Gametime 2009 - Interview with Sascha Dikiciyan and Cris Velasco (Prototype)


Gametime 2009 - Interview with Sascha Dikiciyan and Cris Velasco (Prototype)


Well, it's GAMETIME once again here at Tracksounds! Once a year, we like to get our game (music) on around these parts...and we like to bring you along for the ride. This "new era" of video game music continues to provide, not only gamers, but many traditional fans of film music, with hours of experiential music to feast upon. Video game titles are getting at least as much attention as major feature films these days. People are hunting for every tidbit of information they can scrounge up on their favorite game franchise. We are waiting for hours in line to be among the first to dive into a new gaming world or back into a world we have devoted countless hours to already. The world's love-affair with video games continues to grow and in the answering of such great demand, comes a lot of exciting music that should not be overlooked. High Score! exists to put the spotlight on some of this great music.

To launch things, we have a great podcast interview with composers Sascha Dikiciyan and Cris Velasco who share about their most recent collaborative work for the video game, PROTOTYPE.

Tracksounds is Twitcasting...err Twitcamming?


Tracksounds is Twitcasting...err Twitcamming?


Livestream (a great company with a great webcasting product) just released TWITCAM today. It's a very interesting idea and simple way to do a video webcast via your twitter account.

As a bit of a test, I did about 30 minutes worth of "twitcasting" today...just to see how it all works. To keep it from being just me staring blankly into the webcam, I decided to give you a behind-the-scenes glimpse of me editing an upcoming interview. Ooooo! I know.

Now, before you finish your *yawn*, you do get to hear a few significant segments of the interview with SASCHA DIKICIYAN and CRIS VELASCO on their recent project PROTOTYPE. Not only that, but you get to hear a few bits of the score itself. I also talk a little bit about why our High Score update has been delayed so long.

Anyway...check out our first Twitcast...and if you start twitcasting be sure to let us know. We'll watch.

You can find our Twitcast page here, but whenever we do cast...it will be auto-tweeted so just follow us to be notified of our next cast!

Let me know what you think about the twistcast.
