Music of [David Michael Frank]
was discovered by me after watching classic action movies [Above The Law]
and [Hard To Kill]
. Here are some examples, as usual.
ABOVE THE LAW OST - MAIN THEME HARD TO KILL OST - ESCAPE FROM OJAI HARD TO KILL OST - SEVEN YEAR STORM Imagery by spacedrone808

NECROS - MAIN THEME [CRUSADER: NO REMORSE] Imagery by spacedrone808

. 2022 can’t touch 80s! For some reason uploader has disabled embedded content, so here is a [direct YT link to the video]
. And by the way i don’t know who is composer of this awesome tune.

[Frank Klepacki]
is well known for [Command & Conqueror]
soundtrack released back in a mid 90s. He brought awesome progressive sound to PC platform, which was pretty innovative especially after FM bleeps’n’blops of the 80s era.
Don’t get me wrong, i don’t have anything against frequency modulation in games. [UFO X-COM: Enemy Unknown]
is an excellent example of how music should be done when you are squeezed by multiple limitations like waveform shapes, file size and so on.
Here is [Phantasmagoria]
outro soundtrack from horrifying quest of my faraway childhood.

Of course you can buy an excellent hard rock by [The Gone Jackals]
. But if you are huntin’ for original in-game tunes and hunger to have them as MP3 files you’ve come to right place. Soundtrack is simply stunning. But there are no separate music files which embedded into main data file. It can’t be open via standard 7-Zip. We are in luck coz we have excellent ultility to extract music from some classic quests based upon Moai and Buddha engines.
