Let’s not beat around the bush here; SEGA games have always had the best music. End of. There is no argument. SEGA composers and musicians have always got the absolute best out of their limitations (back in the pre-32 bit era) and have gone on to make fantastic compositions worthy of greater attention. Why game music is not regulalrly on sale in the West is beyond me because things like Video Games Live have proven there’s an audience.
Enough. This update is about SEGA music. Songs like Skies of Arcadia’s title theme show exactly why game music should not be frowned upon. This piece is beautiful.
