Composer and all around awesome guy Josh Barron joins the show this episode, so let’s get started!
The show kicks off with Bri Galgano, Jacob Garner, and Aki on hand to welcome composer Josh Barron to the show to chat about the work he did on the recently released Fallen Aces from New Blood Interactive. We chat about the creation of the game and music, comparisons to composing non-game music, and tons more. Plus we cover news of the week including all of the news from the Sony State of Play, PS Plus catalog additions, launches, layoffs, and that nasty PSN outage. Oh yeah, and a ton of reviews!
