Went from designing cities in SimCity as a kid to designing them in real life as an adult. Love this game!
Sure ya did buddy

Im just gonna assume that you became supreme city mayor IRL too :)
from a 2022 perspective it absolutely blows my mind this is the soundtrack for a city builder game
why cant we have this in the current times? where did the soul go?
I always play Cities:skylines listening to the SimCity4+ Rursh Hour music in the background to this day! I wish I could answer your question though.

greed brother. that is where it gone.
It's gone underground, as it often does. If you want something contemporary that's also retro and awe-inspiring like this soundtrack is, then I highly recommend checking out Pangeapedia Plus by Daniel White. Or just anything under the genre label "utopian scholastic". It sounds like if Windows 95 was singing to you in your dreams.
Go hunting and you'll find brilliant stuff like that being made right now!
March 2024 and still enjoying this great Simcity music while grinding at work 😎 Thanks for the upload my friend 😎
I held an internship this summer. The commute required me to ride a lightrail and walk a few blocks downtown. Every morning I'd put on this soundtrack. It's incredible how well the songs fit with the hustle and bustle of a large city in the morning.
Having played this when I was young and now listening to it in this very transition part of my life is awesome!
So you're saying we're Sims? Somehow this seems comforting.
I love everything about this comment!
Dude, check out Factorio and get back to me...
You're a crack dealer! ;)
Ironically, the song "Morning Commute" didn't fit in very well. Songs like: Metropolis, ElectriCITY, Urban Underground, Gritty City, and Transit Angst all fit incredibly.
When I was a little girl, my mom used to play this game for hours and hours. I fell in love with the music on it's own, but it also held a very special place in my heart becasue I heard this soundtrack in my home almost daily for several formative years. I was so phsyched to find the entire album on RUclips. Now for the past 6 years or so I have listened to the soundtrack anytime I need background music or am studying/working. It's just my favorite thing and I literally can't get sick of it
And my dad used to play Sim City 4 when I was a small kid, and I can't remember that much but the music is something I can't forget too!
what a great story, that music must really hold a special meaning for you having heard it when you were little. I played this as a young lad, and I loved the music as I still do.... oh no now im getting sentimental over it. such great times.
OMG this is such a beautiful comment! Thank you!
It'll be an interesting day if I ever get to relate with a mother a generation above me who also played SimCity. I haven't met one yet but apparently SimCity and the Sims were popular with stay-at-home parents, which I think is pretty cool.
And you never played the actual game, have you
There was a time when I was master of the universe. As I was staying ageless and motionless before my computer, flying untouched over human frenzy, cities rose and crumbled under my thumb, tiny people ran hurriedly to their death on the roads I had built and time flew at my command.
Then it all stopped and I had to become one of those running specks. They call it life.
nice!
Nicolas Combrexelle You get an A+ in English.
Nicolas Combrexelle That's... That's beautiful... You made me cry.
Nicolas Combrexelle It called me forth and I prepared my route. To where I did not know. It was as though some all powerful force was calling me forth and I had no control over, or will even, to fight it. Some call it a god but I wonder if this truly is a simulation. Not by analogy, not by hazy-eyed ponderings in philosophy, but literally. Is my destiny my own, or is it under the control of strings of code wrapped around my hands and feet as if I were some flesh and blood marionette? Could my entire world end at any moment at the command of that etherial puppeteer, shut down like my own computer by my own hand? Or perhaps that hand is my own, and my destiny is my own as well. In any case, my route awaits and time does not. It's time to go.
Nicolas Combrexelle Its time to start playing Dwarf Fortress...
Best simcity game ever made in my opinion
***** If we take the buggyness and optimization out of the picture, then Cities Skylines is the best in my opinion
***** Its fantastic, although you need a really good computer to build large cities. One of the best things about it, is that the creators encourage modding, and it has a steam workshop.
+Anti Nazi
It's the best for it's era..
yazar8 Yep
***** Yeah even though the graphics aren't realistic, it still looks good.
1:14:40 reminds me of getting shit done, avenues connecting to highways was so satisfying almost therapeutic. But 2:06:50 reminds me of plotting too much high density residential then health workers going on strike, placing a large medical centre to alleviate the problem only to see the expenditure exceed my income. Then BOOM,, the military are offering $300 for a missile range and it gets placed in 'that part of town' alongside the casino and landfill... Played the same region from 2006-2017 until my PC fucked up... What an epic game, thanks for posting !
Played this game in college, now I listen to this soundtrack while coding at work. I can't tell if this is a sad or a beautiful thing.
I love this as coding music too :P
same here
I listen to this as working music too.
I played the hell out of this game as a kid, and now in college I listen to this while coding sometimes! Small world.
Me too!!! Weird that this is the top comment I look at while listening at work, lol
Why is this guy not scoring big blockbuster films? Why is he not considered a legend? He's one of the best composers there is. This is a masterpiece.
Jerry Martin really does deserve more recognition and jobs, as well as the other people who worked on this soundtrack.
IMHO, one of the best video games soundtracks ever made.
I'm a Chinese, played this 10 years ago, so happy to see so many comments of you sharing the same feelings I have. One of my favorite albums.

