In the spirit of team introductions, here is Mikko's, the music composer for Overgrowth. We will update you guys with some of his music soon.

---------

Hey! Im Mikko, an outsourced (and finnish) music composer in the Overgrowth team. I will be responsible of the game's musical themes and moods.

I started music composing in the beginning of the 90's with Amiga 500 and Protracker. I did lots of electronic music before I figured out how cool would it be to create orchestral music, so I started learning that stuff. The first game I produced music for was a submarine game called Deeptrouble for Mac in 2002. Since that I've done music for a pile of games, Penumbra series being the most known of them (and soon Overgrowth ;) ).

Currently I'm studying digital music production and (hopefully) should have my bachelor's degree pretty soon. I also run a music production company and independent music label (The Sound of Fiction) as well.

Favorite Games: Starcraft, Tony Hawk games, Ultima V, Wizard of Wor

Random Fact: I'm a great fan of retro games. The first computer game I played was Revenge of the Mutant Camels back in 1984. Oh, those days...
