Visit here for the Official Soundtrack (MP3): Thread 189459
Many thanks to MacFirson (http://forums.ffshrine.org/members/macfirson-139451), whom converted the original data to FLAC for me, which I was able to clean up to something more convenient to listen to and/or edit.
Although every bit of music from the rip remains in the FLAC format, there was an MP3 addition from the Official Soundtrack due to that particular music track not being found in the available game files, but present in gameplay footage I studied. I was able to clean out the dialogue to give it's place purpose, but naturally there's no benefit in re-rendering a 256kbps MP3 file in FLAC.
All of the tracks have been named based on the in-game levels they were present in (Or based on their file names if that was not an applicable method), and numerically ordered them in a fashion that hopefully gives it the right placement as an album & consistent with their in-game level structure (A majority of the music was reused numerous times for numerous levels, so this gave me room to be less specific to the latter). Despite this, I've left any music that looped with their loop-intros, loops & loop-ends as separate files, as this simply gives you the freedom to create loops that suit your length with great ease (Especially if you use Audacity like myself), which you can then re-render in any format you choose.
If you'd like to give this a go yourself; here are the links to the Nintendo GameCube Rip & the much less substantial Xbox Rip (Thanks to Alpha23 (http://forums.ffshrine.org/members/alpha23-147214) for providing me with), which I believe VGMStream (http://www.hcs64.com/vgmstream.html) is the tool for the job:

Otherwise, I hope you enjoy the music of this forgotten gem as much as I have (And wished I knew about it 12 years sooner!) and forgive me not providing an MP3 alternative (Which is due to the fact that it would ruin the ability to seamlessly loop the files together, as well as having spent far too much time on this as it is!).
