Neil D. Voss' first major contribution to the field of video game music was his Tetrisphere soundtrack, which was recognized by Nintendo Power as "Best Soundtrack" of 1997. Voss then continued his collaboration with H2O Entertainment and provided the soundtrack for The New Tetris. Both games were released for the Nintendo 64.
After parting ways with H2O Entertainment, he began working with Orbital Media on a Gameboy Advance game called Racing Gears Advance, which was released in 2004. IGN awarded the game their "Best Use of Sound" title.
Style
Neil D. Voss primarily composes music that is similar to modern techno, electronic, and trance music. His work in The New Tetris also hints at various ethnic influences, which were in line with the game's world culture imagery (e.g. Mayan temple, Saint Basil's Cathedral, etc.)
Voss is also known for producing
Commodore 64 music, most of which can be found in the
High Voltage SID Collection.
