How did you discover video game music existed outside of video games?

When I was a kid gaming in the SNES era, the most memorable music for me came from games like Megaman X and Super Metroid. With tunes this good, I think I always knew it just had to exist somewhere. Some years later I stumbled upon some MIDI versions, and while it was good for a while, I still wanted something more authentic.

By then I was really getting into the emulation scene and enjoying games which didn’t get a PAL release (Chrono Trigger), as well as fan translations of SFC titles (Tales of Phantasia, Romancing Saga 3, Dragon Quest VI etc.), and it was brought to my attention that there were more authentic formats like SPC and GYM (Sega Genesis -Phantasy Star IV).

This was mindblowing, but at that stage I didn’t have the knowledge to convert it to burn to a CD, but I found out about original and arranged soundtracks. That hunt led me to the I-Drives of GFA, and VGM in general.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
