Title
QUEST STUDIOS SIERRA SOUNDTRACK SERIES
Description
In 1985, after discovering the personal computer and computer gaming, I was thrilled to learn of their potential and profound interaction with the world of music. I immediately bought a modem and became a member of "PC Link", which years later became known as America Online. It was there that I met my wife, Dianne, who introduced me to the world of electronic music. Within the next few years, Sierra On-Line, Inc. had introduced MIDI soundtracks into their games -- and became a dealer for Roland's MT-32 MIDI Sound Module. Dianne had already been using the MT-32 in her teaching profession.
Dianne and I began composing MIDI music together, swapping files via email. We soon formed a collaboration (which we then called, Quest Music) and composed hours of music together. I discovered Sierra's MIDI music with the release of King's Quest 4, Space Quest 3, Police Quest 2, Silpheed, and Leisure Suit Larry 2. I just loved the music I was hearing in these games and decided to record the MIDI tracks and create my own little library of Sierra music. Since MIDI in computer music was rather new in 1988, I didn't know of anybody who would be able to use these MIDI files or who I could share them with. That soon changed as Dianne and I became Forum Hosts of PC Link's MIDI Forum. I was able to create a section devoted to the MT-32 and computer gaming MIDI music.
Years later after leaving PC Link, the Internet began to emerge. In 1994, we connected with a local ISP and immediately setup a web site for computer gaming music. We changed the name from Quest Music to Quest Studios, to encompass other aspects of our lives. (Graphics, video & animation, needlework, and music.) Finally, in 1997, we acquired the www.QuestStudios.com domain and became a full-fledged Internet identity.
