From humble beginnings as cheap electronic toys in the 1970s, video games have evolved into a multi-billion dollar worldwide industry, second only to television, and bigger than global sports, movies, radio, live and recorded music, audiobooks and podcasting…combined.
Today, video games can be comparable in technical and artistic quality to feature films. Over five decades, the technology developed to support high resolution video and audio, and video game music has become increasingly sophisticated.
On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE based on awesomely comprehensive music research by guest producers JOHN WEDGEWORTH and HUGUES of the NERD NOISE RADIO video game music podcast—ambient, electronic, orchestral and environmental music from video games, on a program called GAME SCORES 2.
We have music from the soundtracks of ECCO: THE TIDES OF TIME / FINAL FANTASY TEN / 3D MUSEUM / THE LAST STORY / FORECAST CHANNEL / SAMAROST 2 / ZWEI 2 / TWO DOTS / MYST 3: EXILE / OUT OF THIS WORLD / SUBNAUTICA 2: BELOW ZERO / STRAY /NO MAN’S SKY / CONTRADICTION / and MINECRAFT.
It’s another report on the fantastic immersive worlds of video games: GAME SCORES 2...on this transmission...of Hearts of Space.
