    Elevator Music

    Concept »

    Elevator music is used in many games as a humorous contrast to the action. Although this pleasant, bland muzak went out of usage in elevators in the 1980s, it continues on in video games set both in current times and the future.

    Short summary describing this concept.

    No recent wiki edits to this page.

    Used as a distraction or a brief respite from the action, elevator music in games ranges from relevant to story context (as in the Metal Gear games) to masking a loading screen (like Mass Effect).
