Which NES soundtrack do you find very relaxing?

I remember enjoying a lot of the Mega Man music. But also the theme for the first area in Crystalis has stuck with me for ages.

Assuming that this is the cave, which it sounds like from this walkthrough:

NES Deja Vu, great music for the puzzle solving.

Solstice.

There's something profoundly relaxing and sound-bathic about it, spesh with a low pass filter or filtering out all the treble.
The House song from Mother 1 is amazing and so is the rest of the album in this light
Try it; I double-dare you
The title track from Shadowgate is awesome.
If you're into nixing the treble, Super Glove Ball's whole soundtrack goes bass only when you pause the game.
SNES recommendation: Super R type has a killer soundtrack.

Chrono Trigger - Main Theme
Note that this is SNES.

An orchestral remix, I believe rendered with some MIDI synth; the artist here appears to have done two CDs:

River City Ransom - Menu/Shop Theme
Thanks for doing the leg work! So many memories!

That Super Mario Bros 2 - Game End lullaby is perfect.
When I first beat it as a kid, I just sat there for 10 minutes listening. This song has permanent resistance in my head.

I'm guessing that this is paused.

MIDI-sequenced remaster from some project to create MIDI versions of SNES music:

This is so cheeky. He starts off with the most generic NES music imaginable then proceeds to simply obliterate its soundchip.
Spot on.

Composer put out straight fire on this one

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I'll do a MIDI render for the heck of it as well to illustrate for anyone else who might have an interest in doing MIDI renders of NES audio tracks.
:::spoiler MIDI render walkthrough
Starting from the
eb0_mother_livehousesong.midMIDI-sequenced version here:https://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/nintendo/nes/
Use MIDI soundfont Musyng Kite (a more-realistic, not-very-synthy soundfont; there will be ones that'll be closer to the NES, but this will have the non-synth instruments sound more-realistic) converted to .sf2.
Use TiMidity++ to render to a WAVE file (could just play it directly, too, but I want to upload it):
$ timidity --volume-compensation --anti-alias -in -D10 -S20M -OsS -c ~/.timidity/timidity.cfg -EFresamp=L -EFreverb -EFvlpf -EFchorus=s -EFdelay -EFns -Ow -o eb0_mother_livehousesong.wav $ cat ~/.timidity/timidity.cfg soundfont "/home/tal/m/sw/sf2/Musyng_Kite.sf2" $Convert to Opus-encoded WebM, as Lemmy will accept inline WebM:
$ ffmpeg -i eb0_mother_livehousesong.wav -vcodec vnull -acodec libopus eb0_mother_livehousesong.webmAnd then uploading to catbox.moe.
Referencing the video in a spoiler tag, because I don't know of an audio-only format that Lemmy is okay with, and the Lemmy Web UI tries making a large video player for WebM:

wrote on last edited by [email protected]This might be a weird, obscure game, I think, but I LOVE the Act 1 Part 1 song from Totally Rad and Act 1 Part 2 is my second favorite NES tune. The whole OST is just fire.
https://youtu.be/vLbR-vm-Ry8 - Part 1
https://youtu.be/l-IZG44nfvk - Part 2
The game started as a sort of jrpg sidescroller, but it got... butchered from "Americanizing". Still gnarly, though (heh).
Also, honorable mention, all the music from The Guardian Legend. All of it. I love that game so much.
The Guardian Legend OST - https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEOQ0YA_1DWlqKUJkOJaJL0YB2brVTCFd
One of the best songs - https://youtu.be/W2q0aIql0Qw
Oh shit, and this one (sorry, I'm like a kid in a candy shop trying to pick my favorite when it comes to NES) - https://youtu.be/o_VzSKgTye0
