Retro Vaultz Podcast Features Chase Bethea on Episode 8

I recently sat down with Illmassacre and Alpha of  RetroVaultz podcast to discuss my video game music career odyssey, my new book, and the realities of building a career in the video games.

In this episode, they asked me about the blueprint for longevity and growth in a competitive video gaming field. Here is a look at the core topics we covered:

• Book Launch: An inside look at my new release, Student of the GameNavigating a Decade in the Video Game Industry

• Industry Insights: Practical strategies for navigating the modern video game industry.

• The Origin: A semi-breakdown of my earliest influences that brought me to be a video game composer.

• The Mental Shift: Why I do not support the phrase “Imposter Syndrome” and what you are actually experiencing

• Behind the Pages: The raw reality of what it truly feels like to finish writing a book.

• Mental Health: Actionable ways to sustain your well-being in this highly competitive and oversaturated video game

• “Career Stones”: Reflecting on the exact feeling of winning my first major video game industry award.

• Scale & Vision: What it will realistically take for me to build and manage a team.

• Special Shoutout: A direct callout to my peer, @HipHopGamer.

BIG Love Alex aka Illmassacre for booking me. One of the real ones that gets it done and is a true supporter of the work.
