The SEGA Lounge

Hello! I hope you’re all safe and as happy as possible these days. As you know, The SEGA Lounge is currently on break for the whole month of August. But I wanted to bring you some bonus content during the month so starting this week you’ll be able to listen to some short interviews I did back in 2018 as part of "The Manic Lounge" segment of The Manic Monday Show on RadioSEGA. This week, we have a legendary vgm composer, the marvelous Matt Furniss, known for many iconic game soundtracks, including The Terminator, Alien 3, The Lost Vikings and many more on SEGA systems. Enjoy the interview and come back next week for another bite-sized chat.

This week, I finally get to talk with a living legend of the Sonic and SEGA community. For some reason, it took me a long time to ask him to come on the show. Silly KC... Lewis Clark, aka Sonic Yoda, is the webmaster of SEGADriven.com and SonicYoda.org before it, our guest is an old school SEGA fan, a musician, a former RadioSEGA show host and more. His website and YouTube channel are personal favorites of mine.

Welcome back to The SEGA Lounge! This week, I’m talking to Andrew Dickinson. Andrew, is the author of the Dreamcast: Year One book, which was successfully funded last year through Kickstarter. Putting the book together spawned a few other projects for Andrew, including the Dreamcast Years podcast and, of course, a second book titled Dreamcast: Year Two. Along with a team of talented and knowledgeable contributors, Andrew is this time focusing on the second year of existence of SEGA’s white box. Dreamcast: Year Two is coming to Kickstarter on July 28th and I sat down with Andrew to learn more about his love for the console, the books, the podcast and to put his knowledge of the Dreamcast to the test.
