We've got exclusive interviews with our awesome Dance Central choreographers, as well as with Rock Band 3 Senior Designer Sylvain Dubrofsky, who gives us the gritty details about what Rock Band Pro is all about. After that we divert from our norm and forego the DLC Roundtable for the Rock Band 3 track list roundtable! We discuss the 22 tracks that have been announced thus far.
Mr. Pope sits down with Chris Foster (HMXSlappy) to get the full scoop on Green Day: Rock Band. If you offered up questions about the game on the forums you'll want to listen in. HMXSlappy covers everything from mo-cap techniques to song selection to design insights.
Saddle up and hit the streets with this week’s podcast. We’ve got two new additions to our “So You Want to be a Game Developer” series with Audio QA Vocal Lead HMXPardo and Audio Manager Heather Wilson.

Fresh off our latest trip to Austin, Texas for the SXSW Festival, the Community Team comes in hot with some tremendous podcast content for you.

We’ve been super busy this week! Can you handle all of the big news? RBN! Gaga! RB3! And wait, there’s more - it’s a podcast! First up, we’ve got a super secret interview with HMXKfan. He’s out at GDC this week talking to people about how to break into the industry. If you can’t make it to GDC, no worries, you can get his tips here on our podcast!
This week's episode is full of awesomeness! HMXHenry has a fun chat with HMX alum Bret Rouse about being a non-musician at Harmonix. Then we get to part 2 of my riveting interview with Dan Teasdale, this time answering user-submitted questions from the Rock Band forums. Finally, the secret of Awesomeness Detection is OUT! And finally, we wrap things up by giving you the lowdown on next week's Rock Band DLC.
Warning, the first three rows will be in the splatter area – we're making a mess! Well, an auditory mess – our extended DLC roundtable this week features singing! Before you let your eardrums be assaulted though we've got some great segments for you. Meet the newest member of the Community Team, Kyle, also known as HMXDropslash. Mr. Pope also has the first in an incredible two part interview with Dan Teasdale, Senior Designer here at Harmonix. Dan answers questions that members of the Rock Band community have been dying to know – so grab your tarps and tune in.
If you somehow missed all the cool stuff that happened last week, then you MUST listen to this podcast. It's work hard, play hard, all the time here at Harmonix. Kat interviews the residents of HMXWebtowne about the blood sweat and tears that went into the launch of RBN (now officially in public Beta!). Pope, Thrasher, Henry, and Alex recount their adventures at NAMM (that's the National Association of Music Merchants) and throw up some jazz hands. TheBestSteph is back with more "Stuff We Think is Cool." (Spoilers, gigglegent HMXKfan is involved!). Finally we've got a DLC roundtable to tidy things up.
