Check This Out: ‘Video Game Rock Medley’

Posted on June 27, 2012

A few months ago on The Bitcast, WallE talked with me about some of the best and most memorable music in gaming with everything from Donkey Kong Country to Halo to even Ducktales. Many of us have spent years of our lives in front of video games and the most iconic songs are embedded in our heads. If you had to put together a soundtrack of the most iconic all smashed together, could you imagine what it’d sound like?

Swedish YouTube user and musician FreddeGedde (a.k.a. Freddie25) did and pieced together his own medley with some of these amazing pieces all together. Playing the guitar, keyboards, kazoo and tinwhistle all himself, FreddeGedde collaborated with drummer Louis Abramson to put together a piece that rings true to all of the original music highlighted within.

Take a look after the jump of FreddeGedde’s Video Game Rock Medley and his YouTube channel for more of his awesome work.

The Definition of “Geek Chic.” Comic books, sci-fi movies, Buffy: The Vampire Slayer, Xbox 360, Nintendo DS, Lord of the Rings and more all rolled up in a Diesel wearing, club going socialite package. Having worked in both advertising and television, John is a lifetime writer always being a part of the creative process. John knows the television world between his experience on being involved with the production process of over two hundred episodes of prime time tv and being a self admitted media whore. Yes he has a weakness for trash tv, Michael Bay-esque action movies and the raunchy teen comedy as well. Never try to debate the Original Star Wars Trilogy versus Star Trek with him because the Holy Trilogy always comes out on top. Having partied with movie stars to Playboy centerfolds, John is somehow always able to find someone’s inner geek. The simplest rules that John lives by is to have fun and doing what makes him happy. There’s no shame in being a geek. Play Halo, read Spider-Man and proudly display the whole series of Neon Genesis: Evangelion on your DVD rack. And most importantly, make sure to read his weekly comic book pull list reviews at The Flickcast.
