WE ARE YOUR
MUSIC DEPARTMENT

SpiderFarm Productions is a boutique music production company for video game developers, led by multiple AAA award-winning producer, composer, and engineer Jonathan Mayer.

 

We bring 20+ years of top-level experience to the table with the goal of heightening the emotional impact of your game’s narrative experience while seamlessly integrating with and supporting your in-house creative team.

INTERACTIVE
MUSIC DESIGN

Designing a groundbreaking score starts with a focus on the game itself. Our work with development teams focuses on the areas where creative and technical challenges merge to provide the most impactful and seamless player experiences.

MUSIC COMPOSITION

Finding the right fit emotionally and stylistically for an original score is paramount to the success of the project. We collaborate with our partners to develop the musical language that brings their worlds and their stories to life during gameplay. 

MUSIC PRODUCTION

A seamless interactive score means that all phases of the process focus on the creative and technical needs of the project. We manage the music production process from its inception, including budgeting, recording planning and execution, mixing, and editorial.

IMPLEMENTATION

Crafting the music for a memorable interactive experience only gets us halfway there. Our passion and experience have taught us that the integration into the game is as important as any other aspect of the process.
