2. DISASTERPEACE
Rich Vreeland, but you may know me as Disasterpeace. I
live in the San Francisco Bay Area. I make music and sounds.
I'm interested in interactivity. I strive to work with those
who have a unique voice, and something to say.
I am interested in making a difference. I grew up writing
guitar licks in New York. I graduated from the Berklee
College of Music. I interned at MIT and wrote music for
Bomberman. I speak and perform around the globe.
I scored the award winning game, 'FEZ'. The London
Philharmonic Orchestra performed a song from that game.
I am looking to broaden my creative horizons. I am a busy
person, but I always make time for the right opportunities.
Please get in touch! I will respond to all serious inquiries.

6. HISTORY /
CURRENTLY
Rich grew up writing Drop D guitar riffs in Staten Island, New York. After a
decade of graphic design, he switched his focus to music. While in school,
Rich interned at MIT and also wrote music for a Bomberman game. He used
college loan money to attend GDC, and started taking commissions to
score games. Rich has performed live since 2006 and continues to do so. /
Rich released a generative music game in 2012, called January. He contin-
ues to explore the interactive possibilities of music. In the fall of 2011, Rich
played a Disasterpeace show in Montreal. There he met Polytron, a
two-man game development team, and they began to collaborate on FEZ.
The game received many accolades, including the 2012 IGF Grand Prize.
The commercial success of FEZ has allowed Rich to work on a wider variety
of projects. Lately, he has been working on linear media, such as film and
animation. Rich intends to focus on more personal projects in the future.
