Underrated SMW Custom Music

A thread like this was made a long time ago, but I'd like to start a fresh one.

So I find that there are a lot of great songs for SMW that go unused. I've never heard anyone use a song from Chrono Trigger (I'm sure someone has, just never heard it), even some Touhou songs go unused.

What do you guys think? Are there any songs you love that go unused?
Pretty much all of the RPG ports that aren't FF4-6, Seiken Densetsu 3, Romancing SaGa 1-3, Chrono Trigger, Paper Mario, Mario & Luigi or MOTHER (also Zelda if you consider that an ARPG)

There are four MegaTen ports on the Music section (tcdw's Kyuuyaku ports and Nameless' SMT1 port) and they're so good♥

Also Kirby ports and general assets are surprisingly underused, I feel

I've heard it mostly in JP hacks and older hacks (like Mushroom Kingdom Meltdown 2)

Well good, when I use CT songs in my hack it will be kind of a first then #w{=3}.

Also I really agree with the RPG music stuff being unused, it really should be used more often.
Might be because RPG music is usually not very fitting for a platformer game.
Any of my ports.

WyattCroucher's ports in general come to mind, especially the New Super Marisa Land ones. I guess I also haven't heard any Crash Bandicoot music in anything other than Sunset Vista and Temple Ruins, nor any Mickey's Magical Quest music.

Though personally, I could come up with a lot more instances of underrated games to port from than existing ports that are underused. There aren't any Trails games accounted for in the music section and not too many Ys ports, and there are surprisingly few Mega Man ports from games outside of the classic series and the first three X games. And that's only the beginning...

Also, agreed with the fact that a lot of ports are underused because they tend not to fit very well in a 2D Mario platformer.

I'm working on a hack! Check it out here. Progress: 64/95 levels.

I'm planning to use some Crono Trigger ports and immamelia's ports.

Castlevania music seems to be underused nowadays, although it is pretty common in older hacks.

Also, any Enix game.


Unsampled ports and especially compositions in general, I think.
It's easily the best thing I've done
So why the empty numb?
I think "Here We Go!" is a magnificent and horribly underused piece of art and music that's never seen in ROMhacks, especially people's first ROMhacks with floating munchers. I believe "Bowser Fight 4" and "Keyhole" are also very underused for unknown reasons.

end my misery
Anything thats not in the music selection #ab{:P}.
I like "Chrono Trigger - Peaceful Days". Very fitting for calm and peaceful overworlds I would say. Unfortunately hardly used...

While I haven't found a use for that song since there are songs that fit better for the project I'm working on, this song should be used more often IMO.

"Memories of Green" from CT is really good too.

Izuna's Galaxy rips are really amazing and underused from all the rom hacks I've ever seen. Yoshi's Cookies tunes seem to be pretty rare as well imo
