Video Game Music
Video game music is the soundtrack that accompanies video games.
Early video game music was once limited to simple melodies of early
sound synthesizer technology. These limitations inspired the style of
music known as chiptunes, which combines simple melodic styles with more
complex patterns or traditional music styles, and became the most
popular sound of the first video games.
With advances in technology, video game music has grown to include
the same breadth and complexity associated with television and film
scores, allowing for much more creative freedom.
