Video game music but it's math (love the fact this is 4/4 but you've got all these bonkers polyrhythms going on)

As our backlogs grow and we struggle to keep up with everything that's out there, it means a lot of amazing game soundtracks can fly under the radar. Incredibly grateful to everyone who took part in this and shared some genuinely amazing words to big up their peers in a very noisy year.
Thank you to Andy and VGC for being a home for this every year. More than 50 game composers contributed to this, including @lena.fyi , @awintory.bsky.social , @jukio.bsky.social , @amosroddy.bsky.social , @teelopes.bsky.social and many more! I hope people discover some bangers from this.

I'm excited to reveal I'll be joining Nordic Game 2026 for a conversation with Laced Records Matt Ombler about my musical journey, creative process and scoring Warhammer Darktide. @lacedrecords.com @fatshark.se @matombler.bsky.social @nordicgame.com #warhammer #Darktide
It's an honour that Nintendo has chosen Laced as their partner to release The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild soundtrack on vinyl. This is the first time Nintendo has commercially released a game soundtrack in the West!
Long live Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Love live video game music!
Starting to see pics of the Silent Hill 2 vinyl land with customers. Hope everyone enjoyed the added extras we didn't mention like Mary's Letter and Photograph! A lot of time and care went into creating this and the team at Laced absolutely smashed it.
As far as emotional impact/saddest video game goes, I don’t think anything will ever top the ending for Life is Stange. That Foals Spanish Sahara sync is just fucking phenomenal.
Some amazing insight into Lorien's journey as a composer here.
God bless NTS
Massive congratulations to Lorien Testard and our client Sandfall Interactive for winning the Game Music Award at the World Soundtrack Awards!

Oh how the mighty have fallen
Hades 2 soundtrack is fucking ridiculous. Forget 2025 being a year just for great games; this is the same year we got soundtracks for a new Mario Kart, Hades, DOOM and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33!
Give this a listen if you want to learn more about what goes into creating a GRAMMY-winning video game arrangement and the amazing communities surrounding video game music covers and arrangements!
Dunno who needs to hear this but just found out PlayStation Plus Premium subscription includes access to 100+ movies via Sony Pictures Core.
