Classic FM (UK) presents Two hours of Videogames music. 5pm, Saturday 15 March.

If you poke through the source of that, an .m4a URL is revealed. If you wget that you can have an offline copy.

Also, from looking at the various twitters of the people involved, I get a strong impression that this was successful enough to have a followup.

thanks for the heads up, to think I was feeling so smart using the postal code by borderlinx :lol

I hope they do another, I was playing MGS on my ps3 yesterday and noticed how awesome the music is in that, so much choice they could have in another show if gamers can point things out they maybe totally unaware of.

I'd be interested to know who/how they chose the tracks they played.

One thing that will limit them a bit is that it needs to be in a classical style to really fit on the station, so they can't go *too* rock-y. That said, there's so many orchestral versions of game themes out there that it gives them a reasonable chunk of leeway. (And with that I'll take a moment to see if I can find an orchestral version of the main theme of MGS)

Edit: Got one, but it's got a baseline that feels a bit out of place. If there's a version without that, I think it'd do fine.

Omfg I had no idea there is another FF concert in London this November and it sold out in 3 hours last month.

God damn it, I was already depressed about missing last year's one.

I would make a new thread but I have "sufficient privileges", but there's going to be 2 video game specials on Classic FM today.

(All BST/UK Time)

One at 3-5pm highlighting tracks from the Symphonic Fantasies concerts

With another right after during 5-7pm highlighting orchestrated scores from video games, they listened to fans for this show so expect a lot of requests

Definitely feel that this needs a new thread, considering how good the last one was. I'll be doing that if you don't mind.
