Taking a break from high-energy combat and deep lore, Gareth Harmer takes a closer look at the music soundtrack that will accompany our adventures in Nexus.

Might be some link goofing in the article because Bandits, Thieves, and Epic Loot is linked twice. Was there a different song that was meant to be embedded #3?
On topic: Damn the music is good. It does definitely have that "spacey" vibe to it as well as many songs having a sort of western theme to them too. I'm really hoping that they release an OST or something. You can't just have the music sitting by itself on SoundCloud without any download options....I can't play SoundCloud on my MP3!

Same- I rarely use the music since I am generally on TS or listening to an audiobook while playing.
However , the little I have heard in WS was freaking great (ESO as well for that matter)
Try the latest beta Nvidia drivers and the current open beta - many people are reporting significant performance improvements.
Currently playing: WildStar, Guild Wars 2, EVE Online, Vain Glory.
Yes, WildStar's score is particularly awesome, but I think some of you are forgetting that big MMOs generally have absolutely fantastic music? WoW obviously, Warhammer Online, Aion is amazing, SWTOR is pure J Williams, Guild Wars of course, ESO is beautiful, Blade & Soul, RuneScape, the list goes on and on...
I think they mean because it is fairly unique music for an MMO. Most others are just fantasy music done really well.
Most of the comments have been along the lines of:
STOP posting about wildstar! "Haters going to hate" isn't an argument for why people dislike it, and it does absolutely nothing new for mmo's!!
so you guys keep doing more features on it...?

Seriously? What game worth playing doesn't require money? Always some kid, who's allowance is less than $15 dollars a month, whining about a subscription fee. Good grief, if you cannot afford $15 a month you should be looking for a job not playing video games.
Great music BTW.
Music is awesome in this game. They really nailed it the same way WOW nailed it the first time you walked into iron forge or stormwind and heard the citys anthem/music play. There is something about wildstars music that really capitivates you while playing the same way World of Warcraft has always done.
Im not a huge music guy in games either, I actually turned off the music in ESO because it just felt more immersive to listen to all the backround noise's of rain thunder nature ect ect... Wildstar on the other hand much like wow is complemented by its score the same way a big budget motion picture is.
Aloha Mr Hand !
Yes, the music is fantastic here.
But the praise must also go out to this article. It's very well written and almost passionately poetic - a refreshing thing in gaming journalism where we usually either get bombarded with cold, uninteresting fact lists or a plethora of internet catchphrases without any real substance or relevant information. Plus, the article shows that the author is no stranger to the sweet science of music himself.
Great job, Gareth!
