Well, that's what it is for now. I hopefully can convert these into proper MP3s later (if someone could post a tutorial for it, it'd help a lot). For now, here goes all the boss themes ripped straight from the ISO (no names changed for now). I'll up the Tiger theme and Minigame themes in a sec.


Boss themes - DOWNLOAD (http://www.mediafire.com/?ktnwzjkjjoz)

Minigames + Tiger theme - DOWNLOAD (http://www.mediafire.com/?wgo5emwjntn)

Shops + Rank Up theme - DOWNLOAD (http://www.mediafire.com/?jndxzdjiwxv)

EDIT THE SECOND: Null the Megaupload part. Here is the MU link.

EDIT THE THIRD: Working on the minigame mp3s now as well. I'll package those seperately, AND with the boss themes as well, for those who want both, or just the minigames.

Here are the mini game themes. As usual, DO NOT HOTLINK TO THE DROPBOX FILE.

I'm looking for some of the missing tracks, The theme for Ryan's Gym, Airport51 & Naomi's Lab.
As well as the chiptune for when you defeat a boss and the ending song.
These are the only ones I can think of offhand that are missing.

Demonfox121
01-26-2010, 11:44 AM
I'm pretty sure I can find the shop themes, I saw them somewhere. Ending song and Boss chiptune might not be so easy.

Give me a bit of time, and I'll have them up later today for someone to convert.

EDIT: Shop themes, and the Rank Up jingle added. Give me some kind of reference or video of the end theme, as I still can't find it.

On another note: There's a bunch of other themes here that I have no clue what goes to what (save for some for a Shooting minigame?). There's also a bunch of brstms for not only the death sounds, but what looks to be the cutscenes as well. Do you guys want packs for these two, or this is fine for now?

Quite a bit of the stage music comes from No More Heroes Sound Track Dark Side and the first games soundtrack. I dunno how much is new with the stage music, so I can't say if you're missing any or not if you don't already have Dark Side and the NMH OST. Also, I forgot to thank the uploaders.

hee-ho

Well i guess the 'theme' of the game is basicly the same

They use the darkside remixs of N.M.H bout 3 of them
Their's a new remix of the theme in this game
And they use the original 'N.M.H' and 'Heat in hand'
And their's a mash up of N.H.M and the Bizzare Jelly 5 theme in the Bullet Hell game thing

So i guess N.H.M is still the main theme concidering how much it's used

Last bit of BRSTM music I can find. (http://www.mediafire.com/?iyzynytgmih) Rest seems to be cutscenes, death sounds, or odd voiceovers I can't discern.

This contains:
- The Bizarre Jelly 5 shmup themes, I threw in the Title/Continue/Name Entry jingles in for good measure.
- Deathmatch stuff, not sure where this is from.
- Revenge match music
- DarkSide stuff
- some other stuff I can't recognize, but it's still a full theme.

Death Match is basically a Boss Rush mode; you pick a boss to fight, in which case they will be at Bitter level difficulty or perhaps even higher... It's unlocked after you beat the game on any difficulty, and you find it on the New Game/Load Game screen.

01-29-2010, 05:46 PM
What do you use to convert brstms to mp3s?

You don't

However you use winamp to convert brstms to WAV files, which then you can convert to MP3 via audacity

To convert you need to downalod winamp, then download in_cube.dll which is of course a plugin for winamp

Then you put that in C:/Program files/Winamp/Plugins

Then in winamp you add the brstm files to the libary (I think the program prompts you to add files to libary)

TTHHEENN you go to options and then click prefrances, then on the side menu click on 'output' then you highlight the first thing on the list (Not gonna lie i forgot what it's called) then click on configure at the bottom

TTTTTTEEEEEHHHHEEEEEENNNNNNNN you click on the file path in the new window and select were you want the wav's to go, then click close on both windows, then play the first file in the playlist

wait

then it's done

Thanks for this! Great soundtrack as expected, alas I am surprised to know Masafumi Takada didn't work on it, and twice as surprised from knowing Akira Yamaoka did.
Anyway, the rip didn't mention it, so in case anyone wants to know, here's a "cross list" of sorts between composers and characters themes.
Following how they're named in the rip:
12 - Cloe Walsh
Akira Yamaoka - Alice Moonlight
Akira Yamaoka 2 - Matt Helms
Akira Yamaoka 3 (couldn't figure this one, sorry. same as 2 and 4, though)
Akira Yamaoka 4 - Ryuji
DarkSide Hondalady - Henry (or Mimmy, if you wanna go by Boss theme)
Hagio - Dr. Letz Shake
Hagio Take 2 - Margaret
Hondalady - Captain Vladimir
Missile Chewbacca - Jasper Batt Jr. 2
Missile Chewbacca 2 - Jasper Batt Jr.
Neutrino - Jasper Batt Jr. 3
Neutrino 2 - New Destroymen
Neutrino Fukuda Mix - Kimmy Howell
Riot - Skelter Helter
TakuYoshioka - Nathan Copeland
TakuYoshioka 2 - Million Gunman
Watanabe - Santa Death Parade

Perhaps this is rather pointless, but I assume there must be a couple of listeners like me, curious to know which theme belongs to which assassin.

