Hello there and welcome to those that joined my Mailing List over at www.jshaw.co.uk Through these occasional emails (no more than once per month), I hope to give you quick updates and news on my work, let you in on some exclusive discounts and sales, and just waffle about music and sound. |

MORE SFX ESSENTIALS LIBRARIES |
|
|
Low-price. High-quality. Essential. That is the aim of this new series of sound effects libraries. This series aims to provide smaller, more affordable sound packs that focus on a single category of sounds in great variety and detail. Please enjoy three more ESSENTIALS libraries that have been added to the collection: |
|
|
All of these sounds (and more!) are also included in the 96 General Library - definitely worth checking out if larger SFX packs are more your thing! |

Octopath Travelers United! |
|
|
Fans of Square Enix's Octopath Traveler will be excited to learn of a massive 2+ hour tribute album that was recently released by the PixelMixers community. |
|
|
Featuring a whopping 33 arrangements from multiple different artists (including yours truly!) and an impressively diverse hybrid of styles, this album has everything: relaxing ambiences, smooth jazz, and exhilarating battle themes! 🤘 I was commissioned to create a special 6-minute arrangement of the ferocious "Decisive Battle II" (which you can hear at 53:07), alongside an introductory medley of character motifs. And the result is soooo gooood - an absolutely massive kudos to ViolinGamer (the commissioner), and the 20+ performers that tackled it (apologies 1st violinists). |

... Golden Sunday approaches ... |
|
|
The 20th anniversary of the beloved JRPG franchise, Golden Sun, is rapidly approaching (August 1st 2021). For anyone that has read the previous newsletter, you may have heard about the TandA x VVGO music collaboration we are running to celebrate it. |
|
|
The VVGO team and I have been hard at work preparing for this special release coming to you on August 1st, featuring over 300 submissions from the global music community, including a pre-show livestream hosted by a skinny English lad (oh hey, that's me! - no pressure :O ) Be sure to follow the VVGO YouTube channel to join in the premiere on August 1st! |

TandA: Breath of the even Wilder |
|
|
It never stops! - I have continued to pump out new transcriptions and arrangements for the TandA YouTube channel ("Transcriptions and Arrangements"). The latest releases include the hype-inducing "E3 Trailer Music (Breath of the Wild 2)", as well as some more arrangements from Monster Hunter: Rise and Golden Sun. Have a listen if those sound interesting to you: |
|
|
And gosh, if you made it to the end, here's a cookie >>> 🍪
I hope you found something interesting buried in here, and that some of you will join in the Golden Sun 20th anniversary on August 1st - see you there! |

|
As always, stay safe out there! |
