![The Batman - CHAPTER 3: The Mark of the Zombies (w/Commentary) [1943] @TheSoundTest](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/6yOSw-CLBG8/maxresdefault.jpg)
Uploaded October 2019 | Updated September 2026, 3 weeks ago
The third chapter of a 15-part serial released in 1943.
Batman and Robin set a trap for Daka's men, still on the hunt for their lost radium gun. Meanwhile, Daka himself continues his torment of Linda's Uncle Martin.
This is Batman's live-action debut, and it was especially important for creating and popularising Alfred Pennyworth as we know him. Before this, he was more of a chubby cockney wideboy. Otherwise, it's known for doing away with Batman & Robin's vigilantism and casting them as government agents at the height of World War II. As such, the entire Batman serial from 1943 is as xenophobic as you'd expect. But, there's more than enough intrigue here for a modern fan who's able to ignore some of the outdated attitudes on display.
I'll be live streaming a new Batman commentary every week until the serial's completed. You can join me for them on this bat-channel at 8pm UK, Sundays.

![SOUND TEST #12 - Left 4 Dead (w/Mike Morasky, Jonathan Coulton and Ellen McLain)[COMPOSER INTERVIEW]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/823F5mF8A4M/mqdefault.jpg "SOUND TEST #12 - Left 4 Dead (w/Mike Morasky, Jonathan Coulton and Ellen McLain)[COMPOSER INTERVIEW]
Left 4 Dead, a zombie infested first-person shooter, went into new territory for Valve in 2008. Hinging on a dynamic AI Director, the game reacts to your skill and movements by procedurally generating enemies, events and several other elements. Importantly, music is a huge part of that unpredictability. Mike Morasky eschewed a traditional score in order to play to the games strengths, constructing a complex system that organically constructs personalised soundtracks for each session. I spoke to Mike for this L4D 1 & 2 special, which also features the Witch herself (Ellen McLain) and Jonathan Coulton - a popular songwriter who contributed to L4D2.

![THE SOUND TEST 2 - #07 - The Banner Saga (w/Austin Wintory) [COMPOSER INTERVIEW / PODCAST]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/9NVtG4jxH5M/mqdefault.jpg "THE SOUND TEST 2 - #07 - The Banner Saga (w/Austin Wintory) [COMPOSER INTERVIEW / PODCAST]
After composing one of the best loved game OSTs of all time with Journey, Austin Wintory was left wondering what could inspire him with the same intensity. Known as a top authority when it comes to composing modern VGM, every project he scores offers a new opportunity to explore and innovate. But, when Stoic – a team of developers led by a trio of ex-Bioware staff – contacted him about their upcoming, crowdfunded game – The Banner Saga – Austin found a veritable wellspring of inspiration.
Following the mythic narrative surrounding a variety of Viking influenced nomads and warriors, the saga is a genuinely epic tale that adapts to player choice as it unfolds. At its heart, the world is one of legend, where the sun itself has frozen in place and dead gods litter the landscape. The story is mostly told through turn-based combat and branching dialogue, while the whole experience is constantly brought to life by strong writing, distinctive art and, most importantly for this podcast, a beautiful soundtrack that shimmers with subtext.

![THE SOUND TEST 2 - #05 - Hollow Knight (w/Christopher Larkin) [COMPOSER INTERVIEW / PODCAST]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/9bFWUn3DhBk/mqdefault.jpg "THE SOUND TEST 2 - #05 - Hollow Knight (w/Christopher Larkin) [COMPOSER INTERVIEW / PODCAST]
Team Cherry’s Hollow Knight, funded by a Kickstarter in 2017, is a prime example of the ongoing strength of indie games. Players quickly became enamoured with its masterful Metroidvania gameplay, brought to life at every turn by a strikingly unique visual style. It’s a title you can truly lose yourself in, through its dark, atmospheric environments and dense sound design.
Besides some individual character voices, the entirety of Hollow Knight’s audio is the work of Christopher Larkin. His soundtrack for the game is a perfect reflection of the dank surroundings you explore, and it becomes all the more immersive as it subtly changes depending on your movements. This episode features Christopher in his first Sound Test appearance, discussing Hollow Knight’s audio at length. His next episode, set for release in 2020, will cover Outfolded and Expand, two smaller games with their own fascinating tales to tell.

Super Meat Boy caused a platforming storm when it was first released in 2010. Its steep learning curve and devilish level design have made it something of a pilgrimage for fans of the genre. At release, it was Edmund McMillens biggest game to date — based off a Flash original hosted on Newgrounds. Among its most enduring features was Danny Baranowskys colourful soundtrack, which tumbles deeper into dark territory to match the gameplay. For the final time, Danny joins me on The Sound Test for a look at his multi-faceted OST and how it came to be.
This episode has a follow-up in next weeks look at Super Meat Boy: 5th Anniversary Edition (which invites RIDICULON onto the show).

Recorded straight from a PS5, my third complete run through of Radioheads Kid A Mnesia Exhibition.
Although Im pretty sure youre supposed to find this section as part of a regular playthrough, I also think its pretty easy to miss. At least, I missed it until right at the end of my stream. Enjoy what Im calling the Lyric Room!
Additionally, the end of this video features a big chunk of the Little Cinema bonus room, which feels like a perfect ending point. Apologies for the slightly jaunty cut though; Canal+ claimed a section.
