This week’s music selection is from my soundtrack for the mobile game Wizard Ops, by Phyken Media. This is your classic boss battle music, in this case for a warlike dirigible that keeps pelting you with bombs.

This week’s music selection is a marimba-driven blend of percussion instruments, some real and some more fanciful.

This short cue is a genre blend of meditative Eastern percussion and contemporary beats, moving from contemplative to intense and back.

Okay, I’m being a little cheeky. The actual affix should be “Corrupted Fates Version”, referring to the DLC expansion of the game Dice Legacy, wherein you get to play the bad guys. But it’s more fun to say Evil Cult, so voici.

This variation of the game got its own darker version of the main theme, replete with mystical chanting and ominous intoning chorus.

Play this cue below, or check out the entire game soundtrack on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Pandora, or YouTube!

For this week’s music selection — my frenetic arrangement of a traditional holiday song — I will need to redirect you to Spotify. (Boring music-rights-related explanation omitted.)

I hope that this time of year, however you celebrate or experience it, provides you with good cheer and good memories!
