North & South...

Thats an interesting choice.. Its very funny music for sure. hehe

I love the menu music, the end of it is superb

or when you click on the photographers bottom!

Amegas is a classic of course, and we have to appreciate Karsten Obarski for initially making soundtracker!

Turrican 2, without doubts, is my fave music soundtrack. On ANY format! I specially like Level 1-2's tune, dunno why

And the spaceship levels' music too, it feels so "Gradius-ey"!

Other nominees:
- Stardust and Super Stardust
- Ghouls and Ghosts (crap game, cool Follin muzak)
- Body Blows and Body BlowsGalactic (Allister's pretty cool)
- Turrican 3, BC-Kid, Jim Power, and most any Hülsbeck TFMX tune

Benefactor had a pretty unusual but strangely likeable tune and what about those reactor bits in Uridium 2? And the racey Apidya music...

Three more that came to mind: IK+, Deflektor and Superfrog!

And yes, I recently made a very exact 8 channel XM remake of the Battle Squadron title tune by Ron Klaren. It can be found here:
