Getting into gaming
It’s a funny story. I started to work in 1995 at the Fox Family Channel, which is now the ABC Family Channel. I was recruited to be a staff composer there and I composed hundreds of TV episodes for the Power Rangers, Beetleborgs, State of Grace, you name it. I started to create a lot of music and throw demos around here and there, and in 1997 I got a strange phone call from somebody who presented himself as a game composer’s agent. At this time I wasn’t a gamer so I didn’t know games actually had music and definitely didn’t know there were composers for that. I thought it was a hoax. So he said to me, “Would you like to compose music for video games?” and of course I said “No.” That was it pretty much. Lucky enough the guy, Bob Rice -- he is my manager, agent, and very good friend -- was really persistent and started to call me again and again. He’d ask me, "What kind of music do you like to write?" I said "I like to write orchestral music for films and TV." He said, "Well, games have a lot of orchestral stuff." I told him "You’re kidding me." He said "No no no!" So he started sending me music composed at the time for Star Trek games and I was like "Wow, I didn’t know that" and said "Well, can I try?" And he said "Only if you ask nicely." I asked nicely. That’s how I started.
