Unsung Heroes shines the spotlight on fifteen often ignored games including Secret of Evermore, Bahamut Lagoon, Breath of Fire II, and Legacy of the Wizard. Level 99 (one of the album’s assistant directors) notes on the album’s official site that each source tune holds a special meaning to the musician involved, making it a rather personal remix album.

But even bad guys deserve their dues. That’s exactly why OverClocked ReMix is paying tribute to these vicious villains with a totally badass remix album appropriately titled BadAss Boss Battle Themes. But not just any style of music would do. These had to be the most dark, gritty, downright evil mixes forged into mp3 (and FLAC) files.

What does that translate to? Well, mostly heavy metal. But there’s also some really mean electronica and even an epic orchestral Mega Man 3 arrangement. You may think you’ve heard your share of “One Winged Angel” remixes already, but you’ve probably never heard one that channels the hard hitting beats and abrasive synths of early Justice tracks like PrototypeRaptor’s mix does.

If you think you’re bad enough, head over to the official site to grab the album. It won’t cost you any money, but it will take guts. After all, these dudes are pretty bad.

25YEARLEGEND reinterprets memorable tunes from all across the franchise including some of Link’s less covered, portable adventures like Link’s Awakening and Oracle of Seasons. It’s a loving tribute to the music of a series that inspired each of the indie (and not so indie) game composers involved. Disasterpeace (Fez), Laura Shigihara (Plants vs. Zombies), C418 (Minecraft), Souleye (VVVVVV), and Big Giant Circles (Mass Effect 2) are just a few of the talented contributing artists.

Will this music unlock any secrets if played in the right place? You’ll never know unless you grab your horse, boat, train, or goofy looking bird creature and ride on over to the official site to grab the album.

The aim of Super Dodge Ball: Around the World was to take Kazuo Sawa’s original score and reinterpret in a variety of ethnic styles. With an interesting hybrid of world music combined with, rock, trance, and symphonic music, I think it’s safe to say they succeeded. They even got MegaRan to perform on the obligatory rap song.

You can grab the album for free on the official site. But before that, be sure to watch the trailer below.

Heroes vs. Villains features 20 songs from 10 different franchises including Monkey Island, Streets of Rage, Kirby, and many more. Each song features a hero’s theme from the OverClocked ReMix side and a villain’s theme from the aptly named Bad Dudes.

Now here’s something interesting. We’ve heard of episodic games, but what about episodic albums? Rather than waiting several years to release all five discs of their new album, Final Fantasy V: The Fabled Warriors, OverClocked ReMix has decided to do make it available one disc at a time.

Of course, like all OCR albums The Fabled Warriors is 100% free (and available in both MP3 and FLAC formats). Each disc is labeled after a different crystal with Disc I taking the name “Wind”. While we may only have access to one disc at the moment, it features 9 songs spanning many different genres from a variety of artists including Sixto Sounds, Zircon, DarkeSword, and more.

So head on over to the album’s site and grab Disc I. Afterall, it’s free. Still not convinced? Check out the teaser video after the break.
