Top 10 Medieval soundtracks
My 100th review on this website is coming up, so I thought it was time for another top 10 list. This time it's about the best medieval scores, i.e. the soundtracks of video games set in the time of witch-burning, knights and damsels in distress. This thematic focus goes hand in hand with two important limitations, as this list would otherwise be significantly longer and less coherent.

Top 10 Indie soundtracks
In music, indie is often used as a subgenre: Indie rock, indie hip-hop, indi-ans ... predictable gag. Indie stands for 'independent', usually in relation to larger labels. Artists who don't swim in the mainstream, but in the curious tributaries that are sometimes more and sometimes less rousing. In my experience, there are three things that distinguish this category from the main genres: more creativity, more risk and mixed quality. Because not everything 'edgy' is necessarily good. But this list is not about bad. No, it's to praise the top 10 best indie game soundtracks!

Top 10 Sci-Fi soundtracks
Space. The final frontier. Or the earth in the not-so-distant future. Or even a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. Science fiction is big and beautiful. It explores places we will never reach, times full of unimaginable wonders and dangers; and is therefore a perfect breeding ground for unique games, franchises and their soundtracks. I would like to pay tribute to these today in my Top 10 Sci-Fi Scores. To do this, I have looked at videogames and franchises which are set somewhere in the possible future or take place in alternative universes.
