Oh, yessss. Duck Tales’ Moon Theme owns on sooooooo many levels. DL the MIDIs to get various different versions of it. http://gh.ffshrine.org/midis/3/109 Co-sign on Rescue Ranger’s Tree Zone music. I also love Happy Cat Factory theme.
I LOVE F-Zero GX’s soundtrack. The Theme for Sand Ocean is freaking spectacular.
Well since the old VGM thread has been found I guess this one can be closed unless the mods say otherwise.
I’ve got some mp3’s where the name starts with cursor_, ie cursor_mario3.mp3.
Found it on a site, and would love to get more from these guys, but have been unsuccessful in finding anything. Anyone got any info? Kind of sounds like it’s sped up, but then they shout out in one song, and the voices aren’t chipmunkish, so, go figure.
*Arcana Boss Themehttp://gh.ffshrine.org/files/snes/Arcana/boss_battle.mid
This is a SNES game I’d never heard of until I was searching for different MIDIs to DL at Galbadia Hotel. This is a simple track but it’s still very good.
*Sam & Max: Hit The Roadhttp://mirsoft.info/gmb/music_info.php?id_ele=MjQ0MQ==
It doesn’t matter if you’re familiar with Sam & Max or not, these tunes are just so awesome. Some of the tracks just change pace in the middle of the song. You may have to register at Mirsoft if you aren’t already a member but the few seconds it will take to do so are awell worth it to hear this stuff. DL it. NOW!!!
*Space Megaforce (Super Aleste) http://gh.ffshrine.org/midis/5/246
It doesn’t have all of the tracks but 6 songs is better than none. Some of the best music in SHMUP history.
*Cybernator http://gh.ffshrine.org/midis/5/53
An underappreciated SNES gem with some fantastic music. No one has made MIDIs for the entire game yet but this does have some of the game’s best tunes.
“Heya, Reggie. Whaaaat’s happening…yeah, I’m going to have go ahead and recommend this album…from um…Shadowhaxor’s site…yeah.” takes a sip of coffee “It’s called um…Thunderforce: Project Absolute Area. I believe it’s from an unreleased Thunderfoce sequel. So I’m going to have to go ahead and ask you to download it and if you would enjoy it, that would be great.”
Wow, so much badassery has been overlooked in this thread so far.
Jets ‘n’ Guns! The soundtrack here is all incredible, done by an indie band called Machinae Supremacy. You can download stuff from their official site here: http://www.machinaesupremacy.com/webography.html including most of the JnG stuff. The new JnG Gold stuff is only available with the game, right now, but the game is IMO worth picking up anyway.
Megaman games have always had some badass music, from the Crush Crawfish theme of X3 back to Fireman’s famous tune from the very first game. After X3 the quality of music went through the floor, but there are still some good tunes. That said, even up to X3 gives you 10+ games worth of incredible music, and it’s almost ALL good.
On the RPG front…I’m SHOCKED nobody’s mentioned Chrono Trigger (and its famous remix project, Chrono Symphonic) yet. Grab CS here: http://chrono.ocremix.org/
Cave Story and its Remix Project are also amazing. Snag the game here: http://www.miraigamer.net/cavestory/ or at a million other mirrors. Under Music on that site you can also find the Remix Project, the OST, and plenty of other remixes of the game’s tracks. The game is VERY much worth playing, probably the best sidescroller of the decade.
Does anyone have an mp3 of Fei Long’s stage theme from Alpha 3? I’ve been looking for that for a while and couldn’t find it on the sites that were linked to here.
