History AwesomeMusic / Metroid

* [[https://youtu.be/eGsNKWAEArw Brinstar Depths]] from ''Melee'' is just as awesome as the original chiptune, which is even included in this remix.
* The original ending theme is [[https://youtu.be/y1ZjyWma4P8 made even better]] by ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''.

* Ridley's theme remixed for the [[https://youtu.be/S9xq-vK7tNc fight against Omega Ridley]] sounds particularly dark and menacing.
* The [[https://youtu.be/irLc2kpoyRU title screen]] perfectly sets the mood for what's to come, sounding much more somber and climatic than its predecessors.
* GFS Olympus has a [[https://youtu.be/YTOx4E4dpZ8 serene and atmospheric ambient track]] fitting for a spaceship in space. It's also played in Eastern Skytown.

* ''Corruption'' takes the already-awesome Dark Samus theme and makes it ''incredible'' with [[https://youtu.be/QFOqGV-6bck this remix.]]
* [[https://youtu.be/6nMFLquJeCc Rundas' theme]] is not only epic, but also rather somber, fitting a fight against a former friend.
* [[https://youtu.be/_rHnfNmiAcM Gandrayda's theme]] remixes the Chykka boss theme and adds a beautiful choir melody that completely changes its mood.
* The surprise [[https://youtu.be/zdTVDJbffZQ remix of Crateria's Caves in Prime 3]] was undeniably crowning music of awesome, especially considering where it played. It also means that both of the Space Pirate themes can be in one game.
* The final boss, [[https://youtu.be/foaNVrvhpnM Aurora Unit 313,]] takes Dark Samus's battle music and mixes it into a foreboding theme reminiscent of those of Mother Brain. And then the second phase [[https://youtu.be/yLogHXFIEdA kicks it up a notch.]]
* [[https://youtu.be/zwZhUb9N38Y Bryyo Cliffside]] goes for a more tribal chant than standard ''Metroid'' fare, perfectly setting the tone for the ruined civilization of Bryyo.
* The calm, beautiful, and majestic [[https://youtu.be/LuzAcqgABO4 Skytown, Elysia]]. The Chozo always seem to have the greatest choirs.
* The [[https://youtu.be/o9vnc6kzhWY Gunship Theme]] and [[https://youtu.be/gvcfrLKCtgA Samus' Mission Briefing with Aurora 242]] both feature a nice small rendition of the ''VideoGame/SuperMetroid'' theme.
* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGpkM6HVHhE credits]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMG44O4cdHo record]] themes.

* The hunters all share the same basic theme for their encounters with Samus, each with a slight difference. [[https://youtu.be/IrbFTNHNlMc Kanden]] adds alien synths, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CykUpCkGEls Spire]] adds a beefy bassline, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyCTfcZWQa0 Sylux]] adds intense PsychoStrings, [[https://youtu.be/-RgD2E9Yxcs Noxus]] adds a noble choir, [[https://youtu.be/2SotHEITmUI Trace]] adds creeping stabs (which would actually get louder the closer you got to him to counter his cloaking), and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVKO2_rlBjU Weavel]] adds a subtle electric guitar. From looking at the fandom, it seems to be widely-agreed that Sylux's theme is the best out of the six, [[EnsembleDarkHorse unsurprisingly]].

[[https://youtu.be/IrbFTNHNlMc Kanden]] adds alien synths, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CykUpCkGEls Spire]] pumps up the bassline, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyCTfcZWQa0 Sylux]] adds intense PsychoStrings, [[https://youtu.be/-RgD2E9Yxcs Noxus]] adds a noble choir, [[https://youtu.be/2SotHEITmUI Trace]] adds creeping stabs, and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVKO2_rlBjU Weavel]] adds a distant electric guitar.

* Interestingly, this game's version of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqTR77eyP4o Meta Ridley]] sounds much more like his usual theme with new instruments and less like the original mix from ''Prime''.

* ''Hunters'' may not exactly have been the best game in the series, but it did have music that earned its place with the best of them like [[https://youtu.be/pzLCJqzDHdo the Final Boss Theme]] and [[https://youtu.be/RxEkhtWTXsg Vesper Defense Outpost.]]

* ''Pinball'' also gave us [[https://youtu.be/DdInrDohqt4 its rendition of Tallon Overworld.]]

* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdWmDIpZZB4 credits music]], complete with [[OminousLatinChanting Ominous Luminoth Chanting]]!

* The ambience of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZGvBEDo5vk Torvus Bog]] makes for a combination of beautiful and foreboding. This area was once a lush forest, but has been reduced to a dangerous swamp.
* If the Red Brinstar theme from ''Super'' started out good, then ''Echoes'' absolutely perfected it with its remix used for the [[https://youtu.be/y7_6fLLQ1_I Torvus Bog Hydrodynamo]].

* ''Echoes'' took the first game's Space Pirate theme from ''Prime'' and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IsqpeYYMSI upped the ante]], making it sound creepier and more sinister than ever.

* If the Red Brinstar theme from ''Super'' started out good, then ''Echoes'' absolutely perfected it with its remix used for the [[https://youtu.be/2NIzmi3-kA8 Torvus Bog Hydrodynamo]].

* The classic ''Metroid Prime'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15_PGFMJ4E4 title theme]] is truly extraordinary. It gets even better when you make it to the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0_-BkhG9Sw main menu theme]], which sits comfortably as one of the most recognizable songs in the entire ''Metroid'' series.

* Any player who had sat whistling the menu screen music from ''Metroid Prime'' was made endlessly happy by the incredible [[https://youtu.be/JBTecFA6sb4 end credits]] music. And apparently it's in the Dorian scale, too, which makes it all the more awesome.

* If "Brinstar - Overgrown With Vegetation Area/Green Brinstar" started out good, then ''Echoes'' [[https://youtu.be/2NIzmi3-kA8 made it even better.]]

* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXC1h0En0RI title screen]] sets the mood for what's to come, building upon the title melody from the first game while adding catchy desert percussion line, and then building up to a new choir melody that was awesome enough to become the basis for the ''Metroid Prime Trilogy'' title theme.

* The ambience of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZGvBEDo5vk Torvus Bog]] makes for a combination of beautiful and foreboding.
* The fight against Chykka's larva form starts out with a slow, ominous [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ErDdMUquQY beat.]] Then, after Chykka metamorphoses, it gets remixed into [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8XQzhZfm4k this]], with a percussion line perfectly matching the beating of its large wings.
* Red Brinstar got a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7_6fLLQ1_I remix]], turning the earthy tune into something slower and colder. It worked perfectly for a water section.
* ''Echoes'' took the first game's Space Pirate theme and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IsqpeYYMSI upped the ante]], making it sound creepy and sinister.
* Possibly because it is quite much Beeps and Boops, or because it was the graphically most awesome level (Tetris flood, glowy things and, for once in all those Metroid games taking place on half-abandoned planets, a massive sprawling city), there's few things not to like about [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMAZprkx3E4 Sanctuary Fortress]] in ''Metroid Prime 2: Echoes''.
* The theme for Quadraxis also has a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTbagKhTaNk cool robotic sound]] to it, along with the weight fitting for a fight against a HumongousMecha.
* Dark Samus is an excellent antagonist, so of course [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnYAqv1jgzI her theme]] is equally awesome.
* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOTuBjh4dMY Emperor]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ch84h8SF2fE Ing's]] boss themes. Both fitting for leader of the Ing.
* The Parasite Queen theme was [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKPDvyFXgPE remixed]] for the Amorbis boss fight, which is even more awesome.

* The Omega Pirate's encounter is great. First there's its [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqXNu0XI5zQ ambience theme]], which plays as you enter the massive chamber and see it waiting for you inside a capsule. Definitely one of the creepiest ''Metroid'' songs ever, skillfully incorporating the usual Phazon ambience. Then the fight starts, and his [[https://youtu.be/Trodb0jlJNQ battle theme]] is sure to make you shudder and run for cover. Get ready for waves of Beam Troopers!
* [[https://youtu.be/nLLjibR_c4Q Meta Ridley]] is one of the most iconic of Ridley's remixes, being a tense techno mix of his usual {{Leitmotif}}. It even got reused in ''Prime 3''.

* [[https://youtu.be/ZbbUv1hz6mE Phendrana Drifts]] is just so serene and relaxing, perfect for tromping through the puffy snow... and then [[https://youtu.be/4U_tQFI4pY4 Phendrana's Edge]] adds a catchy techno beat that'll have you swaying in your seat.

* The three [[https://youtu.be/2cFIa29FXfM Chozo]] [[https://youtu.be/unL0Va5cknM Temple]] [[https://youtu.be/ga-PP27zI4o themes]] from ''Metroid Prime''. Each just sounds so powerful and mysterious, truly giving a vibe of holy and sacred grounds.

* The [[https://youtu.be/wtz1kmO70aM mini-boss]] used for the Plated Beetle, Sheegoth and Cloaked Sentry Droid is also a very heart-pounding beat.

* [[https://youtu.be/LudFV61zsaw Underwater Frigate Reactor Core]] from Metroid Prime. It fit the mood, and it was beautiful.
* Prime took the already cool Lower Norfair and remixed it for [[https://youtu.be/QQCZIb0fbt8 Magmoor Caverns]] and it was promoted to pure Awesome.
* After a certain point in the game, it gets replaced by [[https://youtu.be/V6Ky2BMVWfs Tallon Overworld 2]]. When you first land on Tallon, you've lost all your powerups, you're stranded and helpless. The second theme comes in after your armory is starting to get decked out and you're on a roll. You're becoming a badass again, and by God does the music make you feel it.
* The theme for Flaahgra was glitched in the first US release for ''Metroid Prime'' causing it to repeat the first part throughout the whole battle. It wasn't until the normal English version, the Player's Choice versions and ''Metroid Prime: Trilogy'' came out until we got to hear [[https://youtu.be/JhnrH30411A how awesome it really was.]]
* [[https://youtu.be/ULqTvwfEtSo Phazon Mines]]. It's hauntingly great and will make you paranoid when you're in this place.
* [[https://youtu.be/Trodb0jlJNQ Omega Pirate.]] This song will make you shudder when you meet him for the first time.
* [[https://youtu.be/XXS3XZwPaEk Chozo Ruins]] is incredibly catchy. Especially in the ''Trilogy'' version of the game, it's very tempting to [[PlayerTic bob Samus's gun up and down to the rhythm of the beat]] while exploring the area.
* Anyone who doesn't get chills down their spine when they hear [[https://youtu.be/3cWbLagjxbA Chozo Ghosts]] is not even human.
* Any track that immediately puts the player into paranoid mode, as the [[https://youtu.be/RdebQ-y15Dg Space Pirates theme]] does, deserves credit.
* The three [[https://youtu.be/2cFIa29FXfM Chozo]] [[https://youtu.be/unL0Va5cknM Temple]] [[https://youtu.be/ga-PP27zI4o themes]] from ''Metroid Prime''. Each just sounds so powerful and mysterious, truly giving a vibe of holy and sacred grounds.

* The rather annoyingly-catchy theme of the [[https://youtu.be/TblxPu9JB2U Parasite Queen]]. The song absolutely screams ''Metroid Prime'', making heavy use of the synth strings, hard-hitting basses, and unique snares and percussion that we've all come to expect from the series. If you listen with headphones you'll also notice there's an electric guitar in the background starting around 0:35, which is easy to miss when playing the game on a television. Pity how one of the game's best tracks is used with the first (and easiest) boss... but hey, it got into ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''! Eat your heart out, Omega Pirate.

* The [[https://youtu.be/owt7Cxk43bo Hive Totem]] battle music from ''Prime''. Short-lived, but oh-so-awesome. The deep opening choir feels like you've just awoken some ancient being.
* The [[https://youtu.be/15_PGFMJ4E4 title screen]] perfectly sets the mood for what's to come. This game's intro was so good that Nintendo used it to announce ''Metroid Prime 4'' at E3.
* Any player who had sat whistling the menu screen music from ''Metroid Prime'' was made endlessly happy by the incredible [[https://youtu.be/JBTecFA6sb4 end credits]] music. And apparently it's in the Dorian scale, too, which makes it all the more awesome.
* [[https://youtu.be/ZbbUv1hz6mE Phendrana Drifts]] is just so serene and relaxing... and then [[https://youtu.be/4U_tQFI4pY4 Phendrana's Edge]] adds a catchy techno beat.

* The theme for [[https://youtu.be/mziw3FQkZYg Tallon Overworld]] does an awesome job of setting the mood. A very calm, but still awesome [[VideoGame/Metroid1 Brinstar]] remix.

