[COLOR="Yellow"]I've been playing a lot of Brawl, which probably has the greatest soundtrack ever conceived. So here's some of the music from that game stuck in my head at the moment:

Checker Knights. Originally from Kirby Air Ride; I'd never heard this song before since i never played Air Ride but I'm glad it was included in Brawl. It's well orchestrated and just epic:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09Wyf081JT8

Theme of Tara, from the Metal Gear series. I could listen to this over and over. Actually, i have:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0F4zkbxdE0

Corneria. A remixed version the the track from the original Star Fox game on the SNES. Just plain awesome. It brings back those nostalgic memories:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXc2vUQKWCQ&feature=related

Boss Theme Medley. Another one from the Kirby series. A medley of all the songs that played during the boss battles. :33 to :56 is the one i remember the most from playing Kirby Superstar as a kid:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4p1BJLlnaXc

Ocarina of Time Medley. What more needs to be said? Zelda music at its finest:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJIM_JwHGFk

Bramble Blast. If you played Donkey Kong Country 2: DKQ, this song played during the level with nothing but barrels. The original was a lot slower, but this version is great as well:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fXC2S-1tGU&feature=related

Yoshi's Island. I did play this game when it first came out, but this song came as a surprise because I'd forgotten how much i liked it. This new version is even better than the original:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkGnVbgRSkk

And there's like 50 more great songs where that came from.[/COLOR]

Can this thread maybe exclude anything from the Zelda, Mario, F-Zero, Final Fantasy and Halo franchises, and anything else obvious that I missed? 'Cause, you know, we're gonna get a lot of those.

Anyway:

The Ikaruga soundtrack is phenomenal, you can find all of it here:
[URL]http://www.ikaruga.co.uk/downloads/soundtrack.php[/URL]

I specifically recommend Trial and Recapture, but I've only heard 2/5ths of the tracks in the game anyway.

Terranigma (I will never EVER shut up about this game) has some great tunes.

The overworld is easily my favourite overworld theme from any game ([URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDNxgOpJOV8"]here[/URL]), some people prefer the underworld though ([URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3mqIDAVObA"]here[/URL]).

This is a great spanish guitar song you discover being played by a small group of wandering people. I actually prefer it to the gerudo valley theme, despite not being even 30 seconds long before looping
([URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xs49xH0di7A"]here[/URL]).

This track is from a romp around a prehistoric jungle ([URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBa8HudCl8s"]here[/URL]).

Starfox (SNES)

Jesus Christ was Koji Kondo completely outclassed for this game.

Gawd. Too many choices to even remotely decide. I'm not going to post links either, because I'm fscking lazy. :cool:

But some of the greatest game music ever made, in my opinion, is found in Final Fantasy IV/VI, MGS3/4, and OOT/MM. :cookie:

I'm going to think of a lot more, later.

Oh, but I will post MGS4's Love Theme, because I think it's one of the most haunting, beautiful songs I've ever heard in a video game.

Liberi Fatali - Final Fantasy VIII http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5f_VBd_17M

My personal favorite video game song and opening of all time.




Posted by WillisGreeny

I've always had an interest for composing video game music, So i've always greatly respected the many composers in video games. As I bought video games over the years I developed a habbit of checking the credits for composer names and studios before even turning the system on. Doing this for 12 years has been really rewarding, since now when I hear a song by Uematsu I can instantly think back instantly to all his earlier work and look for connections to the present, and then try to peice together a possible thinking process for making my own work. It's not what I originally planned on doing when I was 7 by learning all the composers, but that's what my habbit eventually became.

The obvious composers like Nintendo's Koji Kondo, Hirokazu Tanaka, or Square's elites like Nobuo Uematsu, Noriko Matsueda, and Yasunori Mitsuda, are known for their respected works, and its easy to see how their music has changed over the years since their games were very popular. Something a little more interesting, however, is learning about some known composers that are known for certain games but not others.

My Top Five List of Not-so-known-for Video Game Composers:

5. Yoshihiro Sakaguchi. Megaman 1 and 2. Street Fighter.

A lot of people have marked Sakaguchi's work as Bun Bun's (Yasuaki Fujita), but Sakaguchi was the actual composer of Megaman 1 and 2, aswell as Street Fighter 1 I believe.

4. Miki Higashino. Gradius, Contra III.

A lot of people may know Higashino for her Suikoden music and think that's all she ever did, but she was actually the composer for the classic series Gradius, aswell as Contra III. Another thing people seem to not know about her is that she's a she.

3. Jeremy Soule. Secret of Evermore.

Yes, the man who composed the music for Elder Scrolls (Oblivion), Guild Wars, Dungeon Seige, Warhammer, and many other Video games is also the man who composed the music of Secret of Evermore. I had actually learned his name in 96, so when his name kept popping up amoung my friends in later games I'd say "Hey! did you know he did Secret of Evermore's Sound tracks?" and they'd respond with "You mean Mana?" because my friends suck.

