The Massachusetts Institute of Technology Press just published my book, A Composer's Guide to Game Music, and I thought you might find it interesting.

There's a good-sized excerpt from my book on its Amazon page (click the book's cover). You'll also see a video trailer for the book further down the page, and a list of the book's endorsements, including a strong one from film composer Harry Gregson-Williams.

The MIT Press describes my book as "a comprehensive, practical guide that leads an aspiring video game composer from acquiring the necessary creative skills to understanding the function of music in games to finding work in the field."

I hope you like my book. Over the next few weeks I'll be posting some supplemental videos that expand on the material from the book - follow my Twitter for notifications on when those videos get released (@winphillips).  Thanks!

Here's the link for the Amazon page: A Composer's Guide to Game Music

Ah I see there's a Kindle edition now.  Would be interested in reading it sometime.

If it inspires any composers to write SimAnimals-quality game soundtracks that can only be a good thing.
