It's a new year and we're back with composer extraordinaire Kobe Anthony AKA MEMODEMO! Kobe has lent his energetic and nostalgic electronic style to projects like “Arcaea”, “Which Way Up”, “Nova Island” and more. We'll be diving into how Kobe creates such crisp and memorable retro inspired tracks, how to create an awesome professional brand, and how concept albums can be a great way to get your music out there and grow your audience. You can listen to some of Kobe's OSTs and albums here.
