"Stardew Valley came into my life when I was struggling through my highly stressful second year of doctoral studies in composition. My wife recommended the game to me, and like always, she was right. I spent the rest of that year improving my farm and, in the process, improving my life. Inspired by this game I had come to love, I began arranging the music, which helped me push through stress-induced writer’s block and even begin to focus on writing original music again. After I completed my DMA, I connected with Sebastian Wolff of Materia Collective, who set me up with a powerhouse team: Augustine Mayuga Gonzales, David Peacock, and John Weston. I also owe thanks to Eric Barone (ConcernedApe) for giving us Stardew Valley and its music in the first place. This experience has been a dream for me. Thank you all.
This album highlights the essential musical moments from the 200+ hours I spent in Stardew, capturing the everyday experience of a year in the game. It has always been my goal to offer arrangements that resemble their counterparts precisely, although I do take some creative liberties. I hope my love for the game shines through in my arrangements, and I hope they will bring you as much happiness as this game has brought me. "
