Favorite redbook soundtrack by henke37 at 10:06 AM EDT on April 13, 2017
One thing from the 90's was the widespread use of cdrom devices for game mediums.
But at the same time, the rest of the hardware usually struggled to find use for all the storage space. As such many games choose to spend the practically free space on music.
But enough backstory, lets talk soundtracks.
My personal favorite is the obscure platforming game Lomax. The soundtrack is very well done.
Well, the only redbook soundtrack that I'm fully familiar with was the Saturn version of Sonic 3D. I'm aware of others (Sonic CD, I think), but Sonic 3D is the only one I've actually listened to the whole soundtrack for.
Sonic CD's soundtrack (I am of course referring to the JP/EU soundtrack) is a thing of beauty. Excellent use of variations on themes, wonderful instruments, and catchy as fuck.
Expected and unexpected favorites by Sephirothkefka at 5:26 AM EDT on April 14, 2017
Two CD-DA games I love the most are Rondo of Blood and Mega man X3 (hate me all you want idgaf). Roland Sound Space and Q-Sound makes it all the more evolving with the addition of 44.1 khz 1411 kbps sweetness of course.
