Before Shawne Benson worked at PlayStation, she was a musician struggling to make ends meet. On Instagram, she still posts the occasional piano ballad, but these days, Benson says she’s found a new outlet for her musical passion: curating video games for the over one hundred million people who own a PlayStation console.
“I like to think of it like you're making a mixtape,” Benson tells Inverse, describing the mix of games she helps shepherd to PlayStation’s platform in any given year. “The feeling of ups and downs, with different pacing and vibes that create an overarching composition.”