There's a news channel here in Argentina called "TN" who frequently uses this soundtrack as background music for some news. I guess the sound designer loves this soundtrack too much just like us!!
I know your comment is old but...Saludos desde acá, and yes, they use it a lot, like when talking about money.

I didn't expect this much nostalgia.
Time to dust off my copy...
was 10$ on black friday
It is still the best in the series. 2013 never lived up to is predecessor...
no drive mode, no tanks :p
Simcity also DOES NOT fit this soundtrack.
Maxis after 2010 became more Metro themed than before.
Works on Simcity Colourblind mode though.
Nahben Haben Rush Hour, will fix that.
What is so baffling and beautiful to me is that this music was composed and recorded 20 years ago... And it's aged like fine wine. Many of these tracks were ahead of their time in the best possible way. This was a project of passion and everything about this game oozes with admiration and purpose. What an amazing time to be a kid, what wonderful memories. Thanks Maxis.
Especially the "ambient" tracks starting from 2:36:00 onwards. While ambient music has been a thing since at least the 1970s (a la Tangerine Dream) it was only recently brought into the conscious of the larger community in the past decade. This is thanks to various platforms (like YT) that have exposed electronic music to many people that normally wouldn't have given it a second thought.
For those that liked the last section of music, look for albums by "HKE", "2814", or "Radio Massacre International".
whenever people say somethings ahead of its time is so stupid, people in the mid 2000s weren't cavemen, this sound is also clearly late 90s early 2000s influenced, we need to learn that things arent ahead of their time, its just that the time had good artforms and media
I remember ripping through the backend of my software just to pull these track files and burn them onto cd. However, i forgot how hard songs like Floating Population hit me. The only person i could reminisce about this with is my dad and i wish he was still around to talk to. He’d remember every song and the days we spent together. I miss him so much
I'm sorry for your loss 😞 Glad he was there to make some precious memories though. Stay strong 💙
May his soul rest in peace. It's a bitter sweetness to have such good memories with someone who's now gone...

@@cazal868 This needs to be pinned!
I now realize that this is a very busy soundtrack. It reflects the city theme quite well.
I got this game in 3rd grade without the rushour expansion, and I always wondered how to get the avenues, ground level highways, and more. Long Story short, I still loved and played the shit out of that game.
I then got the rush hour expansion in 4th or 5th grade, and had an even better time while traveling the world.
I miss the old days when things were simple. The song at 12:25 was the one I liked the most, because I realized that everyone has an equally complex life. Miners, office workers, the child seeing the worls with his family, the highschool student getting ready for a test, cities are busy places.
Although playing SC4 isn't the same since we have cities skylines (which is very expensive), it's still a part of my childhood. Driving from Berlin, to Wrocław, and flying to New Jersey, driving past the great lakes, to the Rocky Mountains, and ending up in Florida was one adventure of my life.
My brother passed away in 2015. My mom and I have been listening to an unlabeled scratched to hell burned CD of music from his CD case for the past four years. I never thought I'd find out who the artist was/were, but for these past few years it always reminded me of the music he would listen to and show me as I was growing up. Just yesterday we used Shazam finally and found out it was this soundtrack.
He was a huge fan of the SimCity games. We would always share games and music with each other, and in a way, even though he is physically gone, he still is. Now I really wanna check this game out.
Thanks, T ♡
@@emerald10005 Ok
@@stagpunk6781 I'm so sorry for your loss 😞 I hope you enjoy this game in honor of your brother. The music is incredible.
This was my first real PC game. I played it at the age of 12. 4 years later, I still remember every song....

