What is your favorite shmup music?

[Furry Fox Jet Pilot]

In this track from Raiden Fighters Jet, you can hear some sort of radio transmissions at 0:30 and 1:50; I wonder what they're saying.

Over 11 pages of suggestions and not even an honorable mention of some of Dux's tracks? (Well, lets face it - there are a lot of good STG tracks.)

Stage 4, Purple Spaces
Stage 1, Entrance to Trance

Maybe they are too upbeat/laid-back though there is a definite earworm quality to them.

Too bad this one doesn't appear in the actual game but is only found on the OST:
Score the Darkness

One can only hope the DUX1.5 release has good music. From the 2 tracks heard in the show that played mostly REDUX stuff, it sounded nice.

vimana has an amazing soundtrack.

[Furry Fox Jet Pilot]

Jets 'n' Guns has a great soundtrack
I especially love the shop music.

I came across this very interesting video. This may not be an actual game, but it has striking similarities to Raiden. The best song on here is "Moon Over the Remains." It starts at 10:31 and ends at 14:15. The songs that follow are also pretty good. Also, I believe song #13 is referring to Raiden DX New Release Stage 2 (at least I think that's the kanji for Raiden). Song #14 could be referring to Raiden II Stage 1, and the last song refers to Raiden II also, but I don't know what the kanji after that says.

Is there any way I can upload some music files here from my computer so people can hear them? Because I know you can't find them on youtube.

No, that's not possible. Have you tried making your own Youtube account?

Actually, I do in fact have one, but I once tried uploading a video and it said it would take 13 hours But I doubt the songs would take much time.

exceed 3rd - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPlpJzuwHY0

Actually, pretty much all of Saitama Saisyu Heiki's music is good.

[SuperSoaker360]

Ah, eXceed 3rd. I personally loved Maid To Order. It gives off a neat little Castlevania vibe.

Been playing a lot of Gundemonium Recollection on Steam so the soundtrack is still pretty fresh on my mind, particularly the DM Ashura arranged soundtrack version.

Storm Raiders
Time for a Super Train Robbery!

Lord of Power Nine
That ominously thumping bass really means you're in for it!

And while we're on the topic of thumping bass, who doesn't love the musical synchrony of ∀kashicverse?

∀kashicverse Stage 5 boss
***Contains spoilers for those who want to experience the trip for themselves

[Reiko]

Yeah, I can sorta notice that now that you mention it actually, hadn't really thought of it before. I do like the entire game soundtrack to be honest.

I also bought the Gundemonium collection in this current steam sale, since it was I think the only shoot em up on steam I didn't have already, and been playing a bit as well. I definitely like the music in those games too.

[Furry Fox Jet Pilot]

Operation Ragnarok remix powered by Sampling Masters
Manabu Namikli by Shinji Hosoe and Ayako Saso. Pure Rave awesomness.

[Eaglet]

Speaking of Hosoe:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvyC1JTO3mU

The best shmup fusion song evar.

[ProcoTaito]

I was rocking out on that crazy gabber track that Shinji Hosoe did on the Black Label version of Ibara.
The song that plays when your selecting a ship. You guys know the one I'm talking about?

[KAI]

You should hear something from the overdrive hell series

[ProcoTaito]

You should hear something from the overdrive hell series

Oh hell YES! This style of music defines my personal view of Shinji Hosoe.
It's that crazy gabber "Ridge Racer" style music I love so much!

Hrm, much respect for this, but I actually prefer Ayako Saso's original cut on Manabi Namiki Works: Operation Ragnarok, entitled Shootaholic [Я-ave mix].

Amazingly, it appears to be non-existent on Youtube, but it is on my itunes, so therefore it exists, and it's pretty fucking awesome.

Props for the chick pic too, assuming they are a bunch of women, and not men in disguise KAI? :disapproving-in-a-humorous-way-stare:

[AssanCHOP]

Favorite shmuptunes?

Hmmm...

I always liked the music on the first levels of Area 88 and 1943...
Currently I'm in LOVE with Doki Doki In The Sky from MMP...

[chempop]

Iridion II for GBA, my god this track is so good!

[SuperSoaker360]

Back with more eXceed 3rd: Jade Penetrate - Black Package OST. I've always loved the soundtrack for this game.

F|Y UP
Progressive-rock at its finest! (Is F|Y UP supposed to mean "Fuck You Up"?)

Monolith
A really heavy and dark yet somewhat motivating track in the game, fitting for the confrontation with the Undead Cardinal Lord Remedy in Hyperborieos. Loving these guitars!

[Furry Fox Jet Pilot]

Ketsui- Doomsday (Select) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cd1cpzA1gpk
I love this track, it has that feel of final desperation that you feel knowing it's your final mission, and you're not coming back alive.

Ketsui- Interception (Stage 1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ta5ecKMS2Xw
I love this track also, especially 1:07-1:39 and 2:42-3:35; those moments give a bleak, desolate feel to the World War III setting.

Ketsui- Canal Fleet (Stage 3) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEu6vhRItT8
I love the vibes this song has, almost makes me want to dance!

Ketsui- No Remorse (True Last Boss) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGqNLiZnOjA
This has to be one of the most intense, epic TLB themes I have ever heard. It just gets your heart pumping knowing death is staring you in the face. Doom is probably the most brutal boss I've come across in a game, although the only way I can ever face him is by credit feeding through Trap15's Ketsui Arrange LOL

Super Raiden- Gallantry http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pn32sI7GKsg
This version of Gallantry is so badass!

Super Raiden- Rough and Tumble http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7b4ZtO8BIo
I love the sound that kicks in at 0:56-1:18 and 2:02-2:24 and the guitar at 2:25-2:47 is just epic.

This is the song that pops into my head whenever a Cave TLB is mentioned, period.
Also, I need to steal samples from the ROMs, there's a pretty nice bass sample and the string-y instrument is nice...
