BRA★BRA FINAL FANTASY VII BRASS de BRAVO with Siena Wind Orchestra
These brass albums are pretty interesting. This one has a very cool medley of the Shinra themes and when the Weapons attack. Best track is Rufus' Welcome March.

All very nice! The last one in particular was the kind of slow intensity I was looking for!

Jesus, Durandal, that's like a full playlist of exactly the kind of music Sumez would absolutely love, and I've probably only heard (or paid attention to) about half of them before. Did you pull them all out from your head, or did you save an archive of that stuff somewhere?

Man, I've played the crap out of Ghosts n Goblins, and never noticed how awesomely underrated the stage 3/4 music is! (it's always been in a noise arcade)

Super Mario Odyssey Original Soundtrack
Well, shit! This one was well put together. I don't think it tops the soundtrack for Super Mario 3D World, but it's still great fun to listen to.

Shamefully late (haven't been around much the last fortnight), and Durandal nailed it, but I'd also mention the rumbling (yet subtly optimistic) Large Green Meadow from Master of Monsters (MD). Damn near Bad Omen levels of staggering heavy. Although not technically composed by Sakimoto/Iwata, you'd be forgiven for thinking it was! Quoting Dustin from the comments:

Also, one of the most subtly menacing tracks from Silent Hill's OST, "All." Blast the fucker loud, and don't you be scurred!

^^^Master of Monsters ost is killer. Matsuo is pretty great in general, I even love some of his anime soundtrack stuff.

Also my personal pick for most disturbing SH1 track is "Never Again"

-

Also new recommendation time! Need some inspiration for the trpg situation I'm in. Battle music with operatic female vocals. Stuff like this, this, this, etc. hit me up if you got any you'd like to share <3

Two working class dudes, one black one white, just baked a tray of ten cookies together.

An oligarch walks in and grabs nine cookies for himself.

Then he says to the white dude "Watch out for that black dude, he wants a piece of your cookie!"

Good picks! I'd say the NieR one fits the atmosphere of the situation best, due to its mournful tone. Fortress of Philosophy is great too, a bit too high flying outside of the vocals, but their sweetness captures the more hopeful side of the emotions at work in the battle.

Good stuff!

That's an incredibly expanded version of the Mario Paint composer :P You'd never be able to make something like that in Mario Paint.

Terminator 2: The Arcade Game (Mega Drive version)

Better than the original arcade version's BGM. Maybe Matt Furniss' best work of all. Anyone who says the MD cannot do good BGM needs to listen to this.

Excellent stuff! Sound quality's on par with the usual Japanese standouts from Sega, Tecno Soft, Konami etc. The crisp drum sound facilitates super-aggressive fills, and the lead voices are dominatingly keen without a hint of clang. Composition is no slouch either - agile and punchy with lots of hooks, nicely counterbalancing the dark overtone.

Left it running in the background while gaming elsewhere, had to come and post once it hit Mission 5's mecha-funk groove and richly sustained evil refrain. Mission 4's spiralling techno-oriental lead could've come straight from The Super Shinobi II... Mission 3 is a like a slower, unhurriedly menacing Trap Boogie. Actually much of the OST has that particular funk/menace vibe - TSSII fans should definitely give it a listen. Boss track is a winningly catchy threatener.

The MD's stash of killer Japan-produced music is well-known in this thread and related ones like stryc9's - always good to get a reminder Western devs could make it sing too. :smile:

Doh! Double shamefully late. No idea tbh - I just know him as that dude that uploads SHAWEET hardware rips of MD music.

Action/platformer Youkai Club (FC) is obscure for good reason - it is bland as fuuuck. However, it has some decent tunes, and more importantly - it inspired this ABSOLUTE MOTHERFUCKING BELTER of a VRC6 fan arrangement. Image Would love to hear this rocking a decent game.

I've been jamming a lot of the soundtracks on DUSTINODELLOFFICIAL YT channel lately, but not this one yet. "Large Green Meadow" is quite ominous - good stuff.