This has got to my favourite RUclips comment section ever!
So many people with so many different stories, all brought together by beautiful memories of this game...
And I can't believe there was a time when they used to make soundtracks like this. I didn't really appreciate the music much back in the day but now... man...
The way those tracks create a landscape of moods, taking you to places where you've never been, make you beautifully sad and happy all at once. It makes part of me resonate that I didn't even know about.
Something about this music just brings out people's emotional side. I absolutely agree, it's a joy to come here and read everyone's stories. Love dwelving in nostalgia with all of you
its cool but stop being gay about it
A rare, non-toxic comments section of a RUclips video of music from a 17 year-old sim game. The things that unite humanity…
@@callizoom3894 There’s nothing gay about this.
Early-2000s Maxis games' soundtrack were on a league of their own: top-tier music which no other studios even came close to replicating. 20 years on, I'm still listening to their OSTs regularly, and you'd be hard-pressed to find anything similar.
The soundtracks to SimCity 4 and the original Sims+expansions were absolute *masterpieces* .
this is so beautiful. all of it. and it brings me back to the endless days of playing this great game. my childhood, ah.
Same
1:58:08 is my favorite. So calm, so relaxing. Looking to traffic jams in your city. Creating new intersections. Creating new suburban areas. Scolding your 'advisors' or Bob Newbee for not shutting up. Ah, the good old times.
+KoploperMau i see in this song something futurustic and unpredictable and i love it.

+KoploperMau similar to "electric counterpoint" by steve reich

+KoploperMau That moment when your name is Koploper but you've got a Mat'64 on your profile pic, disturbing!
As a kid I didn’t have many friends and didn’t go out that much but I loved this game and would spend hours playing letting my imagination go wild, as an adult I became an architect and this game played a great part in that.
Wow that’s awesome! I’ve always wanted to be an architect too 😊
Me too I didn't spend too much outside because of my parents. But feel really lucky to have played games like these
Listening again in 2020.
Yep!

Pois volte a ouvir novamente 😂
I was like 12 years old of something like that I started playing SimCity. Now after a college, I am a fully certified Officer of Watch. Having no internet most of time, i installed SimCity 3000 and 4k deluxe on my laptop. These games are so enjoyable and time killing. They are perfect for night after watch when you cant fall asleep going across Pacific Ocean.
SimCity 4 is one of my earliest gaming memories. I think my sister bought it at some point. I didn't understand a thing about city management back then, but I loved watching her play. Seeing the buildings growing and watching the cars bustling about. There was something special, magical about it. Eventually, I started playing it myself. I basically just created tiny villages and then cheated cash, so I could plop an Empire State Building in the middle. As time went on, I started to understand the systems behind it. I went from building tiny towns to managing entire cities and eventually to building huge motropolises.
All the while, these songs accompanied me. There's nothing that brings me back to my childhood like this soundtrack. After all these years, it's still my go-to address when I'm writing papers, or when I need to concentrate and think about something. I love reading all of your comments and seeing all the nostalgia and all the little stories that you share. Jerry Martin created a piece of art, and I'm profoundly grateful for it.
Playing Cities: Skylines with this masterpiece playing in the background, city building has never been better. :)

