Timeline
Dan Forden is an American sound programmer and music composer.
He graduated in 1985 from the Conservatory and has since produced sounds for many Williams Electronics games.
Forden's musical style, particularly for the Mortal Kombat series, is often a mixture of synthetic and organic sounds.
A typical composition usually incorporates ethnic drumming with synthetic basses, synthetic leads and/or pads, and sometimes exotic instruments.
In the Mortal Kombat series, he is credited as Dan "Toasty" Forden.
The nickname derives from an Easter egg that first appeared in Mortal Kombat II, where Forden's head would appear in the bottom-right corner of the screen and shout "Toasty!"
in a falsetto when an uppercut was performed.
He has worked on video games developed by Midway and its successor NetherRealm Studios since 1989.
Forden achieved recognition for his audio work on the Mortal Kombat fighting game series where he was part of the original design team.
He is also recognized for his Easter egg appearances in the series.
Outside of video games, Forden played bass guitar in the progressive rock band Cheer-Accident from 1992 to 1993.
Forden is the youngest of their four children to Sara Forden (née Mazza) and Michael Forden.
Forden is a graduate of the Oberlin Conservatory of Music in the TIMARA program (or Technology in Music and Related Arts).
After being retained for Mortal Kombat 3, the Easter egg would not be used again until the 2011 reboot.
It also appears in the "Tournament" stage of Mortal Kombat 11, using the Mortal Kombat 3 graphic of Forden.
sound effect would be featured frequently in the series after its introduction, often in reference to fatalities performed by Scorpion.
Two additional Easter eggs were created featuring Forden in Mortal Kombat 3 and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3; freezing an opponent in "danger mode" with Sub-Zero would make him shout "Frosty!"
and both players holding down the "High Punch" button after a Stage Fatality in Scorpion's Lair would make him shout "Crispy!"
Forden also included the "toasty" quote in the pinball machine Medieval Madness.
When the player hits the right ramp, one of the quotes that is played is "toasty!".
Easter egg is attributed in the dance simulator StepMania: whenever a player gets 250 consecutive Perfects or better (Excellents or better in the 4.0 CVS version), a "toasty" appears.
The PopCap game Peggle also features a tribute, as does the Aerosmith-themed rail shooter Revolution X, where singer Steven Tyler shouts "Toasty!"
in reaction to explosions.
Several songs that he composed for the Mortal Kombat 3 soundtrack were used in the precursor to South Park, Jesus vs. Santa.
