NO ENCORE travels to the wilds of County Clare (actually very peaceful, to be honest) for one week only as Dave Hanratty interrupts his time off to jump into a different studio – with the blessing from afar of Sonic Architect Adam, of course. Local boy Daithí returns to the podcast, with his faithful drummer and operations manager Alex Ridley for company. With their powers combined, the trio boot up and download accordingly as they get into the intriguing world of diegetic music in video games. But what does all that mean, you ask? Essentially, any time music is actually in a scene rather than scoring it - something a character interacts with, creates, or is aware of. Yes, it's going to get very nerdy on this episode. ACT ONE: Catching up with all things occurring in the world of Daithí O'Dronaí. ACT TWO (9:08): A rare live music opportunity sees Dave break out the gig calculator, Sabrina Carpenter offends the devout, Metallica take the blood money, Kiss Korner returns in dramatic fashion, The Hives plot world domination, and Eminem goes digital - it's the news. ACT THREE (36:36): Top 5 Diegetic Video Game Music.-Visit Daithí's websiteFollow Daithí on Instagram // Twitter/XFollow Alex Ridley on InstagramBuy Tickets to Daithí & Elaine Mai's Improv Show @ The Workmans ClubVisit The Beekeepers websiteVisit Common Threads website Hosted on Acast.
