Episode Description

We are celebrating five years on the air with a special visit from veteran video game composer extraordinaire Tom Salta. Tom stops by to chat with the boys about scoring games, the state of the game industry, the tools he uses, why he hates listening to film and game scores, and his work as alter-ego Atlas Plug. Deane and Brian also give an update on SCOREcast’s plans for the 2012 NAMM Show in Anaheim, and talk through all of the killer details surrounding this month’s SCOREcast 5th Anniversary celebration. It’s a whopping 2-hour episode that is chock-full of anniversary goodness, and definitely one that you don’t want to miss!
