A group of musicians that perform together.
Games prominently featuring celebrities, who either endorse the game or act as the focus of the story. Games with characters who happen to be played by celebrities are not always tie-ins.
Electronic music is one of the broadest classifications of music, and has been a staple of video game soundtracks since the 90s. The genre's main trait is the use of electronic instruments.
Video games based on specific albums, rather than a musical act's entire body of work.
Hip-Hop is a type of urban culture that has been featured in many videogames to varying extents, in movies, and in all around pop culture. Hip-Hop includes Rap music/Emceeing, graffiti art, DJ'ing, and breakdancing.
Games often feature in-game music, however some have taken the effort to create their own radio stations, with DJ's, talkback, and a variety of music.
Games that may no longer be sold because the rights to them are split in such a way that no one has the rights to sell them.
Meant to make musical games more accessible as well as permit everyone to let loose their inner musician, these peripherals can look very much or not at all like the instruments they emulate.
Music based games may be growing in popularity now, but there have always been musicians in games. Whether they're in a band, play an instrument, or just sing into a hairbrush, these characters live for music.
This multiplayer game type has become a multiplayer mode of choice amongst hardcore fans of rhythm games. Two players play a song on the same difficulty in a battle for score supremacy.
Red Book is a set of specifications for audio CDs. For games it refers to early CD-ROM titles with background music recorded and played back as audio tracks, instead of being generated by the hardware. Its called Redbook Audio because the book that lays out all the specifications has a red cover.
These men and women are present to officiate sporting events and racing games. Notable referees in the article are: Lakitu, John Madden, Punch-Out! Referee and DJ Jazzman.
A widely popular music style, originating from a fusion of blues, R&B, country, and jazz. Includes sub-genres such as punk, heavy metal, synth rock, and pop rock, among others.
A distinctive song associated with the game (often played during the introduction/end credits). Note: This concept deals just with songs with lyrics, as opposed to instrumental pieces.
