artist photo Jerry Berlongieri , a 14-year veteran of the video game industry, has provided music, sound content and direction for a number of top franchises such as 'Spider-Man', 'Call of Duty' and 'James Bond'. He has worked on projects for a wide range of companies including Disney Interactive, Segasoft, Hasbro, Mattel, Scholastic, Interplay, THQ, and Activision.

Gamespot once described Jerry's music as "A mix of slightly skewed techno and oddball trance, virtually every track is memorable and strangely appropriate. This is the rare game that may inspire you to shut off the sound effects so that you can enjoy the music."

Stylistically, Jerry's music is a colorful excursion into modern electronic fugues. "Zany and complex" Harmonic motifs dance playfully with each other, with signature glissando's', multi-octave bends, dynamic rhythmic choreography, and flat-out atmospheric fun. His soundtracks for games such as 'DESCENT 3' and 'ALTER ECHO' conjure up images of dark and exotic sci-fi landscapes, while 'EVENINGS AT THE MICROSCOPE' evokes more instinctual imagery; accompaniment for bedroom programming, basement science fair projects, electro-mechanical diagnostic work, and coleco-vision on a 12 inch b/w television.
