[QUOTE=x_xPwntx_x;28979916]Except Hans Zimmer totally didn't do that. He did Crysis 2's music however.[/QUOTE] You're right. I just looked it up. I keep on getting Inon Zurr and Zimmer confused. Foreign names
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy61r3Qkm6o[/media] Wasn't actually in the game, but still pretty good.
[QUOTE=SPESSMEHREN;28963178]Michael Giacchino, from LOST (one of the last scenes this music was used in brought a tear to my eye...)[/QUOTE] Michael Giacchino? His songs are fucking awesome.

[QUOTE=menece360;28964989]Hans Zimmer makes some really awesome music, like this sound track from Pirates of the Caribbean.

[URL="http://www.facepunch.com/"]View YouTUBE video[/URL] [URL]http://youtube.com/watch?v=xBSiIeu1Yg8[/URL] [URL="http://www.facepunch.com/"]View YouTUBE video[/URL] [URL]http://youtube.com/watch?v=nJD-Ufi1jGk[/URL] [/QUOTE] Jeremy Soule does the music for Supreme Commander/Forged Alliance, as well as Guild Wars. Funny enough, Forged Alliance and Guild Wars are among my favourite games. I didn't know that Soule did the music for Morrowind and Skyrim as well, but it doesn't surprise me. Anything he touches is meant to be epic from the very start.

Honestly I can't get enough of some of the splintercell double agent themes. I cry. Iceland is a good example

[QUOTE=Aries;28964386]From the more recent series of Doctor Who. You can hear how well it fits in with his speech towards the end.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXtRzzNyMiQ[/media] Not a typical "Epic" song.
[MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPLuM4Jv7WE[/MEDIA] Good stuff, even though I don't like anything else by Schneidemesser. Which is a German name by the way, it means cut-knife.
I always liked this one. It's Symphony No. 8, by Gustav Mahler. That bit at the start never fails to impress me. [MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Wi1j-rpcEw[/MEDIA]

[QUOTE=lord0war;28989337][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy61r3Qkm6o[/media] Wasn't actually in the game, but still pretty good.[/QUOTE] It was, at a part where you fight the combine and you finish the fight go into a building and you see a guy laying on the ground dying.
Haven't seen this anywhere in the thread: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pblRAO6J8iQ[/media] I myself can't get enough of the part where it properly 'kicks in'.

Dimmu Borgir's got some tight epic orchestral compositions in their songs.
