~*NOTE*~ ShortFuse is to get the full rip of the SSBB soundtrack. I hope to host it here once it does. Of course, I will keep the composer samples. I like to thank ShortFuse and PJGasca for helps and everyone else for their support.

Thank you SOOO much Chidosengan for gathering this all together. I've been using this thread for a while to help with my FAQ topic on GameFAQs. Keep it up!

Dude, the Trainer Battle theme from Diamond and Pearl should totally be a song for Pokemon Stadium 2! :-P

Oh, and I hope that there's at least a chance to use your own music from an SD card...that would be so friggin awesome.

Sound test confirmed for SSBB = SSBB gets a 10/10. <_< <_<

Anywho, this alleviates my fear of a lack a Yoshi's Island music but...this sort of mass song overload could take away from what chances Ridley's theme added to him. :/

Also, I remember someone, I think it was in the Dojo Update Thread awhile back, said they went to a couple of the Musician's blogs where they said that they were doing 2-3 songs. I think it was GenG that found it.

Subscribiiiiing.

Also, to add some content, I would love to hear the "you're approaching Victory Road!" song from Gold and Silver of Pokemon being remixed. Victory Road is a common element of all (?) Pokemon games and should definitely be included as a stage, in my opinion. This isn't exactly Victory Road itself, but it's the most memorable related song I recall: http://gh.ffshrine.org/song/3256/4

Another song I consider one of the best from the Pokemon series would be the one played during your first battle with your rival in Ruby/Sapphire.
http://gh.ffshrine.org/song/428/65 Linky!
Lots of potential for remixing, I think.


Oh yeah.
Not to mention the whole customizability. Is that a word?
I mean, think of it. If you can set the likeliness of music like this...

A random-explosions-switch seems all but guaranteed.

I believe the inclusion of the "my music" feature is going to make brawl a mile stone and set the standard for videogame music. I am impressed that they will have at least 4 different songs for each stage, and use all the famous composers on board for this game to recreate the classic songs and give them a modern edge.

Anyway, i really want to c the king dodongo(zelda:oot) boss fight music and a new version of the main theme song for fire emblem in this game

Has any one noticed that the 'Composition Supervisor' for the Main theme is Nobuo Uematsu? I'm not trying to get any Cloud fanboys exited, but I did find it odd that he wasn't mentioned in the original list of composers.

He was mentioned on the preview site before the blog started up and was probably omitted from the Musicians list because it was such common knowledge.

Holy heartless! Yoko Shimomura? I pray there are third party guest songs in this game.

i actually noticed this, and i think there were a few other composers that weren't included in the list too. there may be over 40 or 50 composers, considering the amount of music in the game!

As a music lover I must say I'm liking how Brawl's music is coming along. The My Music update made this week worthwhile, even if we didn't get a new character.

Brawl is going to be EPIC! Not just for story and gameplay, but for it's HUGE variety of music! I'm so excited!

No, it does not mean anything. They're their for their talent, not to represent a game they have worked on.
That's much more likely. But still, I would love to play smash bros with "Night of Fate," "The 13th Struggle," or "Scherzo Di Notte" playing.

This is the best music update so far.
Not only because it came with two others.
But wow...
It's... beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.

I demand a version masterfully increased in length!

I'm really hoping they add the song from metroid prime 3... when you turn on the game.. its so epic sounding.

@ the people who are saying MGS sounds like PotC: MGS sounds completely original like any other MGS game out.. All that its added is a Violin. (I really hate when people say that)

Don't be insulted when someone says, "all they added was a violin." Violins are epic!

who else will be insulted if Brawl 's music doesn't receive a 10 on every site that gives it a number?

A couple of questions of my own: will the music (hopefully) continue on longer than the samples we've been given?

Also, have these MP3s been done using a small live orchestra or a nice computer program?
