4mm Games, a newly announced New York based studio made quite a splash last month with the unveiling of their first original title, Def Jam Rapstar. Joystiq was lucky enough to snag an interview with company CEO Nicholas Perrett and discuss the genesis of the name 4mm, multiple title development, and music games in general.

 

Here's an excerpt:

 

Is 4mm a one game at a time sort of company for the time being, or are there other projects in the pipeline as well?

 

No, we intend to be working on many titles and indeed already have a second property in development. For those that know Jamie King, he is an exceptional talent whose creative ideas are brilliant and inspiring, so we find ourselves constantly mining and exploring new game concepts that we hope to incubate and bring to life. It also helps that CEA Autumn, our backers, very much are buying into us for a slate vision so having that support is really beneficial.
