14 David Wise feat. Azure

Our first episode focusing on a video game composer outside of Japan. David Wise is primarily known for his work on the Donkey Kong Country series. But did you know that he also worked on Battletoads? The Wizards and Warriors series? Did you know that his first game was the first game Nintendo released from a publisher outside of Japan?

Joining me in this episode is a brand new guest, Rebecca AKA Azure. Writer, voice actress, developer, adventure game aficionado, forum moderator, she's a whole lot of things. She is also the first guest to add a track to the shuffle list from a game that isn't even out yet! We had fun discussing the life and works of David Wise, despite my botched attempt at the pronunciation of "Slalom." And I hope you guys have fun listening to the episode as well.
