About
Joel Corelitz (founder) believes technology has a soul and music & sound design are part of the same thing. He creates emotional, design driven scores by fusing music and sound design into a unified audio experience centered around texture and mood.
Joel has a carefully considered knack for finding the perfect musical fit - an approach which has earned the trust of big names in both AAA and indie games, across a huge array of styles with the accolades to match: within the past 4 years, he’s composed music for 3 games that have made it to #1 on Steam: Halo Infinite, Hyper Light Breaker, and the pixel art indie hit Eastward. He also composed for Mortal Kombat, Sonic the Hedgehog, Gorogoa (Apple’s 2018 iPad Game of the Year), The Last Clockwinder (Meta Quest’s 2022 VR game of the year), and The Unfinished Swan (BAFTA nominee for best score) among many others. Joel started his career composing for advertising, and has continued to stay involved in music and sound for brands through his company, Waveplant. He also created musical sound design chimes and alerts for Ford’s EV lineup and Intuitive Surgical’s Da Vinci Xi via NYC-based sound agency, Listen. He lives near Chicago with his family.
