trans mom, wife, composer. The now-retired speedrunner who asked the axiom verge dev "why?"
SNES composer: Hm. The player is only going to be fighting this boss for maybe a few seconds, right? Makes sense to compose a track that long. Plus, this will save a lot of space on the cartridge.

You ever play Solstice? The game's not that great; a slightly enhanced version of all those isometric view puzzle games for the ZX Spectrum. But it's almost worth buying for the music at the title screen alone. It's got this whole Gentle Giant, ren-faire thing going on and it lasts for minutes, which is HUGE for a BGM track in an NES game.
Dude Tim Follin is fucking insane. A youtube comment says it best. "It's cool that all these Tim Follin albums come with a free game."
