About Bert Cole

Bert Cole is a seasoned composer with over 20 years of experience in music composition. He is a graduate of the Atlanta Institute of Music and Media, and received a Certificate of Musicianship through their Guitar program. As a multi-instrumentalist (guitar, piano, drums, bass and even vocals) Bert is well versed in what makes a great song tick.

Bert’s music can be heard in games such as Crystal Project, Magic of Spring, Sector Six, Castle of the Underdogs, Retaliate and many more!
(See a full list below)

He has an affinity for retro sounds and OSTs from the Golden Era of JRPGs, and has honed his ability to recreate sounds from the 8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit eras. His abilities don’t stop there, as he blends classic chiptunes with modern electronic sounds, orchestral and even metal!

He also has way too many cats but he loves them, so it’s fine.

“Bert is an exceptionally hard working, industrious and collaboratively focused individual. All these traits shine in his compositions, which contain a wide range of styles and colors. But most importantly, they showcase a strong sense of melody and his love for gaming. I’d highly recommend him to any developer needing a great soundtrack.”

Tyler MireGame developer with Something Classic Games (www.tylermiremusic.com)

“Bert is an awesome composer! He did such a great job on our game. He quickly captures the needs and mood of the game with a rare finesse. This leads to amazing compositions I never tire of listening to. And most of all, he has this creative energy, joy and enthusiasm that he passes on to others. It was a real pleasure to work with him and I hope we will work again together. In the meantime, I can only highly recommend him for any of your projects because, trust me, he IS the composer you need!”