This is perhaps the best soundtrack in the world there ever was.
I'm playing cities skyline rite now, and the ost is kinda awful... i used to remember simcity ones as really good, so i've searched for this... and man, them memories.
Best ost ever.
There are some mods on steam for C:S that put Simcity music in the game as radio stations!
Okay. So this game came out and I didn’t have any money to purchase it. I bought it off eBay when I earned enough money and remember when o first installed it. I was extremely terrible at the game but it is absolutely one of my favorites simply because the OST is so damn good. Memories.
SimCity 4 and Silent Hill 2
True.
After all these years, SimCity 4 still has a big community and is the best city builder ever made.
Such a beautiful soundtrack. Everything about this game was just so right, it nailed everything. But even nailing THE SOUNDTRACK just shows how Sim City 4 really was the complete package.
I loved Sim music back then. I could see myself attending an orchestra show somewhere downtown to hear this, in some alternate reality where talent like this was acknowledged appropriately.
28:10 such an amazing track. Honestly brilliant. Simcity 4 was such a fantastic game
High five, fellow ElectriCITY enjoyer!
I didn't remember how intensely sophisticated the orchestral writing was for this game. Kudos for Maxis for actually getting a talented composer and a real orchestra to create this. This music is really well-done and the orchestral pieces could stand alone as concert works. Not to mention that the mixed electronic music and ensemble stuff is phenomenal as well... such a diversity of types of music (and while I know they brought in other musicians and composers) it's hard to imagine that so much was organized and composed by just one person.
0:23:05 Metropolis is one of my favourite soundtracks. It feels so divine. I listen to it from time to time when I read cyberpunk mangas or when I code.
the nostalgia is real
I still play this game, sooo many steam hours.
Best study music you can find. Perfectly tailored to putting you into a more concentrated and calm state of mind. Every other kind of music distracts me from what I'm trying to get done, but this OST makes me feel laser focused.
same here! i just cannot explain why
2:11:40 is my favorite -- Even when I play SC4 I sometimes force the game to play this track because I don't want to wait an hour for the game music to loop back to the track.
Ryan Worral totally agree
What genre of music is this?
@@isaiahrodriguez4146 Sim City
@@isaiahrodriguez4146 fusion
This and the EpiCenter is really good
'till this day, i still used The Morning Commute as my alarm on my phone, its such a melody to listen that gradually pacing up & complicating, persuading you to get up of bed easy and calming as the melody at the starts then waking you up when things start complicated and noisy in the middle, and finally calming you again at the near end...
Setupthemabomb Because of you mentioning this, I am going to play a SC4 song on my morning alarm now!
Setupthemabomb Its such a great song. What does it mean what does it mean I am thinking on the middle.
It's cool seeing how many people have commented on this yearly since the video was posted.
I found this game at Goodwill for 50 cents when i was about 9 or 10 and played it obsessively for years when I stayed with my grandparents; since there was little else to do. Recently I heard a song that reminded me of this soundtrack and I've been listening to it for almost 2 weeks now while stuck working overtime. I work at a desk all day so this has kept me from going insane. I even hunted down my copy of the game and am going to install it on my old PC when I'm done working OT.
Edit: Ended up downloading it from Steam. My old laptop crapped out but I was so happy to see i could buy it for cheap and have it forever!
I’ve carried a cd of this game in my backpack for over 15 years now. I play it off and on. But carrying it ensures I can play it whenever the mood strikes
ever notice how unsettling primordial dream is to the rest of the soundtrack.
It's unsettling
I once read that it plays when your city is destroyed from a natural disaster or whatever. Is that true? I haven't played the game.
If it does, then how fitting. It's such a post-apocalyptic-sounding track.
1 million views! Glad to be part of that many times over.... this soundtrack gives me good vibes and helps me code. How I miss playing Simcity 4 everyday as a kid.
yup we all have the same memories. To have nostalgic music to code is the best way for me to be productive
this soundtrack is so good it still brings me a bit teary
Absolutely a masterpiece. EpiCentre song is out of this world
This is the music that forms everlasting memories.
Thanks for taking the time to put this together! :)
It's been so long, I need to put up some original work.
+friendstype25 Thanks for putting this up. Love listening while doing homework!
I always regretted to spend so much time on gaming when I was young, except SC3 & 4. Those were precious moments. 7:10 The Morning Commute still gives me goosebumps whenever the mood started to rise...
I regretted them too, but now I got a family and am basically upper middle class, I regret working and would have just set a lifestyle of gaming lol.
There was a time when SimCity 4 was life for me, and during that time, I knew this entire soundtrack front and back. Best songs for me are "Rush Hour," "By The Bay" (DAT CLARINET) and Terrain.
?_?that is an oboe?_?
1:20:16 always makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Was always one of my favorites
Since CS2 doesn't have a large variety of music, I find myself coming back to this often now. Timeless soundtrack
right now
I anit paying for radio stations lol, simcity soundtrack + cities skylines is the ultimate city building experience@@QUIGON85
It's amazing how good Urban Underground is. It's the last track of the official album as well, so what a great way to go out. It's a perfectly executed fusion of jazz and trip hop and the kind of chillout music from the 90s I love listening to, and really quite epic in its production.
Anna Karney had come so far. She made some tracks for Streets of SimCity and SimCity 3000, and they were good enough, but perhaps a bit crude sounding. Urban Underground though - holy hell, what an evolution! The layering of instruments - some of them played live - is just incredible. I don't know of any music she made after SimCity 4, so for now I'll be saying that Anna went out with a bang.
I still play this game all the time. I've had it forever, but the modding community is super strong; even today it is stronger than ever. Great soundtrack: catchy, exciting songs, perfectly fitting for its game.
