Legendary video game music composer Nobuo Uematsu says he doesn’t think some modern video game soundtracks are as interesting as those in older games.

He’s right! Video game music has been absolutely mental since the start, whether Japanese arcade machines, the early 90s German demo scene, JRPGs, etc etc. Just getting a session orchestra in to riff on Holst and Wagner is boring.

Just getting a session orchestra in to riff on Holst and Wagner is boring.

Most often it's not even a real orchestra, but Vienna Symphonic Library.
