Nick (Friday Night Gamecast) co-hosts as we give an introduction (an admittedly very broad introduction) to his works and style. Although many of our favorites were left out, there is discussion aplenty. We talk two major works, a few lesser-known titles, non-game music, music theory analysis, and much more. Hope you love the show today. Please enjoy!Referenced Links2000 Interview, Shmuplations 2003 Interview, Shmuplations Square Enix Music interview, 20005Thank you for listening!