I stopped for a minute, I didn't want to believe that people still mod SC4. So I headed to ST Exchange, holy crap, you were right. The mods just keep coming. And the best part? I realized mid-commenting that you posted your comment 5 years ago. The community is just amazing...
0:33:22 Floating Population is my favourite soundtrack from the list. It just so beautiful and melodic
Yes! :)
Mine too 💜💜💜
Certainly one of the memorable ones
The outro is a religious experience.
Mine too - I could even play it on my fiddle doubled with the track, it’s SO MUCH FUN to play along with!!!❤
Taking me back to my childhood, in such a good way! The composers are heros, its incomprehensible to me how a game has this kind of good music. I play it when hanging with my friends, cooking diner, chilling in the garden. Masterpiece!
Thank you so much, love to listen to it while I study and it brings back so many memories!
Me,too. This is my playlist for studying😊
Ahh so many incredible memories. This game inspired me to become an engineer. I remember playing it for hours, building and designing. The comments here are so true, I never thought much about the music until now. Every time I listen to “No Gridlock” memories just flood my mind. What an amazing track. That’s the thing, this was the other piece to an amazing game…the sounds. They compliment the visuals. Thank you Maxis for the unreal memories. They don’t make ‘em like they used to. I may be old now (37) but the memories will live on forever.
1:46:12 - now that’s what I came for! Best track in the game
Yeah this was the track! I can't remember why it stood out actually? Always had an impression its used in the game trailer or something but I know it was not.
Beautiful song, always gave me feels even back in the day.
epic one
so ethereal
OH MY GOSH! SUCH A NOSTAGLIA!, i remember playing this in 2014 mannn..... i can't believe it, it feels like just time passed by all this, thank you for everything and memories which i had, with this game and other editions of this game!
Yes this is super nostalgia. I played this game with friends after school around 2009-2012. I remember playing this game as early as 2004 when I was 6, not knowing how to do anything. Then I started using the "Weaknesspays" cheat to earn all my money. Never grew a place above 400000 people though.
37:52 just realised this now, this song is using the same sample as "Shamburger" in Age of Empires 2. Some of these samples are also used in Timesplitters 2 soundtrack
I was looking for THIS comment! It´s the same sample!!
WOAH! That's amazing lol
Cities Skylines is really good listening to some good ol sim city music
+1994CPK I had a really hard time with the Cities Skylines soundtrack. It felt super short. Like I'd heard the whole thing after half an hour of playing. Maybe that's changed since After Dark, I haven't really played that yet.
Honestly, I started listening to the SC4 soundtrack again because I needed more variation while I was playing Skylines.
intereality true, it was short. They did only release half a game though.
Compared to what?
+intereality
There's a mod now with the whole soundtrack!
Got to love the modding community of Cities Skylines :)
The superb quality of this soundtrack is something I'm aiming for as a young musician. It fits the game so well, it serves it purpose so perfectly.
Wow i cant believe i find myself here years later looking for that one distinct song 31- Terrain. Still an atmospheric banger. Thanks for uploading this, truly
Thumbs up listening to while playing Cities Skylines!
Totally going to now. It's way better than the Cities: Skylines Soundtrack, and don't get me wrong, Cities: Skylines really scratch an itch I've had for a while.
yep...great city building music
Sooo many hours spent listening to this, and yet never too much
This music releases endorphins in my brain that makes me want to build cities.
haven't got the game yet, but I definitely will
Just bought this game because I was stressing about my new job. It took me back to the good ol’ days and calmed me down.
We didn’t know we were making memories, just living in the moment.
I definitely recommend listening to this while doing homework, especially if your are having to do research, writing, design work (CAD, Solidworks)
..or StarCraft 2 editor?
Hey this profile photo was taken in the game war thunder and i play this game he's cool too
too bad you can't clearly see what is on the wing.
@@KippurCatArts Big thumbs up for the StarCraft 2 editor.
I have some very strange specific nostalgic memories of the music I would play while working on the Galaxy Map Editor.
Yep. I listen to it while doing engineering design work in CAD
Can't wait to listen to this while playing Cities Skylines 2!
I remember in middle school I was taking an industrial development (I think that's what it's called, I don't remember) class. There was a bunch of different modules that you signed up for and rotated through throughout the semester. One of the modules was on urban planning and development. Basically the entire module was just playing SimCity 4. Shit was dope
Dude I played sim city 4 in my economics class 🤣 teacher thought I was cheating cause I was doing really good I told him I’ve play this game at home 😅 man that was in 2005
aaah coming back to these wonderful music perls, god damn it feels good when you haven't listened to it for a long!
The nostalgia is great here.
This particular RUclips video was nice to listen to while working from home for several months during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Never was a SimCity player (I've always been into The Sims series more), but this is some awesome music -- thanks for putting it up for general consumption! :)
This music was so majestic I still daydream about it after 12 years
In the 7th Grade, I participated in this contest called the "Future Cities Competition". We used SimCity 4 to build a city of the future and created a whole narrative about how it would be beneficial to all. I remember listening to this for the hours-long trip to the city where the contest was held.
I now find myself in that very city studying at the university. I can't believe it's been 6 years.... Definitely going to use this as my study music for those long winter nights.
If I'm not mistaken today marks the 20th anniversary of the release of the base game Simcity4!
This is one of those soundtracks that is TOO good. Like you end up pausing and listening when your favorite tracks come on because it's too distracting.
Dual Monitors on my home PC when I was in my teens.
Screen one: Assignments, essays and google.
Screen two: Sim City 4, building an epic empire.
Times were great.
Damn I wish I had dual monitors as a teenager. How did you get those? I can't imagine many teens have two monitors.
This is so insanely good to think this was from a "mere" videogame. Bring back the good old days.
Thanks for putting this together! BTW, one of the best games ever!
Totally agree!

