La dernière musique est juste magnifique. Si le paradis existe, et qu'il y a de la musique au paradis, et qu'il y a un trophée pour la meilleur musique au paradis, bah il ira a cette musique.
There have been dead sharks in formaldehyde and unmade beds classed as art, and just because something is weird or surreal doesn't necessarily make it any less relevant. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, that's the beauty of it.
Love this game, when I was younger I grew up playing it, and allready back then I used to put the cd in the PSX and just play the music in the musicplayer-mode, and damn I loved hearing this tune.
Michael Gadsby Like a Stranger in Moscow or Someone Put Your Hand out type-song? His '90s ballads were very lush so I can actually appreciate that comparison. Anyway, Rayman has to have one of the best video game soundtracks of the '90s.
sperrotta91 I couldn't agree more. The '90s produced some of the most memorable game music in history. The original Sonic tetralogy speaks for itself, as does Sega's seemingly endless experiments with a jazz fusion vibe. Guardian Heroes, and the Panzer Dragoon soundtracks easily stand beside Rayman's highly imersive and varied OST, but 'lush' hits the nail on the head.
What I love about Rayman is the variety - you’ve got this beautiful new age vibe in Caves of Skops, fantastic, off-kilter funky pop goodness in Band Land and Blue Mountains (somewhat akin to what Prince was doing in the ‘80s and ‘90s with Parade and O(+>) and a quirky marriage between modern classical and electronic in Picture City.
You seem to know more about video game soundtracks than me though (it's something I've never really explored, until recently)... any recommendations based off the diversity on the Rayman OST? I've recently been listening to some excerpts from Shadow Man which I quite enjoy...
Sans ces musique la caverne de skops serait détesté de tous. Franchement c mieu que de rêver d'écouter ces musiques. Si au paradis la musique de fond ressemble à celle ci, alors je ne serai en rien surpris.
I think the first 14 seconds (0:00 - 0:14) of the track is the most like the other Rayman game sountracks compared to the other tracks in the game. I prefer that style really to the other rayman music used for the first game, but it's still all awesome :D
When I made that comment, I was actually up to the Boss level for Skops, that's why I didn't recall hearing it XD But yeah, it's definitely in the PS1 version
I think it's a case of ''Don't fix what isn't broken''. I completely agree with you , i grew up playing Rayman and it saddens me to see what they have done to the game over the years. Rayman was meant to be an epic side scroll-er not 3D. But i most annoyed about Rayman raving rabbits it really sunk me.
@Tharore108 yeah that's a panflute for sure.. You need it for FL Studio or just curious to know? I'm a producer myself and i have one exactly the same as this one.
Rayman Origins is still a good game, just not as good as Rayman 1. You can definitely tell where Michel Ancel influenced and where he didn't in it. The environments and music are wonderful, but the gameplay feels very different from the first one in that it turned Rayman into a fast-paced platformer, although that was probably just part of the modernization process. It's still very much a Rayman game though.
The enimes in this level are a pain! The ones I hate are the..... "Jitterbug" (One that is difficult to defeat and flys up to the a cave celing and fires a stinger that homes onto you.) "Piranha" (The fish in the last level that jumps at you when you are floting on the "joe" balls)
1:52 I remember when I first played the Rayman Forever version of this game (which, by the way, was my first experience with Rayman) and they played this tune instead of the normal Dream Forest music. To be honest, I thought this theme was even better. It added a more calm and serene atmosphere to the Dream Forest levels, unlike the original music which sounded too happy, cheerful and (in my opinion) unatmospheric for my tastes. No offense to those that liked the normal music.
