>enter Med Sci>blood pumping drum and bass jungle fusion thing starts playingWhy is everything boring orchestraslop now, why don't we have cool game soundtracks anymore?
>>750282391Because game composers don't use MIDIs anymore, that's why there's 0 memorable modern Nintendo songs.
>>750282391All games now are made by faggots who wish they were making movies and so they do all the things that make movies shit.
>>750282781What does DnB/Jungle have to do with MIDI sequenced music?
>>750282391For me, it's Med Sci 1, Engineering 1 and Ops 2https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtdQ5roMuEA
>>750282997The question was "Why is everything boring orchestraslop now"
>>750283165Sure, if you totally ignore OP's given example of the music style he misses.
>>750283225Get checked for autism
>>750282391Taking chances is no longer allowed.
>DemasterNOOOOOOO
>>750282997Probably mistaking midi for tracker.

>>750282391I don't understand why they had to desaturate all the new textures

>>750284337they aren't, the lighting is just smoother
>>750284117>ad hominemcomposers using MIDI less often has very little to do with a shift in music styles in modern vidya. DnB in 2000's vidya was was rarely MIDI (if ever), so saying it's the fault of MIDI falling out of fashion is wrong.
>>750284403shut up retard
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ur1RkjPPIWQi always loved the command deck hangar track, its weird its a locational track like the weird garden jingle
>>750284396>>750284326glad this isn't allowed anymore just imagine what the investors and shareholders would think
>>750284268A lot of the DnB scene today still uses trackers, their workflow is easier for drum slicing than a modern DAW
>>750284719Yeah.https://youtu.be/mCRibm4kOaE

>>750284981never noticed that ride cymbal panning until now
>>750285172don't forget *while skating
>>750282391A few things to note: video games never stopped wanting to be like movies and so orchestral music became and still remains the standard, people equate orchestral music with high art, old video game music had more in common with popular electronic music, video games used to be more tapped into popular youth culture of the 90s and 00s, there used to be more sci-fi games being made in general where electronic music suited the setting most.
>>750285407The UT soundtracks super generic for the time but I can understand there's a lot of nostalgia for this stuff because the tracker scene was full of real talent.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRs5ufGPiTYThe Ion Fury ost is all tracker as a recent example.