Thanks, my original inspiration was that every time I wanted to here a piece from Simcity 4 again I'd have to find the title and then scroll through youtube until I found it. Now we can all enjoy nostalgia a little bit easier, thans.
Been using this ost to work since the pandemic started and I went home office. Changed my life. Besides the fact that I grew up playing SC games, mainly SC4. I'm a cities skylines player nowadays and I also play it listening to this amazing OST. I just love it so much.
This game has truly the most beautiful soundtrack ever made. Sims 1 is a close second.
this soundtrack is astonishing
I spent so many hours getting lost to this soundtrack while playing this game. I find this music to be extremely relaxing while working.
I'm scottish, and listening to metropolis (It has bagpipes in the song) while sitting at Largs marina on our boat watching the sun rise over the water watching the seagulls fly and the occasional fishing boat make its way out into the ocean is just bliss! Also love the rest of the soundtrack, perfect when you just want to chill or reminisce about old times...
1:21:54 is the best moment in the whole soundtrack for me. So much attitude, feel like we're on the seedy streets of New York, neon lights above the dive bar, local jazz talent going at it
Yeah, that's definitely one of the best track tracks in the soundtrack.
This and the Sims OST help me focus on my architecture studio assignments
Nowadays games are all early access and broken trash. Sim City 4 was a legend.
When I first played Simcity 4 in 2003,... for hours endlessly, I could escape reality and after a while my visions of my home town, seemed to meld into the game. More like when I was out driving around my town and everything resembled the animations of the simcity towns. I could almost forget which one was which.
One of the things that I would love to have in cities skylines are the rich districts with big houses with trees and poor districts with giant affordable housing buildings.
AND ELEVATED METRO!
Isn't there a mod or an asset for that?
+собакачувак yes but the elevated metro would be separated from the undergound line.
Not sure if you are looking but Elevated Metro was released on the steam workshop (Metro Overhaul Mod). Plus RICO mod you can chose what districts have what buildings and you can have rich areas or poor areas.
rico mod is for ploppers, totally inadequate for those who actually just want to play the game like it should be
You can actually imply low education policies (I think it is called _schools out_ ) on certain districts of your cities so those buildings don't level up and imply high education policies on the "rich" districts so only they level up.
But why would you be interested in keeping peole back from earning a good life all together?
Damn this is surprisingly good! I never played the game oddly, ended here because I like the Sim City 3000 soundtrack.
Just hearing this has violently sent my mind back to my childhood.
I've always liked Terrain, it starts out so ominous and later on it just feels great
I love this game's music, it is so relaxing! Especially "Shape Shifter".
