Reviews of Bjorn Lynne
"X2" CD:
First, it is supposed to be background
noise for a game. It certainly works wonderfully for that.
Second, it's more than interesting enough that you can listen
to it as music (not just background noise). Some soundtrack
are a little too boring to listen to standalone. This one
isn't. I've sat down more than once and given it my full
attention all the way through. Third, it's good for an energy
kick. If you are feeling a bit slow or even down, play this
in the background and it will give you a good jump start.
I use music like most people use coffee and this can be
used both as a wake-me-up and as a fancy dessert drink to
be sipped and enjoyed. It has a good blend of hard-hitting
driving tracks and laid back tracks as not to become tiresome
or monotonous and they don't all sound the same. The main
theme subtly creeps in and out of a few of the tracks and
is used a bit more in "worlds of Ice" quite nicely. Anyway,
get the CD - it's really great. And it is proof that good
VGM doesn't always come from Japan :)
