01What I do
Development, operations and music from a single source — personal, direct and without agency overhead.
Tailor-made web applications from first draft to launch — from community platforms and games to dashboards.
Your application reliably online: deployment, updates and operations — so you can focus on your product.
Servers for games, streaming and projects — set up, secured and maintained.
Bots for Discord, Twitch and other platforms — they moderate, entertain and automate.
Custom, dynamic OBS overlays for projects and streamers — from chat overlays to live trackers for speedruns.
Technical lead and operation of live streams and onsite events — from audio engineering to dynamic OBS overlays.
Arrangements and compositions in video game style — released on Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer & Amazon Music.
Epic, cinematic trailers and intro videos — produced in-house, also for others.

A peek into the workshop — these projects are still in the making.

A browser-based pixel art MMORPG I've been developing since 2021 — my own game project that runs right in the browser, no installation needed.

04Video Game Music

05Live on Twitch
I regularly stream Clone Hero on Twitch and keep building funny and interesting gadgets into my streams.
Music, charts and chat interaction live on Twitch — regularly, and always with a few technical surprises.
The latest feature: with a channel point reward, viewers can send messages straight to my receipt printer.
Most of the time my own AI-based Twitch chat bot is running. It handles many functions automatically and gives fitting answers to music questions.
I have traveled to Japan every year since 2018 — and by now I also stream IRL live from there.
06Video
On my YouTube channel you will find epic cinematic trailers, intro videos and regularly new piano videos of video game music.

07About me
I'm Epyx — a programmer, server provider and music and video producer, out of pure passion. I've been building for the web since 2003, creating applications, bots and tools that support communities and streamers day to day.
My music is made with a lot of love for detail and quality: arrangements and compositions from the world of video games, released on Spotify, Apple Music and other platforms.
My great passion is also Japan: I have traveled there every year since 2018 and by now I stream live from there as well. And when I am not coding or making music, you will find me on Twitch playing Clone Hero.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoy making it. ❤
