That nobody mentioned Transport Tycoon Deluxe is criminal. I recommend the live-action version recorded for the mobile release: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuJy9oCdUns

If you like prog metal and hard rock, I’ve yet to find a better soundtrack than Guilty Gear XX. The fan favorite is “Holy Orders (Be Just or Be Dead)”, but for my money, the best songs on the soundtrack are “Existence” and “Awe of She”.

First time I heard this was in a buddy’s car and it was bumpin’ hard. I asked him who the band was and was totally surprised when he told me it was from a video game. Very very solid stuff v all the way through

I’m a sucker for a cello. When I’m testing new audio equipment I put on Austin Wintory’s soundtrack to Journey. So, so beautiful.

Also love cello, and it’s why I keep hoping the long-rumored new version of Final Fantasy Tactics will surface soon. Even with a fifth console gen soundfont, Sakimoto’s strings are so good in that soundtrack.

Loop Hero

The Forest

Strafe

Kingdom: Classic

Donkey Kong Country, especially 2. From the original, I recommend Aquatic Ambience. But for DKC2, honestly let the OST play. There’s so many greats.

Stickerbush Symphony the GOAT. But yes, so many great picks in here.

That’s also my top pick!

Stellaris. Absolutely fantastic.

The Dead Cells soundtrack. Especially:

cRazi_man ,

You missed some great ones:

Promanade of the Condemned

Prison Rooftop

Formerly Known as Assassin

The Castle

Hand of the King

The while soundtrack is one banger after another. The two best are Clocktower and Hand of the King.

I prefer Sci-fi background noise so Surviving Mars is my favorite. Mass Effect is ok but I find it gets a little too cinematic and bombastic at times. FTL and Into The Breach, or really anything by Ben Prunty is good too

Overall, Surviving Mars might be my favorite work soundtrack. Assorted tracks from Stellaris plus the Age of Wonders and Civilization series are also good. Something about the soundtracks in 4X games and games like them always puts me in a productive mood while not making me emotional and thus distracted like RPG soundtracks can sometimes.

Since you like FF, I’d suggest looking into Uematsu’s other works as well, especially Lost Odyssey. For similar ones in the genre, there’s also Yasunori Mitsuda’s work in the Chrono and Xeno series.

Can’t go wrong with pretty much any pre-Skyward Sword Zelda. SS itself also has Ballad of the Goddess, which was good, but I can’t remember any other tunes from it or BOTW that aren’t just reprises of tracks from previous games.

Super Meat Boy - Ballad of the burning squirrel

Super Meat Boy - Forest Funk

Super Meat Boy - Betus Blues

The composer for Super Meat Boy has done lots of great tracks for Binding of Isaac and Crypt of the Necrodancer too (Danny Baranowsky)

Enter the Gungeon - Abbey or Die

Enter the Gungeon - Behold the Boss Eater

Enter the Gungeon - Boss Battle Beating

Metal Gear solid theme

Nine Sols - Collage

Hades soundtrack (all of it) + if you search for the composer (Darren Korb) then you’ll find loads more great soundtracks he’s done (notably for Bastion).

Hollow Knight soundtrack (all of it + the piano cover version)

Street Fighter 6 - Viator (theme for Ryu + there’s a real cool metal cover that is on YouTube by an indie metal band)

Wipeout HD soundtrack (all of it)

Super Hexagon (all 3 tracks)

Hotline Miami soundtrack

Lots of people have rightly mentioned FTL

Frank Kelpacki has done tons of great soundtracks across the whole Command and Conquer series and it’s worth searching through.

If you’re into chip tunes, then it is also worth checking out Streets of Rage 2 soundtrack.

In case you haven’t noticed, I’m really into video game instrumentals. If anyone else is interested, there’s a great podcast called Sound of Gaming by BBC radio 3 that is worth going through the back catalogue of episodes.
