Dan Renton Skinner is a legend on the British comedy scene. Not only has he provided roles and performances in a wide array of TV shows, stage works and films, but he's well-known for his hilarious character, Angelos Epithemiou. Through his work with Vic and Bob on Shooting Stars and House of Fools, he's found a greater exposure for his considerable talents. He's even branched out into straighter acting lately, with turns in both Notes on Blindness and High Rise. Dan speaks to Lee about his career, and British comedy in general!

![THE SOUND TEST #05 - The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth (w/RIDICULON) [COMPOSER INTERVIEW / PODCAST]
This second part of The Binding of Isaacs musical story moves into its remake, Rebirth. This version of the game received a makeover in practically every area, including music. Its new soundtrack by RIDICULON took a different path to Danny Baranowskys, but hit the nail on the head in brand new ways. Here, both Jon Evans and Matthias Bossi go into detail about their approach.

![THE SOUND TEST #15 - Super Meat Boy 5th Anniversary (w/RIDICULON) [COMPOSER INTERVIEW / PODCAST]
When Super Meat Boy hit its fifth anniversary, and saw new ports for fresh consoles, the decision was made to give it a musical respray. After Danny Baranowsky, who wrote the games original OST, and Team Meat had parted ways, RIDICULON became the obvious choice for the job. Along with David Scattle Scatliffe and Laura Shigihara, the four composed music that stood on its own and reinterpreted the tone of gameplay. Here, Jon Evans and Matthias Bossi (who together form RIDICULON) join me to discuss Super Meat Boys 5th Anniversary soundtrack.
This episode follows up last weeks, which features Danny Baranowskys perspective on his original SMB score.

![THE SOUND TEST #11 - GoldenEye 007 (w/Grant Kirkhope) [COMPOSER INTERVIEW / PODCAST]
As the N64s third bestselling title, GoldenEye 007 needs no introduction. Its probably the most influential first-person shooter of all time, and still shows up in lists covering the best of its genre. The games music sails through famous Bond themes and motifs with a cool, electronic edge suited to every step of spy work. A collaborative effort between Grant Kirkhope, Graeme Norgate and Robin Beanland, GoldenEye 007s soundtrack was one of the first to show the new capabilities of the N64. Unfortunately, I was unable to schedule interviews with Graeme or Robin, but Grants back on The Sound Test to offer more of his insight!

All of Steve Colletts music for Crash n Burn!
After a respectable career in VGM, Steve Collett eventually had some of his music licensed for use in MotoGP: Ultimate Racing Technology 2. His band, V8 Pack, had a perfect sound for hi-octane racing games, and their album - At the Earths Core - worked brilliantly with the fast-paced action. So, in a very short space of time, Steve composed music in the same style for Crash n Burn; this time written specifically for the game.
