Friendly Competition
Need I mention there is another group on the site called 'Geek Music' and claims to be 'the place to be if you are a geek and love music'. This other false prophet has no content on yet still they have more members than our all mighty music collaboration with updates and new songs shared at least once a week.

We must topple the great false God of Geek Music and get to be the top music group on Geeks! Our target is to get more than 89 members and beat the other group down until they are begging us to stop and we take over the entire website! I know we can do it!

P.S. If the owner of that group is reading this take into account you haven't updated since February 21st (year not supplied). Put some content on there and compete!

Album/Track of the Week

Geek music is usually not the most popular music out there. For something a bit more interesting this week we are going to look at main stream pop music. You heard right, but this is no ordinary pop track. Like the majority of music on here this also has a little twist to it. DJ Earworm is famous for his online mixes of the top hits and was recently asked to combine a large number of songs for a summer concert at Wembley Stadium in England.

These mashups take a very long time to make. Each track has to be auto tuned correctly, tempo changed to make the mix sound perfect. Once this is done the tracks then have to be arranged. This is very a long process and credit is given where due. His other mashups are very good and you can check these out on YouTube. Enjoy!

Do you like Tetris? Then you will probably love this game. The thing that I was really surprised by in this games was how good the music was. Does any one else like this piece of music playing? I love flash games and probably play them more than my consoles at the moment. What do you think? http://armorgames.com/play/4375/99-bricks-the-legend-of-garry Not Just Classical! Jeremy Lanteigne has recently brought to my attention the track from Devil May Cry 3. It is an instrumental of the great Castlevania Theme. Breaking the usual classical stuff this was done by Cradle of Filth. I think this is a great rendition of this and everyone should take a listen! You can hear it at Give it a listen and let me know what you think!! Killzone 2 Behind the Music Scenes The spectacular orchestral piece written for Killzone 2 has released a documentary about how they wrote the music and go into all the detail about recording it. It was written by Joris de Man and he takes us through the writing and recording process. Absolutely brilliant for people to see who don't know what goes into game music. The documentary is found on Gamespot at http://uk.gamespot.com/ps3/action/killzone2/video/6213891 8 Bit Band, Awsome Tracks Just saw this band that writes music like the good old styles and plays them off an edited SNES. I listened to some of their tunes and after that immediately went and bought their album. I put one of their tracks on my page. Check them out if you haven't heard of them. They are called Anamanaguchi. College Humor just interviewed them if you are wondering where I noticed them. Check them out and comment If you haven't yet check out my blog asking for musicians to help with a cool new project. Also since I may not be able to update the group in the next 2 weeks (hopefully I will) I will do next weeks Tracks now The Theme to Chrono Trigger is one of my favorite old soundtracks. There are so many versions of the main theme to this great piece of music. It was covered in the 5th Orchestral Game Concert. Both Songs are on my Profile. Please listen to the original and the modern one. It is great to hear the contrast! Zelda Ocarina of Time Lovers

Noticing that someone mentioned Zelda the Orchestral Game Concert does have a version of all the Ocarina songs written to fit into to one long flowing song. This does sound absoultley brilliant to anyone who is a fan of the Zelda music. There is more of this stuff if anyone would like some more information on it please message me!
