This is a thread to discuss SNES music, to start I would like to say that Chrono Trigger and Megaman X have fly as hell tracks.

Mega Man X seriously has a mind-blowingly good soundtrack. There's hardly a single song in that game that I don't love.

Super Metroid and the DKC games (especially 2) have great music too.

i'm gonna take this opportunity to look up a bunch of non-staple snes games i don't know much about and see if their music was any cop

linked to keep number of youtubes on this page down

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iy3dEfqUsw today i learned that there is a planet in the battletech universe inexplicably named for a small dutch town, and that it's got a fairly groovy theme
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_yQrqaa2K0 ooo gently caress me i remember reading that 2 unlimited was going to license their music to a snes game but thought it didn't actually happen (also listen to the japanese original, it's good)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Bpx6Pmu6Z8 not bad for a furry game
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pj02FxuUlYU get to da choplifter !! haha just a little reference to the classic sly stallone film "universal soldier" there
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aw54oYSsi0Y i have never heard of this game and it's from titus at that, but this is surprisingly good imo

It's not mind-blowing or anything but Umihara Kawase had one of those overly happy poppy OSTs like Kirby and they're pretty catchy sometimes.

Doesn't mean the homeless dude banging sticks on PVC buckets can't sound good too.
