The Adventuress

Music brought to you by the letter “D”

Doublefine Productions has taken yet another leap into the world of technology with their release of the very SECOND edition of the Psychonauts soundtrack.

Why, might you ask, is that so special? Because before this, there has NEVER been another game with TWO soundtracks for the same ONE game.

Alright… I’m sure that’s a lie. I’m sure there are plenty of other games out there that release more than on soundtrack cd. Heck, I’m sure there are some games have three or maybe even A MILLION soundtracks released.

In fact, a quick search on GameMusic dot com reveals that Final Fantasy XII has no less than 14 soundtrack cds associated with just that one game. Sure, it’s a bunch of nerdy music people who have recreated the heart wrenching tunes of the game, but there are 14 nonetheless.

Now that’s just crazy.

Don’t focus on him too hard… he might put you under hypnosis.

The first Psychonauts’ soundtrack is filled with music from the various levels of the game. Do you remember when you delved into the mind of the sexy levitating psychonaut teacher, Milla Vodello? In her mind of minds, she was a disco dancer and wasn’t afraid to show it. Perhaps you loved the music from that level so much, you may just wish to purchase the cd and listen to it over and over and over and over again on repeat until your mom comes down to your basement bedroom, kicks down the door and beats your head in with a two by four.

That’s a little over the top, I know, but you could still do that if you wanted.

Here’s a list of the songs from the first soundtrack:

1. The Meat Circus
2. Whispering Rock
3. Stay out of the Moonlight
4. Hagatha’s Home
5. Happy Flowers
6. The Lungfish Lair
7. The Milkman Conspiracy
8. Dr. Loboto’s Lab
9. Duel with the Critic
10. The Catwalk Phantom
11. March of the Inmates
12. Sasha’s Immaculate Mind
13. The Censors Unleashed
14. Black Velvetopia
15. The Wild Bull Run/El Odio
16. The Matador
17. Gloria’s Secret Garden
18. Bonita’s Tragic Muse
19. Bunk Time
20. Title and End Credits

Is he trying to levitate me? Probably. I know I would if I could.

The second Psychonauts’ soundtrack has all the music from the cutscenes throughout the game. You never know when you might need to hear that piece of cutscene music that filled your heart with the glee of a thousand howler monkeys. Oh, the very thought of it warms the cockles of my blackened and evil heart.
