Video game composers team up for benefit album

ditto on Jesper Kyd, hismusic seems to get stuck in my head more than others

Gotta buy this, but where in damnation are Koji Kondo and Nobuo Uematsu!? You can't even talk about video game composers without those two. But many of those are great composers too. Many seem to like Inon Zur, and I like his music too, but I just don't like it outside of games. It's more like background music and I at least don't even notice it most of the time. Not like Kondo and Uematsu, who's music just blows your brains out with epicness that almost steals the show completely :)

I own a harmonica, can I have some cash? I'll suck yo... (>.>) Seriously though, very cool to see. Checking it out right now (too bad Jesper Kyd wasn't involved, big fan).

definite buy!

Count me in. I bought the Play for Japan album and love it. And from the preview on iTunes, this album will not disappoint. Plus it's for a good cause. What's not to like?

ziproy: it's not a terrible cause. GameSpot didn't properly explain what the charity is for. They're not just giving money to musicians who are broke. To quote the press release: "all proceeds from the album will be donated to the Sweet Relief Musicians Fund which provides financial assistance to career musicians who are struggling to make ends meet while facing illness, disability, or age-related problems" Still think it's a terrible cause?

i'll buy, i'll support... happy holidays!

Beautiful people coming together to make something beautiful for a beautiful cause. Very, very, lovely.

I'm sorry but that is a terrible cause for charity.

Brian Tyler does good stuff. He scored Rambo (the last Rambo movie) which had a surprisingly good score for an action movie.

INON ZUR. THIS GUY ONLY MADE DAO FROM GREAT TO EPIC AND DA2 FROM CRAP TO WORTH PLAYING

just a note its really a great soundtrack listened to a preveiw of it on itunes and just wonderfully done espically the last one by jackwall

I'll buy it.

Well this has certainly grabbed my interest.

Aah, some Bob Geldofs in the gaming industry I see, very good. Well done those people.

Awesome collaboration! Happy to see Gary Schyman and the Mass Effect composers here especially.

United for Once!

Awesome! I'll try my luck on eBay to get a signed copy :)

wow amazing,shame Jesker Kyd isn't on the list though...........

I found it on iTunes, but it is not listed as being for benefit. It's not even listed under the new releases today. Needs better placement...

for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan?

@johngriffin , the (comparatively) darker tone he's employed for Skyrim, is literally mesmerizing. what an artist.

Exactly what TheGreyArea said. +1

No Nobuo Uematsu? wtf

awesome, awesome, AWESOME!!! Bit of a shame Jeremy Soule wasn't tapped to contribute. but superb and a must buy regardless

This is a must buy, sounds great

I like these types of stories. I just bid on an autographed copy. Hope I get it. ;)

It must be awesome i will get it :D

Awesome. I will definitely be buying this.
