Saw the news while browsing reddit and didn't see it on these forums. Halo 3: ODST has some of my favorite OSTs out of any game ever, so anyone who contributed to their creation has my respect. RIP.

Damn rest in peace

He did music for GW2's bi-monthly patches, so he's been super active until this happened suddenly. It's possible the game's next patch may still have tracks composed by him...

Rest in peace.

Damn that sucks.

I had only learned of him recently: for those unaware he’s also the composer of the relatively famous Windows XP install music.
