Over the summer we were back in the recording studio for the follow up album to last year's hugely popular Greatest Video Game Music for recording company X5 Music.
Once again conductor Andrew Skeet has created symphony orchestra versions of a huge range of familiar tunes, from Elder Scrolls, Final Fantasy VII and Mass Effect 3 to Fez, Little Big Planet and Legend of Zelda. Caught on film during the recording sessions, he shares his thoughts in the video below.
