Summary

Video Game Sound explores the often-underestimated impact of sound in video games, revealing how it shapes narrative and player immersion. The book traces the evolution of game audio, from simple blips to complex soundscapes, and highlights how sound design techniques can evoke powerful emotions like tension or nostalgia.

 
Intriguingly, effective sound design isn't just about background noise; it's a crucial element that elevates games into immersive experiences.

 
The book adopts an interdisciplinary approach, drawing from acoustics, music theory, and psychology to offer a comprehensive perspective on game audio. It begins with the history of video game sound, progresses through the psychology of sound perception, and delves into practical sound design techniques like recording and mixing.

 
Case studies of successful game soundtracks demonstrate how sound enhances gameplay and storytelling, making this book valuable for game developers, musicians, and anyone interested in the art of interactive audio.

  • Boats on the Marne - Jean Renoir's Critique of Modernity - cover

    Boats on the Marne offers an original interpretation of Jean Renoir's celebrated films of the 1930s, treating them as a coherent narrative of philosophical response to the social and political crises of the times. Grounded in a reinterpretation of the foundational film-philosopher André Bazin, and drawing on work from a range of disciplines (film studies, art history, comparative literature, political and cultural history), the book's coordinated consideration of Renoir's films, writings, and interviews demonstrates his obsession with the concept of romanticism. Renoir saw romanticism to be a defining feature of modernity, a hydra-headed malady which intimately shapes our personal lives, culture, and politics, blinding us and locking us into agonistic relationships and conflict. While mapping the popular manifestations of romanticism that Renoir engaged with at the time, this study restores the philosophic weight of his critique by tracing the phenomenon back to its roots in the work and influence of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, who first articulated conceptions of human desire, identity, community, and history that remain pervasive today. Prakash Younger argues that Renoir's films of the 1930s articulate a multi-stranded narrative through which the director thinks about various aspects of romanticism and explores the liberating possibilities of an alternative paradigm illuminated by the thought of Plato, Montaigne, and the early Enlightenment. When placed in the context of the long and complex dialogue Renoir had with his audience over the course of the decade, masterpieces such as La Grande Illusion and La Règle du Jeu reveal his profound engagement with issues of political philosophy that are still very much with us today.

    'Essential reading' RECORD COLLECTOR'Darcus Beese is a formidable cat' CHUCK D'An inspiration' ANNIE LENNOXThe must-read memoir from Darcus Beese - the first black president of Island Records and one of the greatest A&Rs of his generation. From growing up as a teenager on the streets of West London to running one of the biggest record labels in the world in New York - this is a truly remarkable rags to riches tale. Rebel With a Cause is the story of how a teenage apprentice hairdresser from Fulham worked his way up from teaboy to head one of the UK's biggest and most successful record labels, Island Records, signing and nurturing some of the greatest artists of the twenty-first century - from Amy Winehouse and Jessie J to U2 and Florence and the Machine.But this is also the story of a young man raised in musically fertile and politically febrile times. His activist parents Darcus Howe and Barbara Beese were tireless campaigners for racial equality at a time when racism was rife, not only on the streets, in schools and on the terraces, but also in the highest institutions of power. Fighting for equality - for himself and for his artists - has therefore been a key part of Darcus's life. This is the incredible tale of an indomitable leader, an industry pioneer and rebel with a true cause.
