Zamora 2 Player Podcast - Sidequest Ep. 7 -

#gamemusic #musicanalysis #videogameost

Today I am joined by a very special guest, MarcoMeatball. We sit down to talk about our shared love of Video Game music while we dig in to some of his wonderful insights as to why music plays such an important role in some of the games we both enjoy so much from Final Fantasy to Ace Combat. We also chat about some of the exciting new videos that he is working on that we can look forward to.

Thank you so much Marco for being a part of the pod!

Please be sure to follow him for all the amazing work that he puts out:
