Introduction to the Study of Video Game Music
This text is intended to serve as an introduction to the study of video game music. It was initially conceived as a companion to an introductory video game music course that takes a multi-faceted survey approach to the material. Therefore, this text can be used in accompaniment with an academic setting. It can also be useful for anyone that is generally interested in learning about video game music, but does not have a very solid musical or technical foundation. As it was intended to accompany a course in which non-music majors could freely enrol, the text is accessible to nearly everyone, and covers the topic of video game music very generally.

Requiem para el Jefe Final
Réquiem para el jefe final es un recorrido a lo largo de 40 años de expresión musical en los videojuegos, el arte total que impera en el siglo XXI. El libro reúne a los más importantes departamentos, compositores, álbumes y materiales relacionados con las bandas sonoras que han marcado el sector, contenidos de aquellas obras que han deslumbrado por su apartado sonoro. Todo ello narrado mediante una visión académica que trata de analizar y extraer jugo a la disciplina, enfocado de manera amena y sencilla desde la musicología al tiempo que se le da un trato divulgativo a los creadores que se encuentran detrás. La música es un ingrediente fundamental de la experiencia de juego y a su vez convive fuera del plano audiovisual para el que nace. Su influjo se desata desde el prólogo hasta la apoteosis en la que —de manera habitual— el héroe se enfrenta al archienemigo acompañado de una pieza, un réquiem que hace de clímax antes de la composición de los créditos. Réquiem para el jefe final es en esencia un trozo de historia de la música contemporánea.
