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

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!
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…
Anyway, thanks for the soundtrack.
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.

Hehe I wont be buying the game but it is nice to see this posted here.
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.
No, don’t tempt me! :puppydog:
Sorry lens! I can be a jerk like that 😛
doesn’t make it any less true though
Thanks for the rest, though!
The first post has been updated with the new link.
Jumpman, the issue with that track is that it is apparently SEQUENCED.
Thanks and such.
This is still great until someone does a full rip sometime soon…
Someone IS going to do a full rip sometime soon, yes?
Edit: Nevermind, just used IE instead of Firefox and it worked…
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.
Maybe you could play the game?
