Gaming with music

Looking through random game pages on the internet, I found this interview with Neil D. Voss, the composer of Tetrisphere for the Nintendo64 and Racing gears for the gameboy advanced. These may not be highly acclaimed as pivotal games but his composition work on Tetrisphere earned him the best soundtrack award from "nintendo power".

This isn't too techy as such but writing music for video games is something that really interests me, and writing music for older consoles (although the N64 isn't too old it is still only 64 bit) a very interesting area. The interview itself is a good insight into a games composers view on writing for such a console.
