Welcome back. Can't wait to hear that Dragon Quest VIII post. You'll definitely have my tentative ear for that podcast. Every thought to do a special or mini for Wild Arms? You would have me captivated for hours on that game series alone. Quite late, but…

Welcome back. Can’t wait to hear that Dragon Quest VIII post. You’ll definitely have my tentative ear for that podcast.

Every thought to do a special or mini for Wild Arms? You would have me captivated for hours on that game series alone.

I enjoyed the music, but it always bugged me a little that it sounds slightly echo-y, presumably from being recorded in a concert hall and not being intended for use as in-game music.

Into The Score is the best podcast that I ever heard in my life. Hopefully I have discovered it! Seriously, I am so happy you are back. It is embarassing and dumb to say that but I was afraid you face some serious problems IRL (like... death ?). I am so relieved ^^ Keep the good job, Kenley, I do look forward to hearing from you. ;) PS: Did you received the mail I sent you 2-3 months ago ? What Des the Bard has written made me cry.

It's informative, educational and entertaining without being overly technical and alienating to those of us that were not classicaly trained in music. It is a way for all of us to learn and enjoy VGM without feeling like we are in school. I believe this is an academic study of VGM but it is academic without being boring or difficult to understand. You have a large variety of listeners. Some have studied music a lot some a little and some not at all. For you to put together a show that can reach that many differnet levels of education, teach and entertain all at the same time is a feat that most billion dollar TV companies can't accomplish. You should be proud of what you do and how you do it. I know I am a proud listener. Thanks for all of your hard work and it's great to have ya back. Kenley,

If the tag-line is giving you existential angst, then go ahead and change it. ;) I know how terminology debates can get in - well, in academia - so do whatever makes you feel right.

Anyway, it's good to hear from you, and I am (as are we all) looking forward to whatever is next.
