Who thinks 1930s rhythm n blues, early jazz, classic musical numbers and the like have no place in modern gaming?
The Fallout series and Mafia would like a word, is all.
Classical? Death Metal? Rap? Modern Jazz? Country? See almost any sandbox game with a 'car radio' system.
You can't just say a genre can't work in gaming. You can say a genre can't work for a specific game, however.
I sense Wipeout would have lost a certain something with Fallout 3's soundtrack.
Mortal Kombat may have been a little strange with Katamari's musical styles, too.
To me, Dubstep feels like an evolution of the Big Beat genre so popular in the 90s and 00s, Fatboy Slim, Chemical Bros etc.
I feel this, being a good ten or so years old, still has some kinda similarity to the dubstep of today -
(and it's got one of the creepiest videos of its time, too. Shows you can do horror without gore, imo)
