Let me tell you how a PlayStation in a Welsh recording studio sparked a three-decade journey into the rhythm-action genre. This is the birth of our game, Aaero2: Black Razor Edition<\/a>, which is available now on PS5..<\/p>\n

As the 90s came to an end, my band had just signed our first record deal and we were living at a recording studio in Wales, recording our first EP. One evening, with my guitar parts, the bass and drums already in the bag, the drummer and I noticed a PlayStation under the TV in the lounge. There were two games; Colin McRae Rally and PaRappa the Rapper. We played a lot of Colin McRae before deciding to give the other odd-looking game a go. That\u2019s where it all started for me and rhythm games. I\u2019ve been obsessed with video games since I was little. The revelation that playing music and playing video games had a crossover point was huge.<\/p>\n
