RuneScape/Awesome Music

Sometimes, MIDI can work better than expected...

• RuneScape MIDI power! comes apparent in "Route Of The Problem," which is the second in a series of amazing tracks, all based on the same theme. The first is "Alternative Root" and the third is "The Route of All Evil."
• Temple Desecrated is one of the best songs This Trooper has heard in game. it plays when you face down the Balance Elemental in While Guthix Sleeps. Other good tracks are Battle of Souls, which plays when you fight Nomad in Nomad's Requiem, The Sound of Guthix (plays on your way to the Stone of Jas (Also WGS)), Face Off plays during the fight with Zanik in The Chosen Commander, But We Can Fight plays at the Wham! Line of The Chosen Commander, and lastly The Void Stares Back plays when you fight the Pest Queen.
• Return of Lucien takes Temple Desecrated to a next level.
• Another from The Chosen Commander, during the cutscene with Zanik in the caverns, and then after you defeat the avatar of Bandos. The music makes things even more heartwarming.
• You will never forget the moment you step into the Duel Arena Hospital and hear this.
• Destiny, unlocked at the start of the game.
• Christmas Caverns. For a Christmas song, it manages to reach the heights of numerous modern Christmas songs in terms of quality.
• The "Deathcon II" quest of Halloween 2011 provides "DCII Mash-up (Infinity Mix)", an awesome techno track mixed by the talented spider DJ Infinity, previously known as Minstrel Web. As a remix, it's actually said to bear similarity to two other great tracks, "Zaros Stirs" and "Zaros Zeitgeist".
• "One Piercing Note" is a quest designed around sound and music, and is the first quest to be entirely voice acted. When you first walk up to the abbey, you hear Valerio the troubadour playing an impressive tune. When you enter the abbey, you learn that they practice music in their worship. Their choir sings about St. Elspeth, and is also quite impressive. As you continue the quest, you'll wander between Valerio and the abbey a few times, and the music will change accordingly. At the climax of the quest, one more new track starts to play, "Citharede Requiem". It switches between the choir singing their song about St. Elspeth, and Valerio singing outside about the woman whose death you've been investigating. The two songs complement each other perfectly, providing an excellent backdrop as you chase the killer throughout the abbey.
• Tzhaar Supremacy I, a fine example of a good use of heavy percussions.

Dungeoneering

• Born to do this, a heroic main theme of Daemonheim. Shadow-Forger Ihlakhizen's theme puts a new take on that.
• Some Dungeoneering bosses like Night-gazer Khighorahk have a great theme.
• Adorno VII, one of the furnished floor battle themes.
• Rammernaut says hi.
• This Troper has the track for the Luminiscient Icefiend on his ingame tracklist. Starting slow and ominous, it grows to a glorious (read: Lord of the Rings) peak just before the end.
