If you’ve ever seen (or more importantly heard) the Nickelodeon series Invader Zim, then you are familiar with the work of Kevin Manthei.

You can listen to my interview with Kevin by clicking HERE. It’s an MP3 file (about 23 minutes long).

In the interview, Kevin talks about his workflow, his favorite types of projects, and has some suggestions for people who may want to pursue music for animation as a career.

If you want to hear more of Kevin’s work, be sure to visit his website, where he has tons of downloadable MP3’s and samples of many of the projects he has been a part of.

Enjoy!
