History AwesomeMusic / FZero

* [[https://youtu.be/IfXR6kApKzg James McCloud's theme]] sounds like something out of ''Film/TopGun''.
-->HE IS THE HERO! LEADER OF THE TEAM! DARK GREEN AND SILVER! IT'S THE SUBTLETY!

* [[https://youtu.be/TS-aogRwTDo Blood Falcon's Theme]] "Fly... Over us..."
* The first question fans will ask is why wasn't Captain Falcon's ''GX'' theme included in ''Brawl''. [[https://youtu.be/ZOa5DB_iAMs We honestly don't know why they skipped out on it either.]]

* [[https://youtu.be/eMmrQzlLpn4 Phoenix's theme]] is one of the best in the game.

* [[https://youtu.be/q0tDWgZnhLE TOO FAST! YOU LOSE, I WIN!]] Dai Goroh's theme fits the fact he wants to take after his father.

* [[https://youtu.be/L-ChEIZPhyc Lily's theme.]] A rather dark, militaristic theme which fits her {{Child Soldier|s}} character.
* [[https://youtu.be/eMmrQzlLpn4 Phoenix's theme]] is one of the best in the game.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HhjvbspyJ0 Don Genie's theme]]. Equal parts CreepyCarnivalMusic, mobster theme, and heavy metal for a ruthless, larger than life corporate powerhouse.

* The famous song that made it into practically every ''F-Zero'' game (excluding ''Maximum Velocity''), [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REdRAlPysSU Mute City.]]
* The second famous song that made it into every game, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zE15twStdiY Big Blue.]]
* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u51vsh0PiFU Title Theme,]] short but it gets you pumped to race.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVoXaZWFAMI Results,]] a rather calm tune once you beat a race (or rank out/explode).
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4bfErFbXt8 Death Wind]] has a very creepy, militaristic beat with wind blowing on and on that just keeps on going. Fitting for [[ThatOneLevel one of the hardest tracks in the game]], and the home world of [[ProfessionalKiller Pico]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJCmbipfnyA Silence]] has a nice peaceful start before it picks up.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbE0GVVStQs Port Town,]] a chilling drum and bass piece that is the perfect theme song for Captain Falcon's home turf.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldbVyorSOok White Land I,]] with its piano-sounding startup, and then the beat kicks in...and it gets awesome from there. It's reminded several people of Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean."
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2cKH2dz7FA White Land II,]] the second and more difficult version, features a more intense and heart-pounding rendition and is appropriately fitting for the bane of every player's existence, [[ThatOneLevel the dreaded jump.]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdoVz9ZlWds Sand Ocean,]] with its hypnotic drum pattern and exotic melodies, is one of the better songs in the game.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejAEx_kWmko Fire Field,]] appropriately enough the most intense song in the soundtrack for [[TheVeryDefinitelyFinalDungeon the game's final, longest, and hardest circuit.]]
* And last but not least, the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ss4nRi3EhAM cup victory theme]] is absolute bliss and perfect catharsis watching your car take a victory lap after you completed the last blood-boiling race!

