Daniel Albu sits down with George “The Fat Man” Sanger to trace his legendary career as one of the pioneers of video game music, from the early days of the industry to his enduring influence on its soundscape.

They discuss his breakthrough work on iconic titles like The 7th Guest, Loom, Wing Commander, and Maniac Mansion, and how he helped shape the identity of game audio in an era of technical limitations and creative possibilities.

as seen in the game: https://youtu.be/9WcD7ZDTYyo?t=84

notice the pattern of the arrow keys, the up and down keys to the right of the main arrow keys, and the top row is somewhat visible too but much darker, you can see the last 3 keys on the top row are spaced apart from the rest

just use ScummVM to play T7G and T11H

This was streamed live before but unfortunately had audio issues. This version of the video has fixed audio.

A recent let's play from someone who knows the game pretty well!

The 1990s was a time of rapid change in the tech powering video game graphics. From pre-rendering, to ray casting, to texture-mapped polygons, it seemed that a major innovation was around every corner.

However, the pathway towards graphical realism hasn't always been clear. Let's explore one such forking path: full-motion video. With CD-powered consoles and home PCs arriving in the 90's, FMV-powered games became viable at last, promising the world... but only delivering oddity after oddity.

In 1995, George "The Fat Man" Sanger composed this tune for The 11th Hour. It was supposed to be the main theme, like "The Game" had been for The 7th Guest, but George couldn't get the lyrics to work. So he scrapped it and wrote "The Final Hour" instead, which became The 11th Hour's theme song. This tune instead became the music heard during the train puzzle in The 11th Hour.

For our album "Soup's On: Selections from Stauf's Infernal Jukebox," George went back to his old notes and finished the lyrics. Here, for the first time, is the original theme song to The 11th Hour, with vocals by our very own Jackie Stewart.

One of our most audacious tracks on Soup's On is this medley of "walking around music" from The 11th Hour. This one combines everything from jazz and swing to blistering industrial metal. https://youtu.be/EXPH_wKw1h8

Noticed this during a stream today, with some interesting text in the game.

(wow, they talked about online patients in 1998?)

New video from The Cellar [Taigen Moon]

In 1998, after FMV had already been buried, the last hero of the failed genre hit the shelves... and no one played. And those who did, didn't like it. This is Tender Loving Care, with John Hurt!

Excerpt from a well-known TV show hosted and created by Stewart Cheifet featuring George "The Fat Man" Sanger, the same year he was composing for Putt-Putt Saves The Zoo. It discusses one of his biggest contributions to game audio, "Fat Labs" certification, and Putt-Putt Goes to the Moon makes an appearance.
