Good God, so many great tracks I've never heard (because I didn't play the games)!

So many posts - and no Super Meat Boy. The soundtrack is excellent, and really draws influence from older games.
As I have to choose one I'd go for (

Heh, that's classic Danny Baranowsky. He's been a presence in the VG remix scene for years. One of the sillier things he's done is morph a couple of classic Castlevania themes into (

dema's La La Land 5 link reminds of me of another surreal 'punk' video game: Space Funeral. And (

First track that comes to mind is the redbook track 23 from Mechwarrior 2
I didn't know it had a name but apparently youtube calls it Wolf Trial 1

I remember it was the 3rd mission in the Wolf campaign, and the first time you were rampaging around in a city with overwhelming odds. Been awhile since I crawled into a Summoner....

Ok, I'll play.
(
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9cznwHK0Ok) Turrican theme for the Amiga 500. I know that Turrican 2 is has already been mentioned but I think this the better theme (and game!). I just love the build up and I heard this in shop before I had my A500.
I suppose all my retro game music is from the Amiga and Atari ST. With that in mind...

Another from Turrican 2 - (

Also someone mentioned Morrowind - that's still my favourite rendition of the Elder Scrolls theme.

Oh yes this very much.

racing classics.
Though I wish they had incorporated the Amiga disk loading noises in the video, that intro is not the same without them.

Nice ones. That Cannon Fodder track! :thumb:
And the music was the best thing about Lost Patrol. The only good thing in fact. Well, the idea was good.

Obscure Polish Amiga stuff tiem:
(
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2W3Lai4-c8) Kajko i Kokosz, bitches. I still have the original boxed game for the Amiga. Pity there's only music during the intro and outro, and that it's basically the only good thing about the game, but hey - nostalgia.

http://www.modules.pl/index.php?id=modules&pid=151) Here are the downloads for the intro theme and the two endings (also excellent, like most things by XTD). Winamp needs a small plugin to play .mod and .xm files, dunno about other players.
