The Barry Steakfries games are full of kickass music, courtesy of Cedar Jones and Jesse Higginson.
Age of Zombies
  • The game begins with Caveman, the theme for the first world that sets the tone for the rest of the game.
  • Future combines the game's metal themes with more ominous and dramatic future-esque music, giving it the great sense of a finale (being the last of the five original worlds).

Monster Dash (2014)

  • The menu theme has a Halloween vibe to it, which fits the game's theme of travelling across the worlds to fight off the monsters.
  • The themes for each of the worlds are all awesome. All of them start off relatively calm and a bit somber, only to turn into catchy themes that still present a sense of threat.
    • Yeti Heights is a chilly remix of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen".
    • Zombie Metropolis greatly captures the feeling of running across the roofs of the abandoned town filled with deadly zombies.
    • Hallows Hell was originally created for a Halloween event, and is as catchy as it is ominous.

Jetpack Joyride

  • Jetpack Joyride's Main Theme, the series' most iconic track. A combination of Jazz, Rock and Electro, this theme will hardly ever leave your head.
  • Headphones Remix, a downright amazing Dubstep remix of the Main Theme, plays as you ride S.A.M. or use the DJ Barry head cosmetic.
  • The Stash is a relaxing theme used for the game's shop and customisation menus. For many, it is almost as iconic as the game's main theme.
  • Jingly Joyride, a jazzy remix of "Jingle Bells" when you get the Sleigh of Awesome. It is sure to prepare you for An Asskicking Christmas.
  • Run the Tracks S.A.M., a trapstep-esque theme, which perfectly captures the feeling of riding a golden version of Strong Arm Machine covered in diamonds.
  • Scary Arm Machine sounds like a creepy circus music accompanied by an equally creepy distorted voice at first. It then turns around and becomes an upbeat metal theme.
  • Radical Run and Turtle Party from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles event are radical remixes of the iconic opening theme from the 1987 show done in Jetpack Joyride style.

Jetpack Joyride 2

  • The game starts off with the remix of the original Jetpack Joyride theme. While general consensus is that the original version is still superior, many agree that this remix holds up well on its own, having a solid feeling of throwback to it, while still presenting something fresh, as with the game as a whole.
  • Both boss fights with Professor Brains are accompanied by It's Boss Time. Energetic and intense, it perfectly captures Brains' aesthetic and sets an example for other boss themes to follow.
  • Arctic Industries is what happens when you turn traditional Russian folk music into an electronic remix. It's as epic as it sounds.
  • Meltdown Mik's theme makes use of a hardbass to create an atmosphere so unapologetically stereotypical, yet so fitting for a boss fight against a Husky Russkie villain in a laboratory located in the Arctic.
  • Red Photon's theme sounds like it came out of an anime, and is used for a villain who is particularly fond of Japanese tropes.

Other

  • On October 6th, 2015, Halfbrick uploaded animated Rock Opera music videos on their YouTube channel, all of them incredibly catchy.
    • The Very Last Minute, an extended version of the song that played in one of the trailers for Monster Dash. The rock music, made to fit the Training Montage in the music video, and Barry's great singing voice make for a one fine tune.
    • I've got a Robot Bird is an awesome duet between Barry and one of the scientists with no luck. So awesome, it made its way into Jetpack Joyride as a theme for "Zappy Bird" event.
    • Shirt Sleeves is an incredibly catchy theme that explores Barry's Sleeves Are for Wimps character trait.
