2025 NYX award Chase Bethea interview

As a professional video game composer with fourteen years of experience, this acknowledgment means a great deal. The NYX Awards are known for celebrating creative excellence across industries, and to be recognized again on this platform highlights the continued impact of my work in the field of game audio.

In the interview, I discussed my creative process, the challenges and innovations behind composing dynamic music systems, and what it means to push boundaries in a genre where representation remains limited. It was an opportunity to reflect on how my approach to scoring is shaped by both artistic intent and a dedication to advancing interactive music design.

For those interested in learning more, the full interview is now live on the NYX Awards website. I hope it offers insight into the craft and commitment behind each score and inspires others who share the same passion for game music.

Thank you to the NYX Awards for this feature and for supporting creative voices in the video game industry. Your recognition reinforces the importance of original composition and dynamic music design in games today.
