The end has a nice segue into the following track (Gameboy Tune). It really comes to life at :57, and I just get lost in the music for the next half minute or so. (Length: 3:17) The well-placed distortions and sycopated rhythm are what make this one my favorite of the bunch. This track definitely has some of the most personality of any of the tracks. The tune was then totally re-composed." You can hear the synthesizer kick in at 1:39. I made up some imaginary text and gave it to the speech synthesizer to sing. I like it because it really has this robot feeling. Nowadays you have speech synthesizers that sound very clear, but this one is very old. The sound is made by an old Apple speech synthesizer. The irony is there's a robot singing in this song. (Length: 3:47) The composer says of this track: "I don’t like operetta too much. It's altogether beautiful to listen to even with all of its little quirky noises (necessary to the soundtrack).

(Length: 3:45) The in and out rhythmic feel of this, the rise and fall, it definitely emulates waves of an ocean. and I highly recommend some good headphones to best enjoy all of the subtle elements of the music!) This week's choice is Machinarium by Amanita Design.

I share a few of my favorite tracks, talk about why everyone should listen to the soundtrack, and a little bit about the composer. In this weekly feature, I recommend game soundtracks.
