I'm going to listen to Zelda Skyward Sword - Staff roll while I roll up some socks and whites.

By putting my clothes away I am saving the entire universe.

Breath of Fire OST. Certainly not a perfect RPG, but the soundtrack is very creative and underrated. Nothing else on SNES sounds like it (except for the sequel of course).

The more I listen to FFV's OST, the more I like it. I actually find it to be more creative overall than FFIV's OST.

It's the entire NIN album of Pretty Hate Machine turned into chiptunes. It's pretty amazingly well done.

I'm convinced that no one has made a good remix of this yet because it really needs none at all. So good, soo good.

It does, right? I was hoping someone else would give this a listen after I posted that. I'm so impressed by how he captures so many of the little details of Pretty Hate Machine. Obviously he does the main melodies, but he also approximates all the little effects and reverbs and stuff. Even his chippy version of Down In It manages to get all the timing and tone bending of Reznor's pseudo-rap vocal delivery.

Check out Side Brain as he uses an NES pad as a MIDI controller for triggering samples in Ableton Live.
