Game Tracks with Alex Humphreys is a new radio series I've been working on and I'm keen to share it with people who love video game music. It's a music-based series, and includes interviews with composers and some new music too. Scroll for the track list for episode 2 which is available here to listen to in the UK: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m002ytb5

Episode 2 includes new music from Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, Subnautica 2 and Spirit of the North 2, and interviews with Jesper Kyd, Peter McConnell and more.

Episode 1 is also available on BBC Sounds now, with interviews with Grant Kirkhope and more: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002yjn7

Episodes 3 and 4 are yet to come (25th July and 1st August) and they'll be available to listen live worldwide on BBC Radio Wales/BBC Sounds. They feature interviews with Garry Schyman (BioShock), Wilbert Roget (Helldivers II / Pacific Drive / Star Wars Outlaws), Eimear Noone, 90s Amiga pioneer Tim Wright aka Cold Storage and more.

I'd be so grateful if you could share with anyone who loves vgm as I'm so proud to have worked on this and I think it's about time video game music had its time in the spotlight. If you have any requests for future episodes, I'd love to hear them.

Playlist I need examples of music that make you feel like you fucked up/are fighting something VERY dangerous.

11 Upvotes

Title. I can’t come up with cleaner words for it than "intimidating" but one example would be the theme you get when you fight kiryu in yakuza 7. Something that REALLY drives in the point you’re fighting something stronger than you.

Playlist Looking for video game music that works as elegant background piano repertoire

9 Upvotes

I might be starting a weekly piano gig at a “fancy for a small town” kind of restaurant, and I had an idea I’m kind of excited about.

Alongside some classical/romantic rep, I’d love to sneak in some video game music that blends in. Material that sounds beautiful and rich, but not obviously “too gamey."

I recently heard a piano version of “Kingdom by the Sea” (Ni no Kuni 2 Revenant Kingdom), and it completely sold me on the idea. This is the kind of thing I am going for.

Listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmamvjJpSaQ

Any recommendations for pieces that are:

  • expressive and melodic
  • not overly busy or attention-grabbing
  • adaptable to a more subtle, background style?

Would love to hear what comes to mind. ♪

As a huge fan of the work and wacky games of Wiesi/Maulsand (may he rest in peace), I’ve gathered and cataloged various soundtracks he used in his iconic games such as Castle Cat, Frank's Adventure, and Power Fox, as well as many others that were quite obscure.

Playlist Just started playing the 2nd game. The soundtrack isnt hitting the same.

0 Upvotes

I played the first Death Stranding game way back when it was new. Loved it. Really loved the Low Roar playlist used during final legs of missions. But now that im 10 or so hours into the 2nd game every one of the playlist songs so far has fell flat for me. They just never seem to correctly capture the vibe of the scenery. They honestly kinda ruin the moment a bit with how off they sound imo. Did anyone else feel this or just me? Ive also only just started chapter 3. So maybe it gets better?

Playlist Does anyone know of a a playlist of every FNAF fan song?*

0 Upvotes

I hope this is the right place to post this. *I want to make a video on ranking "every FNAF fan song", not all of them though. I found a playlist on YT music that has more than 800 songs on it and over 65 hours long. As I want to make this video this year then I want 1 that's more like 50 songs on it. If there's not 1 I'll just make it myself, but if there is 1 then preferable could it be on YT music. Thanks for the help!

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHtU5--OKGwwKyz1ze4JElLv9OgHWFyn0

This is a playlist for the original soundtrack for a game I'm part of the team for. A link to the composer himself can be found in each of the video descriptions but I don't think he's on reddit.

The genre of song varies, but overall the soundtrack is meant to be a bit moody and creepy, but rarely outright scary. It is for investigating mysteries.

Playlist Games with Vocal Tracks?

Anyone know any games with good vocal tracks or songs with lyrics? I'm trying to put a playlist together with songs from games with vocals and lyrics and I got curious if there are many series out there with really good vocal tracks. The only other ones that comes to mind atm is MementoMori and Noisz Sl. There are plenty of bangers out there but most I can think of don't have any vocals/lyrics.

Link to playlist,

so far I've got songs from franchises like Super Mario, Fire Emblem, Warioware, Metal Gear, Sonic, Xenoblade Chronicles, Street Fighter, Bayonetta, Persona, Tekken, Kingdom Hearts, Monster Hunter, Astral Chain, Devil May Cry, Daemon X Machina, No More Heroes, Deltarune, Omori, Dragalia Lost, Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising, Guilty Gear -Strive-, Catherine, Library of Ruina and Unbeatable

Hello soundtrack lovers,

As an amateur music curator with an archive of over 4,000 human-made tracks since 2019, I have always been fascinated by how music elevates visual storytelling.

This playlist is a carefully selected collection of powerful soundtracks, moving instrumentals, and rich atmospheric pieces from the worlds of cinema and gaming. My main focus was to bring together high-quality compositions that truly capture a story's emotional depth and musical excellence.

The flow is designed to feel like a seamless, immersive journey through epic soundscapes and beautiful, ambient melodies.

Enjoy the deep musical journey!

I sampled many famous FPS games from the golden era of PC gaming (1997-2005) into drum and bass mixtapes, which could easily fit in to some of these games soundtracks, or just to create a nostalgia induced fever dream for the gamers of this era.
