It’s Video Game Music Time again!! This time, we are going to talk about the OST’s for Bioshock, one of my favourite games. Bioshock was my introduction into FPS, and it was an amazing introduction at that. A big part of those memories is the atmosphere , which was enhanced by the music. I have included Bioshock 1 and 2 tracks here, and Bioshock Infinite will be its own post at a later time.
With Rapture falling during the Big Band era, most of the music in the game, aside from the score, is all original Big Band songs. You have the upbeat tempos, the Crooners, and all the other trappings from this hedonistic era of Rapture.
So, A few of my favourites include:
- La Mer (Beyond the Sea) – Django Reinhardt & Stéphane Grappelli. Youtube
- The Trouble with Me is You – Red McKenzie Youtube
- We Saw the Sea – Fred Astaire Youtube
- Papa Loves Mambo – Perry Como Youtube
How do you feel about Big Band Music? Yay or Nay?
