Timeline

1918

His father Teddy (1918–2006) was a production executive working on, amongst many others, films by John Schlesinger and Alfred Hitchcock.

1953

Richard Joseph (23 April 1953 – 4 March 2007) was an English computer game composer, musician and sound specialist.

He had a career spanning 20 years starting in the early days of gaming on the C64 and the Amiga and onto succeeding formats.

Prior to working in games Richard Joseph had a fleeting career in the music industry working with artists such as Trevor Horn and Hugh Padgham.

He released one solo single on EMI and was part of the group CMU which released two albums (although Joseph was only involved with the second, Space Cabaret) on Transatlantic before evolving into jazz funk band Shakatak.

Joseph was noted in game audio for bringing "real" voice actors into a game for the first time (Mega Lo Mania), the earliest use of interactive music (Chaos Engine), working with established recording artists (Betty Boo on Magic Pockets, Captain Sensible on Sensible Soccer, Brian May on Rise of the Robots and John Foxx on Gods and Speedball 2), and featuring vocals in title tunes, which was revolutionary for the time.

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, he produced soundtracks for development teams Sensible Software and the Bitmap Brothers.

After working as Audio Director on Republic: The Revolution and Evil Genius for Elixir Studios (music composed by James Hannigan), both winning BAFTA nominations for Hannigan's scores, Joseph moved to France where he ran SoundTropez, a company offering next-technology soundtracks.
