The podcast has been quiet lately, sorry for that. I’ve been taking a week to relax with the family in preparation for the week of mind blowing GDC awesomeness that will take me from them. I’ll be having some sound design and music work presented at the GDC demo derbies so if you’re attending come give them a listen. The sound design video is a shortened version of my current reel while the music piece is something brand new I wrote especially for this event. I’m looking to meet a lot of new friends this next week so if you see me please dont hesitate to say hi, hand me a business card, give me a noogie, whatever.
See you cats on the other side.
Hey guys, podcast episode 4 is officially up. Head over to the podcast page and check it out. I decided today I’ll be crashing the Dallas location of the 2012 Global Game Jam. For those who aren’t familiar with the GGJ it’s a 48 hour game development “race”. On friday night GGJ locations around the world get a theme and have the weekend to conceptualize and develop a game based on that theme. Should be fun, we’ll see how many teams need an audio guy 
. If you’re in the area come by and call dibs on me!
The news updates have been fairly light because a new Welch has entered the building. Kaiden Thomas Welch, my son, was born on November 12 2011. The whole being a new father thing slowed me down for a week or so but Im back!
The website now has a podcast section to host a new show I’m doing with journalist, philosopher and overall cool guy Jon McEwen. The Podcast is called Through Music and we will be discussing music, politics, pop culture, philosophy, and otherwise relevant concepts worthy of discussion. Or sometimes unworthy but fun to talk about none the less. It’s an infotainment show intended to give you relevant information and perspective on important issues within a fun bantery environment.
Vlog episode 8 is live and you can find it on my youtube page which is linked at the footer of this site. In this episode I announce what I hope is to be a new web series that will run within, along side, or replace my current weekly vlog.
Mobile games are taking over. As a mostly PC and console gamer this does suprise me a bit. I guess Im part of the niche where as the mobile market hits a larger demographic.
