The PC Engine's best BGM?!

A lack of effort can be greater than too much effort .

From a straight up bonafide musical snob:

Runnin' in the Dark - DE2.  There really isn't a better song made for a video game, ever.  It's a proven, undeniable, unfallable truth.  Heavy on the ride symbol, choc full o' power chords, one finger bass, full synth, and I don't even like metal.

I heard Starfleet is doing a reunion album and this is track one.

Yes, for example when comparing a low-effort Hudson-made game to a high-effort Accolade-made game... Hudson will most certainly win.

Is that one of the re-arrangements of a Dungeon Explorer 1 track? Where in the game do you hear it?

I haven't played the game in a decade (but it's sitting on my book shelf) but I rock out to it on my Hudson 93 Music CD often.

I can think of thee different SCD tracks from the top of my head, but dont know the track numbers or names...
Hucard wise, im currently digging the 3rd stage music from Final Soldier.

I thought our posts were mainly referring to Telenet games? You don't need to spend a whole crap load of effort and time making a good song. The synthy songs in a lot of Telenet games are just simple and catchy, all you need for a good song and more especially for a video game.

Nice stevek666. Finally someone who appreciates this game!

I recommend the album Magical Trick Society: Dragon Spirit - Lead into Genesis, it is a dojin album with Dragon Spirit remixes. It's pretty poor, but I love the remix of Paleozoic Era (despite it being too rock-ish for my taste).

I will upload it along with the songs you mentioned here. Why? Because they need listenin'.

Dark Castle - Boss

Thanks for sharing those tracks . It is fun to hear different versions, even though the HuCard tunes rock even harder! You and sunteam_paul must have missed the bashing that Dragon Spirit's soundtrack took not too long ago -- I was the only one to defend its honor.

I haven't really heard any Dragon Spirit remixes, so I should check them out.

The Ryo Yomenitsu arrangements of Dragon Saber are pretty good.  It's like Ys meets Dragon Spirit if you can imagine something so incredibly CrAzY!
