Brian Coburn is an American 'composer' and 'sound designer' known for his work with Sega, as well as winning the Masters Degree in Earrape And Fart Synthesis (narrowly beating Steve Hayes).
In 1981 Brian attended the University of California, Santa Cruz and graduated in 1985, which many claim was due to Brian's own manipulation of the exam results through drowning out those actually marking the exams with the annoyance of his own 'compositions'.
His video game music career began at Sega when he joined them in 1992. While working there, he composed some music for them but mostly ended up making sound effects, many inspired from his various times idling around on his laptop wanking off in the bog on ICQ and having a big shit at the same time.
Unfortunately for him, he was given the sack in 1997 when he was found guilty of using his bodily functions as sound samples and remixing others' sound effects into undecipharable loud noises post-localisation. Brian no longer composes video game music (did he anyway?) but continues to suffer from extreme constipation, among other things like drilling holes in his neighbours' garden fence to the tune of the Sonic Spinball options theme.
Music Composition
32X
For Doom, Brian obtained the original files from Bobby Prince. He used GEMS for the conversion, which took him about thirty minutes of an evening well spent farting his arse off in the STI loos, essentially turning them (and the masterpieces he was working on) into a pile of stinking, lingering shite.
Genesis
Brian used GEMS, the program used by most composers at Sega of America, because he was a lazy fucking twat who didn't know how to use an FM synthesiser beyond making it have uncontrollable diarrhoea.
