ABOUT





Stephen Rippy is a Texas-based composer with over two decades of experience writing and recording original soundtracks for games.


Since 1997, Stephen has provided music and sound design for a wide variety of titles and platforms - notable releases include Microsoft’s Age of Empires series, the spin-off Age of Mythology, and Halo Wars, as well as free-to-play mobile apps We Farm and Adventure Bay.


In 2011, Stephen’s score for CastleVille won attention for its use of a live orchestra, a first for the social gaming developer Zynga. More recent work includes music for Boss Fight Entertainment's Dungeon Boss and Anvil: War of Heroes.


Maintaining a separate body of work as a singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist, Stephen has independently released eleven full-length albums - most recently 2019's Lamplighting - and an instrumental EP (Points, 2012).


Stephen continues to work in the Dallas area and is likely thinking about getting started on his next record.