2. Yoshino Aoki. Megaman X3.

Another women composer who's frequently mistaken as being a dude on music forums (what's up with this, guys?), popularly known for her songs in Breath of Fire, specifically for BoF II, III, and IV. BUT, before making RPG music, she composed for Megaman X3. Weird turn, eh? Capcom did good though.

1. Duane Decker. Rise of Nations

Now, most of the people I've mentioned on my list are well known for their other work, but Duane is still sortof an unknown guy for all of his work in RTS games. One of my favorites of his is "high strung" in RoN, which I suggest listening to if you haven't already. He's also a composer for Sid Meir's Civilization Revolution that came out not too long ago.

AWESOME THREAD!!

I wonder if anyone actually takes the time to click on someone else's links and listen to the tracks. I'll make an effort to do so... gradually. Anyway... I'll feed you some sporadically, as my list is endless. I will also do my very, very best to add no more than two MGS tracks at a time, which is a major challenge. I love videogame music greatly:


"[url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HB8kur2M2kE"]The Best is Yet To Come[/url]" - Metal Gear Solid

Beautiful song. I don't know what the f[color=yellowgreen]u
ck she's saying, but I rarely listen to lyrics of most songs anyway.


"[url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bryb_gvnAoQ&feature=related"]Minotaur Boss Battle[/url]" - God of War

EDIT: The link was removed, and I could only find one with the actual epic battle.
WARNING! EPIC BOSS BATTLE MUSIC OF EPIC PROPORTIONS! It's also relatively short.


"[url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOSePFr70Ks&feature=related"]Serenity[/url]" - Resident Evil 4

RE4 was filled with excellent tracks, but this one probably sticks with me the most. It's the track for whenever you're in a Save room. Strangely, uh... serene.



"[url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PM1E4ck3pcs"]Climactic Battle[/url]" - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles in Time

TMNT 4 boss battle music, in all its SNES glory. I'm glad I found it.



"[url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMF5EAB_OkE"]Old Snake[/url]" - Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots

The main theme of MGS4. This one caught me completely off-guard when it started playing in the main menu. It starts off differently from the action-movie themes characteristic of previous MGS games, and its title could not be more appropriate.


BONUS TRACK!!

"[url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKlLrbMrkkY"]The Lord God[/url]" - Capcom vs. SNK 2: Mark of the Millennium 2001

This song would play whenever the final battle was with God Rugal. Gets me in the mood to kick some 2D ass.[/color]

Apparantly the song is PAL exclusive, how'd you hear it? Also, am I the only one who didn't give a s[COLOR=lightgreen]h[/COLOR]it about the horse?

Gonna add this:

Shadow of the Colossus: Revived Power.

Easily my favourite in that game.

Nobuo's a genius. There's so much you can say about the soundtrack in this game, and so many songs to choose from, but this one was always my personal favorite because it's Native American sound was unique and unlike any other song in the game. Red XIII who always despised his father and believed he abandoned the Canyon like a coward, later finds out he gave his life to protect it. A touching subplot, and this song tells the story beautifully.

Haunting, mysterious, scary as fu[COLOR="Yellow"]c[/COLOR]k! This is the type of music that critics call "scary and beautiful all at once", which it is, but i prefer to call it music that you don't wanna wanna wake up to hear in the middle of the night.

Not enough Chrono Trigger appreciation on this thread. Frog was always my favorite character and this was always my favorite song from the game, nuff' said.

[URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZg__mP0l30"]You're Not Alone[/URL] - Final Fantasy IX
Lastly, this song was already posted before, but it isn't done justice to hear the song without seeing the scene during which it plays (or during which you play). The song fits perfectly along with the dialogue and actions by the characters, giving the song title that much more of a meaning. And it's not just a cutscene, you get to play out the events as they go along which makes it that much more of an experience. I just thought it was really well put together. If you haven't played the game, don't worry, nothing is really spoiled.[/COLOR]

Posted by maian

Okay, I'm going to make a serious contribution to this thread now lol

AND, I didn't read the other posts so don't mind me if I post several songs people have already posted. :cool:

IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER:

Bramble Blast: DKC2

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73n7HTcmb5g

While I enjoyed Brawl's version, it really only captured the original tune. I just loved the entire feel of this song. DKC2 had such a great atmosphere to it. I really wish subsequent games had that kind of feel to them. I also enjoyed a lot of other DKC2 music, but this one sticks out in my head.

Boss Bossanova: DKC2

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DftL-h4kK4M

While DKC2 is on my mind, I may as well post this one. Great boss tune. Perilous!

