    About this Episode

    Drained is the latest game from For Amusement Only Games, and will be releasing soon. I wanted to discuss the creation of the soundtrack for the game with the composer, Charles Wolf. Charles has composed music in many different styles and types for a huge array of projects.  He is a very positive and professional collaborator, and I had great fun working with him on the sound design for Drained!  I can't wait for you all to hear it! We discuss his background, method of composing for Drained, the difference between creating sound effects when compared to full musical tracks, and some of his other works.   Intro: Drained Attract music. Outro: Drained High Score music.   Venturer One - Lofi Scifi Concept Album - Charles Wolf Music Website  Soundcloud Music Portfolio:  Twitter:    Email:
