To date, Howard Shore\'s SUN: Soul of the Ultimate Nation has been the most impressive music written for the medium that I\'ve heard, but what Jeremy Soule and his co-composer brother Julian have contributed makes for a wonderfully charged listen.
Now, I must say that I am in no way a 'gamer', have never owned a gaming system and have no desire to delve into that area of fandom, but being a life long fan of film & television music I am easily able to appreciate what a skilled composer can bring to an imaginative video game environment. And much of his work appears in high profile game titles, such as Star Wars and Harry Potter, immediately drawing comparison to John Williams which can be simultaneously flattering and damning. Jeremy Soule has made quite the name for himself in the world of music for video games, with enough projects each year for the past seven that he almost exceeds what many film composers produce for the silver screen.
