Music has always been an essential part of the gaming experience. From sound effects to orchestral scores, music takes many forms in the medium of video games. Join me, Jovan Kouakou, as I dive into a beloved field which we all have experience with but truly don't know.  This episode of Core of Score is all about my favorites. I'm new here and want you to get to know me through what I enjoy most about the field of composition in gaming.  I hope you enjoy and thank you for listening.