* You might have trouble choosing from all 30 of the possible racers for your next Grand Prix but [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyPtM9Mdlyo this theme]] helps with that.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxDNv8RVNY4 Option]]. A nice, relaxed song, particularly with the background choir.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5coENgislqI Grand Prix Ending.]] Even if you don't make the top 3 at the end, you're still treated to your car driving on the road and the game encourages you to try again, with a song like that, it's hard not to.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVIv77yE-5Q Endless Challenge,]] a rearrangement of the Mute City theme with an electric guitar.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHkLJ3gWcuo Decide in the Eyes,]] Big Blue, also with an electric guitar.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUSxabS5_qM Dream Chaser,]] the theme of Silence. It also has an [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3itSyr1-d4 8-bit]] rendition made for the ''VideoGame/MegaMan4'' ROM hack ''VideoGame/Rockman4MinusInfinity''.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyWa1U6T1DY The Long Distance of Murder]], the theme song to Red Canyon. It gets even better with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iY1Zf0UspDk the Expansion kit version,]] which contains an extended intro riff.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mapQcynJCO4 Drivin' Through on Max,]] the theme to Sectors Alpha and Beta, and the Non-64DD version of Rainbow Road. Sounds perfect to tape the A button down when this song's playing as you, well, Drive Through on Max.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bltG9H1wlrc Devil's Call In Your Heart,]] the theme song to Devil's Forest, samples the lead riff from "Heartwork" by British death metal band Music/{{Carcass}} to absolutely majestic results. No wonder it reappeared in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', ''4'' and ''Ultimate'' completely untouched.
* [[VideoGame/MarioKart64 Rainbow Road]], ''F-Zero X''-style. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXqJEEAA-sw Hear it to believe it.]] It, unfortunately, is only available if you're using the 64DD expansion kit, which is [[NoExportForYou Japan-only]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bKJifzGaOs&t=50s The song that plays]] during the Death Race mode. ''All of it.'' It gives off a very "''There can only be one!''" mood, kinda fitting what the mode is about.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZCCdyWZ7S4 Climb Up! And Get the Last Chance]], the theme song to White Land, also reappeared in ''Smash'' and for good reason. That guitar + keyboard combo will send shivers down your spine. The Expansion Kit version has an extended outro, and is also the version that would be reused for ''GP Legend'' and ''Climax''.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CEKHrXjJOk The]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoKtv8Dfsyc other]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3NvLHbtvtM four]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gDFFWQsUYg songs]] exclusive to the ''F-Zero X [[ExpansionPack Expansion Kit]]'' are also just as intense as the main game's soundtrack, which is really saying something. Special mention goes to Big Foot, an intense tune which plays on two of the expansion kit's courses including the last one, and which riffs [[VideoGame/{{Doom}} At Doom's Gate/E1M1]], of all things.

* Cloud Carpet features some of best guitars on the UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance with its [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLYSkFpvb6I theme]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GiM8MOLkaDo Bianca City]] makes up for the lack of a Mute City.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qONPNBrPkA4 Tenth Zone East]] is seen as one of the best songs in the game and for good reason. The intro just gets your blood going, never mind the rest of the song!
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUzUHFBvcb4 Silence.]] Interestingly, the track is actually unused due to the fact the only Silence track is available on Single-Pak Play and there's no music. Quite a shame.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xypuAyvYTvw Crater Land.]] ''All of it.''
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8X0VPm5o5w Synobazz.]] Especially when you race on [[BrutalBonusLevel the championship circuit.]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0FhtbB1mDY Empyrean Colony]] has a very whimsical sounding track for those that make it there.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOtPhz4Ljvg Fire Field.]] Like every other Fire Field, this features heavy guitars. Funny enough, that means Fire Field has been in ''every'' game to date.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5CSVlYCtGI Stark Farm,]] one of the most underrated tracks in the franchise to date.
* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJTB6XLoWmE Title Theme.]] Like the theme in the SNES game, this one also gets you pumped up.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7lHWydFNLU Credits]] is a rather sudden shift from the rocking Cup Results theme but it's techno beat is rather soothing.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Vm1--TFWo4 Results,]] which emulates the original game's results theme.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMhG3Pa1DG8 For the Glory (Mute City).]] Don't like the techno sound of it? The game allows you to change it to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6wYXRLPZEQ this]] instead.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfXR6kApKzg James McCloud's theme]] sounds like something out of ''Film/TopGun''.

* The indescribably awesome trance remix of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1fRQMTn5KA "Big Blue."]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TS-aogRwTDo Blood Falcon's Theme]] "Fly... Over us..."
* The first question fans will ask is why wasn't Captain Falcon's ''GX'' theme included in ''Brawl''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOa5DB_iAMs We honestly don't know why they skipped out on it either.]]
* Dr. Stewart's theme song from ''GX''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PUYUjfQew8 Pure trance gold.]]