* The rather annoyingly-catchy theme of the [[https://youtu.be/TblxPu9JB2U Parasite Queen]]. The song absolutely screams ''Metroid Prime'', using the usual synth strings, hard-hitting basses, and unique snares and percussion. If you listen with headphones you'll notice there's an electric guitar in the background starting around 0:35, which is easy to miss when playing the game on a television. Pity how one of the game's best tracks is used with the first (and easiest) boss... but hey, it got into ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''! Eat your heart out, Omega Pirate.

* The [[https://youtu.be/wtz1kmO70aM battle theme for the Plated Beetle, Sheegoth and Cloaked Sentry Droid]] is also a very heart-pounding beat.
* When we saw Samus Aran for the first time not only in 3D but also in eight years, she had [[https://youtu.be/8l2dba0C_uM a damn good fanfare]] to herald her return. Welcome back, Samus. Our controllers have missed you. [[https://youtu.be/xxSkZ8ySo1o A shorter, but no less triumphant welcome]] greets the player returning to a save file.
* [[https://youtu.be/nLLjibR_c4Q Meta Ridley,]] who arrives on the scene with a techno remix of his old {{Leitmotif}}.

* The [[https://youtu.be/owt7Cxk43bo Hive Totem]] battle music from ''Prime''. Short, but oh-so-awesome. The deep opening choir feels like you've just awoken something ancient.
* The rather annoyingly catchy theme of the [[https://youtu.be/TblxPu9JB2U Parasite Queen]]. Pity how one of the game's best tracks is used with the first (and easiest) boss, but hey, it got into ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''! Eat your heart out, Omega Pirate.
* Let's give the titular Metroid Prime itself some love here. The [[https://youtu.be/6_BUofQCJLA exoskeleton boss music]] from the first game is particularly awesome, using strings somewhat reminiscent of Mother Brain's final theme from ''Super''. The [[https://youtu.be/WaIoLwVQJes core essence boss music]] is arguably even better, as a BossRemix of the ''Metroid'' series' recurring title theme.

* Let's give the titular Metroid Prime itself some love here. The [[https://youtu.be/6_BUofQCJLA Prime boss music]] from the first game is particularly awesome. But, the [[https://youtu.be/WaIoLwVQJes Prime final boss music]] is arguably even better, as a BossRemix of the ''Metroid'' series's main theme.

* The rather annoyingly catchy theme of the [[https://youtu.be/TblxPu9JB2U Parasite Queen.]] Pity how one of the game's best tracks is used with the first (and easiest) boss.

* In keeping with ''Fusion'''s SurvivalHorror vibe, the background music in this game is very tense and ominous compared to some of the other games' more upbeat romps. Honestly every sector's theme is quite competent, so let's hear it for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2hgVSJ7VBs Sector 1 (SRX)]], [[https://youtu.be/HPsPVhWnpfg Sector 2 (TRO)]], [[https://youtu.be/14CP34VmwQw Sector 3 (PYR)]], [[https://youtu.be/29njjEQhohc Sector 4 (AQA)]], and [[https://youtu.be/yowIikQZesk Sector 6 (NOC)]].

* [[https://youtu.be/eQfnA6UI1_w X Invasion]] really emphasizes the horror of the X gaining access to the environmental sectors aboard BSL.

* The mandatory Ridley theme remix, played while fighting [[https://youtu.be/3-hTk6_XngU Neo-Ridley]]... even though you probably won't hear it much [[SensoryAbuse thanks to Neo-Ridley constantly screeching.]] It is also significantly slower-paced than most Ridley remixes, and given that this is the last game in the series' timeline, it also hits home the fact that [[KilledOffForReal this could have been the last Samus has seen of Ridley]].
* [[https://youtu.be/WHYdVT6dUAs Crisis Mission,]] a foreboding piece that plays during the countdowns.

* In keeping with ''Fusion'''s SurvivalHorror vibe, the ambient music in this game is very tense and ominous compared to some of the other games' more upbeat romps. Let's hear it for [[https://youtu.be/14CP34VmwQw Sector 3 (PYR),]] [[https://youtu.be/29njjEQhohc Sector 4 (AQA),]] [[https://youtu.be/yowIikQZesk Sector 6 (NOC),]] and [[https://youtu.be/HPsPVhWnpfg Sector 2 (TRO).]]
* When [[https://youtu.be/7zUv8jdGvjM Environmental Disquiet]] starts playing, ''get scared''.

