* The music that plays throughout "Jack is Naked", while definitely non-traditional for the series, is very catchy, sounding like it came right out of a ''WesternAnimation/SillySymphonies'' cartoon.

Added DiffLines:

* James L. Venable's entire score for the first series. Honestly, with all the other sounds telling the story, you won't miss dialogue.
* The beautiful music in the first episode (briefly reprised in "Young Jack in Africa") during young Jack's travels to many different countries, training and learning under many different masters, with instruments and textures seamlessly shifting to match the current country and teacher.
* "Rave in the Forest," in which Venable briefly departs from his typical "symphonic music with some electronic elements" style and does full-on techno. And it is glorious.
* The opening for "Jack and the Three Blind Archers" is also pretty cool. Sounds a little like something from [[VideoGame/CommandAndConquerRedAlert Red Alert]] with the marching/stomping going over into the beat and all.
* The music throughout "The Scotsman Saves Jack" is utterly fantastic, especially in the travel montages, combining an epic "swashbuckling" feel with the Scotsman's bagpipes in equal measure. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toAWvBd7FXY The Sirens' song]] in particular is hauntingly beautiful.
* Similarly to the Sirens, the score throughout the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYKV6BdeWp8 Spring]] segment of "The Four Seasons of Death" is almost achingly beautiful, and expertly invokes the mystery, wistfulness, and longing that define Jack's journey.
* The pitch-perfect noir score for "Tale of X49" is one of Venable's finest hours, and has been proven to make people cry.
* The absolutely ''epic'' music in "Robo-Samurai vs. Mondo-Bot" when Jack, inside the Robo-Samurai, is marching out of the ocean to face the Mondo-Bot, is as brassy, bombastic, and ''magnificent'' as any HumongousMecha show has ever had, [[spoiler: and gets an appropriately glorious reprise in the final season when the Mondo-Bot [[DynamicEntry smashes through the wall]] [[HolyShitQuotient of Aku's fortress.]] ]]
* The Omen's theme is incredibly creepy and disturbing.
* Some of the music for the trailers counts as this, such as Carpenter Brut's "Hang 'Em All" from the main trailer and Lorn's "555-5555" for the teaser to Episode 3.
* Tyler Bates' hauntingly beautiful "[[Music/EnnioMorricone Ecstasy of]] [[Film/TheGoodTheBadAndTheUgly Gold]]"-esque cue from the scene of Jack hiding in the tombs.
* The soundtrack that plays when Jack and Ashi ride the sea serpent back to land is also very pleasant to listen to.
* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugRw6oowpC4 Samurai Drop!]]"
* The rousing bagpipe chorus that heralds the Scotsclan's arrival to give Jack's allies their second wind.
* The sweetly beautiful melody that closes the end of the series.
