The Ratchet & Clank 2 Soundtrack is an Unabashed Masterpiece

It's Sequel Time - and even with twice the runtime i'm still struggling to put into words just how mindblowing the Soundtrack for Ratchet & Clank 2 / Going Commando is, but here's my best attempt. In this musical deep dive we're taking a look at the music theory and production behind this OST and try to find out how David Bergeaud and Niels Bye Nielsen were able to craft a Soundtrack that's not just as catchy and iconic as the original, but goes above and beyond. Link to the first Video here: "Why The Ratchet & Clank Soundtrack Is A Perfect Fit"    • Why The Ratchet & Clank Soundtrack Is A Pe...   You can listen to some of the OST on David Bergeaud's Soundcloud:   / bergeaud_composer     / bergeaud   To this day the Soundtracks were never released or made available for purchase. ________________________________________ Moar Links n stuff: Thanks to ‪@CrystalFissure‬ for letting me use parts of his Interview with JP8K and David Bergeaud.
