Shadow Of The Beast OST (Sega Genesis, 1991) [line-out console rip, FLAC-WAV @ 16/48]

Composer: David Whittaker
Official OST: CZCD 031 | Shadow of the Beast – VGMdb (http://vgmdb.net/album/7492)

First, the basics: Here are the OSTs for the US and Japanese versions of Shadow Of The Beast, recorded from the headphone jack of a Model 1 Genesis with a VA3 revision motherboard. Audio was captured using a Behringer U-Phono UFO202 and Audacity 2.0.3. Aside from some volume optimization, this is raw audio straight from an actual console, no emulation. Each looping track was allowed to play twice, then given a 10-second fade-out. I gave each track a general-purpose name and ordered them relative to their in-game use.

Now the details: For those of you who don’t know the story, SotB was ported to the Mega Drive by British developer WJS Designs. Being based in the UK, they programmed the game for PAL hardware. When SotB was brought to North America by EA, no one bothered to adjust the timing for NTSC consoles. Consequently, on a Genesis the game runs about 16% faster than it should. This affects the tempo of the music, as well. My rip of the U/E version represents how it sounds on a Genesis, incorrect tempo and all. A year later, SotB was published in Japan by Victor Industries. Not only did they correct the timing, but they added some option settings, a sound test mode, and some original musical compositions, and made some modest improvements to the graphics. The title music has been replaced, but all of the other in-game tracks are present in their original (and correct) form.

Total time:
SotB US – 20:02
SotB J – 28:01
