For those wondering where I've been for the last few weeks here's the scoop...I've been incredibly busy composing the music and managing the sound design for Blue Fang Games' "World of Zoo" coming to the Wii, DS, and PC this Xmas!!!

The game is an amazing toybox experience that allows you to interact with various animals in exotic locations using the Wii remote. With 3 years of development behind us we're in the final weeks before we hand off to Nintendo so, as you can imagine, post-production and polish are our primary concerns. I tried to push the audio envelope a bit further than expected on a mass-market game of this "nature" :) with the help of Audiokinetic's wWise Sound Engine so get ready for some really fun ear candy.

Good news is we will be completely finished by the end of July and then I'll be wrapping up my next project with DJ/producer/friend Tamer Malki. As the summer progresses you'll see more dates and release information right here at georgevala.com. It's the calm before the storm...

Brand-spanking new "Whispers" re-imagining coming to your ear canals soon. Keep posted!

Swing over to http://www.houseoverdose.com and check out the featured artist page for some of my unreleased material.

This week I was down in NYC recording for Blue Fang's next big release with Dave and Neil over at Heavy Melody Music. The boys recently released a virtual instrument called Evolve that has gone on to receive tremendous accolades in the industry, earning EM's Editor's Choice Award and support from film composers Hanz Zimmer and Harry Gregson-Williams. We recorded a lot of great material and I'm looking forward to spending the next week editing it all...

As far as new tracks, I have 3 in the works (including the never-ending "Factory Made") and the WMC mixes should be up shortly. I'll be back in Boston this weekend.

Enjoy the warmth!

Hi All!

Welcome to the new site. I'm kicking this one off with a little summary of WMC. This was my first year at WMC and I had a blast. Unfortunately, I could only make it down for the weekend but, nevertheless, got a great taste of the city thanks to my friend Marni.

Saturday night I played Tech' Garden at Grass/TheKingIsDead and rocked it pretty hard. Two 2 hour sets and several compliments after I finally got to relax and hit the pool. It couldn't have gone better. I'll be uploading both full sets as soon as I get back so come visit the site again in a few days for the free download. Until then, thanks for stopping by and get ready for an awesome spring.