Question: IS the soundtrack of the first game around?

Yes, there is a soundtrack for the first game called No More Heroes Original Sound Tracks. It's three discs long and includes all of the music from the first game except Heavenly Star, presumably due to the Genki Rockets not wanting it on there. I think about 5 or 6 songs from this soundtrack are directly used in NMH2.

As mentioned before there's also a remixed soundtrack called No More Heroes Sound Tracks: Dark Side. It's only 9 songs long and all but the last two tracks are used directly in NMH2.

Rosencrantz
02-01-2010, 03:08 PM
Just a few last minute notes I forgot mentioning.
- "Darkside Hondalady", which I noted as Henry's theme is taken from the NMH Dark Side remix album, named as "We Are Finally Cowboys [golden brown mix]", a remix of Henry's theme in the prequel.
- I sorted "Watanabe" as "Santa Death Parade" because the song plays in the fight against the giant mech named as such. paperlink's indication of "Charlie McDonald" is correct as well, perhaps even more so, since it's his rank Travis takes.
- There was a mistake done by the producers where they switched characters' surnames: it's "Alice Twilight" and "Margaret Moonlight". It's an honest mistake. If you know their boss fights, the names make more sense this way.

After further investigation, I tracked this YouTube account - www.youtube.com/TheOSTation - which posted a good amount of tracks from the game, including all boss themes. Now the particularity, is that they gave "proper" names to the tracks. The poster claims them to be "semi-official", I hope that someone here who played the game could explain what that means. Mind you, the names for Nathan's and Margaret's themes are official.

Skelter Helter: B.K.C. 2 - Beam Katana Chronicles 2 -
Nathan Copeland: Nathan Is Our Boss
Charlie McDonald: DEATH PARADE
Kimmy Howell: Lovable Yandere
Matt Helms / Ryuji: Psycho Soldier
Cloe Walsh: Bondage Cake
Dr. Letz Shake: Losing Bowel Control
Million Gunman: Steel Diamondback
New Destroymen: Electromagic
Margaret: Philistine
Captain Vladimir: The Outer Rim
Alice: Twilight
Jasper Batt Jr. 1: Dynamite Rocket
Jasper Batt Jr. 2: Convulsive Madness
Jasper Batt Jr. 3: Blitzful Vengeance

At any rate, they sound appropriate. Thought I'd share this with you.

Mind you, the names for Nathan's and Margaret's themes are official.

Skelter Helter: B.K.C. 2 - Beam Katana Chronicles 2 -
Nathan Copeland: Nathan Is Our Boss
Charlie McDonald: DEATH PARADE
Kimmy Howell: Lovable Yandere
Matt Helms / Ryuji: Psycho Soldier
Cloe Walsh: Bondage Cake
Dr. Letz Shake: Losing Bowel Control
Million Gunman: Steel Diamondback
New Destroymen: Electromagic
Margaret: Philistine
Captain Vladimir: The Outer Rim
Alice: Twilight
Jasper Batt Jr. 1: Dynamite Rocket
Jasper Batt Jr. 2: Convulsive Madness
Jasper Batt Jr. 3: Blitzful Vengeance

At any rate, they sound appropriate. Thought I'd share this with you.

"I would like to note that most of the names given to these themes are made-up (by me), so do not treat them as official." Ehhh.

Does anyone happen to know why Masafumi Takada wasn't involved with this game? I thought his involvement was already a given.The soudtrack for Desperate Struggle has some really memorable music but I felt some of the tracks in the game felt a bit generic and unfitting for No More Heroes. I guess it's because the No More Heroes theme was used so much in the original game. Hearing some of the music was a bit disorienting and I was expecting "Blitzful Vengeance" to be a recurring battle theme as it was in the PAX game footage. I was surprised to see it ended up being the final Boss theme while there were some parts of the game with no music at all. Overall, I still feel this game lacked the techno style of the first. I still enjoyed this amazing game, but was disappointed with some of the final decisions.

I read the description on the YouTube tracklist page and assumed they appeared in the game, like in a save state or chapter name, hence why I asked if anyone knew what "semi-official" meant.
Also, and this was what convinced me the most, tvtropes.org explicitly mentioned "Steel Diamondback" (as means of comparison of Million Gunman to Dr Peace, whose theme was named "Steel Python").
Anyway, thank you for the, I assume bona fide, clarification.

