Eminent gaming tune-smiths James Hannigan and John Broomhall will come together in perfect harmony at London’s Southbank Centre next Monday to celebrate the craft of making music for games. In a day promising to provide much insight into a sometimes under-appreciated aspect of game development, Game Music Connect’s event schedule is packed full of top industry composers ready to show how some of our favourite soundtracks make the journey from pencil to pixel.





Sony was recently announced as a main sponsor for the event, lending some serious weight to Hannigan and Broomhall’s inaugural event. "Game Music Connect is unique," commented Alastair Lindsay, Music Production Manager at Sony Computer Entertainment Europe. "Having a full day event dedicated to video game music with some of the industry's top composers and Audio Directors is not to be missed. Lifting the lid on how both composers and developers work together will give a rare insight for anyone wanting to get into the industry or even if they just have an interest in video game music."





I will be in attendance, soaking up the creative vibe and hopefully getting to chat to some of the people that have made my gaming experiences infinitely richer than they might otherwis e have been. Expect a full feature to follow sometime next week.





Game Music Connect takes place in the Purcell Room of London's Southbank Centre on Monday 9th September. Tickets are available here: www.gamemusicconnect.com/registration
