Oh man oh man I love South Quarter, you're right, it is beautiful, and for me it recalls the ending, which - totally avoiding spoilers I adore completely. But it also reminds me of South Quarter and Garrett's place and returning somewhere safe after creeping around with my heart pounding and "It's not much, but it's home." In any case, underlying darkness describes a lot about Thief, I think. Including the protagonist, heh.
I know you only ever hear me complaining about the fandom, but it really does have some awesome, talented people - just about every one of these tracks wouldn't have happened without them (except the TDS ones, which Brosius uploaded himself. This is because he is made of awesome).
it's just amazing to me how these songs can all have so much building tension in them
Oooh, I hate how this is really all I had time to upload, there's others like Framed, which is just pure tension in mp3 format. As well it should be; it's the music for breaking into a police station. One day I need to upload the music from Assassins and Auldale for you as well. I think you'd be interested in hearing them.
Eavesdropping is really my favourite of the T2 mixes, because I have assigned all sorts of ridiculous ideas to it. Seriously I hate the Servants and man if I ever send Garrett to Silent Hill there's gonna be Servants all over the place. ("Okay, so the thing he hates above just about all else is being controlled, right, and this is a procedure that makes you capable of nothing but being controlled, right, and he'd never be alone even in his own mind and the kicker is, it's horribly painful and the only escape is death! It'd be the best way to torture him ever! Yes, I think about ways to mentally destroy my favourite characters all the time! Where are you going?")
...Although the Haunts really do present some serious competition, with that laughter. And nothing will ever equal the Cradle. (It's that - what is it? It's like a tick, or a rattle, or, or something.)
One Bioshock music post with bonus starry-eyed babble, coming right up!
