a music composer and sound designer
specializing in video games.
y name is Márcio Araújo, and I'm a video game music composer and
technical sound designer based in Portugal, operating under the
alias "Jack Type".
Growing up surrounded by the vibrant atmosphere of a family-owned nightclub
and equipped with a formal background in electronics and programming, my natural inclination towards
music, sound, and technical pursuits was evident from an early age.
As my passion for audio continued to flourish, I embarked on years of independent learning, delving into various facets of music and audio production, including music theory, composition, and engineering disciplines like recording, mixing and mastering.
Video games played a pivotal role in shaping my interests, and I discovered that the world of game audio perfectly complemented my innate proficiency in both left and right brain thinking. This dual capacity has allowed me to blend artistry with technical expertise to realize the most imaginative ideas.
My journey through music has been diverse, influenced by my nightclub roots and eclectic tastes nurtured by video game soundtracks. Today, my greatest strength lies not in specialization into specific genres but in crafting music that perfectly complements the project at hand, ensuring the right tone, atmosphere, and emotional connection with the audience.
Likewise, sound design is an integral part of my creative process, whether I'm creating music, sound effects, ambiences, or anything in between. With strong audio engineering skills, I can effortlessly translate ideas into rich, impactful sounds, paying meticulous attention to detail and considering factors such as the target environments and their acoustics, as well as game aesthetics.
This combination of skills allows me to proficiently handle a wide range of audio, musical, and implementation tasks, resulting in the development of sound that enhances game experiences, making them more immersive and engaging for players.
