off topic but I found it hilarious to read that and see that avatar right next to it...maybe I'm the only one?
on topic: I really liked the music from Sonic R although a lot of people hated that...I liked it, with or without vocals....I prefer the instrumental versions over the lyrical versions now, but I still like all of the songs _________________

This. Fire Emblem main theme is awesome.
Also, Tetris and Super Mario 1 through 3 and Bubble Bobble (best game EVER).
And, for anyone who would like to check them out, Machinae Supremacy. Not only do they use Commodore 64 chips in their music, they've also provided the entire soundtrack for Jets 'n' Guns (which is surprisingly a very good game, for as little known as it is) for PC. They also have some covers of VG music, mostly as medleys. Some of their songs have been made into custom charts that if I recall correctly are still available on customhero. And best of all, all of their work not available on disc is available, for download, for FREE, on their website. Note, however: not all of their music is VG related. _________________

Lot's of video game music is amazing, but i think, like any other medium, lots of the time it can be improved with a single thing: metal. And thus i present to you all the band Powerglove.
Here's a sample of one you should recognize pretty easily:
Mario Minor
And since I've seen quite a bit of Final Fantasy in this thread already, here's one of there adaptations from Final Fantasy 7:
Omnishred (We're gonna need a bigger sword)
I like this band alot because of how they take some really great melodies from old games like mario, castlevania, and tetris, and really ramp them up and out of their 8-bit era limitations. And it's all so metal. Here are some of my other favourites from these guys:
Vanquish the Horrible Night
Red Wings Over Baron
Tetris
More can be found at this channel. Enjoy! _________________

While I guess you could argue it's not true videogame music, I think the Black Mages' interpretations of Final Fantasy music is amazing. Rather sloppy live, though.

What are you talking about with metal improving videogame music? Metal seems to improve just about anything involving music..... _________________

Music is like candy, you throw out the (w)rappers.
People who rap aren't rappers, they're rap-ists, y'know, like art-ists. Which looks suspiciously like the word "rapist". |

EVERY single Street Fighter game (excluding the crappy first part) had a great soundtrack.
Yes, even the so-so EX games soundtrack was great. (Well, the first and third ones... The second EX game used none of the original BGMs from the first ones, and that's where the third one picked up again.)
My favorite Street Fighter soundtracks are from Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold and Alpha 3. In all honesty, every song on there, down to the character select themes and the continue themes, were great.
EDIT: I almost forgot about the Kingdom Hearts series.
The first one had a great soundtrack, but the second one took the cake. That piano theme for Organization XIII is one of the most beautiful Square Exix pieces I've ever heard. _________________

Not really sure how I stumbled across this thread, as it's sort of old, but listening to some of the stuff in his thread is giving me nostalgic chills all over. Particularly the stuff from Golden Sun : The Lost Age.
Also, Fire Emblem music is amazing.

I skimmed through the thread, and so far I've seen no one post this. SERIOUSLY?
Personally City Escape is my favorite song from any video game ever. _________________

Ha, I forgot about City Escape. Me and my friends used to randomly start singing the song... just whenever. It also has a really awesome bass part. And it's just an awesome song. _________________

You, good sir, win.
Dragon Quest VIII has some of my favorite tunes as well. It ranges from soothing, to frantic, to JUST FUCKING EPIC. Certainly made playing the game, which was amazing on its own, so much better. |
