I don't know how to start this discussion, I have been wanted to put together a thread on this for a while actually. I'll start by simply saying I was fucking blown away by the effort Dan Romer put into it. He didn't just score the game, he created AN ENTIRE WORLD of music. And it seems like he didn't get enough credit for how incredible it is. To me it's the best modern videogame soundtrack ever created.
He made full albums of game music, choir music, and catchy open mic country pop versions of the songs, and they all are bangers that soon will be on your spotify or whatever you use. I use youtube premium combined with google play music, split with my brothers the deal is insane, check it out fer sure.
I'll pick 2 highlights from each catagory:
First let's set the mood with the best menu and loading music to have ever graced your city boy ears, and if you are an atheistic city slicker, this will make you want to move to the mountains.
The conventional ambient game music
"Now that the world is ending"
somber, beautiful, endlessly catchy. I drive through the mountains of my hometown Lake Tahoe playing this shit and it is a spiritual experience.
And the second track, "When the morning light Shines in" is more hopeful. If you don't listen till at least 1:20 you personally hurt ma feelins.
The Hope County Choir
Now Dan didn't stop there. He was genuine in his efforts, he needed cult music, and not cheap low rent music. Honest belief music. Shit, I grew up religious and always hated our churches hyms. If we had this kind of music I would have staved off pornography till maybe 13
Good lord this is the best music. GOOD LORD this game doesn't deserve such bangers as this. Here is another that will stick in your head.
Now for the open mic country bar version, or closer to studio versions I guess.
"Help me Faith" again but with a twist
and here is a version of "oh the bliss" which is incredible.
Feel free to add in your personal favorites, I didn't included them all since there are so many.
