Command and Conquer still graces my playlist.

I'm looking for great computer game music... Which games' music/sound has made a lasting impact on you?
I really like the two (too me) sad main themes in MOO2... What else can be worth checking out?

C&C has some great music

It would be more helpful for people making a decision on whether or not to download those songs if they were labelled. What game, what song...?

Baldur's Gate 2
Civ2
Civ3 (yes even the modern age)
BG2 has awesome music. I can't hear it without being right THERE in Amn for the first time again.

CTP2 - put the disk in a normal cd player and skip track1 which is computer program related, all the other tracks are very ambient and excellent.
Because of a bug in the game - the music in-game loops the same track over and over, so this is one way i like to listen to all the excellent tracks.
EU2 has some great classical and medieval tracks on it(over an hours worth!), i put them in a playlist and run it on the desktop when i want to feel cultured
Shogun/Medieval total war(probably Rome too) - again i mix some of these tracks into the EU2 playlist to add a bit of variation.

The first four are remixes from Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger, the fifth is "Battle Theme" by the Black Mages.

I loved the soundtracks of the Ultima series, especially VI and bot parts of VII. Despite being only MIDI quality, they fit very well in the ambiente of the game.
Best ever are (in this order) Colonisation, Settlers, and Monkey Island.![]()

EU2
Rome: Total War
Civilization for Windows
Civ2

The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing. - Zephaniah 3:17
I don't really see how anything relating to EU2 and the total war games could be considered nostalgic.

This song, while being a remix from a game I've never played (Robocop for the gameboy) is basically the epitome of old video game music for me.
I mean, when there's only four notes it's not like it really matters what game it's from.
When you think how people where brought up listening to this kind of music and playing games where you have to obsesively collect things ang what not... it's no wonder that so many gamers have OCD.

speaking of, I still remember the jumpman jr. music for my commodore 64. I played that game alot when I was young. I tried desparately to get to the higher levels of that game. It takes a lot of concentration. something I don't have. I always mess up and die somewhere along the way.

I looked at what other people voted, and decided this had become a mixture of nostalgic and good music.Originally posted by General Ludd

very easily. Its now 2005. I first heard Renaissance music in the late 1970's. So when i hear Renaissance music on EU2, I feel nostalgic.Originally posted by General Ludd

I dont feel nostalgic FOR EU2, of course.

On the other hand, SC4's music cannot be categorized as "nostalgic"...

Another vote for ColonisationI think the amiga version had much better versions as well, the pc at the time was definately a 'bleepy, bloopy' gaming platform

Ok, what if a distinction is made between good computer music and "good old" computer music?
The latter may be something that really makes you think about your early gaming experiences, or recall a much more naive (and simpler?) gaming era... It's this latter kind that I search for...

If you want good "old" music, try Demon Stalkers on a Tandy 1000.![]()

Tropico had some good tunes if that's not too modern.
