SimCity 2000 - Sega Saturn Soundtrack

[@harrisonelfrink5676]

The most obscure SC2K port has the best version of the soundtrack.

[@JSMCPN]

Imagine having to re-tweak these tracks over and over for a dozen different chips/platforms.

[@monad_tcp]

@@JSMCPN sounds like fun

[@joshuadexter1499]

@@monad_tcp Maybe less fun if you're on a tight deadline. Maybe. (I mean, maybe they weren't on a tight deadline, but if you had to guess...)

[@BrothaKyo]

I remember that if you pop in the disc in a normal disc player, there is an extended version of the Intro song. That was my jam!!

[@dreammfyre]

Omg. This is the best version. Didn’t even knew it existed.

[@SnailSnail622]

This isn't the version I grew up with, but oh my goodness, it makes me just as happy if not a little more. This is awesome. 😄

[@anubusx]

We are all living in Sim City.

[@skoubidou00]

Om I didn't know the sega saturn version of the ost was so different ! This is so cool ! Thanks for sharing.

[@paradoxmo]

That siren with Doppler effect is a really nice touch at 4:17

[@daviddimalanta259]

that intro in Sega Saturn version is badass! Also, "Dancing Megapolis" is my most favorite game soundtrack in Sim City 2000. It's so relaxing

[@ChrisCa1601]

1:40 This has always been my favorite tune in the series.

[@jtblcksheep3376]

When I was a kid, I was kinda creeped out by that “Skyscrapers” song. Not only is it an overall dark track, but it has that weird bird cry sound. I always thought that sound was the alien monster robot approaching the city, waiting to strike.

[@tomcoster7034]

6:00 that tune... My god im about to tear up 😢

[@nthgth]

This is awesome. I expected it to be the same as the PS1 tunes but I'm pleasantly surprised!

[@supercap3000]

Saturn will always be better than ps1

[@olidroide]

Thanks VengefulChip

[@VengefulChip]

You're welcome, glad you enjoyed it :D

[@FeelingShred]

"Growing Up Town" drum pattern is so "unconventional" that I used to think something was wrong with my version of the game on PC, it sounded like someone's first attempt at composing MIDI without knowing the tools, mashing the keys randomly XDD LOL

[@anthonymenardmoquin9753]

Thanks bro for this great tube ! The best!

[@GiganticPyro]

15:24 Powerful vibes! ❤

[@raccoonrave6407]

Key to success is best on the PS1 imo. Its iconic. Everything else sounds amazing on the saturn

[@maquinarama1689]

Sounds like the PlayStation version, but, for some reason, the saturn soundtrack sounds more "clean". The playstation version seems to use reverb, or something like that.

[@GiganticPyro]

16:21 Could be a love music! ❤

[@Raycloud]

Never knew this version existed

[@Officialchristophermorris]

Lol Me neither, SimCity 2000 was almost in every Platform during those Days xD

[@edu_moonwalker]

Skyscrapers will always sounds like Scarborough Fair

[@alexl6287]

These are all scsp tracks. There's a cd audio intro remix on the disc though.

[@FireVasilisk]

Thank you mate

[@lordreven2751]

so good

[@jorgegutierrez6998]

my favorite 07:02

[@junglerider165]

Key of Success and Work Work Work sounds almost the same as PSX version

[@asasnat342]

could you please do an playlist version of the soundtrack? (you know, a playlist with all videos with the game music.)

[@mariomr1000]

Well the Saturn could run 2d games better than the PlayStation so no surprise it sounds more clean

[@synthnation9857]

does anyone know other songs or tracks that has similar synth vibe like this? I really love synth soundtrack and would love to hear more of it :)

[@WayOutGaming]

The Gran Turismo games have a pretty similar vibe to them. A lot of lounge Jazz, often mixed with synth. Cities Skylines also some synth based radio stations that are listenable here on KZbin.

[@synthnation9857]

@@WayOutGaming thanks man :)

[@WayOutGaming]

@@synthnation9857 no problem! I might also recommend checking out the synthwave and retrowave creators here on KZbin. There's a ton of synthwave remixes, as well as a lot of original albums. Hotline Sehwani is a great starting point if you like Sega and Nintendo related soundtracks.

[@synthnation9857]

@@WayOutGaming I've been a fan of synthwave and retrowave for a long time man. I heard of Overdrive by Lazerhawk when I was a damn kid, then get to known more of these synth related music and genre, and also the reason why I love synth music since then :)

The intro track is exclusive to this version?

[@AndrosynthNuclear]

Soundfont?

[@WestleyWolf]

this is MIDI Recorded onto CD-Audio. i know its a strange way it was done...i'm guessing just to sound like the PC version. but me personally my favorite versions of the music is on either PC or PS1.

[@logoncal3001]

+Westley West (Wizard) The PS1 could have been the best port ever, since it's superior on everything except the one main factor of sim city: Control. Using the cursor on a ps1 controller is NOT FUN

[@WestleyWolf]

Logoncal that version has PlayStation Mouse support.

[@logoncal3001]

Westley West Are you serious?! I played the PS1 port before the DOS and Windows version and for 5 years i played that port without knowing that you can have a mouse. So in short, the PS1 version is great. Not perfect, the UI is terrible and there's no african swallow speed (the cheetah speed is slower than the one in the DOS)

[@some-online-dude]

The Saturn version had mouse support as well iirc.

[@nealon2005]

Wow this version is liquid ass compared to the PC version.

[@JaimeValladares00]

It isn't, but go ahead & speak your shallow mindset out
