Someone already mentioned 4.48 sounds really much like Chrono Trigger's Battle Theme?
-
This isn't the Sega CD or the MSX2 Soundtrack, it's the PC-8801 version.
-
3:16 was my favourite tune from snatcher
-
1:58 godlike
-
Masterpiece. Especially the last one.
-
hehe i like how metal gear is intergrated in this game... funny shit ^^ is it for download somewhere? i heard rumors
-
so sick soundtrack
-
If TG-16 CD can be on Virtual Console, Sega CD should be on Virtual Console (and thus this and Sonic CD)
-
Excellent soundtrack. I never had a chance to play this game as a kid. This makes me wanna give it a shot..
-
I'd have Snatcher over Metal Gear Solid 4 anyday! Besides the great music, the whole game is very atmospheric and cool anyway.
I have not yet seen your list entirely, but what has happened to the great Commodore64 music, like in Parallax, Internation Karate+, Zoids, Commando, Pirates!, etc.?

wow great atmospheric soundtrack.
does anyone know if there will be a re-release for xbla or something?

God, I wish. I don't see it happening though, considering it really didn't sell well upon its initial release.
It's a shame, because this game has aged really well and I'm sure a lot of younger people would still dig it. Plus, it's Hideo Kojima and cyberpunk. They'd have my Microsoft spacebucks in a heartbeat.

gotta say, I kinda like the music but I'm so used to sega CD. I don't recognize a single piece of music. did they change ALL of them?

Most of the Sega CD tunes are rearrangements of this soundtrack. I think there's only one new track in the SCD version, used for the intro sequence. I'll be posting that one soon enough though, so you'll be able to compare.

I thought Masahiko Ikariko (Ika-chan) had composed the music for Snatcher, back in the days of the PC88 version and the port to MSX2. The melodies are the same.

You're right, this is an arrangement of the MSX tunes, so I edited the description. Thanks for the heads up, I made another vid with the real Sega CD soundtrack (and one for SD Snatcher while I was at it).
