Re: Recapitulation in the Music

It does give a great sense of reflection. I feel like that's why all of the tracks on Spyro 1 have such a collective feeling to them. Each one is so distinctive, but they are all tied together.

Also, awesome find! I hope it's in all the tracks somewhere. That would just be so neat!

Re: Recapitulation in the Music

I always loved that about this soundtrack. I think the recapitulation really helps bring the worlds together into one really cohesive experience. Even though each level is separated by a portal, they always fit into their respective homeworld biome, and each homeworld had its own specific sound--all held together by the musical similarities. You can hear it in the bass lines too.

I love this game. smile

Re: Recapitulation in the Music

so that's the word for it. i've noticed certain bands seem to have a certain melody that appears in a lot of their songs (can't think of any examples right now). i never noticed that it's in Spyro too, that's cool.

and i would never have noticed. nice find smile

Re: Recapitulation in the Music

Yep. I can't believe it took me so long to notice it. I've always loved the music and listen to it by itself often, but I first noticed it in the Beast Maker's theme not long ago.

Next time I get the chance to play StD again, I'm going to turn off the sound effects and listen carefully for any more examples.

Re: Recapitulation in the Music

Never knew it carried on to later game too; that's awesome. If your find the time it'd be cool to find them all. Or if I ever find a break in my hectic schedule, I'll boot up some Spyro 2 with the sound effects off like Spyrogirl101 suggested.

Re: Recapitulation in the Music

Oh yeah, I was going to point that one out, but I forgot.
Also, Paranoia, you can find the ost of the first four games on the internet, with enough searching. Not sure where, but I could look them up and link you to them if you'd like.

Re: Recapitulation in the Music

well, yeah, they are, but downloading over 100 songs from youtube would be really tedious.
