In the mid-90s, Gary Corben lived in Rio sharing a flat with Kassin, then in an unknown local band but later to become one of Brazil's greatest producers working with Gal Costa, Caetano Veloso, and Gilles Peterson. Back then, Gary used to constantly write songs but could never be persuaded to do anything with them. But the songs would stick in Kassin's head and plague him for years. Over the following decades, Kassin would regularly ask "what about your album?" and Gary would shrug and say, "yeah, maybe, one day". Then, in 2018, Kassin played in London with members of multi-platinum Polish supergroup Mitch & Mitch and this time when Kassin posed the question, Gary said "Yes! Let's do it, but we have to do it in Poland with these guys." This led to recording Gods In Brasil at the Polish Radio Studios in Warsaw with the Mitch & Mitch guys and a bunch of classical sessions musicians and finishing off in Kassin's studio in Rio with some special guests. The record turned out so well that Gods In Brasil Vol 2 is already under way. The album touches on the classic sounds of '60s and '70s Brazilian records with nods to Gary McFarland on the way. The song "Juanito Caminante" is a favorite with Joao Donato who was a huge influence on the sound of the album. The arrangements were shared between Alberto Continentino and Ryszard Borowski of the Polish Radio Big Band. Thick cardboard cover with obi; 180 gram vinyl.

Great insight into an otherwise obscure world
Format: Hardcover
As someone who grew up playing blizzard's games for an unfathomable amount of hours I've always been interested into their inner workings, especially considering their downfall in recent years. This book holds a ton of information and knowledge, is well sourced, and is the work of someone with obvious deep familiarity with the industry and its particularities. Besides the information itself, the book it written in fun and interesting prose, and it keeps the rhythm fast and entertaining, so it reads more like a novel than a journalistic article. Overall, an entertaining piece of insight into a world that is normally quite unknown, even to long time gamers like myself.

Great insight on what happened at Blizzard but...
Format: Kindle
My main issue with the book is the lack of non-american stories that explained the bigger picture. As a former Blizzard dev, there's much more than what happened in Irvine and Korea, with Europe's office mentioned almost as a footnote, and nothing else from the other regional stories. Shame but I guess the book would've been double the size.

Insightful inside scoop of Blizzard
Format: Audiobook
An intriguing, well-written exploration of Blizzard’s history and its staff, from inception to modern day, and their design decisions, successes and failures along the way. I loved the many quoted insights, and learning more than just the surface level story that might be found on typical gaming news outlets.