* Leon's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhcH3QF72vk8 theme]] is as hard rock as you can get. [[VideoGame/CapcomVsSNK2MarkOfTheMillennium Keep rockin', baby!]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bh3gk6YzaCI John Tanaka's theme.]] The techno beat makes it sound like an NES game.
* Super Arrow's ''GX'' theme. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZoHMYUmq9M It'll make you wanna save the world]]!
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0tDWgZnhLE TOO FAST! YOU LOSE, I WIN!]] Dai Goroh's theme fits the fact he wants to take after his father.
%%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZnLULxPS3g If you might think this is Fantasyland, look my way... I would cast a spell on you!]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-ChEIZPhyc Lily's theme.]] A rather dark, militaristic theme which fits her {{Child Soldier|s}} character.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMmrQzlLpn4 Phoenix's theme]] is one of the best in the game.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SzpWkUAdnY Digi-Boy's theme.]] While Digi-Boy himself might be a BaseBreakingCharacter, you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone who hated this super-upbeat electro-rock song.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFb0GJmvlEQ Feel Our Pain (Fire Field),]] a fittingly intense IndustrialMetal piece with an absolutely epic guitar providing the backdrop to racing at 2200 km/h through the mantle of a heavily mined planet.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F41PKROUnhA ZEN (Aeropolis)]] is something that wouldn't sound out of place in ''Anime/{{AKIRA}}'' or ''WesternAnimation/ObanStarRacers''. The bells in the beginning easily catch your attention and it just gets better.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7u6YLuOFC8 Osc-Sync Carnival (Lightning)]] is an appropriately moody [[{{Industrial}} aggrotech]] tune for the industrial nightmare that is Lightning.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfcueookXUY Infinite Blue (Big Blue).]] Like Mute City, there's also the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdOHcIiWT7E Cover of Big Blue]] in-case you don't like the usual song.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObJePb8A53E DIZZY (Phantom Road).]] A really dark techno theme that represents what would be a twisted version of [[VideoGame/MarioKart Rainbow Road]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nK3vPX0QkDQ One Ahead System (Cosmo Terminal),]] there's only one example of Cosmo Terminal in the game just like Phantom Road, possibly due to the fact they're NintendoHard.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vw3e_8NJV4g Brain Cleaner (Replay)]] has a buzzing guitar carried with absolutely enchanting drums.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-SvxevJrso Shotgun Kiss (Casino Palace)]] is a funky, ''Anime/CowboyBebop''[=-=]esque drum and bass piece that provides the perfect backdrop for racing through a casino metropolis. Believe it or not, it was also the main inspiration for the Sled Racing theme from ''VideoGame/ClubPenguin''.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S73p-hApW8I Planet Colors (Green Plant)]] starts off with a chiptune melody atop a majestic, bassy beat, before suddenly exploding into one hell of an EpicRiff if we've ever heard one.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tq9mipSqeC4 The Story Mode ending theme.]] It has cheesy lyrics, but it nevertheless gives a rewarding feeling, especially after completing all chapters on very hard.
* The Grand Prix [[NintendoHard Master Class]] ending theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWtj6FgkAlU Respect to "Result Theme of F-Zero"]] also gives a rather rewarding feeling.
* The AX Cup[[note]]Originally released for arcade machines, it becomes unlockable in ''GX'' after beating all cups in Master Mode[[/note]] starts out with a bang in the form of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIs8UhDjgoI "Paper Engine (Outer Space)"]], an aggressive techno track that plays as you negotiate the course's tight turns and spiraling tunnels, all while staring in awe at the meteor stream happening in the background.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okadVyHMsVY Illusion]] sounds like a song Music/{{Dragonforce}} would write.
* The BGM for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8v8yWq2skI0 Lightning]] in ''F-Zero GP Legend'', and its [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6z_Pyt1BhY remix]] in ''F-Zero Climax''. By far the most intense songs in both games.
* The tracks for Mist Flow, in both its [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-o_FZtzCcy8 GP Legend]] and its [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKTb_zeZ62Y Climax]] renditions, are as blood-pumping as one another and perfectly capture the foggy, dreamy atmosphere of the place.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_SxVtf6Nk0 The Meaning of Truth]] that plays at the [[GrandFinale climax]] of the anime.

