Chaoz Japan is wicked. My only complaint is that the first level theme isn't up yet. D:

You have always been able to download these. On the behemoth forum, there is a whole list with links to the songs. @Altima NEO: Why? You can download them for free and they go really fast, so why?

Annoying to manually go through and download each one, but very much worth it. Thanks Kotaku.

Downloaded a few of them myself as they sound quite good. I recommend "Jumper" which is a nice tune imo.

Nice! I love this music. Kind of cool that they used Newground user music in the game.

It's Newgrounds, not Newground. Though, Newground was going to be its original name according to Tom Fulp. I used to visit the flash portal all the time back in the day.
As for the game, I think I'll be downloading this when I get home. =)

I got the whole thing off of Newgrounds a couple of days ago. It doesn't suffer much as stand-alone.

For those of you that didn't know, all of the music used in the game was off of newgrounds, it was already made by everyday people, and the behemoth just asked if they could put it in their game.

This tunes remind me of the old SNES/Super Famicom platformers. Quite nostalgic and refreshing!

IS it me or is that a really old screenshot of the game? The HUD looks nothing like that in my game..

He probably wants one so he gets them all at once, and so he doesn't have to download each one individually,

I'd rather download a multiplayer patch for free. Post bat cave on insane, things start getting pretty hard. Need buddies!

Downloaded the majority of the songs last week. Extremely fitting music despite most of the music not even being made for the game exactly.

@RocketMan919:
Wrong. They had a contest for songs to be used in the game, the winner has his submission used as the main menu music (DavidOrr). Most of the songs by WaterFlame were made for the game as well. Also, Tom Fulp asked my brother about his song and whether they could use it in a desert level. He asked if he'd be willing to change the song a bit to suit the game, so he did.

In complete seriousness, one of the first things I can remember thinking about when waking up this morning was "Man, it would be awesome if you could download the Castle Crashers music from somewhere." Absolutely no joke. So this is awesome. THANKYOU!

YES! YES YES YES!
I knew this soundtrack kicked ass once I got to the Industrial Castle. And then I tried to show my friends but they spent five minutes tackling the iron gate.

Am I the only person who find the majority of the selected pieces (Save for the Title Screen music and a few other rare gems) extremely annoying and needlessly low-fi? I don't expect a AAA soundtrack from a potpourri of contest winners, but in my humble opinion, if you dread playing the game because you simply can not bear another relentless, awful, looping tune, there is not much to "glee" about... I guess the old saying is, indeed, correct - you get what you pay for.
