Mitchell Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Zelda: Majora's Mask is hands down my favorite video game music. Quoted for truth. Also, any game with music composed by Grant Kirkhope has great music. The Banjo games, Goldeney 007, Perfect Dark, Donkey Kong 64. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sum1 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Super Mario Galaxy (amazing...) Chrono Cross (reminds me a little of Barber's adagio, only not nearly as good) Final Fantasy Grand Finale Phantom Train (I'm a violinist, if you haven't figured it out yet ;)) Aria di Mezzo Carattere (LOVE this piece) Not QUITE as cool, but still cool Chrono Trigger/Cross Medley (this NEEDS to be orchestrated sometime) (really cool, but the bass line just bugs me a bit) (that drum line again...) (needs better vocal patches)Fire Emblem — Etude in F# Major (OCRemix)I also like the violin solos in NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams, anything Shadow of the Colossus, anything Michael Land (Monkey Island), and anything Michael Giaccino.

Murr Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I'll always be a sucker for Final Fantasy soundtracks, but lately I've been really into the soundtrack for Ragnarok Online 2, by Yoko Kanno. Never played the game, but the music is some of my favorite Kanno stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark_dragon Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 My favourite song from a video game at the moment is "Midna's Desperate Hour" from Zelda Twilight princess. So beautiful. More complex to play than I thought though, left hand is interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nacnud Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 The mass effect music is really excellent. Also, the music to the original metal gear solid is really good, its a good blend of action and mystery and creepiness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yachar Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 I like the music of one Martin O'Donnell. He has done music for Bungie - so for Halo and Myth series for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A. Tell Reial Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 All four of the final boss themes from FFVIII are awesome (as are the Parade theme and the Dollet Invasion theme), and the theme from the Via Purifico in FFX dwarfs "In Zanarkand" in my mind. The Tales and Star Ocean games all have great soundtracks, too. Fable has a really nice soundtrack, but everything is kind of overshadowed by the main theme by Elfman.

PSaun Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 I'm a big fan of video game music as its what inspired me to start composing. I really love the soundtrack of Donkey Kong Country 2 there's some great stuff there (esp. the main motif which is in almost EVERY piece). Megaman X's music is an awesome example of what rock music can be. Poke'mon Red/Blue and Gold/Silver. Reminds me of my childhood I often listen to the original chip tunes when I'm feeling down. Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age. I have an mp3 file of Golden Sun's overworld that I go listen to when I go running in the fields behind my house. The soundtrack of the whole series is just fantastic. There's so many others I love but these are what pop into my mind first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
