In this issue of
GIGnews.com, we've put down the controller, turned off the telly, put on
our reading glasses, and kindly asked game industry insiders for book
recommendations. (Note: When available, we've linked to Amazon and other
sources where you can learn more about and/or purchase the books). Time
to read, class....

Way: "There are very few texts available on
game audio and music design that I am aware of, in that
the field is very much an emerging and ever changing
discipline. There are a couple of excellent texts for
the business side of composing that I can recommend -- The
Business of Music and The Platinum Rainbow
are two great references that I would swear by. The
former is the Music Biz BIBLE. The latter is a wonderful
and witty look at the realities of 'making it big.'" |
