pop Music – but with Renaissance and Medieval instrumentation. For the Main Theme I could expand on the same instrumentation with more traditional cinematic orchestration to convey a magical, hopeful mood.

Instrument Packs

UI and all other Sounds

Brief

One Bar Wonder or the Mighty Feeling of Musical Superiority is a Pack My Suitcase meets Guitar Hero multiplayer party extravaganza. Players compete for points by showcasing their creativity and rhythmical prowess.

I created about 40 different instrument packs for the gameplay, each consisting of 3-4 samples that sound quirky and fit with the light-hearted party atmosphere of the game. All of the UI and other in-game sound assets are made up of various bar-atmosphere related sounds to fit the art direction of our game: cocktail stirring, glass jingles, chairs scraping, etc.

Brief

Mirrornauts is a prototype developed on behalf of the TH Köln aimed at STEM students to practise their linear algebra skills. Players use rotation and mirror matrices to navigate an obstacle course through space.

First, I produced a main theme consisting of various arpeggiated synths to create a relaxed spacy atmosphere as accompaniment for the matrix calculations. Then I assembled all other sounds in the game to create a Sci-Fi soundscape to match the setting of the game.
