The nuances of game music are as deep as the art, story, game mechanics....there are layers for sure in terms of the needs for a AAA title vs. small indie project....to then a game jam in 2 days. I'd strongly suggest reading that textbook if you're curious about the role music plays in ways we never considered initially :) shoot me an email joe@past2presentaudio.com if you ever want to chat further as well !

It's an incredible read man! I hope you enjoy, did you buy the book!? Read sections on immersion etc. Pretty standard concept in game music writing :)

Read Winnifred Phillip's textbook on game music! Thanks for the support android love, hope this helps your game!

to why generic music isn't as effective as high quality/original music? 

I couldn't agree more! Yeah man share any research that people may have done on this! Thanks!
