gaggle64 Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 There had better be some Skyrim in here or there'll be hell to pay.
RedShell Posted March 15, 2014 Author Posted March 15, 2014 There had better be some Skyrim in here or there'll be hell to pay.There are gonna be loads of omissions as it's only a 2 hour show. Great that this is going on though, I bet loads of people that aren't clued-up on gaming (probably 99.9% of the Classic FM audience) are in a state of shock right now.
Ike Posted May 24, 2014 Posted May 24, 2014 There're doing 2 more shows today starting at 3pm. First part seems to be Square Enix music. http://www.classicfm.com/discover/video-game-music/concerts/
Ike Posted May 24, 2014 Posted May 24, 2014 (edited) Dat Zelda medley. A pleasant surprise, indeed. Sounds like they will play some Mario later. Wish they would do a Nintendo focused show at some point. Edit: Nope, it was Weegee's Mansion! Edited May 24, 2014 by Ike
Hero-of-Time Posted May 24, 2014 Posted May 24, 2014 I suddenly want to play Luigi's Mansion again.. Yeah. That piece was amazing.
Hero-of-Time Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 Another session hits next week. Just announced, next @classicfm video game music special with @Howard_Goodall will be September 20th at 5pm!
Ike Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 Haha, I was wondering earlier this week when the next one would be.
martinist Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Missed it the first time. Might give this one a listen.
hebilea Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 On right now: *EDIT* Gusty Garden Galaxy... gets me every single time. One of the BEST soundtracks of all time, although I love all of SMGalaxy's music. Good that we have Internet and I could find the entire soundtrack, because this, Super Mario 3D World and Mario Kart 8 soundtracks are the ones I love to listen the most at the moment (aaand LoZ: Twilight Princess here and there)
Serebii Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 And they brought the original Mario medley on <3 Just had Runescape and Command & Conquer too
Ike Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) Aw, I missed it. Noticed they have an article with the top 15 game soundtracks on their site. Edited September 20, 2014 by Ike
Serebii Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 Aw, I missed it. Noticed they have an article with the top 15 game soundtracks on their site. Wasn't Nintendoy enough for my liking, but they had some great choices. The Halo stuff always makes me smile, so epic.
RedShell Posted September 20, 2014 Author Posted September 20, 2014 Wasn't Nintendoy enough for my likingYeah, could do with being a bit more upbeat in general.Think I'm gonna contact them with some recommendations for that end of year special: [tweet]513387028097290240[/tweet] Stuff like... I'll obviously have to lie about release dates for the first 3. Everyone should send in MK8's Cloudtop Cruise as a genuine request though.

Goafer Posted September 21, 2014 Posted September 21, 2014 (edited) Looking at that top 15 list has reminded me that I'm seeing Distant Worlds (Live FF music) at the Royal Albert Hall in just over a months time. Much excite. Check the guy wailing on the triangle at about 1:00: Edited September 21, 2014 by Goafer

Although it's a controversial one due to not technically first appearing in 2014, but The Last of Us and Left Behind both have absolutely fantastic soundtracks. The remastered version only came out a few weeks ago, so I'm sure it can count for that reason. It's also on spotify, so I've abused the hell out of it on there. Amazing. Child of Light also has a few tunes that I thought were wonderful.

Child of Light also has a few tunes that I thought were wonderful. Did TLOU remastered have new tracks? I've only played the PS3 version, but it didn't really stick with me. While I can appreciate the quality of the more somber stuff, it's not really my thing to be honest. So yeah, I'd love for there to be more music like the examples I posted earlier in one of these Classic FM shows.

Left Behind has its own soundtrack and that was released in 2014. I love both, but then I am a fan of the sombre stuff and like a bit of variety. I can imagine the soundtrack fitting really well when you're driving in the dark and the rain.
RedShell Posted September 21, 2014 Author Posted September 21, 2014 I can imagine the soundtrack fitting really well when you're driving in the dark and the rain. That'd creep me out too much I reckon. In that situation I'd rather play this:
Fierce_LiNk Posted September 21, 2014 Posted September 21, 2014 That'd creep me out too much I reckon. In that situation I'd rather play this: Hnnnnnnnnnnngggg. Dat film Dat soundtrack Dat final boss fight (DRAGOOOOOOOOO) Dat training montage (both of them)(DRAGOOOOOOOO) Dat cold war theme Dat unexpected character death Dat ending speech Dat national anthem Dat everything!
gaggle64 Posted September 22, 2014 Posted September 22, 2014 (edited) Really need to find examples of a reasonable length and generally performed by an orchestra of some description. Really hope the Japan Philharmonic gives the new Smash Bros a once through like they have in the past. Edited September 22, 2014 by gaggle64
