Eric Buchholz

Hey there, I’m a freelance musician and programmer working in games, and sometimes films and TV. I enjoy programming and spend countless hours working in Unreal Engine, designing interactive music systems, custom engine tools, and anything else that grabs my interest.

Please enjoy looking through my work!

The long wait has ended and today marks the official release of Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope on Nintendo Switch!


The music was scored by three legendary composers: Yoko Shimomura, Grant Kirkhope, and Gareth Coker. I had the great pleasure of orchestrating Gareth’s work and providing score preparation for Grant’s contributions. This was the first project I’ve been on that was mostly recorded in Japan!

This was a really fun project—the Mario + Rabbids universe is so colorful and fun and it was a really nice change of pace. What’s even cooler is I got to mark an item off my bucket list: being in the credits of a game alongside Shigeru Miyamoto, Koji Kondo, and Mahito Yokota!
