Quakecast #39 Dark Ambient Composer - Immorpher
Saturday Sep 28, 2019
Saturday Sep 28, 2019
Immorpher is a dark ambient composer who has generously offered his music to Quake and Doom mappers alike. His day job involves biophysics (making use of his PhD) - but at night he crafts disturbing soundscapes that fit perfectly in Quake's dark universe. This is a fascinating interview spanning music, science, Einstein, education, Nintendo 64 controllers and much more!
