Banjo Kazooie sequel chances "better than zero but not much", says composer Grant Kirkhope


An interview with Banjo Kazooie composer Grant Kirkhope, discussing the possibility of a new game in the series.

Below is the full interview, where the self-deprecating Kirkhope discusses his thoughts on the future of Banjo Kazooie, Nintendo's new Donkey Kong game on Switch 2, and how his music represents nostalgia. I said I appreciate you've got your policies and all the rest of it, but by the time the credits roll in the movie to show the songs, the theatre's completely empty, everyone's gone, it's only me and my wife and my two kids sat there going 'look daddy's name!'. I'm a metal fan: when I hear Brian May or Eddie Van Halen play guitar I can spot it a mile off just because of the vibrato, the way they phrase, it just comes out of them that way.
