While Mega Man games are nowhere to be seen, Japan's going all out with the music. Recently released are two back-to-back albums, rock and techno-flavored...which may grab the interest of this community. It has a lot of well known composers contributing, including Hitoshi Sakamoto.

Most of the tracks in the rock album are quite interpretive, steering away from the source a lot. I especially love what was done with the Splash Woman remix...now that's something I can see posted on OCR for example.

Here's the techno playlist. Not really digging it yet, but Wily's Stage from Mega Man 2 is pretty good.

Let's throw this one in for good measure. Released last year, I was thoroughly surprised by this album. It's called We Are Rockmen and has music spanning from the original MM games to the X series. Very, very good tracks. Listen to the Armored Armadillo take. EPIC. The reason why I'm mentioning this album is because they're releasing a follow-up in one month in honor of the 25th Anniversary.

Thoughts? Discuss! Also link your favorite tracks out of these albums. :)

I needed this. Thank you. Oh man. Thank you.

Edit: If this is from Capcom - apology accepted. The neighbors are going to hate me.

I just wish they could releases this stuff overseas. Digital downloads. iTunes. Anything. Would definitely buy them. It would make a good way to celebrate the 25th Anniversary if they bundle these albums under one release or something.

Get excite! 'Rockman Exe Transmission' for the GC is finally getting a proper (and long overdue) soundtrack release.

One of the best and most underrated Rockman soundtracks, by VGM legends Shinji Hosoe and Ayako Saso. :wink:

I hated Network Transmission's Gameplay back in the day so I barely remember the OST. That good, eh?

I do recognize Ayako Saso though. She (He?) made an AWESOME remix of Big Blue for the F-Zero AX/GX soundtrack, so I'll need to give the Network Transmission OST a listen:
