Post image
76 Upvotes

Like the title says, if you look at my top 9 ost's of all time, what game would you reccomend for its soundtrack and you would think suits me? i'm open for any genre of game, i just dont like very modern music like electronic, rap etc. 9 bit is another thing tho, love the nostalgic feeling it gives like in undertale/delta rune. another 9 bit ost i really liked was megaman battlenetwork 1 through 6. just didnt make my list sadly.

So let me know what you think and give me some suggestions. looking forward to it!

With the death of Bioware, I am also mourning the death of Dragon Age. I just wanted to share how much I love all of the OSTs (especially the first 3). Inon Zur is a god among men. What was your favorite song from the series?

I played the demo of 10 million pixels on launch, and somehow I'm still replaying it just for the music!

I'd love to know if there are more artists who make music similar to this, I could sleep to this.

Also, tell me if anyone has done something like this before. I'd want to see that.

I feel that I associate buddhist-themes songs with a melanchollic, slightly eerie atmosphere. Does anybondy have some reccomendations on vgm that are or match this kind of theme?

Extended HOWWWW do I loop video game soundtracks like in the game

7 Upvotes

I genuinely don't understand why I can't find this ANYWHERE?! So I like to listen to video game soundtracks but can't always find the 1 hour extended versions on Youtube. And on spotify there's usually like a weird pause or the intro plays again and it sucks. I feel like there HAS to be a way to play the song and it loops nicely like in the game. Is there a specific audio format used with "loop points?" Or is it just manually coded in? is there any way to find out the specific point where the song restarts in a game's files? (If it's different based on the game, what about Terraria?)

Discussion What is a genre of music that you feel is under represented in video game soundtracks?

22 Upvotes

I've been listening to the soundtrack for the Hylics games, and I really love the experimental surf rock vibe to it. It's a kind of music that you just don't hear that often, and I wouldn't mind if more games try to take inspiration from it. About the only other game that I can think of that soundtrack reminds me of is the Neverhood and Skullmonkies.

Are there any genres of music that you'd like more games to adopt or take inspiration from?

Composer Looking for Work Breakdown of my work for Psyvariar 3

Hey, check out a quick breakdown of three of my tracks for the game Psyvariar 3, released this year. In this playlist, I go through some passages and highlight some parts, providing comments on the process.

I apologize for any typos you may find. It's been harder for me to deal with ADHD lately and there's also the possibility of dyslexia, all the while spellchecking simply stopped working for the video editor. I hope I was able to convey the work process despite of that.

If you like what you hear and wish to have me in your projects, please, send me a DM.

Discussion What classical music have you heard in a video game soundtrack?

33 Upvotes

Recently, I've been listening to some game OSTs that feature arrangements of classical music. This got me thinking about how classical music is used in video game soundtracks. As an avid classical music and video game soundtrack listener, it's always nice to hear a familiar classical piece pop up unexpectedly in a soundtrack or to hear how the music has been arranged for a game.

From soundtracks I've listened to, here are the ones I've noticed:

- Hirozuka Tanaka using the Can Can by Jacques Offenbach for the Super Mario Land Invincibility BGM.

- Hirozuka Tanaka using Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy by Tchaikovsky and the Carmen Overture by Georges Bizet in Tetris (NES and Game Boy).

- Spiralmouth using The Blue Danube by Johann Strauss II in Crash Twinsanity.

- Yukio Kaneoka using the opening of Eine kleine Nachtmusik by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart for the Game Start music in the NES version of arcade Mario Bros.

- The Sims 3 using several classical pieces including Handel's Water Music, Suk's Barcarolle, Schubert's Trout Piano Quintet, Tchaikovsky's Symphony no. 6, Franck's Violin Sonata and a few pieces by Mozart (either Piano Sonatas or Divertimento no. 17).

- Fauré's Dolly Suite Berceuse used in the Wii photo channel slideshow music.

Are there any other instances of classical music being arranged for video game soundtracks that anyone has noticed? It would be interesting to find out and hear some of them.