Haven Troopers: Metal Gear Solid 4

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkAaIShYEOU

This is an intense song. I love it. There's so many things that just make it awesome. When the notes stop and it just pulses, the tapping beat, and the really cool sounding beginning really just makes this a song that keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Mobs Alive: Metal Gear Solid 4

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xy1TfZu4Hbo

Just a cool song. I wanted to find this song ever since I heard it in the first english MGS3 trailer. And it's AMAZING in the scene it's actually used in in MGS4.

Metal Gear Saga

Even though this song actually lacks the traditional MGS theme, I like it more than MGS1/MGS2's main themes, mainly because it's more consistent. Just a good song.

Ocelot Youth: Metal Gear Solid 3

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_rBcifIg_Y

This one has a really nice sound to it. The slow pounding beat in the beginning just makes you want to listen further, and it gets even better when it gets into the main song. Brilliant.

Love Theme: Metal Gear Solid 4

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cr1qtPkB7q4

By far one of my favorite songs of all time. I think I got goosebumbs when I heard the somber beginning in the opening moments of MGS4. Despite being in Hebrew, it still easily reminds me of ruin, desolation, and almost hopelessness. Extremely well done. On top of that, the lyrics are beautiful in themselves. Search up a translation.

Snake Eater: Metal Gear Solid 3

How could you not like this song? Not only is it so classic James Bond esque, it just carries a good tune. Overall enjoyable to listen to, and a great theme for a game.

Calling to the Night: Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0S9AjMraU20

Such a great song. It just sounds really beautiful with the piano and the tune, good lyrics, and fscking epic.

Gekko: Metal Gear Solid 4

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPRFOc63GGw

This one kind of gives me the same feeling I get when listening to Haven Troopers, but it's a bit different. I love this one because when it's played at the right time, it's amazing. I was terrified at certain moments of MGS4 when you were creeping through the darkness, and a Gekko bursts out of nowhere, accompanied by this music.

Desperate Chase: Metal Gear Solid 4

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXECvXU14hg

SUCH a sick song. It really sounds like...a desperate chase. But wow, it sounds good. I love the background percussion, and how it flows with the main tune. It's incredible hearing this in the game.

Theme of Tara: Metal Gear

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ACcPN79A0ck

Yes, the ORIGINAL one. For those who don't know, the epic exhilerating tune in Brawl called "Tara's Theme" is indeed this song. I put it on the list because after playing through Metal Gear, I hated it SO much that now I love it. Funny how things work out. :(

Life's End: Metal Gear Solid 3

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgiOSqAeL8o

Just a really beautiful sounding song. It carries the appreciation one can have for death. It's short, but it does it's job amazingly.

Let's move on from Metal Gear now. :cookie:

Stone Tower Temple: Majora's Mask

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNDLoncWz30

I can't describe how much I loved this song the first time I set foot into Stone Tower Temple. It was just another freaking amazing job MM did at making a phenomenal atmosphere. To this day this is one of my favorite Zelda songs ever, even though it's pretty repetitive. I don't know what it is, but somehow it manages to be creepy, mysterious, intriguing, and soothing at the same time.




...Huh. I've spent a long time making this post and now desire to do something else. ALAS, I will add more to my list later. :cool:

That was hands down the worst music in the game. Or is that why you remember it?

Can't remember it, probably because it was a crappy remake of some other Zelda tune. let's see...

...yeah, and it's not very good either, unless you have an fetish for parts of tunes you've heard before.

Although the game was pretty crappy for being part of a best selling series, Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII- had some good soundtracks. An evolved version of some FFVII tracks and some newer ones. I did however find some to be put in the wrong moment in the game as well as some should have been a bit different in instramental play like [SOLDIER Battle] had a kick *** intro but the rest of the track didn't fit the fight...

Ant, do you happen to have the Majora's Mask Orchestrations album? There's a really good mix of the Astral Observatory music on that. Were it not for the fact that it's a remix of sorts and not straight from the game, I probably would've posted it.

[COLOR="Yellow"][URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eb-wYJUgfME&feature=related"]Last Dungeon Theme[/URL] - Wonder Boy III: Dragon's Trap (SMS)

Wonder Boy is one of those franchises that not many people know well enough to appreciate it, and because of that this is one of those songs that not many people know. It's the theme you always hear in the Wonder Boy games right at the last castle before confronting the final boss; this is the version from Dragon's Trap on the Sega Master System, but different versions of the same song appear on a lot of the games in the series.

And if you were wondering how awesome this would sound on a guitar:

That's what rock music was all about.

"Ain't nothin but a hound dog"
"I'm going to rock the house"
"rock around the clock"

basically sex here, sex there, sex everywhere, sex sex.

How can anyone consider this great music, I swear to God. There are gameboy MIDIs that sound better than this.




Posted by WillisGreeny

It's not a great song, but it's not terrible...




Posted by Speedfreak

Maybe the fully orchestrated one isn't, but that midi is really awful.

Okay I'm sorry, I've broken the unwritten rule that we absolutely do not take the piss out of eachothers music.
