back to work and new concept.

After months without any updates to my blog, I've decided to make it alive again, mostly to practice writing again, and also to actually work on an idea I've had for a while now. I've always wanted to share some VGMs, because I love both music and video games, so this might be a good place for it.
I plan to present at least one VGM every 2 weeks, more if I have the time, will and material to work with. Shouldn't be much on an hassle though, so let's try to maintain this pace going.

N°11: Nuclear Throne : Fläshyn

It's been a while since the last post, but we're finally live again. New theme, new font, new background, everything is now nice and shiny, as it ought to be. And I thought I'd get things started again by telling you about a game I've spent 400h playing: Nuclear Throne. Back in june 2015, I bought this little game for the low price of 12,99€. And boy, that was money well spent. This game is crazy, fast-paced, unfair as hell and extremely hard, but also very rewarding and satisfying. But I somehow couldn't stop playing it; its simple yet addictive game play (grab a weapon, dodge bullets, shoot back, die because why not, and restart asap) was enough to keep me interested. But what would a game with good game play and lovely graphics be without a good soundtrack to back it up ? The answer is : nothing. And Nuclear Throne sure isn't lacking in the "awesome tunes" department. Sometimes creepy, sometimes sad, but always enjoyable, NT's soundtr...

N°12: Panzer Dragoon Orta - City in the Storm

While this is my blog, I've decided that once in a while, I'll have guests. Not out of laziness or lack of inspiration (I still have over 100 tracks to write about) , but because I thought it'd be interesting to see what others like, what they used to play, and what they have to tell. Because I firmly believe that no matter which kind of gamer you are, as long as you've played at least one game, you'll have memories. And it's very likely that some of those memories will be linked to that game's soundtrack. Long story short, my first guest is B.Dandelion , and she will be driving the bus today. I'll see you all at the end of the month. Also, I'd like to ask all of you, my dear readers, for feedback. Just tell me in the comments (or at aliascent@gmail.com) your thoughts, comments, what do you enjoy the most, what was your favorite post, what should I improve, etc. Feedback. -Aliascent Alia asked me if I’d like to write an article for his bl...

N°3: Castle Crashers-Space pirates

After being delayed for almost a month ( thanks to being quite busy), the new post is finally here. And today, we'll have some Castle Crashers OST. Released in 2008, Caste Crasher is a mix of Beat em All and RPG. Starting in the depths of Indie gaming, it finally rose to the rank of an hailed and praised title. Although the game in itself is a jewel of humour,fun and totally kicks asses, there is no doubt that its OST had a major role in this game success. Full of energy, mixing metal with techno, while still having the orchestral tracks you would expect from a medieval, heroic fantasy themed game. And then I heard Space Pirates. I was seriously thinking all video games now were bound to have some orchestral, grandiloquent music ; till this one started. A few high-picthed keyboard notes, followed by a groovy bass and groovy drums. Nothing more, nothing less. And by being so simple, this particuliar song directly echoes to the 90's games, when most of the music was made ...
