Background Music: Konamix by Sander Zuidema, originally by Plot.
Last Update: Feb 24, 2001
New: Gals Quest 1 MIDI opening theme added.
Here I represent you my collection of Konami and other MSX-related music data. There are plenty available from 'MIDI' section in MSX Resource Center, therefore I offer you the ones which are rarely available on Net.
This disk, Master of Konami SCC Sounds done by fabled Martos the cracker and translated by me, contains EVERY Konami SCC music and sound effects.
This disk work with fMSX-DOS or RuMSX emulator, or a real MSX + Konami game cartridge (warning: I actually know a person who crushed his MSX by inserting his cartridge after booting his MSX; see here for safer alternative) or Snatcher cartridge, but a real MSX with 128KB or more (this requirement excludes Japanese MSX2s and 2+s) with SD Snatcher cartridge is strongly recommended to hear SD Snatcher and Snatcher sounds.
This software hangs up under R800 mode of turboR, so I put .dsk images in MSX-DOS1 format for benefit of lazy turboR users.
Thanks to Sean Young, now one disk is enough to display messages in any of 3 languages - Japanese, English or Spanish. Note I rewrote some of obvious mistakes in original Spanish by myself; thanks to Konami Man and Enrique Sanchez for proofreading.;)

Click here. Originally in .rcp format (ask Locke Cole for what an .rcp format is) and then was converted into .mid. This music is the most closest one to original I have ever heard of.
Final Ending Theme
MuSICA format player for both MSX and fMSX, compressed in .lzh format.
for MSX with FM-music and SCC (recommended)
Theme of Snatcher
Music
for this scene. (revised on Oct. 30 - sorry, I once mistook the music with "Theme
of JUNKER" ^^; and bad performance with Kinrou 5th MuSICA driver
was fixed)
fMSX dsk. file Warning: terrible delay in PSG part occurs with fMSX :(
Sounds closer to original without SCC; otherwise quite 'jumpy' ;))
News: Maarten is now trying to turn whole Snatcher music CD into PC playable type.
Early Konami masterpiece.
