What's up everyone! Nick and I were SO lucky to get a chance to sit down and chat with Musician and Composer Robert Holmes! Many of you will recognize his beautiful score in the Gabriel Knight series. But did you know he was ALSO the Producer for Gabriel Knight?! We dive into that amazing tidbit and more as Robert tells us his story in the PC Gaming industry, pushing the envelope of what music can and should be in interactive media, as well as his exciting Kickstarter project for Sequel!

We hope you enjoy this as much we did!

The band consists of Robert, his old friends and bandmates, and his daughter Raleigh Holmes. Their catalog is gorgeous, and they also provided music for Jane Jensen's Gray Matter!!!
