Okay, screw it. Prepare yourselves, because this is my pick of the 200-track OST. In chronological order:
Excitement and adventure, a good start.
Mischief and magic, a good continuation.
Challenge and trouble, a good change of pace.
Beauty and mystery... I'll try not to do that for the entire post.
FUNK!
Now things are really kicking off...
Kastere's post: Rampage edition.
It's funny, I never realised these were six seperate tracks. Turns out they just merge into each other once you get past a certain point - often only a few seconds away. Makes you wonder if it was worth it.
I've got 1...
2...
4...
and 6.
This game really was pretty freaky, wasn't it? I can think of no other game with music like this.
My fraternal love for violinists may be leading me a little here. Also, a harp!
Genuinely frightening.
The funk's creeping back in again. Don't recognise this one? You were probably too busy trying to kill those fucking mudmen.
Again, not doing wonders for the 'Rayman 3 wasn't that weird' argument.
Yah-hah! Have at you, cad!
Just. Plain. Cool.
It's hard to believe this is from the same game.
Feel my plums
Everyone's favourite; Actually more subtle and relaxed than most people remember.
This is very ambient.
This is even ambient-er. And less musical.
This still gives me nightmares. Seriously.
... But that's nothing compared to this.
The Knaaren were scary, but not as scary.
Nothing says 'Battle' more than didgeridoos!
The Longest Shortcut was interesting. It was quite obviously a sort of training centre for the harder levels to come...
... And yet the music was so relaxed?
Christmas! Also, you're going to die!
Xmas: Xtreme Xedition.
This just sounds like an evil base.
Missile Command! And that funk just won't stay away...
There are sympathetic villains, and there are the kind of villains who have this music playing in their base. Hoodlums are the latter.
In platform games it seems to be obligatory for the music to get all mechanical near the end.
... And then get all techno-synth and abstracted.
The last jetcar section was a mistake, but the music was good.
Everyone's favourite... and they knew it. Hence the supercharged version.
Argh! It's so jolly!
My heartfelt gratitude to anyone who listened to even a bit of all of those. Your threefold reward:
Now let GA play you out to the next thread...
Yes, funk.

Just what I need. Rayman 3's OST is 170+ tracks, so I'm having trouble making a concise playlist. +rep
