TMNT II, The Arcade Game for NES: Soundtrack S-T-E-R-E-O Edition

Back again with another release. This time it's TMNT 2: The Arcade Game for NES.

The 5 channels consist of the following:

1- Main Left
2- Main Right
3- Bass
4- Drum Brush or Rustle (Can’t think of the exact musical term)
5- Drums

Unlike TMNT 3 for NES, the drum brush channel was barely used, so I kept it in the center this time.

To create the stereo image, the channels are placed as the following: -80 (1) -60 (3) 50 (4) +60 (5) +80 (2). Think of -100 as full left and +100 as full right. The goal was to create an even listening experience across both ears, so one side wouldn’t have all the music while the other had nothing playing. Channels 1 and 2 often ‘harmonized’ with each so that’s why they were spaced most apart.

The track list is as follows:
01 - Intro 0:11
02 - Character Select 0:58
03 - Apartment Building 2:18
04 - Boss 1:46
05 - Building To Downtown 0:09
06 - Downtown Times Square 2:07
07 - Downtown To Sewer 0:04
08 - Sewer 2:19
09 - Sewer To Central Park 0:05
10 - Snowy Central Park 1:49
11 - It's Springtime 0:09
12 - Turtle Soup 0:08
13 - Parking Garage 2:17
14 - Madison Square Avenue 2:19
15 - Highway Expressway 1:49
16 - House Of Shogun 1:36
17 - Technodrome 0:08
18 - The Technodrome 2:44
19 - Krang 1:23
20 - Shredder 1:59
21 - Epilogue 0:21
22 - Ending 2:00
23 - Game Over 0:05
TOTAL TIME - 28:44

Wow, 24 views and not a single reply. Not cool guys. :(

[Lil G]

Downloading now.

[Cowabunga Kiefer]

very nice, dude! Thanks a lot!!!

[GodzFire]

I have to say, I'm very disappointed in the TMNT community here. After 102 views and 40 downloads according to my download tracker, only 2 people have actually said thanks for this.

As it stands, I don't think I'll be doing the rest of the game soundtracks, since people can't even be bothered to take 1 minute out of their day to comment and leave feedback. To those who do appreciate this and have commented as such, I'm sorry.

Don't you remember what I said last time about the view count? It is pretty much meaningless, so you shouldn't base anything on that.

As for the download count, that one is more accurate and I can see your point there, but you still need to take into account that this forum is viewable by guests, so the majority of downloads are probably from them. And, unfortunately, I doubt very many of them would register just to say thanks.

If it's very important to you that you only want people to download these if they post a comment, we could temporarily move this to the Announcements section, since that one is only viewable by registered members.

Well I said thanks in one of the other threads you made, and I haven't even downloaded the files yet :P

I don't post often and probably even thought this was the same thread as before. I do appreciate it since I will download it eventually.

But yeah this is the internet you can't expect a lot of thanks sometimes especially when first available but overtime people appreciate it more.


A shame if you don't continue it but its your decision after all.

[gobo]

Ooh! Thanks for the reminder. For the past week, my PC has been w/o internet connection. So, I planned to say "thanks" when I got back on my own hardware and downloaded it. Now, I think I'll just say "I coulda done better myself". :P Respond well to pressure, don't I? ;)

[TMNG]

This is truly well done. Mixed just enough to add another dimension but so true to the original. Simply Awesome. :tgrin:

[cammy85]

Cool, thanks!! :)

[PoshPanda]

Have not heard the files yet, but remasters set my soul ablaze, thanks for the files:tsmile:

[Shark_Blade]

I'm on my phone now, gonna check when I get home.

Cheers and thank you! TMNT2 is one of my earliest games ever.

[BMo]

I know this is a REALLY old thread but I just found it. The original poster hasn't even been on the boards for like two months, but anyway, the music sounds really good. I am sad all his other files no longer work. If you see this, good work man and thank you! :)

[pannoni1]

Well mixed GodzFire wherever you are! Now do the first and third NES games if you or someone else can!

[BMo]

It seems he already did in 2009, but the links no longer work. Hopefully he sees this and gets them back up again. Or maybe another member might have them from make then and can re upload them

[dudeabides]

Holy guacamole! Thanks dude.

[the fixer]

Cheers buddy! :twink:

[neospike]

Thank so much for this!

[Shark_Blade]

Finally got to listen to it. I'm not tech savvy, but I think it sounds more pleasant to the ears. I guess that's stereo compared to midi(?).

Thanks again.

[Ecto Jedi]

Love this soundtrack. Some of the best tunes to come out of the NES era. And one of the reasons The Arcade Game stands superior to The Manhattan Project, to my way of thinking.

[Gwydion]

The OP may not be on anymore, but wanted to say I downloaded this last night and have been enjoying it at work today. Sounds great - thanks!

I too would be interested if anyone has this version of the first and third NES games (or if the OP sees this and could reupload them).

[Ecto Jedi]

Just downloaded and had a listen -- holy sh*t, does the stereo mix ever make a difference. This is, without a doubt, the best these tunes have ever sounded, and probably ever will.

Man. Just...Man!

[shihe]

I recall not being quite satisfied with my other TMNT2 soundtrack download, but this sounds a whole lot better.

Thanks! :D Please keep this up!

[GodzFire]

The OP still lurks around here :-) TMNT III for NES Soundtrack should be on this board somewhere. I didn't do TMNT I because I hated that game since I was unable to get past one stage when I was young and never played it since.

But the file links to send space no longer work, same with the Turtles in Time songs. Any chance we can get a re-upload to a new service (like mediafire)

[Shreddhead]

Just downloaded, Thanks!

[gobo]

Been years since I listened to this. Still awesome. :tthumbsu:

[GodzFire]

I'll see if I can get it back up.

[Gwydion]

I'll see if I can get it back up.
Awesome! It'd be much appreciated if you could!

[Ecto Jedi]

I'll see if I can get it back up.

Yeah, yeah, yeah! We need those Manhattan Project tunes in stereo!

[Nameless]

This is AWESOME :D. thanks for the link.

[Ninj]

This is way cool. Thanks for sharing

[GodzFire]
