337. Tranquil nighttime themes are always a hit with me, and Ever Oasis offers yet another worthy contender.

This piece is so nice. Dreamy, playful, and calming, with instrumentation that mirrors the starry twilight sky. Ahh, so relaxing. #365DaysOfVGM

336. Wii Karaoke U is by no means an iconic title. But it has hidden within it, one of the most lovely tunes you will hear on the Wii U.

The music that plays when the game is first loading is absolute bliss. Like looking at an old photo album and reminiscing. #365DaysOfVGM

335. When Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles dropped in October, I was lulled into a false of security.

Then, you hit Dorter, and Decisive Battle plays. This music encapsulates how shit has suddenly gotten real, with its intense, menacing vibe. #365DaysOfVGM

334. Lovely Planet is one of those game soundtracks that proves that quality is more important than quantity.

There aren't that many pieces, but they're all exceptional. I love how Lovely Forest progresses, it's so playful and experimental. bo en cooked here. #365DaysOfVGM

333. This week, Saturday is Seattleday. It's a blustery afternoon, the perfect opportunity for some Coffee Talk.

Andrew Jeremy's soundtrack is lo-fi brilliance from start to finish. Stay Awake sounds so blissful and optimistic, this is my forever vibe. #365DaysOfVGM

332. Famicom Detective Club: The Missing Heir was an ambitious, text-based adventure that wouldn't sniff an international release until decades later.

Once you've solved the mystery, the pleasant melody of the staff roll theme heralds a job well done. #365DaysOfVGM

331. When I think of South Park on the N64, I think of turkeys. So... many... turkeys...

Operation Turkey Butt is a mischievous opening track that is very on-brand for 90s video games. It's a shame that pretty much the whole OST just repeats this, though. #365DaysOfVGM

330. Persona games have long been defined by their jazzy, inspirational soundtracks. For Persona 4 Golden, the frontrunner in my mind would be A Sky Full of Stars.

It's so sweet, so upbeat. You feel like it'll all be ok when you hear this music start playing. #365DaysOfVGM

329. Kickass stage themes in Mega Man games are a given no matter the platform, so it's no surprise that Mega Man Xtreme 2 came correct on that front.

I love the way the synthetic snare is implemented throughout the Launch Octopus stage. A surefire toe tapper! #365DaysOfVGM youtu.be/cD-54Zaob3Q?...

328. I love it when a game's soundtrack matches the visual design. In Super Scope 6's Blastris B game, you take aim at blocks filled with jiggly ooze.

The soundtrack has a similar kind of jiggly feel to it that's hard to quantify. It's neat! And gross. #365DaysOfVGM

327. I'm a bit of a sucker for cheesy saxophone, & in the end credits of Dragon Ball Z Budokai 2, the cheesiest saxophone ever is on glorious display.

This instrumental of the main theme, Go For It, is a thing of beauty. Its power level is clearly over 9,000. #365DaysOfVGM

326. Sometimes you hear a character theme that transcends gaming. For Game & Wario, that theme is surely Jimmy Lovin'.

This sultry tune should make Jimmy your favourite WarioWare character. He's just a cool guy, yeah? At least, that's what the music indicates. #365DaysOfVGM

Demonschool is a slick and funky RPG with a rock-solid battle system that will get your brain in gear.

Is this enough for it to stave off the horrors of the underworld? Find out in our full review!

325. It's hard to believe, but Donkey Kong Country 2 released on the SNES 30 years ago today. The GBA port had a tall task to recreate a legendary soundtrack, but it was no slouch, either.

Kannon's Klaim has a more surreal feeling to it that I quite enjoy. #365DaysOfVGM

324. Now that Kirby Air Ride finally has a sequel after all these years, let's throw it back to the GameCube original.

Machine Passage is oddly menacing for a Kirby track, featuring industrial instrumentation and creepy, unnatural-sounding vocals. #365DaysOfVGM

323. Sometimes, familiar tunes can appear in unfamiliar places. For Lemmings on the Game Boy, its pause music is more often heard in the series as a stage theme.

Regardless of its usage, it stands as a charming, friendly piece of music that makes you smile. #365DaysOfVGM

322. With so many legendary characters packed into Jump Ultimate Stars, choosing a stage theme comes down to personal preference.

For me, Sweat With Pain stands toe-to-toe with the legendary tracks of the 16-bit era. That synth guitar just screams Konami. #365DaysOfVGM

321. Lost in the shuffle of the massive Wii library, Spyborgs didn't have much to boast about other than being published by Capcom.

Its soundtrack is primarily made up of generic guitar riffs, but chapter 2 does at least skew more espionage coded. #365DaysOfVGM

320. If you need a menacing factory tune, David Wise is your guy. Jeepers, Eddie, if you need an ANYTHING ANYTHING, he's your guy.

In Who Framed Roger Rabbit, the factory stage theme is intimidating and strange, with an ever-shifting tempo. #365DaysOfVGM

319. Few games bring me back to my old arcade days quite like Tank! Tank! Tank!

Stylistically, it's mostly just silly fun, but its soundtrack can surprise you with its tone. The final battle has big heaven and earth JRPG vibes. #365DaysOfVGM

318. Splatoon soundtracks are such a damned vibe, and for Splatoon 2, Ebb & Flow is perhaps the perfect encapsulation of that vibe.

With its simulated vocals and passionate riffs, it fills you with a sense of determination. #365DaysOfVGM

317. I have never driven a truck before. I like to imagine if I did, I'd hear the parking music from 18 Wheeler: Pro American Trucker.

It's just got such an accomodating country twang that puts your mind at ease. There's a real sense of optimism here. #365DaysOfVGM

316. Kirby and the Amazing Mirror did a lot of cool stuff with the GBA sound chip, offering a range of instruments to create a unique feel.

Cabbage Cavern is kinda funky and kinda cheeky. It's not your average Kirby tune, for sure. #365DaysOfVGM

315. Stick it to the Man is a weird and surreal game, so it's important that the soundtrack also be suitably weird and surreal.

The Man Cave is both of those things, as well as a little bit creepy. I really dig the jazzy instrumentation! #365DaysOfVGM

314. Sunsoft music on the NES is downright unfair with how good it is, and Journey to Silius is yet another auditory triumph.

It's honestly difficult to choose just one piece, but I love the sombre vibe of stage 2. Its tone feels more final stage to me. #365DaysOfVGM
