Bay Area Sound interview 07 Mar, 2010 / Comments: 10

By Jason


It's actually somewhat shameful that it's only now that we're posting an interview with BA Sound, the guys who handle the audio for the titles of LEC as well as Telltale and the other spinoffs.

Depending on the project, their services range from a game's sound design, music composition, and voice direction, and given the particular importance those things have in a story game, and considering that the studio's resume of them is longer than a Double Fine development cycle, it's clear that they're owed a lot for what makes some of our favorite titles so awesome. And that you owe it to yourself to read the interview.

    Very funny and educational interview, it was great to read Julian again.

    I should mention thought that editing-wise this interview was not on the level of perfection that Mojo has accustomed me to. There are some typos here and there.

    It's completely depressing to re-listen to Emerson-Johnson's Bone soundtracks, as he completely nails it with the mix between "epic saga" and bluegrass, and it would have been a real treat to hear how he would have expanded on that foundation in the later books.

    If the film's soundtrack does a better job of capturing the personality of the comics with its score, I'd be shocked.

    Yeah, I regularly listen to the Bone soundtrack on my soundtrack (in other news, I am the biggest geek alive).

    I totally agree. The main theme alone is both whimsical and epic, which is exactly right. Ted the Bug's theme is just perfect too.

    Nice job; great interview.

    (Stop making Mojo seem almost relevant, Jason.)

    Very nice, but, um... sort out the bold.

    Ah, scratch that, it was just my crappy work IE causing that. Everything is fine. There's no need to panic.