* All of the Mute City renditions in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' qualify. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HidFV5XLugs Version 1 (Melee)]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TN36CetQw6I Version 2 (Brawl)]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3D5B_uEt-g0 Version 3 (For 3DS/Wii U)]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1W-DoHRQEg Fire Field]] from ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Brawl''. Slightly slower, way more awesome.
* The Nintendo Land Version of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgstoP7ou5o Big Blue]] manages to keep the rocking spirit of original while also adding a little techno synth to it.
* ''F-Zero X: Guitar Arrange Edition.'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8Suw71kA-8 Need we say more?]]
* Music/SmoothMcGroove and his acapella of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7nVJbI9bhU Mute City.]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbWHp4BTq7VqDy5dfrm9Wxg Tony Thai]], not only are his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RiO14SFPYGQ renditions]] of ''F-Zero'' songs in ''X'''s soundfont amazing (he even did Illusion from ''F-Zero: GP Legend'' and Tenth Zone East from ''Maximum Velocity'') but he he can also recreate some courses from ''X'' in the SNES game ''and'' their music.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPOemxud8ATqxM6Ivgw74Yg Acid-Notation]] has a nice [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVmuFAcS9k0 Big Blue Drum & Bass Remix.]]
* With the ''F-Zero'' tracks downloadable for ''VideoGame/MarioKart8'' comes amazing jazz/rock renditions of the series' most iconic themes: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6V1IIccP-4 Mute City]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfM60kXU9ME Big Blue.]]
* Music/GaMetal brings us his medley of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kWuW1yQ2u4 Big Blue and Mute City]], as well as his covers of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yYDOd9-iP4 Fire Field,]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tznFcq8WIvk Dream Chaser]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lT8tsx94pTw Illusion.]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuqyztiE6dXY9dUfN1UnYyw Remix Rave]] in general, he has done a crazy amount of songs either in an ''X'' style, an overall remix or ''F-Zero'' songs in other fonts. His more notable series has to go to ''[=G64X=]'' and ''[[XtremeKoolLetterz Xtreme Velocity]]'', not only doing ''X'' style covers but even custom courses in ''F-Zero X'' to go along with them as well. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MzSDTtns8Y Here's]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZC0oE1nguww some]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PP5QXze_hdw examples.]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBUc9zdtUNTvXU1XRJosj5A Dominic Ninmark]] gives us an AMAZING Eurobeat remix of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emUJ7c8-5ZE Big Blue.]]

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4bfErFbXt8 Death Wind]] has a very creepy, militaristic beat with wind blowing on and on that just keeps on going. Fitting for [[ThatOneLevel one of the hardest tracks in the game]], and the home world of one of the franchise's many villains.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CEKHrXjJOk The]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoKtv8Dfsyc other]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3NvLHbtvtM four]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gDFFWQsUYg songs]] exclusive to the ''F-Zero X [[ExpansionPack Expansion Kit]]'' are also just as intense as the main game's soundtrack, which is really saying something.

* SmoothMcGroove and his acapella of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7nVJbI9bhU Mute City.]]

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7o18sUE4VM John Tanaka's theme.]] The techno beat makes it sound like an NES game.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7u6YLuOFC8 Osc-Sync Carnival (Lightning)]] is an appropriately moody [[{{Industrial}} EBM]] tune for the industrial nightmare that is Lightning.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-SvxevJrso Shotgun Kiss (Casino Palace)]] is a funky, ''Anime/CowboyBebop''[=-=]esque drum and bass piece that provides the perfect backdrop for racing through a casino metropolis.

* You might have trouble choosing from all 30 of the possible racers for your next Grand Prix but [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u89N4oQFJ08 this theme]] helps with that.

Whether it's the horns from the SNES game, the electric guitar of ''X'', or the trance techno of ''AX/GX'', they're all awesome in some form to fit with the intensity of racing at 2,000 km/h.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SzpWkUAdnY Digi-Boy's theme.]] ...What, do we have to hate him because everyone else does?

* [[https://youtu.be/CZHP7VwhAK4 Jack Levin's theme]] equal parts catchy, campy and awesome, it sounds like something he wrote himself back in his pop singer days.

* With the ''F-Zero'' tracks downloadable for ''VideoGame/MarioKart8'' comes amazing jazz/rock renditions of the series' most iconic themes: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixRUMwm43cA Mute City]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwshHsUG-ls Big Blue.]]

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejAEx_kWmko Fire Field,]] appropriately enough the most intense song in the soundtrack for the game's final, longest, and hardest circuit.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8X0VPm5o5w Synobazz.]] Especially when you race on [[ThatOneLevel the championship circuit.]]

* The AX Cup [[note]]Originally released for arcade machines, it becomes unlockable in ''GX'' after beating all cups Master Mode[[/note]] starts out with a bang in the form of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIs8UhDjgoI "Paper Engine (Outer Space)"]], an aggressive techno track that plays as you negotiate the course's tight turns and spiraling tunnels, all while staring in awe at the meteor stream happening in the background.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2cKH2dz7FA White Land II,]] the second and more difficult version features a more intense and heart-pounding rendition is appropriately fitting for the bane of every player's existence, [[ThatOneLevel the dreaded jump.]]

* The famous song that made it into practically every ''F-Zero'' game (excluding ''Maximum Velocity''), [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBuXfcFKAlo Mute City.]]
* The second famous song that made it into every game, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wckFsik_vU8 Big Blue.]]
