Yes so many, standouts being Turrican 2, Shadow of the Beast, Ghouls n Ghosts, etc
I do love The Lost Patrol soundtrack, the music so fits in with the game - maybe one of the best example of this there is (imho) |

Deflektor is indeed a classic, overlander have mixed feelings: it does represent the situation very well but is a bit monotonous (is the constant use of same bassline and rythm, i learned the some break are needed once in a while) - but then even the game is monotononus...

Hello, It´s not the best, but I don´t know why I like a lot the tune of Dogs of War (Elite, 1989), by David Whittaker.
[ Show youtube player ] Edit: I've been listening to the same song for 10 minutes while surfing the net. It´s the selection screen of the Commander of the game called Wreckers. nothing of interest, but it's mesmerizing while I surf the net. Last edited by The Brave Ant; 07 November 2021 at 22:17. |

If you would wake me up in the middle of the night and immediately demand a spontanous answer from me (by the way, please don't) on what the best Amiga music is, I have no doubt that my answer would be the soundtrack of Turrican 2.
It's to me not only one of the best Amiga game soundtracks, but one of the best video game soundtracks in general, across all systems and decades. It's Chris Hülsbeck's Magnum Opus in a portfolio filled with a lot of fantastic music. That being said, there is of course a lot of excellent music to be found on the Amiga. Entire soundtracks I love: • The Secret of Monkey Island (the entire soundtrack, including the in my opinion underappreciated forest theme) • The Secret of Monkey Island 2 • Nicky Boum • Pinball Dreams • Pinball Fantasies • Lemmings • Cannon Fodder (not only the theme, but Jon Hare's "Narcissus" is just hauntingly great) • Wing Commander • Wolfchild • The Chaos Engine • Dynablaster • The Great Giana Sisters • Blood Money • Dreamweb • Jumping Jack'Son • Full Contact • Elvira Mistress of the Dark (the level-specific themes are genuinely eerie to this day) • P.P. Hammer and his Pneumatic Weapon (this soundtrack is in my opinion criminally overlooked/underappreciated) And here are some single stand-out tracks of soundtracks I love: • Flashback's intro music + both options screen music tracks are all very powerful • Mad TV's smooth track that is being played while walking around in the building (and including it's sped-up variant) • Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge 2's Theme (over the years I heard many stories of people recording it on tape back then) • God's Theme • Logical's Theme • Apprentice's Theme and that other cute song • Chuck Rock's Theme • Speedball 2's Theme • It Came from the Desert's map track still chills me to the bone • Castle Master's theme • Turrican's "Techno Dungeon" and "Tower of Morgul" • Agony's Theme + loading screen's track ... and all the other great soundtracks and single tracks I enjoy but didn't list. |
