Note: I know one of you sent me this soundtrack and I want to credit you, but I sadly can't remember which one of you it was! So if you are reading this, please let me know :)
This is MUCH better quality as it is ripped from the legit soundtrack, instead of me just making video of the game. Again, in my opinion, one of the best overall soundtracks from a game, even though most of us reading this played the Super Nintendo version. Remember this is the ORIGINAL game! There are some tracks unique to this version, although most you already know, they just sound better IMO with this sound chip.
If you want to watch me play this game and/or view my writeup on how to make it work with an emulator and play it YOURSELF...

Highlights: "Premonition", "Armed and Ready", "Castle Mark Philips", "Valley", "Castle Siegfried", "Desperate Dreams", "Run to the Hill of the Phantom", "Reach for the Sky", "When Death Call", "Moonchild", and my personal favorite: "Master of Water". Can I just say listen to all of it? :)
These composers worked very hard to create some AWESOME music at a time when nobody really cared that much about what game music sounded like. It's difficult to find much info about the composers, but they go by "Zoom Reversible Band" (Hideki Suzuki, Hideyuki Shimono), and the arrangements were done by Masami Sakaide.
You can also hear the SNES version here:

If you play guitar, check out what we have tabbed on Gametabs. I did most of them so far and I'll keep working on getting more done. These are based on the SNES version but as far as I can tell both OSTs are in the same key.

Ah this game brings back so many old memories. I believe I got it in the Summer of 1993. I bought Street Fighter II Turbo Hyper Fighting with my summer job money and traded in my mint boxed copy of Street Fighter II to a stall at the "Fabulous Flea Market" for this game lol. I remember being attracted by the awesome box art. The booth vendor was busy copying SNES games with a UFO and rushed me to decide on buying it (I only got to try it for like 2 minutes).My cousin came over the following day and we were stuck at that stupid Lion boss. I played through and beat it once. I enjoyed it but then soon used it as trade fodder for my copy of Super Metroid, which I still have to this day.

There are some cool videos on here featuring it, like someone took apart a machine and then there are some of people actually playing them...you can still get them from Japan but they're expensive as hell and not always guaranteed to work.

@@crcyclone "Any other soundtracks you'd recommend?" Ive often called the Sega Genesis a poor mans X68000. Sega watered down the specs of a X68000 to make it more affordable for consumers. Anyways, if theres games that were on the Genesis and the X68000, thats what Id recommend. The added 2 voices make that much of a difference. I know Ive listened to all versions of Arcus Odyssey, and yes the X68000 is the best over the Genesis and the SNES.

There's no MIDI playback in Lagoon, or in any ZOOM games on the X68000. It only used the X68000's internal sound chip. Still some of the best music in any video game in my opinion. I actually own the official CD. (along with the North American and Japanese Super Nintendo/Super Famicom games complete in box, and the X68000 version) I grew up with this game, and it's cool to see more people enjoy something about it.

@aaronharrellmusic 7 жыл бұрын

The X68000 itself had a lot of games that you could play the MIDI soundtrack (which most games supported, and even had two or three separate arrangements for the occasion). What you'd do is hook up a MIDI board to the back, plug it in to a Modulator, like an SC-55 or MT-32 (two different types of modulators that you could choose specific arrangements based on which one you had). If you didn't have any of the MIDI stuff, the X68000's internal sound was also decent, so you didn't necessarily need MIDI sound to play a game. Like I mentioned in the above comment, I own all of the ZOOM games for the X68000 and none of them supported MIDI.

I only recently found out the awful SNES game was a diminished port of an original for a Japanese computer system and that apparently the original game was far easier / better to play and more enjoyable. I vividly remember my brother and I renting this game for the SNES, dying a lot and feeling like we wasted a Blockbuster rental on a crappy game.
