Sometimes when we're playing video games, going to the movies or watching television, we get so caught up in the experience as a whole that we don't really think about the individual parts. This isn't necessarily a bad thing. In fact, it may be a testament to just how talented the creators of these media forms truly are. If a score or soundtrack is so appropriate that the audience never even thinks about it, doesn't that mean it's doing its job? Enhancing the overall experience without becoming a distraction... such a strange goal for those in charge of integrating music into these formats: When they do something right, people won't notice they've done anything at all.
More on this later. Maybe.
