MWM also offers licensing music for use in video games, offering a deep understanding of music copyright and maximizing profit from the many ways that game music can and should be exploited. The company’s well-established network in both the music and game industries provides a significant advantage in licensing music for and from projects.
Unique and handcrafted music
Our approach to composition and music production is unique, with a focus on delivering handcrafted, high-quality music that elevates the overall gaming experience.

Company mission
At our company, we are dedicated to the mission of providing the world with beautiful and emotionally captivating music that enhances the gaming experience and entertainment value. The founder of our company was born with a hearing disorder but found joy in playing video games that had melodies he could distinguish even when he couldn’t hear the sound effects.
After corrective surgery, he was able to fully appreciate the magic of music, and this experience inspired him to eventually start Mount West Music with the goal of sharing that power with others. Our mission is to give back the profound experience that we all had growing up with both games and music.
