Koboto Music

"In this episode, we discuss; the origins of sound design for film, some of the career highlights of Ben Burtt, The ARP 2600 and how it was used to create the 'Voice' of R2D2. I also use the modular synths that I have in the studio to re-create the sounds of R2D2. Thanks for watching!"
