Music

Diddy Kong Racing/Donkey Kong 64/Legend of Zelda, The: Majora's Mask/Mario Golf

I don't play a lot of video games ,I think I've written that in almost every blog I post, so to understand/recognize the songs I had to pull out some images of the games on google. I played a puzzle connect a song to an image. The colors and action being taken my the characters made would be matched with a song. A really happy upbeat song form Diddy Kong Racing would go with Pipsy and a humor song with a variety of beats would go with a Diddy.

When an image of Mario in a complex obstacle appeared I would place it with a song that had simple but fast beats. As the song played and the image was in front of me I could feel my hear beating faster. I imagined Mario missing the shot and I was filled with disappointment or hitting a good shot and could hear the crowed clapping. The song along was no good for me.

After hearing the songs I went to YouTube and listen to some classical music mainly Mozart and Brahms. I'm not a big classical music fan but when I listen to it I didn't need an images. The variety of tones and beats (and musical instrument) allowed me to just feel the music. War game songs (when being advertised) also made me feel this way.
