MUSE - 8-Bit Covers


A match made in heaven! The Muse's space-rock infused brand of alternative blends perfectly with the 8-bit genre to get real video game-sounding songs. It works on so much of their repertoire that I included quite a few examples below, alongside a suggested in-game use for it.

"Stockholm Syndrome" (standard battle theme)




"Plug In Baby" (intro/player select theme)


"Knights of Cydonia" (world exploration theme)



"Starlight" (town theme)



"Time is Running Out" (dungeon theme)



"Hysteria" (villain theme)



"Assassin" (boss battle theme)



"Supermassive Black Hole" (outro/credits theme)
