I can't believe it.

Max has asked me to move in with him.

I mean, you practically live with each other already, but that's great.

Did you hear that, Joe?

Yes, thanks for letting us know.

I see you've updated your universal credit claim.

Now you're going to be living together.

If you're telling other people about a change in your circumstances, tell us too to avoid a penalty. Search tell DWP. Hello and welcome to the

Retro Hour podcast episode number one to four, your weekly dose of retro gaming and technology

news with me Dan Wood and me Ravi Abbott.

And welcome to this week's podcast. Now, we do come out every single Friday and we try and get

everything into a concise one hour in this show. And we do pack in a lot into 60 minutes, I think,

on this podcast. It is crazy. And it kind of makes it like a little bite size portion. You know,

you've got your news section and then

your interview. It works quite well. And I'm quite amazed with the amount of guests that we're

getting from listener suggestions at the moment. So if you're on Discord, please suggest guests

because we've been running out of ideas. We've been doing this for how many episodes now? Two and

a half years now. We're running out of people that we want on. And you guys have started to suggest some wonderful people like David Crane and just fabulous guests that we've had on. And we've got an amazing one for you today. And I mean, just before we get into that, David Crane, you mentioned them. We've got some number two in the iTunes checked out last week. Yeah, yeah. That's incredible. You are on Discord, if you're not familiar with that, that's essentially, it's like a cross between a chat client and a forum for gamers. Yeah, you can leave messages and we've got different sections. So come on our server and introduce yourself, but also please suggest, like, anything you want on the show. You know, it doesn't have to be a guest. It could be a live event or it could be just us doing something totally crazy. No, a news story or something. It's all appreciated, guys. So if you want to get involved in that, there is a link to our Discord page on our website, The Retro Hour.com. Now let's talk about the guests that we've got lined up this week. This is Mark TDK Knight.

Oh, Mark Knight's amazing. I first met him in Germany, actually, and he was playing violin, but with chip tunes and kind of playing alongside them. But he also worked for

mindscapers, the audio specialist, he worked for Bullfrog Productions, EA sound team. He's a BAFTA award winner and, you know, he's done the soundtrack with Feene Park World and just loads of amazing, fantastic titles. And he's working with Rob Hubbard at the moment as well, isn't he? Oh, he's doing the Project Hubbard, yeah? Which, you know, when we hear more from Mark in the interview coming up soon, he tells us how, you know, Rob is really one of the guys

that is responsible for getting him into, not only electronic music, but also getting him into making music for games and that kind of thing as well. So this is kind of a thank you to Rob, which I think is really cute that 30 years later he's now kind of working with his hero essentially. Yeah, yeah, it kind of comes full circle, doesn't it? Yeah, so Mark TDK Knight, really good chat,

ranging pretty much from those early,
