My favorite aspect of this particular blog entry was the wide chronological variety of music that's shown here... 8-bit music like the Legend of Zelda overworld theme and Deliverance: Stormlord 2 as well as a Dreamcast game, Jet Set Radio. I typically focus on one game at a time or one era at a time in my postings, so to read and hear a wide variety of music in one post was really cool. I'm going to consider if there's a way I might incorporate a diverse time period of game music in a post or post series like this. Awesome.
This EuroGamer post is written by Paul Butler who runs a blog about video games. The game music feature of the blog is called Block Rockin' Beeps. I scrolled through and read some of these entries to get a greater feel for how Paul writes about game music. We come from a bit of different directions, with my writing perhaps a bit more musically technical because of my classical training background. Still interesting to see how someone else writes about game music.
If you've got a favorite video game music website or blog, leave me a note so I can check it out and see what others are saying and how they're writing about music.
