Interview: David Javelosa (Multimedia Studio Sound Director)

During first half of the ’90s, Sega was a growing company that poured lots of cash into research and development. At the forefront of this investment was its initiative to create one of the most modern audio studios in the industry, and to do so it assembled one of the best teams in the business. Alongside Brian Coburn and Spencer Nilsen, Sega also brought aboard David Javelosa as sound director. An experienced composer and musician, Javelosa quickly went to work, and the Sega Multimedia Studio crafted the audio for such CD hits as Jurassic Park. Sega-16 had a chance to chat with Mr. Javelosa about his time at Sega, and our Q&A session is something you won’t want to miss!
