Game songs

Who here actually gets songs off of games they like? And if you do what ones do you have?

I mean things like Gerudo Valley (I don't know its real name) off of Ocarina of Time, or even remixes like Arctic Ambitions off of one of the original 3 sonics (The levels where he snowboards).

I was in a phase of listening to all the Hyrule Overworld themes a while ago.

That's about it.

Why listen to video game music when there is proper music?

 

He's right and I can't imagine wanting to listen to a piece of game music over a piece of proper music. Game music is just there to add to and compliment the experience of the game. Often I find the game's graphics/gameplay/story/ music are very inter-dependent and rely on one another to make a game complete. Taking the music away from that and listening to it on it's own just makes it seem odd to me. Although I can understand a few exceptions (Jet Set Radio I can imagine for example as Letty said) overall game music is pretty crap on it's own.

 

Also @ Kurtle which Game music has decent lyrics?

Don't be so narrow minded, music doesn't need to have lyrics to be good. That's like saying classic musics composed by the likes of Bethoven or Mozart suck. Also, good game musics are much more melodic and intricate than most musics nowadays that are made of some riffs and a guy singing over it. Game music is music, that's all there is to it. You have all styles of music in all styles of games. Pff.

I would if I knew somewhere decent to get them. I remember back in the early days of N64 I had a ton of rather cool midis people had made of game music. I've also got a few mp3s of remade music(i lost them now, but I had some metal metroid tunes) also got an ocarina of time/song of time 'techno' remix that I found in attempting to find the song of this short piece of awesomeness, and I also have some crazy bubble bobble techno jungle remix.

Other than that, no. I also really want to malo mart music, or an even better rendition of it if anyone's made one.

None....That's the point.

 

 

You know, people aren't saying all game music is great on it's own, I only like a few. e.g.:

Guile

Ken

A couple of Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 ones

Couple of Boss music from Wind Waker

Few OOT tunes

1 or 2 Streets of Rage 2 tunes

blah blah etc etc.

This also includes remixes.

I wouldn't say I'm narrow minded I just don't like game music nearly as much as normal music. I can imagine there being a few small exceptions like I said but on the whole normal music is just better in my opinion(decent normal music as well not generic indie/R & B shit)
