  I have been meaning to tell you folks for the better part of a year about a personal favorite from 2011 that I somehow failed to get pushed into our “Best of 2011” OSVOSTOTY awards.

  This is an album from Chris Geehan and the others at HyperDuck. It was their feature release for 2011, and while the game isn’t exactly the strongest platformer I’ve ever played (five stages, sorta Metroid meets Mega Man), the soundtrack is the sort of thing that will make you sit up and pay attention.

  After the jump, my review of the OST for A.R.E.S Extinction Agenda. (more…)

  HyperDuck Power! The Blocks Cometh (Review)

  There’s this totally awesome three-man sound team from the UK that we at OSV have neglected to talk about as much as we ought. They’ve done a fair beat of music in the last three years, and I suspect they’ll only get better with time.

  Of course, I’m talking about HyperDuck SoundWorks. I really appreciate the work they’ve done, especially the ridiculously good soundtrack for A.R.E.S: Extinction Agenda (which was actually featured in the first GMB). Someday I’ll review that album, because I adore it.

  But today, we’re here to talk about a much smaller soundtrack they first released in April 2011 and is presently being featured in the Indie Game Music Bundle 3. That soundtrack is for The Blocks Cometh. But now, Chris et al, be forewarned! Judgment upon your music cometh! After the jump, that is. (more…)
