Ep.55 - Video Game Music, Vol. 3

On Ep.55 of ISOS: Memorable VGM, Celeste and Hollow Knight.
On this all-video episode of ISOS: Host Tyler brings a very meta essay on VGM as a whole and why modern compositions aren't as memorable as the compositions of old. Ryan brings an essay on positive & negative stress in games, with Celeste as a case study. And Brandon finishes off with a monologue on Hollow Knight lore... And there's also an essay to back it. I think, we'll never know.

ARTICLES & TIMESTAMPS:
Tyler's Pick - (7:26) "What Happened to Memorable Game Music?" By Game Score Fanfare
Brandon's Pick - (45:44) "Storytelling through Music in Hollow Knight" By 8-bit Music Theory
