Thank you so much Josh! You will always be my favourite music composer of all time. I'm serious ;)

Did you make the Crash Bandicoot OST's with any other composers, or did you make all the 4 game's spectacular soundtrack 

This was one of the first songs from Crash I ever heard due to my playing the demo version of Warped with Makin Waves only on it.

wrrrrRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR *controller vibrates*

Sounds completely different to the console version. I can hear the ocean

This track is like a 'best of' of the 80s and 90s and I love it

Now I really wish that these pre-console mixes were used in the remake trilogy...

while listening to this track, I get the feeling of being in a water opark
