Won't really know until I start counting votes though.

I knew I was forgetting something! Updated my list to include music from Addams Family and Vortex on SNES, both of which have *incredible* soundtracks (Addams Family I legitimately forgot about, whereas with Vortex, I honestly had no idea it wasn't originally a Japanese game until earlier today).

Also threw in some Super Off-Road music, which I'd forgotten existed until someone else put a couple tracks from it on their list.

And shuffled my top five, as well, to make room for some of the new tracks (both Vortex and Addams Family have good enough music that they pretty much HAVE to be on there for me!).

It's more of a placeholder for now, this list will change before the end of the contest. Maybe.

I realized most of the video game music I'm listening to is of Japanese origin actually. After I filtered those out from my previous vote, I was left with less than 20 songs, wow. Now I'm trying to recall and figure out which games I have played had good music made by European or American composers.

Can't link videos while I'm at work, but I wanted to name a few songs from Tyrian (Correct me if the other guy whose name I can't remember did any of these).

"Tyrian, The Level" (Alexander Brandon)
"Gyges, Will You Please Help Me?" (Alexander Brandon)
"Deli Shop Quartet" (Alexander Brandon)
"Transon" (Alexander Brandon)

And one from Rise of the Triad :

"Goin' Down the Fast Way" (Don't know if it's Jackson or Prince)

KMFDM : THE ULTIMATE SOUND
AND A MESSAGE FROM SATAN IF YOU TURN IT AROUND

By the way, does anyone know if the artist behind MadWorld's soundtrack is American? I know it sounds like a stupid, even racist question, but from the artist's profile, he/they might be Japanese-American. Would that be allowed as Western Music?

Amazed to see so much love for Tyrian. You guys rock. Serious lack of Erana's Peace & Garden, though. Looks like I've got a lot of unique picks...which of course doesn't bode well for them making it onto the compilation.

Note: for the tracks from Amplitude, only original songs were selected.

Only 3 tracks per game are allowed.

(Which is a shame, because I'd vote for the entire VVVVVV soundtrack

)

*last ninja 2 mansion theme features part of Tangerine Dream's - Alchemy of the heart - www.youtube.com/watch?v=di0GU5R2dDU, about 1 minutes worth, judges will need to decide

The entire score has bits and pieces of Tangerine Dream in it from what I remember. I'd say it's suitably remixed/rearranged to be allowed, no?

Shadowrun, Morgue/3am on summer night, www.youtube.com/watch?v=ome6XI_KuIw&feature=related

Same track as "Walking the Shadows". Really wish I knew what the 'official' title was.

Notes:
-I'm not sure if What the Heck counts since it starts off with a piece of Night on Bald Mountain by Modest Mussorgsky.
-The intro to Another World (as well as the ending) are the only pieces of music not on the soundtrack of the game, so it's as is with sound effects and all.
