About me
My Name is Jens from ExplorerAUDIO also known as
The Chiptune Composer
As Explorer2000, I compose authentic pixel art & retro game music inspired by NES, SNES, Mega Drive, Game Boy and C64 sound aesthetics. In fact, I don’t just imitate retro sound — I write music that behaves as if it belongs to the hardware your game is inspired by.
Moreover, my focus is not just making music for your game — it’s making your game truly your game. I write music that supports gameplay flow, emotional pacing and world-building from day one. Whether it’s main themes, dungeon loops or full indie OST production, I collaborate closely with developers to create cohesive soundtracks that feel intentional and technically clean.
However, AI-generated music might seem like a quick solution, yet it falls short where it matters. It doesn’t understand gameplay, nor does it adapt to pacing, and it can’t guarantee consistency across a full soundtrack. Most importantly, it doesn’t create identity — and without a clear musical identity, your game risks sounding generic.
With structured workflow, clear communication and reliable delivery, each project is priced individually depending on scope, track count and implementation needs. As a result, you’ll receive a clear, transparent quote after a short project brief.
So, if you’re building a retro-inspired game and want music that truly fits your world, let’s talk.
