Bejeweled II was a big part of my childhood, and when I learned that the soundtrack was available as a module, I knew I had to scoop it up. This module is outstanding. The main loop is approximately thirty minutes long, and it has some extra songs at the end to boot. The samples are great, and the music is forward-moving, calm, inspiring, and many other things, depending on where you jump in. My one tiny gripe is that the main loop doesn't loop as cleanly as I might like, but that's a small thing compared to the other forty-four minutes and fifty-nine seconds of the track. Amazing work!

This is a 21-minute long ambient module, and quite possibly the longest Protracker .mod on the site. Jogeir Liljedahl does an amazing job squeezing a ridiculous amount of music into the smallest space possible—the first pattern alone takes over thirty seconds. Additionally, he does an fantastic job making the most of samples with less-than-great loop points. The music is excellent also. It's structured similarly to Oxygene and Equinoxe by Jean-Michel Jarre, with widely varied, almost independent sub-tracks linked together by calm, ethereal interludes. I listen to this module a lot while doing school; it's perfect for that. Excellent work, Jogeir!
