RATCHET AND CLANK ᛫ Ambient Chill Out Music Compilation

[@Shendowa]

When David Bergeaud left, the series also lost a part of it’s soul. He is 50% of the reason why I love the PS2 era of the R&C games. His orchestral style was so unique and even to this day… it’s some of the best composed music I’ve ever heard in a video game franchise. ‘Maktar Nebula’ from Going Commando is a perfect example of what he does best: Mixing a hip-hop/funk beat with some orchestral, ambient samples. What a genius.

[@maymayman0]

100% the games feel completely different without his music

[@SwyvCrux]

Yeah his music made these alien worlds come to life. New music isn't bad but just sounds painfully like every Hollywood movie setpiece rather than something to explore

[@TheWaffleFactory]

The first 2 games soundtracks were my faves! Such a unique sound! I wish the new games stopped with this theatrical score thing and give us something to tap our toes to. I feel like into the nexus got the closest with a few spooky synths songs.

[@bigbadgammagnome]

He composed for some of the PS3 era too. Only some tho (I think just tools of destruction??). His music was absolutely the best, and some of his tracks in R&C1 are up there in my favourite video game music of all time. The 2016 remake has the most soulless music in the whole franchise. (Rift Apart at least had a couple good tracks, with Emperor Nefarious' theme standing out as one of the only good tracks in the game, to the point of it being really memorable for me amidst all the bland music) And I only played these games recently so I have no blind nostalgia for them, just pure admiration for his talent.

[@aphelliumm]

i tried to play the new ones and I just was.....so disappointed. The music during this era was just absolutely amazing. I remember coming home from school and listening to this on repeat as I am playing the game because it was just so unique and interesting. I still listen to this 14 years later because it brings back nostalgia

[@Devon297]

Ratchet and Clank music still consistently causes me to feel the world after probably a decade since I played some of the games.

[@Terapagos3000]

Imo it went worsening. It was great in the first and then kept getting worse and more bland, with just a few exceptions for me in every game. Idk if it's because I'm used to listen to Nintendo soundtracks that are top quality, but they really just went bland after the first, and then with PS3 they started to get into this cinematic kinda style that is so bland for a videogame and tells me nothing, it got the worst with the remake. The PS5 game seems like keeping with this kinda ambience sounds that idk if it's even music, we'll see, however i still loved a bunch of tracks in Crack in time

[@RYNOCIRATOR_V5]

@@Terapagos3000 ...wut? if you said after Tools of Destruction or Quest for Booty then that would be understandable, but after the first game? i don't know what kind of Nintendo crack you've been smoking but you need your ears checked bro.

[@Terapagos3000]

@@RYNOCIRATOR_V5 Yeah Nintendo is how you make a soundtrack properly. After the first the tracks get all bland and with poor melodies. They aren't iconic at all. I may save only crack in time cause some tracks there are really great, so no I wouldn't exclude crack in time anyway lol. It's tastes, I guess, but I really only find the soundtrack of the first iconic and if you notice where's the difference with every later game, you get the point I'm making.

Underrated saga. At least 1, 2 and 3

[@soggybreadman4035]

Deadlocked is the most underated of all in my opinion. My favorite out of the original four. Why people dislike it compared to the rest is beyond me. It took the more combat centric approach of Up Your Arsenal and refined it, made it so much more fun. Had a completely original Seriously banging techno-rock soundtrack that didn't reuse any music from the previous games like UYA did... And was overall just so much more compelling than the third one was. Up Your Arsenal is a really fun game... But i think it's just ridiculous to put 3 above 4 when 4 corrected so much of 3's mistakes. Edit: Going Commando is a close second favorite though. I feel like UYA would've been better if they kept the platforming/exploration side of things that Going Commando had. But then again, without UYA's combat focus we wouldn't have Deadlocked.

[@leon4762shortsmaker]

@@soggybreadman4035 deadlock was a blast and had adrenaline pumped mission while the other 3 still had platforming elements. hopefully rift apart will encapsulate the feel of the original games

I agree, 3 is the most cookie cutter and rehashed levels etc...

Actually great that you featured a track from tools as well, people sleep on that game's soundtrack heavy

[@maestrofeli4259]

while I agree that there are some good songs in that game, I think it is appropiately-rated. It is much worse and forgetable than the psp/ps2 games' soundtracks, with way too many generic semi-ambient tracks that just say "jungle" or "pirate". But the songs that say something different are pretty good.

[@ebtrax4081]

@@maestrofeli4259 Yeah i can kind of agree, I think the fact that Beurguead had to do the ost for that, resistance, qfb, sm and sac all in the space of a couple years probably effected the quality of the tracks somewhat, and while they do have that notable ratchet aesthetic, they feel like they've lost some of the essence of what made early ratchet music so great. No wonder he quit after that, he must've been exhausted. Still I think tools has a good soundtrack overall, and I think we can both agree that it's still a lot better than the osts from A4O onwards, no disrespect to Micheal Bross but I feel like he really doesn't understand the "feel" of ratchet.

[@magnaplated]

I agree to a large extent. Apart from the first track it was very hard to find any music that slowed things down without it eventually escalating into something louder. A lot of these start really mellow but progressively get more bombastic and that's just David's style. In retrospect, it probably would've been a good idea to include some music from A Crack in Time, which does much better at keeping its calm tracks calm. But at the same time, I did want to keep this exclusive to David's soundtracks for consistency's sake. It is what it is.
