The Adventures of Batman & Robin--Gotham by Night

[@lehiboo]

Music with a story. Not simply a stupid loop. The work on the overall soundtrack is massive.

[@dieglhix]

check out subterrania and red zone OST (also for megadrive (genesis)), same composer and style (jesper kyd)

[@juanjbrieva5168]

You're 100% right. This game's OST is probably the best music I heard from Genesis games. Catchy, dark, and not a simple loop as you perfectly stated

[@knightshousegames]

0:51 where I would take my first death almost without fail as a kid. I thought the game had dynamic music forever until I played it as an adult. This man had foresight

[@GFunk4YoTrunk88]

Jepser Kyd is a beast on those synths and drum machines.

[@Suzukisenpai]

A pure 4OP FM-synthesis only. No samples at all. I tried to recreate same sounds using the Dexed and VOPM VSTis.

[@gaviaodafiel1001]

Music in this game was far ahead of its time, a excellent music with a amazing game. This Batman is a classic in my opinion.

[@heysiri7767]

Facts

[@Sedlan18]

This is why I love the genesis, while the SNES music was more cinematic oriented, the Genesis was like the heavy metal of game music.

[@adan-codes]

Well said sir! Sega just does BASS and drums better.

[@Seiko180]

the same argument from James Rolfe lol

[@spacesheep6547]

It fits with batman so fking well

[@Vectormantudeoz]

@@Seiko180 What In a video or Something??

[@Gage_Brumley]

@@Seiko180I thought James preferred the Super Nintendo music. Either way he was really biased towards the SNES in that video

[@inthefade]

The composer actually understood how to use FM synthesis.

[@staple72]

Because its Jesper Kyd

[@fernandosepulveda7297]

Dude jesper kid is an actual legend! He also worked on red zone and hit man 2

[@chinossynthesizer705]

Fm synthesis is tough. jesper kyd had to make a lot of patches and experiment alot.

[@Suzukisenpai]

@@fernandosepulveda7297 His first game soundtrack on a MegaDrive/Genesis was a fantastic Sub-Terrania (by Zyrinx, 1993)

[@DrLove0378]

@@SuzukisenpaiThat game is often slept on. The way I understand it, Zyrinx found themselves unable to get a development kit from Sega, so they built the game from the ground up on a Commodore Amiga. They did a great job!

[@SlashBeetlejuice]

One of my favorite video game soundtracks of all time!

[@alopexau]

This is some legit electro-industrial, borderline aggrotech stuff right here, not at all what I would ever have expected in a Batman game, but I'm sure glad it is.

[@KevykevHID]

This soundtrack is overdeveloped - IN A GOOD WAY. Progressive!

[@daveyfgn]

this song gave me a beef attack!!!!!!

[@blackh3art19]

The first minute of this is just so hype

[@Madjas00]

This song has so much heart and feeling in it. It made playing the game feel like so much more than just a side scroller action game.

[@17ScionFlames]

If this is what Batman hears in his head no wander he so badass lol

[@deadspace4755]

Whatever game had Jesper Kyd in it, l believe his works make any game feel alive.

[@PhantosTheHedgehog]

[@Madjas00]

Hold my beer and hold it tight. It's about to get real.

[@madson-web]

[@PsychOut1]

Jesper Kyd also did those soundtracks with his custom driver.That's why they have a similar sound.

[@realbasherverse]

@@evildevice yeah I doubt there was any custom drivers, he probably had his own program to create the soundtracks on.

I remember how hard this game was playing alone. I always needed my uncles help to actually make any progress. Great times.

[@Steverogers-s8k]

Is not a loop. Very impresive for a 90's game. 🥰

[@aliencatcrew3336]

This music is probably the best video game music in the whole 90s decade. This and streets of rage 2. That would be nice if we can have a version of these old games where we have ost choices

[@ImperatorGrausam]

Jesper Kyd is a true maestro. Just wow; industrial music on the Genesis.

[@DevilHunter-r8h]

The entire soundtrack of this game was way ahead of its time. I remember being blown away during my first playthrough back in 1996.

[@jerodmcallister1974]

I used to think Glover songs had long loops. Averaging 3-5 minutes then I hear this game. It's crazy this OST eluded my attention for this long!

[@tavanijorge2175]

Stage 1 : *HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME*

[@robertlombardo8437]

That was what I loved about this track and the stage that accompanied it. It perfectly encapsulated, in my opinion, just what it was like to be Batman fighting the Joker. There's been a breakout at Arkham and the Joker's thugs are out in force. He's celebrating his birthday by robbing the Gotham City Bank and lighting all the surrounding blocks on fire. It's up to Batman to fight them all off and save Gotham City.

[@Soddarkryder]

4:24 the first recorded time in history someone manages to use **falling pipes** as an instrument. It's a joke, this is one of my favorite VGM, especially considering the usage of the genesis sound chip.

[@mustangmckraken1150]

I really like the soundtrack for this game, but saying that it's the most impressive is a toss-up at best. Contra Hard Corps has a kick ass soundtrack, as well as Gunstar Heroes. I still love when people try and claim that the Genesis didn't have as good a sound chip as the Super Nintendo/Famicon. Lots of companies didn't use it to its full potential, not a single game on the SNES library that I like the music to as much as I do this or The Hard Corps.

[@xOmniCloudx]

Mustang McKraken Streets of Rage 2. All that needs to be said.

[@mustangmckraken1150]

Meh, idk. I liked it, yeah, but it sounded mediocre imo when compared to the other games on the platform. Might be my personal taste, but from a technical standpoint the soundtrack for Hard Corps is much more dynamic and fast-paced.

[@LeeONardo]

+Mustang McKraken Streets of Rage 2 - SOR super mix. My single favourite piece of game music of all time. SOR2 was literal perfection. Not gonna say your choice is bad by any means (hard corps is a GREAT game, along with of course this games too) but SOR2 was just something else lol I also agree with you about the SNES music. I always found that the music was weaker and/or more "wimpy" than the harder/stronger/harsher sound of the Megadrive. "The Escape" from Aladdin is a perfect example to me of how the Megadrive sound just makes a track work over SNES/PC sounds.

[@OX1994AU]

Mustang McKraken I hate to say this but i never liked contra hard corps music this soundtrack LITERALLY blows that ost out of the water by a thousand nukes.

[@troywright359]

There are many great tunes over the SNES compared to SEGA, take a listen to lawnmower man for snes for example. BUT Streets of Rage 3 OST is better than both SOR2 and LM.
