"Missing" songs in the Sega CD version

Post by SegaSky »

I'm trying to put together a "complete" soundtrack for the Sega CD version of SNATCHER (As much as I love the vinyl from STS, there were quite a few missing songs). Along with as much in-game music as possible, I've been trying to track down the CD-quality songs that show up in the game.

Here's what I've compiled so far -

SNATCHER Zoom Tracks
-One Night in Neo Kobe City (The intro)
-Theme of SNATCHER Part 2 (The briefing at the top of Act 2)
-Pleasure of Tension (Chin in the hospital)
-Tear-stained Eyes (Credits)

Perfect Selection: SNATCHER & SD SNATCHER
-Twilight of Neo Kobe City (At the airport in the final scene)
-Triumphal Arch (During the turbocycle destruction scene)

I'm still missing the songs that occur...
-On the way to the factory/Meeting Random/Random's sacrifice at the hospital
-During Harry's death
-After defeating Snatcher!Cunningham

I'm still going through the game to refresh my memory and rip the music, so there may be more missing songs, but were these tracks ever released?

As far as I know, the missing tracks weren't released anywhere.

If they are, it's a fine shame. I hope they get released someday.

Also while making my rip, I've run into the problem of lots of songs having dialogue over them, making it impossible to get a clean sound. Both the vinyl and other rips online managed to get around that issue, but how they do it I don't know.

The Vinyl was an official release so they were probably given master audio recordings to press

From the Ship to Shore listing:
"All other tracks captured by STSPC staff on a Model 1, Stereo-Modeed[sic] Sega Genesis with Model 2 Sega CD attached!"

So it sounds like they didn't have access to anything in the vault. I'll still hold out hope for the missing songs to release someday.

Huge news!

A YouTube user named SynaMax has recently hacked the game, found the music files, and uploaded them - including an UNUSED version of "Theme of Katrina" and "Blow Up Turbocycle" with no sound effects!
