Your ears are not lying to you: That's ''{{eurobeat}}'' in a ''Wangan Midnight'' game, rather than a ''VideoGame/InitialDArcadeStage'' game. As expected of modern eurobeat, it's well-suited for a high-speed drive with its upbeat tempo, passionate lyrics, flashy synths, and rockin' guitar solo. Reminiscent of TheEighties disco music too. ''Shakotan Boogie'' anyone?

The first game and its UpdatedRerelease have [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness a distinctly different style]] in their soundtrack, creating a racing artmosphere that may remind one of older street racing and car chase scenes.

One of the ''VideoGame/WanganMidnight'' franchise's best-known elements is its video game soundtracks. Composed mainly by Creator/YuzoKoshiro, they've gone from stuff you'd hear in 70's and 80's chase scenes to trance that practically takes you to another world.
