Still, I really liked it and after the first several hours with the game I couldn’t stop humming its cool 60’s spy flick music. It’s a terribly inconsistent game when it comes to being spotted which makes the experience more frustrating than it should be. There’s something in CounterSpy’s visual style and soundtrack that more than compensate for its gameplay flaws.

Volume III is simply his most polished and professional work yet and well worth checking out. Chopped and looped with layers of fresh drums and beats, he’s reinvigorated some of my favorites and introduced me to so many new soundtracks. It really was that simple on Cutman’s earliest works but for 2015’s Volume III there’s a lot more going on. While I love the wildest deconstructions of music I also appreciate the simple art of adding fat beats. There’s also a bit of mystery around the collective which I’m eager to see revealed in 2016 because it means more of this astounding music won’t be far behind! V-Jams pushes familiar themes to the edge of recognizability and then noodles over them with amazing jazzy style as the minutes unravel. It’s not because V-Jams’ renditions are ultra-authentic to the source material, far from it. V-Jams’ style hit me so hard back in August that it made me feel like a video game music virgin as if no one had ever rearranged a video game tune before. As such the infectiously catchy music has been in my head all year long and I love and hate and LOVE it!Īrrangement Album of the Year: V-Jams by V-Jams It’s a peculiar combo of punishing retro platforming and modern, free-to-play design that I can’t seem to get enough of. versions almost every single day from April on. I don’t know how many hours I spent with Spelunker in 2015 but I kept up with the Japanese and U.S. Runner Up: Minna de Spelunker Z/Spelunker World Even the licensed tracks used only in trailers leading up to its release stick to the overall vibe of the game. If you still love listening to a soundtrack after spending 200+ hours with it, you know it’s something special! While the storyline of MGSV may be all over the place, the music - from original score to mood-setting ambiance to licensed 80’s pop songs - holds true to the game’s themes of pain and revenge. Game Soundtrack of the Year: Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Painīy: Ludvig Forssell, Justin Burnett, Harry Gregson-Williams, Daniel James, Rina Yugi, Steve Henifin (Kojima Productions), Donna Burke, Stefanie Joosten If, for whatever reason, you just can’t bring yourself to leave GameLuv I’ll do you a quick recap of my picks. I even think it turned out pretty well so you should probably check it out over there. Pardon my link bait but I already did a recap of my favorite game music from 2015 over at Original Sound Version. That’s too much music.” Kaz… I’m already an audiophile.” On a side note, Metal Gear Solid V now has four official soundtracks: The 2-disc Original Soundtrack, the Vocal Tracks album with all the vocal themes from the series, an iTunes exclusive Extended Soundtrack with 5+ hours of music and now The Lost Tapes. Expect many more photos, an unboxing video and probably a review over on OSV when it arrives in a few weeks. Of course, it also comes on a CD because let’s not be totally crazy here. If there’s one playlist I’d pay $50 to hear coming out of a cassette tape in 2016, this is the one.
Somehow I missed the news and the thing’s been out in Japan for a month so I quickly jumped on the Limited Edition package this morning at Play-Asia. It’s finally real, official and (most importantly) better mixed than my recording! The soundtrack that people thank me for uploading to YouTube on a daily basis. The soundtrack that is hidden around the game’s open environments on cassette tapes tucked away in remote camps and dark corners. You know, the soundtrack I spent a week recording and editing out of the Companion App. Would you look at this little beauty right here? Not only is it a Metal Gear Solid V soundtrack on a cassette tape that looks just like the ones in the game, it contains the soundtrack I’ve been after since the game was released.
