10 Minutes of Video Game Music - Fire Tripper from Salamander 2

[LavosTheCat]

I always mistake this OST for stage 6. It make me feel like I have only few steps before battle with final boss.

The OST's version of this is very different from what you hear in the sound test in Salamander Deluxe Pack.

@ZeetherKID77 - And what you hear in Salamander Deluxe Pack Plus' sound test is the version hidden in the Salamander 2 ROM on the arcade board, the TRUE Fire Tripper.

From the name and the tune of this, I think this song would've been GREAT in stage 2. I mean, the name fits, the tune fits, the melody is practically an orgy... Yep, definitely stage 2.

[crapheadandidiot]

Aww yeah! This song just SCREAMS "Konami! Why didn't you use me?!" Who's with me?

[Ace9921]

I sure am!

[Ryuuenjin]

yah this woulda been nice in the game, though I did really enjoy hearing moonspin in it which i think has become my favorite song

[Ace9921]

You like the Salamander 2 remix of Moonspin? I don't; it's my most hated version of Moonspin. For me, nothing beats the Sharp X68000 remix found in Nemesis '90 Kai. Pure awesome.

[Ryuuenjin]

well maybe I should clarify, I ment I liked moonspin in general, I dont remember really salamander 2's version really standing out in general to me, and my introduction to the song was gradius rebirth

[Ace9921]

Oh yeah. The Gradius Rebirth version is awesome. The MSX original is no slouch either, but the FM Synthesized remix in Nemesis '90 Kai is simply THE best version of Nemesis '90 Kai to me.

[Ryuuenjin]

alright having decided to just compare the two, I like the start of rebirth version better, the rest sounds kinda muddled, while the beginning of the nemesis 90 kai dosnt appeal to me as much the rest of it sounds better than the rebirth version, atleast to me

[erickbond008]

Nice song!

[ZombieRyushu]

I loves me some Salamander!