In the Extras upload, there's 4 tracks with the term Revenge in them (forget exactly because I renamed them all), but those are the songs used in the Revenge Missions.

I was wondering if anyone knew what these tracks are:
Akira Yamaoka 3
Darkside OuterRim
Darkside OuterRim 2
Darkside Riot
Darkside Riot noIntro
Hagio (2)
HAIKANKOU A
HAIKANKOU B
HAIKANKOU TITLE
Komori
Neutrino 3
Z1500
ZAKO 01LAST
ZAKO 08 Gt Edit

and for some reason I have two tracks named
Z0601
one is 3:38
and the other 8:19

the one that is 3:38 sounds just Like Komori (same length even) just louder.

Yes, there is a soundtrack for the first game called No More Heroes Original Sound Tracks. It's three discs long and includes all of the music from the first game except Heavenly Star, presumably due to the Genki Rockets not wanting it on there. I think about 5 or 6 songs from this soundtrack are directly used in NMH2.

As mentioned before there's also a remixed soundtrack called No More Heroes Sound Tracks: Dark Side. It's only 9 songs long and all but the last two tracks are used directly in NMH2.

Thanks, no offense but i was aksing if that or both were floating around here..

The Haikankou tracks are the music from "Lay the Pipe"

The Darkside tracks are just remixes of N.M.H. taken from the Dark Side album. Specifically, they're called NO MORE RIOT and N.M.H. The Outer Rim Remix.

ZAKO 01LAST is just N.M.H. from the first game.

Not sure about the others though, they're among the few I have yet to rename. I don't feel like uploading, but if anyone wants me to list what I've renamed most of the stuff to, I'd be happy to post it.

This would interest me. I'm really particular about my filenames, and although I desperately want this soundtrack, I'm not downloading it since the files aren't named accordingly.

That's not a knock against the ripper/uploader, either -- I am incredibly grateful they've done this, and eagerly anticipate downloading it. I only want to be sure that I fully appreciate the music itself by knowing what each track is associated with when I listen.

I haven't named them anything special, like that one uploader on YouTube, and I don't know the artists outside of some of the more obvious stuff, so I didn't really alter them. I have them all labeled as being by Masafumi Takada, even though I've heard he has much less to do with this soundtrack than he did for the first game. I hope an official OST gets released soon. <_<

So, tracklist change ahead.

Wait I'm a little confused.. I'm assuming by "extras" you mean the tracks that show up in the stages/revenge missions right?


Mirror 1 doesn't seem to be working for me.. But Mirror 2 does.. 300MB is pretty large.. Is that the entire OST + the extras? Or just the extras by themselves?

As soon as I get all the appropriate names for everything I am going to put together the "track order" by in-game appearance. I usually spread the "extra" tracks out between the meat of the game. Like not all the side job music will be together, and neither will the rank matches. It will be something like Rank Stage Music -> Rank Match -> Menu Music -> Motel NMH -> Side Mission Music -> Jean the Cat -> Next Rank stage -> Next Rank Match etc... with Naomis lab and Airport 51 thrown here and there. Anyone interested in me uploading the track list when I am through? I also thought about having a "seperate disc" of the side job music maybe? I got rid of the "double tracks" that were quiter or just lacked intro or even are repeats from NMH Darkside. Keeps room in the iPod and why keep a softer version?

Yeah. Hagio (2) was also the name of a song from a side job. I just named them from what the BRSTMs were named. As for the weird names on YT, I uploaded those, because I went by the mp3 names.

As for the large filesize, anything less than high quality sounded pretty bad, so I encoded them at the highest quality possible.

That'd be a huge help...I played through the game within a few sessions, so I can't place where most of the music is from, not to mention the fact that it's hard for me to notice and recall a lot of the music when I'm fighting, especially in the boss battles. Having the track list broken up between major songs/ranking battle music and the mini-games/stores seems like the best way to go too.

I don't know if it's possible, but if there's any way you could do an upload (when you've got everything in order, names and numbering and such), of the tracks you kept (minus the repeats, softer versions, etc.), with the credits song thrown in, that'd probably be a good cap on this thread for anyone looking for the music. I've renamed a lot of the songs myself, but there are so many I can't place, or even figure out if they're a different version or just a repeat or what....it's a bit confusing. I don't know if you'd be willing to go through the extra effort, and I don't want to sound lazy, but it might work out better for us to just download your updated ones rather than go through and rename everything...but I'd be grateful for your tracklist if nothing else.

I haven't chimed in until now, but my thanks go out to everyone who helped get this music from the game into our ears once again.

I have changed (and am still updating) everything in iTunes. Would everything be good if I just upload the iTunes Folder of this music? because the original files on the HDD would not be changed unless I went back to do those.
