A whole album of choir-full game music
Portal‘s beloved “Still Alive” is a quirky anti-epic, so giving it the full choir treatment just kind of sounds like a ’90s Disney tune, even when the rest of the voices (backup singing villagers or something) jump in halfway through. Technically neat, but thematically it’s not really jiving for me. You can listen to itembedded over yonderand weigh in.
Good thing “Still Alive” is only one of the tracks onThe Greatest Videogame Music III – Choral Edition(out January 29). I’m feeling like the selections fromSkyrim,Final Fantasy,God of Warand evenPortal 2‘s “Cara Mia Addio” will benefit a bit more from a full choir belting.
On the other hand, you can just listen to Los Saicos.
