/mu/ - Music (Temp full images)

Almost anything by Jesper Kyd is often overlooked but the guy knows his shit. One of the best composers out there in my opinion.
Hong Kong Underground still makes me sweat.

>>54108900
wow, op is totally muh nigga.

if i didn't play this game when it came out who knows if i'd turn into ambient and dub techno

>>54108951
Frankly, it's absurd how indecipherable that album is as videogame music rather than a professionally-produced ambient techno album you'd find lurking on /mu/core charts.

And the ATMOSPHERE, holy fuck. I could probably go on for about six paragraphs about this OST, goddamn.

This, Jesper Kyd is such a great composer, wisdh they kept him for Hitman.

NeoTokyo's ost is pretty widely appreciated.

Summer Carnival '92 Recca has one of the most amazing soundtracks I've ever heard. It's a straight 10 if you like lo-fi bloops.

>>54109250
All of those 90's epic soundtracks were great. UT is pretty good too.

Foregone Destruction gives me feels.

>>54109250
>>54109434
Same composer
Alexander Brandon was so based
He also did Deus Ex and Tyrian

also one of my favorite games of all time.

>>54109434
yeah ut had a great ost, though I kind of preferred 2004's ost
also adventure games had amazing soundtracks
especially sam and max

>>54109508
yeah Deus Ex had an amazing ost, especially the UNATCO theme

>>54109508
Dang it, I never played or heard about tyrian 2000 until now. That soundtrack is pretty sweet.
Thanks for sharing, anon.

Not sure how appreciated it is already, but Snake Eater had a great soundtrack

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZ_KNLRCl3U

I'm not talking about the bond theme intro - the more ambient stuff is based

>>54109508
>>54109647
Deus Ex: HR has a surprisingly good OST.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=huThukXpzPA
Prime example of an underrated OST.
>>54110073
The original Deus Ex had a better soundtrack, but HR was still pretty good.

>>54108943
Why isn't he doing Assassin's Creed OSTs again, his work on AC1, 2 and Brotherhood are fucking god-tier

>>54110848
I didn't like his Assassin't Creed score as much as I did the Hitman ones.

>>54110884
Are you sure about that

>>54111038
Well fucking played.
Hope they hire him for Hitman 6, the lack of his music in Absolution just made that game even worse than it already was.

The soundtrack was done by Billy Howerdel (A Perfect Circle) and Dean Menta (Faith No More, Sparks) with additional assistance by Danny Lohner, Eric Bass, Josh Freese, Atom Willard, Joey Castillo, Paz Lenchantin, Troy Van Leeuwen, and Wes Borland. And it also features some Queens of the Stone Age tracks.

>>54111100
I agree. I was pretty skeptical when I saw the first few trailers. When I read about that Jonesy won't be doing the music, I dropped it completely and I still haven't played it.

Let's just admit that IO is not the same anymore and hope that Hitman 6 never happens. You gotta let it go, anon.

>>54111196
>implying playing with the sound up

Goddamn Ginger's rooms

>>54111237
It is happening, they confirmed it a while ago, said it was a return to the sandbox gameplay of the originals
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitman_(video_game_series)#Upcoming_Hitman_title

Game is shit though.

>>54111971
I'm still skeptical about it. Shady ass Square Enix.

>>54109139
heh?

I doubt any of you plebs actually played this Russian (nothing Russian about it, tho) sci-fi space strategy masterpiece, but anyway, the soundtrack is seriously amazing, like ambient techno stuff reminiscent of early Aphex Twin SAW 85-92.

Also every Megami Tensei OST not called Persona 3 & 4

Hardly overlooked but no vidya music thread is complete without a mention.

While I don't think Revengence had a great OST it's very laudable to make a dynamic soundtrack. It's revolutionary, I can't imagine how any game wouldn't be improved by it.

As far as fantasy soundtracks go, the Dark Cloud series is amazing.

Definitely my favourite boss music of any game

And last but not least, the main theme https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s48v-vtH65c

I know I'm a gigantic faggot, but I really dig these games.

Payday 2 has an incredible soundtrack as well.
