It was 1992. I was in my first year of university. And the game Star Control II was released. It was big, epic, and full of exploration and story and cool starship conflict, and above all else, it had a killer soundtrack. In the game you spent a lot of time in hyperspace, and fortunately, the music for it was fabulous:
Ahhh, great memories. There’s a reason this game appears on so many “top games” lists, and the music is certainly one of them. I even have all the music saved within my music library, ready to pull up for fun times at any time.
Did you play? If so, I bet you have the theme running gloriously through your head now…
