The Year Is 2007. It Is The Future.

Today's album is another fun album to listen to. It is from the game Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon and composed by Power Glove. This game is supposed to be a cheesy, cliched game that takes all of those predictable 80's sci-fi movie story lines and wraps it up into one. Despite being released in 2013, the game takes place in 2007 and still claims that it is the future, which features cyborgs and everything else that does not exist, yet.

There is a difference between this music and the music from yesterday. Although themes like this that are from around 1980 can be considered classics, they have a sort of dated feel that if more humorous to return to than anything. When considering themes before that time, around 1930-60, the themes have a special feel to them that never seem to date the way the 80's themes do. This album has the 80's

This score is somewhat minimal throughout most of it, but when you encounter that strangely familiar theme that rules this game, it is really hilarious. Listen to the short playlist below. I like how the first track (Rex Colt) sets the mood, giving you a faded glimpse of the theme that follows.

This album is not available in CD form. I have the standard digital edition, but an awesome vinyl copy is ready for unwrapping.
