The Melodies of That Which the Mind Embraces - Second Symphony

"When I joined the Corps, we didn't have any fancy-schmanzy tanks. We had sticks! Two sticks, and a rock for the whole platoon—and we had to SHARE the rock!"

- Sgt. Major Avery Junior Johnson, Halo 2

I shall address the comments in the next post. For now, however, I shall treat you to even more pieces of music that I enjoy.

Once again, they come from video games.



The main battle theme, played whenever you come across an Invid attack in Robotech: Invasion. The game this comes from is average at best, but the music that goes along with it is phenomenal, and could be tied into just about any situation.



Sagat's theme has remained consistent in most of the Street Fighter games he has appeared in - sans Alpha 3. This is a remade version that does not appear in any specific games, but is in the Street Fighter Tribute album. This remade theme strikes me as being "epic", as a theme that perfectly describes the former god of Muay Thai.



Alex's theme, from Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike. It has a nice, "groovy" tune to it, and the beginning of the theme strikes just the right chords to get someone pumped up for anything - be it a fight or what have you.



King's theme from Tekken 2. Just like the beginning of Alex's theme above, it gets one pumped up, but unlike Alex's theme, it keeps one that way.



Aquatic Base - Level 1, from Sonic the Hedgehog for the 360 and PS3. This is a peaceful tune that I would not mind if someone were to stumble upon me listening to.

I would only have a problem if they thought I was a depressed, self-mutilating individual as a result...

And I shall end this entry here. This is Redgrave, signing off.
