I don't know how many of you are familiar with the game Evil Twin. It's pretty old.
I never got to play it myself because for some reason it never ran on my PC properly, but those of you who are familiar with it probably agree with me that the game has some of the single best soundtracks I've ever heard in my life.

They're composed by a Frenchman known as Bertrand Eluerd. Sadly the man died in 2005 at age 40.
Probably the only artist's death which I'm genuinely sad about. I'd love to have heard more of him... Maybe even work with him someday if I ever go through with my dream of becoming a Gamemaker. Guess that day will never come...

Anyway, I'm under the impression that despite his genius, the man didn't really manage to make too big a name for himself to general public. So I'd just like to link you guys to his music. It's classical/OST's mostly, so it may not be for all of you, but for those who don't mind. Enjoy it.

The site seems to contain most of the stuff his music was used in, but they only show a couple of tracks. You'll have scavenge youtube if something catches your interest.
edit:
ah wait, just click the bandcamp links on the players, you can listen to all of it there :P
direct link to that: http://bertrandeluerd.bandcamp.com/

TL;DR
Hey guys, here's a dude that made some sick music. Check it out

Well ultimately it's just "Hey guys, here's a dude that makes some sick music. Check it out"

But listening to this has got me melancholy and in a weird mood... made the post sound kinda dramatic...

Well, certainly "sad" music can cause melancholy.

Any kind of music can cause melancholy.

Of course.. But, It all depending on your mood/taste of music... Doesn't it?

Not as much on your taste of music because If you heard a track during something important, it may just be enough to have good memories when listening to said track again.
