Aw yeah. So I said that I'd do a VGMC on the entire soundtrack of Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball, and here it is. This will be a rather long VGMC, due to the fact I'm covering 7 songs from the soundtrack(I already did 8-bit Adventure in VGMC 18). All of the song here are the type a DJ would put on, using lots of awesome electronic beats. So, without further ado, LETS DO THIS!
*listen to the songs via the links provided*
Anthem - Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball
Using a neat echo effect, this piece really does feel like it's playing in the large room that is most of the arenas in the game. It uses a lot of repetition but changes it up to where it's still fresh and mixes things up. It uses a lot of sounds, the main one being this style of guitar. Other than that the song has a wide variety of electronic sounds and beats. It usually has a lot going on, just like every match of the game! It's a pretty fitting anthem, I have to admit.
Ball Point - Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball
This piece uses the same echo effect as the last one, adding up to the same feeling. It's also very repetitive, but keeps it fresh with some extra side-beats. It gives a whole new atmosphere to the game, bringing out the whole derby in Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball. It's like a mosh-pit theme, making all the chaos in each game feel very natural. It also brings in a sort of competitive vibe to the games it plays durring. It pumps people up, which is good for the competitive nature of the game.
Touch My Spleen - Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball
This piece is one epic one in the beginning, quickly jumping into a sort of dubstep style, maintaining the same feeling as the previous two. It's it's a song that just catches you, carries you, and drops you repeatedly if you loose yourself to it. It uses a wide variety of electronic vibes that just grow on you before the end of the song. Honestly, the beginning is the best part of this piece, reminding me of Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon's Ressurection piece.
Aviatrix - Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball
Using much less sounds at a time, this piece starts off as a really echo-y piece, and then focuses into a much catchier tune. It's like club music, it repeats a lot yet still doesn't feel too repetitive. It changes things up enough, and is a lot easier to listen to due to there being a lot less to take in at once. It uses only electronic beats and tunes with maybe a quiet background drum. It's really fitting when you're in the zone and you're calmly wiping the floor with your opponents.
Tiny Boulder - Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball
I'm not exactly sure why, but I have a thing for this song. It's really fun to listen to, having such an atmosphere that feels so lighthearted, yet retaining the intensity of the game at hand. It has it's calms before it's storms, which work really well in complimenting each other. It's got that perfect balance of having just enough sounds going on at once, but never too many. It's entrancing, yet never pulls you from the fun of the game. It's catchy, it's fun, it's my personal favorite of the songs in this soundtrack!
Submarine - Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball
With plenty of authentic submarine sonar sounds, as well as other sounds that represent the deep oceanic depths, this song hits the nail on the head when selecting a proper theme. You can just get lost in this song as easily as you could in an actual submarine ride. While it's not intense and doesn't fit the whole high-action pace of the game, it does add a unique flavor to the atmosphere. It has very entrancing melodies that aren't very catchy, but add up to beautiful music.
Chodge Darger - Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball
Fitting the "fast-paced and high quality action" bill perfectly, this piece is fast-paces and high quality. It's very catchy and fun with it's intense tunes. It utilizes many different styles of electronic music to create it's own style. It may repeat it's beats often, but they're so catchy you're just wanting it anyways! It may be short when compared to the other songs, but it'll require a few clicks of the replay button to satisfy your need for it. It's a dang good summary of the feeling you should get when playing this game.
So yeah, there are all the awesome songs from this game. I hope it was awesome, like this awesome OST. A cool thing to note is how they all play in the game. They just play one after another on loop, no matter what you're doing in the game, making it feel like theres a DJ in the club!
