This is a collection of some of the all-time best epic, Film, electro, and game music. This is a great place to start listening to these genres. Listen to these if you’re unsure how to look for something to listen to, and then search up the composer, film, or game and find more by them and other composers and things will come up and you can find your way from there! There are tons of compilations of music on youtube you can listen to and there’s definitely something out there for your taste.
Instrumentation, articulation, voicing, and harmony are the four main tools and methods that I find used and greatly exploited to create power and expression in these genres of music. Talk about how these are used and how that contributes to the way the music feels or to what the music is supposed to mean or represent.
