I have recently been in a big Rayman mood. I’ve been replaying Rayman 3, and I have also been reading a pretty great fan fic for the series called When the Tables Have Turned which I’ve been following for a good year or two now. Seriously, it’s awesome. Ahem, well, a time came when her…

Resonance: Highland
You may recall the post I wrote for the Isle of Skye theme from Quest 64, a game which manages to occupy a special place in my heart despite all its many flaws, probably thanks to a combination of nostalgia and the many, many hours I spent playing the game because I had little else…
Resonance: Isle of Skye
After Jacob’s Resonance post on the Dark Jungle from Jurassic Park 2 (the game, not the movie, silly people), he got me thinking about songs I have enjoyed from games that aren’t super great, and the first game that sprang to mind was Quest 64. I believe I had written posts on the game before,…
Resonance: Temple of Light
Riding the coattails of Hatm0nster’s post on Fable II from earlier in the week, it reminded me of one of the most lovely songs I’ve ever heard in a video game, and my most favorite song from the Fable series: the “Temple of Light” theme.
Resonance: The Dark Jungle
Image by Flickr User: Christian Haugen (cc) One of the most wonderful things about game music, and indeed music in general, is its incredible staying power. All it takes is a hint of a game’s theme to bring the entire experience rushing back! I was recently reminded of a old favorite just like that in…
Resonance: Scorch ‘n’ Torch
I know I’ve said this before, but I wasn’t a big fan of Donkey Kong Country Returns. I thought it was too difficult, and it didn’t stand up to the high expectations I had of a new entry to an old series I used to love. Well, I have since grown somewhat fond of the…
Resonance: Fly Me to the Moon (Climax Mix)
Dear Bayonetta, I’m sorry. I’m really, really sorry. I’m sorry that I once doubted everything about you, from your magic wardrobe to your keen wit. I’m sorry I lacked faith in your strength, your charisma, and your ability to make a hack n’ slash game rise above, far above, that to which we are accustomed….
Resonance: Metroid Prime Trilogy Intro Music
Image By Flicker User: Jorgen Haland It’s been awhile since our last Resonance entry, so this time we’re doing not one, but three most excellent pieces of gaming music! Specifically the introductory themes from Metroid Prime, Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption!
Resonance: Dark Creature Pursuit
Video from Youtube User: Soniman001 One game I recently had the pleasure of playing was “Rayman Legends”, a wonderful game that contains some of the best video game music I have ever heard. But, as I believe I have said before (and if I hadn’t, now you know), a song has to be more than…
Resonance: The End of the World
Video from Youtube user: Video Game Soundtracks A little while ago, I wrote about a song called “Night of Fate” from “Kingdom Hearts”, and today, I will be discussing another song that stuck with me from this game, the music that plays in the End of the World. The song is also found at the…
