Just remembered this absolute banger of a Boss Track

This game sold the megadrive to me back in the day. I still have the old issue of CVG reviewing it. Peak late 80s/ early 90s 16- bit sis scrolling action game stuff. I your post made me load up my copy of ultimate megadrive collection. Something about them old sega soundtracks that just slaps!

One of the many many stunning pieces from Uematsu:

Original



Pixel Remaster



Bonus FFV:

 

[RetroGamingUK]

Video game music peaked on the Saturn

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

Some of you retro crew will enjoy this new vidcast from the great State of the Arc guys who are covering the music from each FF era, starting with NES.

 

[Chuck Berry]

More underrated and overlooked Genesis rockers. Tommy Tallarico is the man.



Love the bass in this. CRUNCH.

 

[Chuck Berry]

This sound IS 1993 to me

 

[No BBC=Anger]

The Bomberman Hero OST is some acid jungle DnB.



Garage style (UK)



More DnB goodness



Funami FM GTA2 Acid electric DnB



Sonic CD main menu JP

This one is for all the technical fighting game players among you. We watch each frame and react with precision and complexity….. and it’s even better when we face eachother. Remember the days when you fight a goid player and your heart beats a lil bit faster? All that practice on the console version then you come arcades and flex your muscle? Remover them days ? This one is for you if you do. Remember the Rush? Seeing VF2 in all its glorious motion…. Looking like something that would be impossible on a console….. but sega always found a way. Gotta love them.

I still need sega rally one and two in a yakuza game or something!

Sometimes, just now and again, something in life will surprise me.

You sir, I never had you down as a man of culture.

VF2 is an amazing game and that’s the 2nd best tune on it. Wonderful stuff

More Saturn goodness…

To this day, I'm still in awe of the magic Uematsu put into FFVII's soundtrack. Absolutely mindblowing compositions even today. Its like, you could catch the undertones and connect with the mood of any given scene in the game through them. Each track paints a specific picture.



Narrative music such as this doesn't happen as often nowadays imo.

 

[No BBC=Anger]

90s LEGO games slap.

1080 Snowboarding on N64

The Bomberman Hero OST is some acid jungle DnB.

My favorite is Mega Bomberman (MD)



I spent hundreds of hours playing it.

This track is printed in my brain.

 

[No BBC=Anger]

Deadly Arts N64

 

[darth.shrimp]

Lords of Thunder has been posted already, so I don't have anything to add, other than some more Guardian Heroes.

 

[FewRope]

Pilotwings 64 has the best soundtrack in the system imho

 

[Chuck Berry]

So 90s. So Capcom. And an underrated as fuck game.

 

[MazingerDUDE]

 

[Sgt. Pinback]

The final boss of 90's video game music, and the greatest intro sequence ever.

I thought this would be a good post for this thread.

The Roland JV1080 was like a holy grail sound module back in the day. I actually had one hooked up to my MPC2000xl and my S950 back in the days.

Never realised how many games it has been used on though….. it’s the sound of the 90s!

So just bumping for hilarity. Friends Mom asked us if we knew more music that "sounded like this" for her aerobics. Apparently she's been using his Killer Cuts SNES CD she ripped to an ipod to teach her class for ages because it's high tempo and has a good beat.

No idea but the idea of a bunch of 40+ year old women getting fit to this is just so damn funny.

Still a banger after all these years. It may not be the best megaman game by a long shot but it has a special place in my heart.

 

[Hudo]

Hudo is right.

Great thread -- a lot of the stuff I would instantly think of is already posted but I didn't notice this yet:





I was always very impressed with the DreamWeb soundtrack as I think I remember reading it was made on a PortaStudio. I had the Amiga version so always assumed the vocal samples came from the PC version but I think they're actually from all over the place (inc the original Planet Of The Apes?!) There was a nice creative period from the late eighties into the mid nineties where nobody thought clearing samples should even be a thing.

- Full original playlist on YouTube
- Ooh, there's also a remaster (which I am now gonna go listen to) Side A, Side B
