RPGDot: What is your favourite project so far and why?
Ben Houge: Arcanum has probably been the most fulfilling computer game score I've written so far. The music was very satisfying for me and ended up being very personal as well. The string quartet we hired was top notch (they're all members of the Seattle Symphony), and it was a real joy to work with them. It was thrilling to hear my music come to life in their hands! The recording process was also a lot of fun; we recorded the score at Studio X in downtown Seattle, which is a wonderful facility. Lots of film scores have been recorded there, as have tracks by artists such as Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, and the Spice Girls.
