    Tim Follin said in a very old interview that he didn't usually pay attention to where his music would fit into the game. He just wanted to push the hardware and make bleep bloops sound good.

  • @joshs.5384
    @joshs.5384 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1123

    There's a huge element of Tim Follin's genius that goes pretty underappreciated. He wasn't just a talented songwriter - the man also managed to pull the most incredible sounds out of a totally primitive soundchip.
    Go listen to other soundtracks that came out around the same as this: Super Mario Bros 3, Mega Man 3, and Final Fantasy were also released in 1990. These are games with legendary soundtracks. They're all very well composed; I'd argue that they're on the same level as anything Follin made.
    But listen to the *sounds.* Those games sounded like every other NES game at the time: a bunch of beeps and boops and static for the cymbals and snare. Then, come back and listen to this again.
    It sounds absolutely *massive* in comparison. The kick drum alone blows my mind. The leads sound thick, and detailed, and alive. They sound like somebody rocking out at a real keyboard, not just a bunch of programmed beeps. The cymbals are fat and varied, the snare sounds crisp and thick. Even the bass sounds big as fuck. Nobody else came up with anything that's even remotely comparable.

      I may be making a very uninformed claim here, but it might be because games like pictionary took way less space and had some extra for music like this

    • @Optomon
      @Optomon 4 ปีที่แล้ว +93

      Follin's works sound more like a sound engineer musician jamming / improvising, yes. Like long, graphically thick new age poetry. His chords and beats rarely modulate though, and his melodic themes don't link together to form a cohesive story much of the time -- they seem to paint a scene for the ear rather than tell a story or communicate a theme. The compositions from the games you mentioned from 1990 feel more like traditional lyrical poetry designed for memory and communicating an experience. Different styles, but the latter, which is confined to tight forms, is more difficult to write for and tends to pay off long term for the listener. I feel the songs from those games are better written in that sense. Tim however has them cleanly beat in the sound engineering department, as well as in the more alluring, free form style of composing. I'd say they're equals, if not just for sheer output on Tim's part.

G n G is amazing, Gauntlet is an audiophonic journey, and I bet you could give a couple tracks from Bionic Commando the ol' Renegade treatment and make some YM2612 magic(especially " End Credits" and the track based on the" Star Wars' Love theme").

    This OST came from the same guy who was quoted as saying "The sound drivers in those old consoles were built to play sound effects to go along with the game. Why would you make music when it's just going to be covered by some dinky sound effects?" It's a paraphrased quote, but it further brings up the question of why the hell did he go so hard on Pictionary? It explains why Plok only used 5 sound channels, since it meant that 3 sound channels could be dedicated to sound effects, but it doesn't explain why he went SO HARD on PICTIONARY

    i've analyzed his works and i can tell some reasons why his music sounds out of this world:
    1: he's a good composer, duh
    2: he knew a lot about how the NES' music worked and used everything to its most (arpeggiated chords are a great example)
    3: he probably composed the tracks outside the NES and used tricks to emulate real instruments as faithfully as possible, as an example the electric guitar at 0:08