* [[https://youtu.be/D40RHPimrKk The SA-X Approaches,]] which sadly, lacks the horrifying 'tap tap' of the footsteps. And you ''pray'' it doesn't turn into [[https://youtu.be/_ckKjgfq2Es Escape From The SA-X...]]

* In ''Super Metroid'', the "[[https://youtu.be/Hx4Gsp5rcwM Crateria Theme]]" invokes a sense of heroism and the call to adventure, setting the tone for the game in general. It also makes a dramatic return at a critical point in the final boss battle [[spoiler: just after Mother Brain murders the Baby Metroid]]. There isn't a player alive whose heartbeat, EEG reading and adrenaline release rates didn't all immediately synchronize with the pulsing bass rhythm, prior to [[spoiler: blasting the everloving fuck out of Mother Brain with the newly-acquired Hyperbeam whilst screaming the blackest curses in their vocabulary]].

* While it lacks the intensity of the other two boss themes, the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUGBW3Qc4K4 boss theme]] used for Spore Spawn and Botwoon is downright hypnotic. It somehow synchronizes perfectly with the Spore Spawn's disturbing undulation.

* The theme for the encounter with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZG-wiA1670k Mystery Creature]] seems like a generic exciting battle theme at first. However, if you listen closely you can actually hear the theme of a certain giant purple space dragon cleverly hidden within. Try focusing on the percussion first and you'll figure it out. The song also plays during select battles with Cyber Zebesians Mighty Griptians.

* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvUBwU-1pWg lockdown battle theme]] is an exciting and cinematic song that plays when Samus gets locked in a room with some new enemies to take on. It feels like the situation is, but not impossible to overcome.

* The original themes for [[https://youtu.be/T-2sE0Napg0 Brinstar]] and [[https://youtu.be/gXLvJNLMKdo Norfair]] both set the mood for exploring an alien world. Brinstar's theme, the first one heard after gaining control of Samus, is upbeat and adventurous to hook the player's interest immediately, while Norfair's theme is more minimalist and mysterious as our heroine explores the deeper reaches of Planet Zebes.

* While it's not a very recognizable tune, falling a bit into the trap of atmospheric noise like the rest of the ''Other M'' soundtrack, the [[https://youtu.be/ZFuWLWtcDqc Sector 1 theme]] sounds like something out of ''Franchise/MetalGear'' and is a very effective background theme for exploring the abandoned Biosphere.

* While it's not a remix of its more memorable theme from ''Fusion'', [[https://youtu.be/rXI_lEn01GY Nightmare]] gets a much more overtly terrifying theme.
* [[https://youtu.be/2lBDdaNmudc This song]] is shared by both [[spoiler:the Metroid Queen and Phantoon.]] It is suitably frightening.
* [[https://youtu.be/hn2rYj16Vm8 The Vorash,]] perfect for killing giant lava fish to.
* And a remix of the ''Super Metroid'' [[https://youtu.be/vAFEY0Yuxns theme.]] It was so good, they used it in the [[https://youtu.be/lWuYpTh-foM E3 '10 trailer]] for ''Metroid: Other M''.
* The [[https://youtu.be/L1Y7YCezFdk alternate title screen music]] that you get after beating the PlayableEpilogue will get the intended emotion out of you better than anything else in the game.
* [[https://youtu.be/ypdvQQg3tyg The Biological Experiment Floor]] manages to come close to finding that perfect blend of atmospheric ambiance and minimalist yet catchy melodies that the rest of the series is well-known for.
* [[https://youtu.be/DTtNrVnHdFw Approaching Sector Zero]] really captures the tense feeling of slowly building up to a big climax.
* While it's sadly brief, the brass fanfare in [[https://youtu.be/Bxv4odiTNQg Final Mission Resolve]] does a good job of pumping up the listener.
* Battling [[RecurringBoss Rhedogian]] while listening to [[https://youtu.be/2gg1rLTV88w his theme]] always gives an intense feeling.

* [[https://youtu.be/Fje8t9Jyy-o Ridley's Theme]] is back and better than ever.
