Lots of that type of music there.

Hmmm, although I do like video game music, and it does fall under the synth category, quite a lot of the older video game music was sequenced on computers.

Ideally, my idea for this thread is about music that has been physically played on synths, keyboards and pianos, by musicians with good musicianship at the forefront. Not sequenced synthesizer music.



With that I give you Jordan Rudess from ***** Theater performing on their track Untethered Angel :)

A big part of video game music is the live performances though. There are many legit orchestras (Tokyo Symphony among others) which frequently have game music performances, and of course the composers themselves often put on live shows more akin to a rock concert.

Yes, Jon Lord is pretty amazing. Here is with the Blues Project and with the Hoochie Coochie Men. A few good musicians whom he spent time with.

He's got a couple more good ones too. I'm sure your hip to "Journey To The Center Of the Earth". Wakeman is without a doubt in the top 5 for me.
