December 23rd, 2020Some of my favorite online friendship moments were created in the video game lobby. Why, you ask?
The lobby is a place where inside jokes are born. It's a place where we say hello and catch up on life and the things we missed while we were away. It's a place where we say our goodbyes until we meet again. With a lot of my online...

I think we can all agree that Fallout has some really stylish music choices. The first time I played Fallout 3 and heard "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire" by The Ink Spots in the opening sequence, I'm not gonna lie... I shed a few tears. There's just something about that 40's radio sound that tugs on...

March 31st, 2020Well, we're all stuck inside for an unknown period of time, so I hope you guys are all finding stuff to do. Personally, I've gotten to the point where I'm using my imagination juices like I'm still 10 in my backyard and playing pirates with my cat, and music has been setting the tone for my adventures! Don't judge me, it's been almost 2...
July 25th, 2019The Legend of Zelda series takes us on a wild ride no matter what game we're playing. Personally, the music is what holds up the personality of each game, really driving home the emotions I feel while watching a cutscene or battling a boss. This is all thanks to one man, who happens to be my favorite composer of all time: Koji...

October 25th, 2018Happy harvest time! – we're loving the fall weather as we ramp up toward the holidays, but that also means spending more time indoors. Chillaxing by the fire, spending time in our rec room... or in our inner sanctum creating something diabolical?! Maaaaaybe. ;)

December 4th, 2017It’s that time of the year: the Holidays. Some people started putting up Christmas decorations in October (don’t be that person, please) while others were counting days until they could pull out their collection of ugly sweaters, one for each holiday party invite received.
A staple part of the holiday season is also the music. You...

October 2nd, 2017With the recent release of Sloclap and Devolver Digital's Absolver, the attention to its musical score also took people by surprise. We can thank Austin Wintory – composer of game scores such as Journey, Abzu, Monaco, Assassin's Creed Syndicate, The Banner Saga and more – for that.
With Absolver finally hitting everyone's eyes and...

April 18th, 2017So many elements of Stranger Things' first season captured the time period of the early 1980's in a way that spoke to a whole generation of fans. And the music - not only the score, but the song choices - was an indelible part of that.
Clearly we're anticipating more of the excitement, the chills, the incredible storytelling of Stranger...
