This is one of the best things I've heard in a game Elizabeth, from BioShock Infinite, composed by Garry Schyman ---- Taking it back a few years, the original Tenchu: Stealth Assassins had fantastic music for every stage, which played prominently over any action that was happening on screen. Tenchu 2 was my favorite in the series but they did something really weird, they removed the music in every scenario but cinemas and boss fights, and said tracks were usually only a minute long at the most. Anyways, there is an entire soundtrack for T2. The US version of Tenchu: SA had a few extra levels, both with amazing songs. When I was a teenager my dad asked me to burn him a CD of this music so he could play it in his college classrooms while students worked, so it definitely has appeal outside of games. The Composer for all Tenchu music is/was Noriyuki Asakura. The songs are all hybrids of eastern and western styles, and they all really speak for themselves. "God of a Heretical Religion " - infiltrate the manji cult cure the princess execute the corrupt minister initially North America only cross the checkpoint initially North America only training mission and a few from Tenchu 2 Kengeku (boss fight theme) Rasetsu (boss fight theme) Mugen (end credits) ---- BeanpolePeckerwood fucked around with this message at 04:28 on Jun 30, 2014 |

I agree with this. I could never figure out exactly what made all the music in MGS1 so drat good.

Commander Keenan posted:My favorite console for VGM is the Mega Drive/Genesis. A lot of people don't like it for the robot fart sounds it commonly produced, but here is a selection of tunes I hope people would like. Herzog Zwei had all kinds of kickass music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmtC76WSsic A Breach of Contract https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EgXd7hTYIvk The Mournful War Not bad for the very first RTS game. And it had loving SPLIT-SCREEN! Commander Keenan posted:Road Rash - "Sierra Nevada" - Rob "God" Hubbard (The drum solo bit just out of this world) I used to play Skitchin, as well as Road Rash, and I have the music from this first stage embossed on my eardrums. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfKJAqxk4_E&t=73s Notable track titles from the terrible Skitchin soundtrack: "Eat My Junk", "Jerky Curtains", "Let's Plow", "Silken Liver Slipper", "Smells Like Tuna", "Sniff", and the ever charming "Spicy Placenta". Commander Keenan posted:Ecco the Dolphin Hey, if you like Ecco, you might enjoy Kolibri, a side-scrolling hummingbird shmup from the same studio. It's a rare 32x gem with awesome music. My favorite track is at this stage https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ds5klrkqvCg&t=459s Expiry Hard to hear over that drat laser, though. Some dude managed to extract the whole soundtrack off the cart a little while back. Otherwise it's really hard to find in any decent quality. Most of the stuff on youtube sounds like it was recorded from tv speakers.

Commander Keenan posted:Holy crap, I have never heard this before. Sounds so good! The game looks great too. I'm tweeting Ed Annunziata about it right now. Here's the one I found: OST Kolibri was the last cart I ever purchased before getting a Playstation and going down that road. It was a nice way to go out. VVVVVVVV No prob, goon sir.

As an epilogue to my Tenchu 1&2 post back there... I had this stuck in my head ALL DAY. Tenchu 3 - Theme from Ronin Village Different developers on the game, but Asakura returned to compose the music.
