Songs like: Icarus from Deus Ex: Human Revolution

The title says it all. I dig the song and am looking for more like it, whether it be from video games or other composed music from elsewhere.

Please and thanks.

Side note: I like to listen to songs like this while on the train and imagine it be a song accompanying a sequence within a film. Always feels like the right kind of music.

Edit: Or anything similar to Ludovico Einaudi. If you haven't listened to him and like contemporary piano, it's your lucky day to go on a musical adventure.

I do dig the song and I appreciate you posting it, but it does not feel quite as "epic," if you will, as Icarus. Although, this song would have good strength in the applications I wish it to apply, so thank you.

A quick Google search for "Steamgifts formatting" will give you all the answers you'd need in the first listing. :)

Anything by two steps from hell will give that "epic" feeling

Also when I listened to icarus it kind of reminded me of some of the songs from the dark knight.

Ya Hans Zimmer, and Martin O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori (halo) are always good to listen to.

Kotaku mentions Icarus in an article regarding video game music and they also say that Michael McCann's work is a bit better in Arkham City (so, there we go, more reminding of Batman!).

Listened to this for about 3 hours straight one time. Had headphones on and was playing at a decent volume. Once I stopped playing it I could still hear it...

Last one I promise. Although this one isn't really that similar. Just reminds me of the good old days on SNES

If epic orchestral music is what you're looking for, how about the London Philharmonic playing Suicide Mission from the ME2 soundtrack?

Yeah, I got the second one they did when Amazon had it for $3.99 and someone was posting on CAG about how to get some free $5 Amazon MP3 credit, which is actually when I noticed how great Icarus was (although I've played a bit of DX:HR, I never noticed it somehow).
