Requiescat in pace.
This is a thread for game music that you can easily enjoy just throwing on for hours. Old school Sonic games do this a lot for me.

I don't know if "Favorite" is the right name, but these two are still burned into my brain from way way too many hours of playing (I normally turn music off in games, but these I always left on):

Pet me.
The game pissed me off, but I loved the music from Sonic 2 on the Game Gear. Scrambled Egg zone seriously pissed me off, but the song was worth the trouble.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5iCrDBH4OY


Also always loved the boss music for Castlevania, real simple loop, but appropriate.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hb2VQmWQ-J8

And also the rest of the music for Raptor:Call of the shadows. I played the poo poo out of the shareware version.

You know how Genesis games had a certain sound to them? The Ooze had probably the most genesis-sounding music, and I love it.

I thought you were actually gay, I mean...
So did I, for a bit, but then I found out about the prohibitive standards of hygiene, and all that DANCING!
First thing that came to mind with game music loops was the SNES game Star Fox. It has a lot of great songs to begin with, but I've always liked the chill control menu music.
