It's consistent for Tim Follin but it's unusual for the games he's being hired for. Really the only thing I can think of for Tim Follin that is an actual video game he composed for is Silver Surfer, everything else was some weird shit like Jimmy White's Cueball or Pictionary for the NEWS
Most of the games Tim Follin made soundtracks for were garbage or borderline shovelware.
Likely the end result of some Faustian bargain he made to be able to do what he did with the hardware of the time.
Ecco the Dolphin was unironically great, all 3 games.

The games range from mediocre to terrible but the music is unusually good in comparison

I promise I'll get around to beating Shining Force one of these days.

I knew about Skaven, but not the others. I can check them out.

I get music when it's displayed like this and not sheet music. What kind of autism do I have?

Not the guy you were talking to, but I can give you an example:
This is the entire soundtrack for Tower of Heaven. It's decent, but every single track is "Same-y". What you posted kind of feels that way. Nothing really memorable, just a blob of "ok"
Why does new Captcha have to suck so bad? 6 characters+ harder to read.
I guess the satisfaction of looking at the notes and individual channels is what gets to me.

>Did someone from Future Crew and/or Purple Motion do the music? I get those vibes.
No but it's got a similar vibe because Epic Megagames used tracker music for their lineup as opposed to MIDI or Redbook CD Audio. If you're looking for similar tracker artists you could listen to stuff from Skaven, Vogue, Lizardking, & Radix.

this should be good

Did you actually listen to any of it? I feel like maybe at most you sat through 10 sec of two of the de Blob tracks and called it a day.
Otherwise you would be able to use the music that was actually posed as your example instead of having to reach for a complexity unrelated OST that happens to already be in your schema.
>oh yeah, the music (You) posted is all the same because Sakuraba always composes samey sounding tracks
like, come on.
Payday 1/2 is a big one for me. For such janky and goofy games, the soundtracks are some of the best OSTs of any game I've played. I've been listening to Payday music outside of the game for 10 years.

Do you expect the soundtrack for a remake of a Flash game, composed by a dude who calls himself "Silly the Willy" to be good? Probably not
Do you expect a throwaway 3D platformer IP for the Wii, developed by a team you've never heard of before and published by THQ, where one of its notable points was that the credits' theme was recorded by a literal high school band (tho that track, as expect, is not that great) to have a good OST? Probably not
Do you expect a random Indie puzzle game you certainly haven't heard of before (Full Bore) with an OST composed by a fricking hipster from literal Portland Oregon (who is such a fricking hipster that they specifically forbid the music they've made from being on Youtube unless it accompanies video of a gameplay recording where they music plays) to be good? Probably not.

I remember it being about as good as the first game, but it's been a very long time since I played them both and they might be getting mixed up in my memory
anything by tim follin
If everything he makes is good, then how is it unusual? isn't it consistent?

amiga is the pinnacle of good music, bad game
so many amiga games have top tier music but the game is just garbage
Oh STFU newbie mutt
>buzzword buzzword
lol
Rather then get angry, why don't you name some worthwhile Amiga games anon.

Telling some idiot mutt to STFU is a thread prerequisite, you wiener splash

Jurassic Park for gba had the same soundfont from them.
Meant GB sorry.
That second track was on the NES game as well.
>captcha: JPWNN
>unusual soundtracks
You only need to listen up till 1:45. Give it a chance
Good part starts at 4:56
Battle theme from an h-game demo that came out. One of the hardest bops I've heard in vidya
a lot of h-games have really good soundtracks
that sounds straight out of Rocket Leagues main menu the frick
There's a reason they've done a rearranged of this track for every game in the series
Which is like 10 games at this point or something
i have a genesis remake version of that waterworld track and it's one of the hardest fricking songs i have ever heard.

Multiplexing the audio on a Gameboy must have been difficult without murdering its weak-ass CPU.
I've got a few:
>Mole Mania Beach Theme
>Finding Teddy Main Theme I'm kind of a gay for delay reverb though
>The Unused music for Hidden Palace Zone in Sonic 2
>One must fall 2097 Menu (GUS). It was a thread like this that introduced me to it.
>Battle of Olympus NES Password Screen
OMF2097 has fantastic music. Some of the best i've heard.
Did someone from Future Crew and/or Purple Motion do the music? I get those vibes.
I've been getting more into Psy and Goa and all that jazz. Mission 3 has that vibe
Genuine tracks please
That sure is unusual for the context of the game, but it's a nice track regardless.
I haven't thought about King's quest in a long while. I don't have a singular favorite, but the music is incredibly appropriate for the game

nobody expects the barbie game to have this sort of groove
I don't know why but this random Street Fighter 2 clone has one of the best 90s fighter osts I've heard
Manfred Linzner is an underrated gem.
because no one else has posted the classic
>0:00
>3:00
I actually like this theme a lot
any gbc/gba shovelware composed by jake kaufman
Unusually good?

de Blob was kino. How was the sequel?

Yes. "Unusually". That means not spamming 10 tracks of generic sameface music, you soulless spastic

I told you to frick off, irritant
Frick you eurogays for keeping this gem
i don't what this banger is doing in a edutainment game
... this has got to be a stolen Mega Man track.
right?
I have absolutely no idea what the frick that is, the cover art screams Chinese Bootleg, but the song is fricking amazing.
>ok lets have a listen
>immediate fart music
cmon man
a fricking Madden game has no business having a theme this good
Just your random nobody SNES puzzle game with a beautiful cover of Tidal Tempest. Nothing to see here.
Same composer as Final Fantasy XIV by the way.
