Uridium 2 rip (missing tunes)

Hi everyone. I've been meaning to post about this for a while now (years, actually!). Somthing that's always bothered me about the current Uridium 2 music rip is that there are several tunes missing from it. This can be checked by watching the longplay on youtube:

Could the person who originally ripped this music have a stab at completing the rip? Or maybe someone else with the skills could have a go. It woud be nice to see this great soundtrack finally completed.

Ey up!
You very kindly loaned me your original copies of Uridium 2 several years ago to try and perform a complete rip for you. I didn't have much success, sorry.
IIRC, Don Adan has this in his 'to-do' list to investigate. But he does have a big list!
I haven't viewed the video clip yet, but Kyzer mentioned a while back that the music becomes corrupt when playing the game from start to finish, and could possibly explain why it doesn't sound like the complete soundtrack has been ripped.
BTW, at which point in the clip does the missing soundtrack play?
I'm useless at this game, so I'll be trying again with a trained version. I've also got a review version lurking somewhere which might have a slightly different soundtrack...

Here are the points in the longplay video where the missing tunes appear:
5:23 - core theme
6:32 - in-game theme
7:56 - in-game theme
10:26 - in-game theme
12:32 - core theme
13:34 - in-game theme
30:54 - core theme
31:58 - in-game theme
44:40 - in-game theme
1:00:23 - in-game theme
And here are some other reference points where they can be heard again:
17:54
20:49
28:39
34:12
46:46
55:24
1:04:17
1:08:05
1:23:27
There might also be a couple of tiny jingles missing too (such as when you lose all your lives). This will need double-checking though.
