Today, everyone with half an idea is free to fill an entire hard drive with their junk. No cartridges or discs to force restraint or weed out the born losers.

@Slevin I agree with you completely. Limbo is "safe". It's nothing that hasn't been done before. Back then, people took risks when they created their art. People still do that but it's harder to innovate when pretty much everything has been invented and you can just slap the label "experimental" on something if it doesn't make any sense to you. Back then, artists (game developers included), took more risks. They wanted to do what they wanted even if nobody would be interested in the end product... even if the work became a financial failure. See: The Last Express. I'm not even that old, I'm 21, I'm speaking like I'm ancient, hehe. I definitely think that indie developers now are focused on gimmicks rather than actually being groundbreaking. So, they make a really weird game as a joke, it turns viral for a while, and then people forget about it.

This soundtrack is absolutely superb, a master piece! I actually listen to this a lot when I'm just chilling out or falling asleep it has a nice ambience to it and I just like the comforting nostalgia. The music and the game while so beautiful has such an eerie sad feel to it and some times even danger. Such a well-written innovative composition. I'll need to find out more about who wrote it and the story behind it because it's a work of art. If it weren't for the fact that's it's in MIDI or just a soundtrack for a computer game it would be like Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells or something (although I think that thin MDI sound only adds to atmosphere and creepiness). Thanks so much for uploading this and any other Sega Mega Drive soundtracks you've uploaded (if you do I'm subscribing I love the nostalgia!) :-)
@ethanwoo53764 жыл бұрын
I know you probably dont care but... Midi is just a digital interface used to seqence and play notes and other data values (no sound). Usually to and from synthesizers themselves, but the synth chip in the megadrive/genesis is the YM2612 a multitimbral yamaha FM (frequency modulation) synth chip which evolved from the yamaha DX series synthesizers. The closest you will get is the dx100 or newer reface dx. That hiss or digital noise you are hearing is the 'cheap' DAC (digital analog converter), although, it gives it a nice retro quality. The notes aren't even sequenced/recorded by midi in the first place, the CPU directly uses some of its DSP (digital sound processing(or)) to control the YM2612. There ya go.
@Lightblue22224 жыл бұрын
If you haven't already, check out Kolibri ost. Made by the same developer. It's a 32X game so it combines actual sound samples into the Genesis FM. Adding nature to retro electronic. Another game only novotrade could make. Edit: I'm aware Genesis can do sampling too, but not to the degree and quality 32X can. Kolibri might be the best showcase for the system sound wise. I'm glad it wasn't on CD, it's the last of the sound chip generation.

I swear this game gives you another case of depression and intense heart break of sadness for anyone who was doing a slow recover from depression. I listened to this soundtrack and I feel heavy weight of shock, sadness, heart break, and creepy feeling from one song to another. Just amazing and terrifying at the same time for a music from game with limited hardware back then

For me "the lagoon" is really the haunting one. Maybe because it was the beginning of the game, and I could not really do much, it was so frustrating! Awesome game.

It's really interesting how different "The Stomach" feels. It's almost like it came from a different game. And it's understandable, as it was composed at a different time and possibly by a different team, for the Japanese version of the game, as The Stomach was an extra level added to that version for if you died to the Vortex Queen.

@auburnbit7005 In hindsight I think they actually did, it’s unused in the western version IIRC.

I played all of the Ecco games on my Atgames Sega Genesis as a kid, and I'm used to the sound being slightly altered. It didn't really sound eerie on there. But my GOD. This is nightmare inducing, especially the first level.

I am the ecco MASTER! but just saying it took YEARS of muscle memory and stole my childhood to get good at it. Tides of Time was far more forgiving but still lol.

Хм...это моя любимая игра на сеге, особенно её продолжение, конечно без дримкаст не обошлось, но этот дельфин Экко преследует меня до сих пор...и я рад что не потерял связь с этой прекрасной игрой, я умру с ней) Тиму Фоллину особое уважение...

Ecco the Dolphin is to Genesis as DK Country is to SNES. Both made in the USA. Both have all-animal casts. Both have top-tier soundtracks for their respective platforms. There are probably more similarities that I'm unaware of as I am mostly unfamiliar with both games.

I genuinely don't wish to appear ungrateful, it's great to have the full OSTs of these games here, but have you considered uploading the music of Ecco 2? IMO it took the genius of this soundtrack and upped it to the next level.

With almost 7 years old, I wanted this game so much... my mother baked a cake with Ecco the Dolphin on it the day of my birthday... I got the game as a present in 1994. After playing it for one day or two I had to abandon it... Not only it was so difficult, It was IMPOSSIBLE for a child not to be scared with it. Playing it at night? (8:38) Yeah sure.
