Level 244: Steve Pardo (Cypher 007)

Level with Emily Reese

Composer Steve Pardo got to write music for one of the most musically famous franchises of all time in Cypher 007, the newest game from James Bond. And it's great! I love how the soundtrack fits seamlessly into the fabric of the stealthy Apple Arcade game.

Steve and I talk about how neat that is, how great John Barry's original music is and a lot more in this week's chat.
