My mind landed on Stickerbush Symphony from Donkey Kong Country 2 and kinda settled there. David Wise is damn good at composing video game music.
Original music: probably everything Solar Fields did for Mirror’s Edge. Not original: No Rest for the Wicked is perfect for Borderlands. Hard choices though, there’s a lot of good shit out there.
Probably Coalescence from Risk of Rain 1
It has to one of these two for me, hard to pick: The Chersonese soundtrack from Outward or Fear Not Night from Guild Wars 2.
The Outward one hits especially hard while adventuring through Chersonese!
Missing You - Kingdom Hearts II
NieR: Automata - Weight of the World
This is at first so beautiful, and later on it just hits so hart. And listening to the other versions, japanese where the performer even cries, and chaos (a fantasy language) (video with spoilers, sadly), this is such a great piece of art. The perfect bittersweet song.
Danger from Secret of Mana / Seiken Densetsu 2. I love me some boss battle music!
Gotta say, nobody knows this game and rare are thoses who even played it, can it even be considered as a video game track, but i will say the first theme from Irisu Syndrome!
Max Payne 2: ”Late Goodbye” by Poets of the Fall.

https://youtu.be/lndBgOrTWxo Otherwise Stickerbush Symphony.
Red Alert Hell March
I’m partial to the original Dwarf Fortress music
A classic! I do also love Simon Swerwer’s work on the official steam DF OST
Hard to pick just 1, so here’s a list of ones I deem notable from a few different games:
- 14.3 Billion Years — Outer Wilds
- Undertale — Undertale
- City of Tears — Hollow Knight
- Under the Eye of Kibenya — Heaven’s Vault
- No publicly available version of this one; but the game and soundtrack are good, so they’re worth a buy
- Private Room — Five Nights at Freddy’s: Sister Location
- Tiny’s Theme — Mario Golf
- Cleopactra — Ms. Pac-Man Maze Madness
- Dive Into the Mellow — Sonic Adventure 2
- Fathomless Tomb — Deep Rock Galactic
- They Might As Well Be Dead — Risk of Rain 2
- xX_TF_CNS_FloatingBits_Mp3_Xx (Floating Bits) — The Finals
To me it’s always been the B version of the original Tetris. This and most of Megaman X
Dude! My most unpopular opinion has always been that b track of tetris was more of a banger than the version! I’ve received dozens of down votes over it!
Well many people can be wrong at the same time!
The Boomer Kuwanger theme is a banger. This might be my favorite version though.
Nice!
To Zanarkand just does something…
