John D. Leon | Composer

Are you a game dev using stock music? Do you want custom music tailored to your game? Do you want adaptive music that reacts to the players actions? I create a unique musical identity for games and implement them using middleware like Wwise or FMOD. DM me "GAME" to discuss.

Learning piano and playing some of my favorite tunes has been extremely fulfilling. I'm singing "Under the Bridge" by Red Hot Chili Peppers here. Copyright prevents me from sharing the audio though. =(

Painting with a Twist always makes a good date night.

How I'd rescore Diablo.

Let me tell you about the worst gig I EVER played...

Halloween of 2012. Venomous Maximus, an awesome band plays with my sister's heavy metal band Texxxas. The singer for Venomous Maximum is also a tattoo artist who did tattoos for me and my sister.

Another testimonial for a video game track.

Do you know of any good games coming out soon? It's #WishlistWednesday.

One day I will be able to say, "I started my company with just a laptop in my garage!"

At 40, I walked away from a successful cybersecurity career to become a game composer. I had no clients, no connections, and two toddlers. I'm still figuring it out. What’s the biggest career risk you’ve taken (or wanted to take)?

Game devs, this is not a request. It's #screenshotsaturday and you must share what you are working on!

Testimonial from Bobbio Studios. I created a custom track for their video game.

My first GameSoundCon, 2026. I know I will look back at this as a major turning point in my life, the friendships I’ve made, and the career I’ve begun.

What games do you have your eye on? It is #WishlistWednesday and I'm always down to discover new games.

Landing in California for GameSoundCon.

It's my favorite time, #screenshotsaturday. Can I see what you game devs are working on?

Do you think there are similarities between music and programming?
