[...] Matt Ganucheau and I got to sit down with Xeni Jardin of Boing Boing Video during the Game Developer Conference to discuss some of the potential for interactive music in games. Matt is a composer, sound designer, and educator, talking about how heâ€™s encouraging his own students to think about adaptive music in new ways, combining Max/MSP and a Space Invaders clone built in the Unity Game Engine. (See our story from earlier this week.) [...]

[...] Teaching Adaptive Music with Games: Unity + Max/MSP, Meet Space Invaders! | Create Digital Music Dieser sich schier endlos drehende Tanz von Computern und Musik wird erst dann stoppen, wenn ich schon lange in die ewigen Jagdgründe eingezogen bin. Vielleicht. “In the early days of game sound, musical soundtracks were all largely adaptive and interactive, fused with the sound effects of the game and the logic of gameplay. Scores were less Alfred Newman or John Williams, more Spike Jones. Today, game music has the potential to reinvent composition itself, to help us reimagine what makes a musical score as on-screen user action drives musical ideas. But with a few, notable exceptions, most modern titles have opted for big, Hollywood-style soundtracks â€“ and the linear composition that goes with them, as though someone just took a film score CD and hit play.” [...]

P.S. I wish I’d had the option of studying game music at Uni :-(
