Fused King Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 I thought I'd give this thread a mild dosis of Fused's gaming music library:D Professor Layton and Pandora's Box Folsense - Live Audio Gets me everytime. The paino, the harmonica, the violin. We need a Layton series inspired theme park I say! Professor Layton VS Ace Attorney Professor Layton's Theme orchestrated Audio Although I still prefer the original, this makes me hope for a localisation announcement for the west come August by Level-5 even more! Rayman: Hoodlum Havoc Land of the Livid Dead Audio I'm still left clueless as to why people think Rayman lost it with Hoodlum Havoc. It's a great platforming with beautiful environments, quirky moments, and inspiring/dary music! Castlevania: Harmony of Despair Hail from the Past remix Audio How I wish I could download this game for the music alone. Wait a minute, ....I've already downloaded the music:D Great tracks have been remixed into even greater tracks! Paper Mario Raphael the Raven's theme Audio This was always one of the more interesting characters in the Mario universe. A wise Raven who needs to appear more in games. I'd like to hear this track orchestrated:laughing: Paper Mario and The Thousand Year Door Doopliss Battle theme Audio Ah, Doopliss. You stole Mario's identity, leaving him in a shadowy state. Still, he met Vivian this way; a smoking hot ghost. This theme really has that tense-battle vibe to it. It feels great to pummel a 'Freak in a Sheet' with a choir of dead children sould in the background:p Super Paper Mario Sammer's Kingdom Audio Yes, I took on each and every one of Sammer's guards; a 100 to be exact, and I am ever so greatful for Intellient Systems to include a sweet track in this area. The music kept me going! Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia Shanoa's Theme (Dusk's Holy Mark) Audio My very first Castlevania, and I immediately fell in love with Shanoa and her theme. SO powerful, so up-beat, and yet so epic! Metroid Prime Trilogy Menu Theme Audio I can't find words for this. Mario&Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story Final Battle Audio I've always loved the EPICNESS of a final battle in Mario RPGs, but this one takes the cake. I can't help but name this theme 'Harmony of Despair'. Little King's Story Tiptoe Kingdom Audio Frère Jacques, Little King's Story style. The people who made this are simply brilliant! Onii King Battle Audio This is one of my favourite themes in LKS, but when you hear the original classical piece from which is was remixed your jaw will drop. Audio (Erik Satie - Gnossienne no. 1)How anyone could extract THAT remix from the original is beyond me. THese guys live on Mt. Fuji as gods I tell you! Worrywart Kingdom maze Audio Damn, the maze in the Worrywart Kingdom with all its freaky posters about the meaningless of life in all stages of life bugged the hell out of me. With this theme in the background I found myself sucking my thumb and hugging my stuffed Kirby Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Dark Groove Audio I believe Alexander Brandon is responsible for the music in the Jazz Jackrabbit series, and boy is he good. I usually use this track to relax a bit after I've listened to too many epic Zelda tracks:bouncy: Medieval jam Audio Again, relaxing, and it should all be elevator music! I sometimes feel that I find gaming music more important than the actual game itself. I'd say that if all games were mute, gaming probably wouldn't be my number one hobby. My main music preference also consists of gaming scores/remixes, so I depend upon new games to bring me awesome OSTs:D
Jonnas Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 Having been playing Radiant Dawn lately, I've stumbled on a few amazing themes. Most of Path of Radiance's music annoys me, but Radiant Dawn is just captivating. Bearer of Hope Audio This song plays twice over the course of the game, both in incredibly difficult "Defend" chapters. The first time is when a subplot reaches it climax. The second, when your army fights a meaningless battle with impossible odds. Thankfully, the music gives you energy to continue in both occasions. Power-Hungry Fool Audio Fantastic arrangement from a PoR theme. The Strong Audio A brief tune that plays in a couple of action cutscenes. Unfortunately, it doesn't actually play in-gameplay, not even as a battle theme. It's blood-pumping. Eternal Bond Audio You already know this one, right? It never gets old.

Captain Falcon Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 Having been playing Radiant Dawn lately, I've stumbled on a few amazing themes. Most of Path of Radiance's music annoys me, but Radiant Dawn is just captivating. I don't know how you managed to limit your post to just four tracks because I was completely floored by Radiant Dawn's soundtrack. Absolutely fantastic. I thought PoR's was good at the time but RD just goes to show how lacking it was for the most part because I remember so many more of the tracks. So much more variety. All the map theme's (like Eternal Bond and Bearer of Hope) are great and always set the mood perfectly. Hymn of the Righteous, Conviction, Dark Traveler... so many good songs. Sorrowful King Pelleas Audio The Fire Emblem games often have character specific themes but I don't think any of them have captured the individual quite like this one does. It sums up him and his situation effortlessly. I'm also a fan of... Zealot's Prayer Audio and it's use for when there are dark things at hand. Sets the tone picth perfect and the way it goes all quiet at the end with the notes still playing. Gives me shivers :p The only thing from PoR that I believe really competes is this... Ike's Resolution Audio It's a composition of the opening few map themes (Like Father Like Son, The First Fight & A Battle and a Beginning) and consesquently doesn't get many levels of it's own - I think it's only used twice.
darksnowman Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 Has anyone noticed how the 16-bit Final Fantasy games have great mountain tunes? FF IV - Mount Ordeals Audio FF V - North Mountain Audio FF VI - Mt Kolts Audio

