New music sucks terribly, and I'm from the UK. I'm finding that I'm wanting to listen to game music tracks like the kind found in C&C, Emperor Battle for Dune and other game songs more than any music that's broadcasted, because those are tracks which have sweat put into them. How did music end up being so good and so various to repetitive (c)rap?

I do this too sometimes, but wouldn't admit to it outside of a nerdy gaming community like this one. If someone mentions game music in real life, I return my best blank stare. Think I might need to meet a few new friends.

Frank Klepacki is definitely one of the greats of computer game music, and his website has a very nice (albeit slow) jukebox with high quality copies of much of his work. Extracting the MP3s is left as an exercise for the student (hint: you need a list of tunes, some idea where the music is stored and some software). Now please excuse me while I see how loud I can play "Mechanical Man" at 3 AM before someone disrupts my power supply. This thread is now about our favorite video game music composers. Tim Follin is mine.
