Analysis
I'm reading an interview with composer Masato Nakamura. He was the bass player from a pop band 'Dreams Come True', and he wrote the music on an Atari (ST, presumably). Here is a surprising part of the interview:
Nowadays, you'd just be able to send the data through email, but at the time, I had to record onto cassette. (laughs) The sound engineer would then listen to them, and reproduce them for implementation on the Genesis. Then, they'd send me back a bare game chip, and then I'd listen to it and check it. It's sort of unthinkable, now, but at the time, we just did that over and over until we got to the finished product.
