Rahul's creativity and knowledge always allowed him to understand the specifics of the sounds required in various scenarios. And with his excellent skills in creating sound assets and composing music, he delivered an immersive audio experience.

His quality leadership skills led to the growth of the other designers in the sound team, and his collaborative nature assisted the sound team to work flawlessly with other teams and meet rising expectations and requirements of sound changes during production phases and after player feedback.

I recommend Rahul with enthusiasm as his creativity, skills and personal qualities would make him a priceless asset to any team and contribute significantly towards sound design.

Narrative Designer, Black March Studios

Rahul is an exceptional composer with an ear for melodies and a deep understanding of music within various narrative settings. I worked with Rahul on Crimson Tactics and had multiple conversations with him regarding audio, music and it's part and process in the larger game development context, in addition to all the work related to the game itself. He consistently displayed fantastic and thorough knowledge of various instruments and music composition software. Additionally, it was always fun to pick his brain about the various melodies I heard in games that held strong nostalgic values for me. He is definitely one of the best that I have worked with and I couldn't recommend him more!
