Video Game Music Appreciation: Where two nerdoms collide

Sonichuman · November 11

Upon reading up on this one ^. This track came from an remix album for Megaman X that was separate from OCR's website

Apparently they've done albums for other games on there...might be worth a check out.

Edit: Also realized that I had already posted this a month ago good lord.

picked up all of the Destiny soundtracks from the Bungie store earlier. It was around $55 for all of the music up to and including the newest expansion, Beyond Light. The file downloads were nice and beefy too, offering MP3, FLAC, and Apple Lossless in each. I can put the mp3s up for download somewhere if anyone's interested, just let me know.

I haven't heard much of Destiny's music though I know that Martin O'Donnel was involved at first before he got booted. What are some solid tracks from the game?

I think Dr. Wily Stage 1 from Mega Man 2 gets way too much attention but I cannot hate on that above remix. That was fire.

Pixel Mixers make some of the best albums. I've been listening to them for about two years now and I don't think I've heard a single album from them that I didn't like.

Yeah it does get a ton of attention and that can be contributed to the catchiness of the original arrangement. We already know that though lol. If I think its a good mix/arrangement I post it up regardless of how much popularity a source track gets.

I'm playing through Dragon Quest 2 right now, and I have to say that the music is amazing

It's amazing how beautifully a lot of these songs back in the 8-bit era were written and arranged, and how well they translate to a full orchestra.

When the main menu music is a banger, you know the game soundtrack is about to be good!!

VGM Friday contribution

This showed up in my feed and I looked into it and it's an actual remix of 'Devils Never Cry' from 3 that's included in a DMC V SE Vergil Sound Selection CD that got released in Japan

Interesting version of this track with the vocals really cleaned up and crisp and the arrangement brings the vocals forward more. I'm trying to see if this cd has the variant of 'Bury the Light' that plays during the end boss battle but the information I'm seeing is inconclusive. Siliconera has a track list up that doesn't have the variant on the list but when I search on youtube someone put the sound selection up and it's among the tracks the guy has up.

Guess I'll just wait to see if Sittingonclouds picks it up and go from there.

VGM friday. Ducktales 2, the other not so popular sequel but still I loved it. I would love it if they remastered this like they did with the first game but do it with the style of 2017 as a neat way to compliment the change from the old cast to new cast.

Hyrule Warriors AoC's music has been great so far. Really love what they did with Mipha's theme.

Hey uhh...every track you posted was the same. Just thought I'd give you a heads up.
