“ From the Sega Master System / Mega Drive and SNES days through to modern-day console and PC gaming, I’ve always found escapism and inspiration by diving into hundreds of titles. I’m a lover of FPS, RPG and Sci-Fi Horror titles such as DOOM to Silent Hill and Resident Evil.
“Gaming has inspired so many of my musical projects and albums. It’s a dream come true to be able to produce a computer game based upon my own music and it’s such an exciting opportunity to help spearhead a new crossover medium for music and gaming consumption – I can’t wait to see where it leads us.”
