I know you probably love a dozen tracks, please pick one, thank you in advance.
EDIT: Thank you all so far, especially everyone who kept it to one. I am at work currently and will make my way through the list but may not get a chance to thank you individually. I am checking them all out though and appreciating it.
The album this track is on is amazing as a whole. It’s like a musical journey around the world. It’s a beautifully cohesive album start to finish.
I like Life is Strange 1’s sound track tbh. Tony Hawk and Grand Theft Auto and Pokemon and Mario all have some excellent music too.
edit: Wow, I forgot a word, and it completely changed the meaning of my sentence lol
Stickerbush Symphony - Donkey Kong Country 2
Dang, I was late by a minute
Haunting
If you like chiptunes, “the moon” from DuckTales does a great job at instilling a sense of adventure. If chiptunes aren’t your thing, here’s an orchestral version
The Spine - Transistor OST.
There’s 3 versions, though… The soundtrack version with lyrics, the game instrumental, and the humming version.
Most of the tracks in the game have at least 2 versions, music is kind of a central theme of the story.
The opening to Chrono Cross https://youtu.be/923fVDDwaHo?si=uJ6IVP9B_nH_pUo2
and the sequel that references it: Hades II - The Silver Sisters
Unreal Tournament Soundtrack - Foregone Destruction (Facing Worlds) Wait until the DnB kicks in. Monster Kill
The complete OST has to be my go to music for when I need that extra push. Such bangers.
Slinger’s Song - from the game Bastion
I heard this song first on this Sauerbraten race-vid, I haven’t played the original Bastion game.
Bastion has a slew of great soundtracks and environments, and I found the story very impactful. Highly recommend trying the game if you can!
