Hey people,

I’ve just compiled a complete soundtrack from Yokota's (?) YouTube OST videos.
It’s not excellent, but it’s all that we have for now.

It’s directly taken from YouTube, totals 51 audio files in AAC format, same audio as in original YouTube stuff to avoid additional compression.

With tags and cover art! But no track numbers, sorry.

Enjoy!


The first comprehensive Super Mario Galaxy 2 soundtrack
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=KC24Z5K8


Edit: Added cover art!




Edit: Apparently a few songs a missing, such as Super Mario World Athletic theme. Still most of the game is here, so enjoy this first album before we are done with a 100 % complete rip of the game!

I very much doubt that is really his YouTube channel, when he should be promoting the OST for purchase really, but thanks for the upload nonetheless.

Oh, and I'm sure the real album cover will be more inspired than a Yoshi outline consisting of sky from the top of the game's cover...

Oh, it's definitely not the real Mahito Yokota. The cover he's using for the OST was made by a user from NeoGAF.

Anyway, thanks for the soundtrack.

Thank you! :)

I have to try not to overdose on this insanely happy music before the game is released here (2 whole weeks away!). Very heartening to see it described as 'masterful' by Craig Harris on ign.

Are we sure this is the lot?

Thought as much. Even if Yoshi were to be the cover [the idea itself isn't bad], the quality would be far greater!

That's been ripped onto YouTube anyway, yeah.

So good music!

Not your cup of tea eh? I loved the first Galaxy - took me back to the way I felt playing games as a kid. The surreal imagination and sheer joy are incomparable this gen, and the sequel, by all accounts, has gone up another notch; not to mention the actual platforming, difficulty and ingenuity.

Plus, the Wii is my only console, so when Nintendo pull one out of the top drawer I take notice ;)

There's more of a liberal mix of real instruments and synth this time. The playful fiddle and guitar in Puzzle Plank is lovely, as is the combo in Yoshi Star Galaxy, complete with hammond organ.

On the downside, there's a few tracks that stick too close to the formula, without a distinctive identity of their own - I'm thinking of Fluffy Bluff here. Some more varied orchestration wouldn't have gone a miss. But it's all very infectious.

The album is missing the Hightail Falls Galaxy. (SMW Athletic redone)

Thanks for the rest, though!

It is indeed awesome. Nwehehehehe!

Jumpman, the issue with that track is that it is apparently SEQUENCED.

Happy music. Hmm, I seem to be lacking such lately. I'll grab it and hopefully it'll satisfy my ears until a better quality is out.

Thanks and such.

Is there a SMW Ghost House remix in this game? Someone that purportedly played it mentioned it on some SMG2 stream, and I don't hear it in this rip.

So from what I can tell, this is missing the Yoshi Drum beat versions of the songs (I swear I heard drums in a trailer when Mario hopped on Yoshi...), as well as the Super Mario 64 Slider theme and the Super Mario World Athletic theme (Hightail Falls Galaxy, apparently). There may be new songs that haven't been ripped either, so I wouldn't really know...

This is still great until someone does a full rip sometime soon...
Someone IS going to do a full rip sometime soon, yes?

Could you possibly upload to another fileshare site? Any of them besides Megaupload (It doesn't work for me anymore... Every download gives me unexpected end of file...)

Edit: Nevermind, just used IE instead of Firefox and it worked...

My rip is finished, I ripped all the music I found from the game. It will be uploaded by later tonight so please grab that guys.

If someone could label the track numbers, that'd be swell.
I just finished labeling a 200 song album, so I'm all labeled out. haha

How can music be in HD? The background image is, but the songs weren't even 320 on the actual Wii disc, so HD videos are semi pointless.

Forgot the second area, but it's heard in Tall Trunk Galaxy's second star, and Comet star.

Is the SMW castle theme really in the game or did you mean the Ghost House theme?

I love how the Bowser boss fight theme is a callback to the original one back in the first game.
