Yes yes, I know many of you hate Earthbound (Mother 2) for whatever reason, but
Mother 3's music is OUTSTANDING for a GBA game. Considering how much the sound chip sucks anyway.
About now you might be asking, well how the fuck will I know the music is good if the game is Japanese and I'll never play it!?
Well because I asked permission to post some samples and Willco ( :hump ) said yes! :-*
V--v--V
Now there are 250 tracks on Mother 3, and I sure as hell wont be uploading them all, nor do I have all of them. :'(
Anyways Shigesato Itoi, the creator of the series went with a wide range of music with this one, lots of sad piano, drumlines and mambo even! I mean who doesn't like to mambo!??
The game is split into 8 chapters, and as such each chapter has different music. Battles themes are reused however in most chapters.
Prolouge Music (Meeting the family, Lucas and Claus, Hinawa, Flint, and dog Boney):

(the intro song, samples the runaway five song from earthbound, which is awesome)
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/pro/Mom'sOldHome.mp3
(a log cabin on a mountain, very western looking, good fun song)
Chapter 1 (A forest fire is set by pig masked people, you must save people trapped in a burning building, people die.):
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/ch1/MOTHER3LoveTheme.mp3
(the main theme for the entire game, samples earthbound quite a bit. :) )
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/ch1/GentleRain.mp3
(a sad song for a sad story, it fits well)
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/ch1/Going_Alone.mp3
(venturing alone has never sounded better)
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/ch1/Sorrowful_Tatsumairi.mp3
(a mothers sorrows )
Chapter 2 (You infiltrate Osohe Castle in search of a important relic before the pig masked people get it, too bad its full of ghosts.)
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/ch2/AndThenElMariachi.mp3
( a mariachi sounding song, good stuff. )
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/ch2/Dry_Guys.mp3
(not sure about the title here, im thinking desert because thats what chapter 3 has. )
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/ch2/FamilyMattersSecondMovement.mp3
( I'm pretty damn sure this samples Beethoven, correct me if I'm wrong.)
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/ch2/Robber's_Mind.mp3
(This song plays as you watch a pink haired thief infiltrate the castle, my fave ch2 song. )
Battle Songs (In Mother 3, the beat of a song is important as a combo system is in place where if you attack on the beat, you can get more hits off and do up to 16 hit combos.):
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/battle/TroublesomeGuys.mp3
( My Personal favorite battle theme)
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/battle/MambodeBattle.mp3
(Mambo battle!)
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/battle/Tougher_Zombeat.mp3
(The best example of the combo system, just a beat)
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/battle/mrbattytwist.mp3
( When you fight bats, this Batman themed song starts, :) )
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/battle/BOSS1.mp3
( A boss battle which sounds very epic, you fight a mechanized dinosaur. )
http://www.xeroseven.net/m3m/battle/BOSS2.mp3
( You fight a ghostly musical composer. )
Thats all I will host for now, but please have a listen and maybe comment on this because I put a lot of time into this thread.

Yeah this took maybe 30 mins to do at most, but I fail to see the reason for apathetic responses. Free music enjoy, I guess...

cause you said the n-word a while ago

It's a good post. Shut the fuck up, Cheebs.

Can I blame himuro for setting the initial tone of the replies?
