I'll start off with Raiden II's Repeated Tragedy.

A local restaurant had this game, and every time we went, I'd beg my parents for money so that I could play it. I wasn't very good at the game, so I never got past the first stage, and so I heard this song a lot. Really gives me nostalgia.

Also got to shout out Streets, from Timesplitters too. I put a lot of time into this game as a kid, and this song is what got me into futurepop (love me some VNV Nation).

The entire ULTRAKILL soundtrack. great mix of metal and breakbeat.

Hard to pick one track so might as well begin at the start:

Into the Fire

Played River City Ransom with a friend and it got to a point where we simply could not ignore the vibes of the Streets theme.

@mechwarrior2@hexbear.net alright this is our time to shine

for burned into brain it's definitely chiptune music from NES games I played as a kid like:

Big Nose the Caveman - Level 2

Fantastic Adventures of Dizzy - Pirate Ship

The Jetsons - Cogswells Caper! Level 1

also I guess the Quake 3 Rocket Arena 3 theme from back in the day

when parts of this or this come on while playing ESO in the Morrowind region it feels special

There's also a lot of game music I like but from games I never played so I won't list any of those

[–] batsforpeace@hexbear.net 2 points 5 months ago

been listening to Repeated Tragedy, good one

I stumbled on the OST for the unreleased Jazz Jackrabbit 3 recently, and I keep playing this track every now and again, it's such a banger. This whole subgenre from Epic Games' early efforts (and stuff those composers did for other companies) is really cool, I with there more games beyond the Unreals and Deus Ex with that style. This track from Unreal 2 is another great one

The cut Downtown theme from Vampire: the Masquerade - Bloodlines, it's just such a vibe

Fertile Rondo from Bayonetta 3 is also just chefs-kiss, great 5th Element vibes

Brain Freeze from Yuri's Revenge, I miss the "just stick some old movie/TV quotes in" era of electronic music

This track from Descent (this particular recording off a Roland SC-55, I'm pretty sure I originally found it on youtube but it seems like that upload may have been taken down, and a lot of the other ones I could find don't sound as good)

The whole Neotokyo soundtrack really, just an absolute masterpiece composed for a free mod for some reason. Some standouts: Beacon, Imbrium, Tachi, I just absolutely love the combination of more electronic sounds with strings and piano in a lot of these.

On the more ambient side of things, STALKER has some great ones, Call of Pripyat especially, like the Pripyat theme

I listen to a lot of game soundtracks at work. Atm, this song is stuck in my head because so many YouTubers/streamers play it: Steam Gardens - Super Mario Odyssey
