BMD’s top 5 video game soundtracks

Well, I guess it’s about time I make a top 5 video game soundtracks list…this isn’t going to be easy. Here we go!

When I think of a video game, probably one of the first things I think of is the soundtrack. A soundtrack can really immerse you into a video game or ruin the whole experience for you. Usually when you play a game you don’t really notice the music in the background because it isn’t anything special. Then there are those games that have an okay soundtrack where a couple songs are memorable but the rest are pretty mediocre, like DDD stated with Link’s Awakening and Tal Tal Heights. Finally there are those few games that knock the ball out of the park and make you want to dance uncontrollably when that soundtrack starts playing, which is probably Banjo-Kazooie for me but DDD so kindly stole that one. In this list, I’ve stuck to the games that have soundtracks which change the gameplay and without them the game wouldn’t be nearly as good as it is. Anyways, enough of the cheesy intros. Lets get on with the list!

BMD the Apprentice

Hello folks. My name is Brendan, but here on the webernets I go by the alias BMD. I have been invited to co-found DLC Diaries!

This next year I’m going to be a freshman in high school, hence the apprentice title. When I get out of high school I plan to study Music Theory and Audio Engineering in College. Currently I produce 8-bit chip tunes and electronic music in my free time to practice my craft. I also play percussion instruments including the marimba, snare drum, and drum set.

Aside my love for music, I’m a video game freak. When I was a wee child, my siblings had a SNES with a few gems and a crap ton of Disney games. I think the first video game I ever played was The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past with my brother. I was to little to understand the story and how to play it so I’d watch him play it whenever he visited my family. When I got a bit older I’d play video games all day, including games like The Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong Country, Ratchet & Clank, Super Mario Brothers, Metal Gear Solid, and many, many more. Yeah, I had a lot of free time.
