Anyone listen to game soundtracks?

[Lycosa]

Something I've discovered when playing dark souls is that they have really good soundtracks. Instead of the usual rock I now listen to these. Just wondering if anyone listened to these.

I'll be honest here..... yes I downloaded the soundtrack to ONE game in my life.... Portal 2. THE CAKE IS A LIE DAMMIT!

Geometry Dash.

Best " techno" game soundtrack ever made.


Final Fantasy 7. One of the best game soundtracks orchestra wise

I listen to all kinds of soundtracks. If you like game soundtracks you will like a lot of movie soundtracks. Lately I have been listening to The Division score by Ola Strandh, but anything by Hans Zimmer is going to be amazing for the most part. He does most of the big movie scores, like the Nolan Batmans, Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, Spiderman, Interstellar, Inception, etc. Other good game scores though are The Witcher 3 and Mass Effect. And for just good instrumental music in general check out Sigur Ros. They have done movie work but are an amazing world renown band.

I love Hans Zimmer's work. There for a while I was into Jesper Kyd's stuff. He did the Borderlands series and Forza 4.

My favorite style is by far the orchestras and just huge productions in general.

I always loved the C&C Red Alert music, and C&C Tiberian Sun. Nothing recent really comes to mind soundtrack wise though.

I made a whole pandora station dedicated to movie soundtracks. Hans Zimmer, Jerry Goldsmith, Bear Mcreary, etc. Itll come up with stuff from games, movies like Star Wars/Star Trek, Pirates of the Carribbean, Inception, Interstellar, LoTR/Hobbit, etc, just about any awesome soundtrack or motion picture score out there. Im big into soundtracks because most people are oblivious as to how much a soundtrack impacts the direction, pace and feel of a movie (or nowadays games too).

I downloaded GTA Vice city sound track before my trip to Miami years back

IMO Zimmer’s best soundtrack is either MoS or Inception. I never get tired of those two. Daft Punk did also a hell of a job for the Tron Soundtrack. Mad Max by Junkie XL is another great candidate.

My favorite Zimmer soundtrack was Interstellar so far. Music was at the forefront of that movie and had a huge impact. The Tron soundtrack was a good one too, almost forgot about that. The John Wick soundtrack was pretty good too.

I have a whole playlist of songs from different movies or just artists that are instrumental. I listen to that stuff more than I do any other genre.

Most final fantasy music is pretty nice to listen to from 7 on.

My wife was a music major before switching degrees in college and she listens to videogame, movie, and TV show scores pretty much exclusively, so i hear alot of different things, lol. She can pick out all of the odd/different insturments just by listening to the song, which i cant do so its cool. She also plays piano, violin, played oboe, etc. Ive played guitar for years so music is something we both connect on. Anyway, any final fantasy game, uncharted, tomb raider, divison, WOW, etc is all pretty nice to listen to if you're into that type of ochestral music, but by far my favorite is the sound track from dues ex. Killer soundtrack that one is. Also, the soundtrack from the Netflix show Ripper street, has been on my spotify Playlist alot recently. The song, "the weight of one man's heart" from the ripper street soundtrack probably has one of the most haunting violin pieces I've heard, lol.

Also, if you're into blues rock/progressive, I've been listening to highly suspects Mister Asylum album for like 2 weeks straight everyday... I just can't get enough of it for some reason, lol. Cheers!