Absolutely fantastic. I thought PoR's was good at the time but RD just goes to show how lacking it was for the most part because I remember so many more of the tracks. So much more variety. Completely agree. I Pelleas' Theme. And the Radiant Dawn soundtrack is perfect all around. From PoR, the only worthwhile tracks (IMO) were Beautiful Princess Elincia... Audio Lion King Caineghis (much better in the RD arrangement) Audio ...and the previously mentioned Power-Hungry Fool. Also, I just remembered about Wisdom of Ages Audio Glorious.
Captain Falcon Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 (edited) We should all know by now that Golden Sun and The Lost Age had the best soundtracks on the GBA and I've just stumbled on these rather impressive remixes. Some of you might have heard them already, they might have already been posted here, but I didn't want to take the chance that people hadn't heard them. So enjoy - I know I did, am and will be! Venus Lighthouse Audio Aqua Rock Audio Mars Lighthouse Audio The Golden Sun Rises Audio The guy has a couple more on his channel, so take a look, but I feel I've posted the ones people would be most interested to hear. Edit: I've been listening to these all day. If I could thank my own post, I would :p Edited July 31, 2011 by Captain Falcon
Helmsly Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 (edited) A couple of Stickerbrush Symphony/Bramble Blast remix's I like: Serious Monkey Business: Bramble Reprise Audio kamadashipoteto barbed spines remix Audio Smash Brothers Brawl Bramble Blast Audio GBA version Audio 8-bit rendition by djbouche Audio Edited September 29, 2011 by Helmsly
Rummy Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 A couple of Stickerbrush Symphony/Bramble Blast remix's I like: Serious Monkey Business: Bramble Reprise Audio kamadashipoteto barbed spines remix Audio Smash Brothers Brawl Bramble Blast Audio GBA version Audio 8-bit rendition by djbouche Audio I never even really/properly played the original Donkey Kongs, so I was never aware of this beautiful tune until Brawl, but I gotta say since then it's possibly one of my favourite ever video game tunes!
darksnowman Posted September 11, 2011 Posted September 11, 2011 Nice selection of Stickerbrush Symphony remixes there. Bramble Scramble, Bramble Blast and Screech's Sprint were deceptive levels - they seemed like a bright and fun setting with some rock hard barrel blasting, platforming and racing to navigate. However, once you calm yourself down it becomes a breeze... then you can spout in the playground about how everyone that thinks its tough sucks. Myth busted.

darksnowman Posted October 2, 2011 Posted October 2, 2011 I love de Blobs music! Audio My favourite tune in de Blob.

Helmsly Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 (edited) Recently I've been playing Sonic Generations which has a remake of one of Sonic Colours levels, Planet Wisp. I've not played Colours yet, but the music from that level is fantastic: Colours Version Audio Generations version: Audio Edited November 25, 2011 by Helmsly
Captain Falcon Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 Released last month, has anyone had a chance to check out OCRemix's Mega Man X tribute album? I've not got round to listening to every track yet as I've been starting with the ones I know and my memory gets hazy rather quickly the further I stray from the first X game. Here are some that are doing it for me straight off the bat though Maverick Rising: 3-07 'Towering Revolution' (Boomer Kuwanger from X1) Audio Maverick Rising: 2-11 'Let There Be Light' (Dr. Light's theme from X1 and X2 - also includes the Weapon Get and Robot Master theme) Audio Maverick Rising: 1-02 'Super Fighting Robot X' (Opening Stage from X3) Audio Can't wait to see what other delights are in there.
Jonnas Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 I did Tower Revolution is probably my favourite track there. Other highlights: 4-07 - A Flea and His Giant (Infinity Mijinion from X6 & Opening Stage from X4) Audio 2-08 - Put Ya Guns On (Zero Stage 2 from X5) Audio 3-03 - The Leidenfrost Effect (Blizzard Buffalo from X3) Audio 1-05 - Insecta Robotica (Commander Yammark from X6) Audio 5-04 - resolut(-ion) (Area Zero from MMZero 4) Audio There are way too many for me to name. Since I barely remembered a lot of tracks (not to mention I haven't played half of the series), I just left the Album on play and hoped to recognize things here and there. Ended up liking remixes from tracks I'd never heard before.
Hero-of-Time Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Maverick Rising: 2-11 'Let There Be Light' (Dr. Light's theme from X1 and X2 - also includes the Weapon Get and Robot Master theme) Audio I love this tune! I actually just played though Megaman X over the weekend. With my Cube dusted off I slammed in the Megaman X collection. I love some of the tunes in that game especially.... Storm Eagle Stage Audio Zero's Theme Audio Armored Armadillo Stage Audio
Captain Falcon Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 I love this tune! I actually just played though Megaman X over the weekend. With my Cube dusted off I slammed in the Megaman X collection. I love some of the tunes in that game especially.... The first game had an amazing soundtrack but each passing game got a little bit worse. I've never actually played any of the X games after 3 and my only experience is watching play throughs on YT but not much musically ever stood out. I think even the graphics look a bit iffy at times as if they are trying to show too much detail. That album has a couple of Armoured Armadillo and but just one for Storm Eagle and Zero's original theme. Oh well, I'll have to make do with Mega Man Zero Collection - up to the last boss on the first game but it's a bit tricky in parts. The layout may be different but it's still great fun.
