I'm looking for a very rare OST, from the arcade game Violent Storm. VS is like Final Fight on steroids, great stuff from the Konami era of beat em ups. I've checked everywhere for it and noone has it...

Yes, I am trying to find this OST myself. The album name is Konami Amusement Sounds '94, and it is a 2 CD release. I believe the tracks from Violent Storm are on CD2 (I got these informations from the web). But there aren't any download sources.
So, if anybody has the music from this great Konami's game, it would be nice to post a link for it.
Very much thanks in advance, for any help you can provide.

We are in the same boat, I also want to get that great OST. Even more outstanding (depending on taste, of course) is Metamorphic Force OST also by Konami. It is a great beat 'em up (1993). I encourage you to check it out on MAME. If you loved Konami's X-Men and Violent Storm, you won't regret it. Anyway, to cut a long story short, the titles of the OSTs we are looking for are Konami Amusement Sound Autmn '93 and Summer '93 (or Spring, not quite sure). Please, let me know if you come accross any of those jewels. Thanks a lot, and good luck in your quest!

Yes, Terry, I played Metamorphic Force, X-Man, and of course, Violent Storm in MAME.
Actually, I managed to "rip" some of the Violent Storm music from MAME using cheats, but I didn't get very far with it. Not all of them could be extracted (for now).
I guess we're stuck waiting for someone to share the actual soundtrack CD with us... If that ever happens.

Best regards!

However, here is a sample of the game music rip for all of you Violent Storm fans:

This is the first track on the official OST CD. The name used here was provided by MP3 pages containing the information about this CD.
I hope I'll patch through a few more memory tweaks for this game and be able to clearly get the other music from it.

Well, I successfuly made it! I managed to rip 18 out of total 19 tracks listed on the original OST CD. The track 19 is some kind of a bonus track and it doesn't exist in the game ROM, so I couldn't get that one. The musics sound OK, and I edited and cut all the tracks to make them compact as much as possible. I also made every track duration match the one listed on the CD info. Lots of editing and MAME memory hacking went into it, but it payed off!
Wow, I finally have the Violent Storm OST now!
Cool game with awesome music!

Dude.

I've been looking for this soundtrack for literally years now. Finding a copy of Konami Amusement Sounds '94 has proved impossible, so this really makes my day.

I'll seriously send you $10 or whatever if you can hook me up. Shoot me an email at mercatfat AT gmail DOT com, and I'll make sure your efforts haven't gone unrewarded.

Do not say that ever ever again please.. you do not have the OST, you have a Game Rip, i am tired of people claiming they got "Original Sound Tracks", when they rip the music themself.

One more thing, the Konami Amusement Sounds '94 Spring album is not really hard to find, you are not searching hard enough..

If you claim it isn't so hard to find it, then I suppose you managed to find it yourself! Why wouldn't you share it with others, then?

I'm sorry for that.. if i wanted to answer and fill all the requests on this forum, i should upload files for the rest of my life..

But since you ask for this kindly, here is the "bonus track" you are missing:
19 - Who'll Be The Hero (DJ Mix Version ~ F.O.) (http://www.filefactory.com/file/c6784a/)

OK, that was very nice of you. It would be really great if you could find some time and upload the whole CD for us. That would be awesome!

I can share this achievement of mine, just for a good measure:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=VPVALLUP

OK, this is the Game Rip soundtrack, so it sounds at the quality the way MAME plays it from game, but it is the music only. I disabled the background sound effects by tweaking some memory addresses. Also, the track naming are purely supposed by me and might not be accurate. The Track 19 (the one in "my release") is not the actual one from the CD by no means. Anatar has the real stuff.
The MP3 audio is recorded at 44.1KHz, 192kbps.
It took a while for me to "extract" these audios, and I hope you'll like it, and we all hope out friend Anatar will be our hero/heroine and free us from the unsuccessful search for this soundtrack once and for all.

Best regards, Anatar, and to all others!
=)

Way to not be a dick about someone doing something that's still totally better than anything else out there.

Like he said, feel free to refer us to the location of the CD. It's not on Soulseek, nor is it on any other file sharing network that I've checked. I should note that it isn't that I haven't found a copy, per se, it's simply that the prices were absoludicrous. If there's a digital copy easily fluttering about, please do the world a favor and point us to its location. You don't need to "upload" anything if you could make good on what you're claiming and point us in the right direction.

Mariste
10-26-2007, 11:07 PM
Yes, Mercat, I also searched all kind of file sharing networks and didn't have any luck finding this release. All I could find was a front cover for the disk. Also, some resaults turned to be some kind of an auctions sites, where you could buy the music, or whatever it goes... That was of no avail to me...

Ok, here's the complete "Violent Storm" soundtrack (from Konami Amusement Sounds '94 Spring), tracks 01-19 on disc 2.

For the rest, i guess you can request it on Sarah's thread, i am pretty sure (s)he have it, or at least (s)he can find it easily.

Anatar, I don't know how to thank you enough for this! The search for this Soundtrack lasted for years, and I was in a way forced to try and rip it from the game so I could at least have something. And all that work was not for nothing. Eventually you appeared because of it, and now look what happened - a real soundtrack upload!
You really made my day! Thank you so very much once again!
=)

Best reagrds!

Hey, thanks a lot for your priceless contribution. Do you happen to have Metamorphic Force OST as well? I'm going mad looking for it. The title of the album is Konami Amusement Sounds Autumn '93, I think. If ANYBODY has this OST(no game rip, I can do that myself, and I've actually ripped a few), please share it, you'll definitely be thanked forever. Once again, Anatar, thank you.

Maybe you are using a shared IP address. That could cause download servers to think that you are already downloading something, when you are actually not. I've seen this problem a couple of times with ADSL users, for example...

RapidShare works very well with me.

However, here is a mirror link on Megaupload:

I hope you'll manage to download it now.

Hi everyone! Once again I beg of you guys: does anybody have a link for Konami Amusement Sounds Autumn '93? I need to add Metamorphic Force OST to my Game Music Collection. Thanks a lot.

Holy shit! Thanks everyone for replying and doing the ripping, I can't believe I never checked back when I started the original post. Completely forgot all about it, a very nice New Year's Eve gift.

It'd be cool to get the X-Men, Metamorphic Force and Simpsons OSts too.

Thanks very much for this, Violent Storm is one of Konami's best brawlers, ever. Which is certainly saying something

Music from The Simpsons is really incredible in parts, so yeah, I second that request.
