QuoteWell if that doesn't count then neither does Loom.

Do you mean there's a "Loom" movie? I want to know more about it!

Longest Journey, Gabriel Knight and Phantasmagoria 1 for me.
Reach for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.

Kneel. Now.

The entirety of Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge. My favourite music of any game ever. Great layered MIDI scoring that always fits with what's happening in the game beautifully. I think it was quite innovative too, the first use of iMuse.

Heheheh....no, there was no Loom movie. I think Sluggo is referring to Tchiacovski's(I doubt that is the spelling) Swan Lake.

Now, with his very own game: Alien Time Zone

Was all of Loom's music by Tchiacovski? The title music is my favourite from Loom, and though I think it might be by LEC, its more likely the prelude for Swan lake.
That Rob Blanc tune stuck in my head for weeks.
Ah! There is no emoticon for what I'm feeling!

i'm going for Grim Fandango, or Curse OF Monkey Island, both really strong scores.

I love the groovy mood of Largo LaGrande's theme...

... da da da dum - da da da da dum ...

;D

Yeah, all of LOOM's musics were from SWAN LAKE, there're no original music in LOOM.
For example, in that PCE CD version of LOOM I have, Lucasfilm games put in some life performing classical soundtracks which played all through the game (as opposed to the PC CD version, which they had to mix the voice alongside with the music).

The prelude to Swan Lake isn't even in the game. I'm sure nobody really cares, but that music is actually the Intrada to a Pas de Trois in the first act.

Hetchel's theme is The Dance of the Little Swans (act 4)
Crystalgard is the Dance of the four Swans (act 2)
The sheperd music is the pas d'action from act 1
The blacksmith music is the Moderato from the same Pas de Trois as the intro music
The Cathedral music is the Andante Sostenuto from the Pas de Trois again
and the finale music is, guess...the finale.

Quest for Glory IV - Shadows of Darkness. In my opinion, the songs in that game are the best use of midi ever. That soundtrack is still an inspiration for every single song I compose for adventure games.
I make music.

Ah, shite, that's a hard question... I can't decide on which one I like best, but the soundtracks that I'm particualry fond of are:

Discworld Noir (I mean, come on - Murky and gloomy jazz! Can it get any better?!)
Grim Fandango
Monkey Island II
Gabriel Knight (All of 'em really, but especially 1 & 3.)
Pleurghburg: DA (Sets a good mood. Simple as that.)

The music from Apprentice 2 and Pleurghburg.  Anyone played an AGAST game called "The Breakdown"?  It's short and has only one song, but it's catchy and never gets old.

I fail at art.

My vote goes to Rodekill: A day in the life. I still sing "tiny bubbles" sometimes. :)

But for a professional game I like Space Quest 3. I think that games' soundtrack sticks with me because it was the first game I heard on a soundblaster.

whenever words that remotely sound like Tiny Bubbles get said around me I just have to sing "Tiny bubbles!" and then just trail out... because I don't know the rest and people stare...

Kings Quest 7.  I love the music that's in the part with the china shop with the bull and the mansion with the upside down rooms.  I can't remember the name of that area, but it has stuck with me and i find myself humming or whistling it when i am at work.

Yes, i whistle while i work.  My lips have nothing better to do.  :)
