@m_giacchino is an immensely talented composer who is well-known from his work for Hollywood movies.

Listen to the theme below from the video game “Medal of Honor.”

He takes you deep into the darkness of war, and finds a sliver of hope to hold on to. 2/
@PhilipSheppard crafted a haunting and beautiful soundtrack for “Detroit: Become Human” - a game that explored the essence of what it means to be human.

Listen to how it builds, and comes apart in such intricately layered ways... just like we all do. 3/
A big part of video gaming is getting to be someone you’d never be in your real life.

“Uncharted” was a game series that put you in the role of Nathan Drake, treasure hunter.

@GregEdmonsonFC captured that spirit in his amazing and uplifting theme. 4/
No list of video game music is complete without @UematsuNobuo - one of the greatest video game composers ever.

With so many memorable themes to choose from, I come back to his original “Prelude” from the soundtrack to “Final Fantasy.”

Sheer beauty. 5/
I know a lot of you probably haven’t heard of a single game on this list.

But there is one piece of video game music that almost everyone knows and loves.

Enjoy the amazing @DemiRemick tap-dancing to Koji Kondo’s theme to “Super Mario” w/ @PMJofficial!
