This truly is the Mega Man soundtrack for a game that isn't Mega Man. This song is a work of art. I mean that literally. This is an 8bit song, that could easily have slid into the top songs for a SNES list, and nobody would bat an eye. Whoever composed this one? They need more credit. This one is a masterpiece.
I played through this a couple years ago on Twitch. Beat it on stream and honestly, this seriously is a criminally underrated soundtrack for an equally underrated game. Plus I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks this would be right at home in a Mega Man game.
Really?? I didn't see that one coming. It is a very obscure game. Only reason I knew about it was thanks to Gamepro TV back in the day, and then I got a copy new for $10 back in the day. Totally worth every dollar. Still have my childhood copy and no one will ever take it from me, they have to kill me but even then I would come back as a ghost to make sure it stays where it belongs WITH ME.
@@LUCKO2022 I never knew about it and sadly missed out on this game during my childhood. It would go unnoticed until a couple of years ago when I saw a speedrun of it during AGDQ. I found a physical copy and it fast became one of my favorite NES titles.
I actually started this game recently for a Twitch playthrough after a couple of my subscribers recommended it. My god is this game savagely difficult, but it's just too much fun and the music is absolutely amazing!
What's even harder to believe is NES games were programmed using Assembly language, since compilers from traditional languages were not as good back then.
The team who worked on the music for JtS was absolutely amazingly talented. They really pushed the NES to its limits. My favorite might be stage 2 for its unbelievable complexity, just pure eargasm... Sunsoft WTF!
This catchy tune has been stuck in my head all day. I never really played much of this game, but I recently got an original cart of it so I really ought to check it out!
A lot of the Sunsoft games had an amazing soundtrack. Too bad more people don't know about this game, it's actually pretty decent--but the soundtrack is pretty incredible, especially considering it's an 8-bit game. See the two Batman games that Sunsoft did as well for more amazing music.
Indeed! Awesome tracks!!! Wow! Can´t stop listening to them! This afternoon I have a retrogaming sesion with Journey to Silius and its an incredible game! (Very difficult as well!)
Also Known As konami is also pretty good i mean the japanese version of castlevania 3 was far more superior than the us versions also dont forget the sunsoft gameboy music is great too
This one was a rental for me back in the day, but I vividly remember how amazing the soundtrack was. I even recorded it off onto cassette on my ancient stereo. The game was great, but man, the music blew me away.
Okay, that music is just kicks ass, it's good! I haven't even played that game, just watched someone playing it, and then that music came, so I immediately searched it. It's so clean than any other NES game's music imo
My god The 1000+ bytes that make up the sunsoft pick bass samples must be the very best 1000+ bytes in the history of computing (Also yes, the samples are smaller than 1KB)
0:11-0:55, 1:08-1:51, 2:04-2:47 reminds me of the Main Theme from Hang-On (1985, Arcade) written by Hiroshi Kawaguchi and the Bubble Man Stage Theme from Mega Man 2 (1988, NES) written by Takashi Tateishi.
This takes me back. I could never get past the fourth stage when I used to play "Journey to Silius." I best remember the first stage song, and I also like the song to the third stage.
I don't know this game but this music sounds like it could fit the end of a game. I've no complaints about it being used for the start though. Also, the music is absolutely amazing
0:00-0:10, 0:56-1:07, 1:52-2:03, 2:48-2:53 reminds me of Highway Star (1972) by Deep Purple and written by Ritchie Blackmore, Ian Gillan, Roger Glover, Jon Lord and Ian Paice and This Is the Life (2007) by Amy Macdonald.
0:32 Come as you are, as you were As I want you to be As a friend, as a friend As an known enemy Take your time, hurry up The choice is yours, don't be late Take a rest as a friend As an old

This game is know to have one of the best 8 bit soundtracks ever, with some lasting about 2 or so minutes.

Acho estranho me parece que muita gente não conheçeu esse game na época do Nes, esse som é demais !. tão bom quanto do Top guear. que a maioria conhece.
Acho que você não vai ver esse comentário. Mas o top gear foi simplesmente melhor jogo de corrida do Super Nintendo. Aí fica mais fácil ser reconhecido.
For those who don't understand: Journey to Silius was going to be originally an interactive adaptation of Universal's The Terminator, but the rights were lost during the development, so assets and story had to be altered
No, it was called Abandoned Memory because you fought a boss that followed the AI of Robot Masters from the previous Mega Man games. But I do see the resemblance!
Nossa lembro da minha infancia hoje acordei com essa musica na cabeca e tive que procurar e que incrivel ver tanta musica aqui dele as lagrimas ate deceram um jogo muito querido por muitos e trilha sonora de outro mundo❤❤❤❤pode passar o tempo que for e um super classico
This could be a great NES Terminator game, but instead, we got that game (you know, the one with the first level theme that if your ears could puke, THEY WOULD)

The composer is Naoki Kodaka, he also composed the OST for Blaster Master, Batman and Super Spy Hunter
@@lwilly05 Sadly according to his credits, he stopped composing in 1997 (a PS1 game) :(
I wish we'd gotten more of him
For real, this and the boss music are so epic!
Better words never said 😢
Journey to Silius is now in the Switch NES library! Do yourself a favor and check out a great game with one of the best 8-bit soundtracks ever!
Really??

Is it really!!! Dont lie to me?!!!
@@engitions Indeed it is.
it was hard to believe that this music actually came out from a NES cartridge I mean... listen to dat bass...
It's even more hard to believe that they salvaged this game despite it was suppose to be The Terminator!
What's even harder to believe is NES games were programmed using Assembly language, since compilers from traditional languages were not as good back then.
DPCM BASS TIME MOTHERF*CKERS!
Tim Follin's NES stuff was equally mind-boggling. Check out a couple tracks from NES Silver Surfer.
His SNES stuff was ridiculous too.
Most people used DPCM to throw in really crappy voice samples. Sunsoft was like "Oooh, we have another instrument slot!"
I had this song in my head almost 30 years, couldn't remember from what game it was until it came to the switch nes library. Pure gold!!!
I didn’t discover this game until my 30s yet it STILL takes me back to my youth. Sunsoft forever.
The team who worked on the music for JtS was absolutely amazingly talented. They really pushed the NES to its limits. My favorite might be stage 2 for its unbelievable complexity, just pure eargasm... Sunsoft WTF!
JUST LISTEN TO THE SOUNDS OMG! It's so pure!
Naoki Kodaka = the GOD of NES music!
Safe to say this is now one of my favorite video game songs of all time!
This catchy tune has been stuck in my head all day. I never really played much of this game, but I recently got an original cart of it so I really ought to check it out!

I admire your profile pic
Also Known As konami is also pretty good i mean the japanese version of castlevania 3 was far more superior than the us versions
also dont forget the sunsoft gameboy music is great too
Gimmick! is their best work on the nes in my opinion. its the only one that used expanded audio and it just sounds amazing
This one was a rental for me back in the day, but I vividly remember how amazing the soundtrack was. I even recorded it off onto cassette on my ancient stereo. The game was great, but man, the music blew me away.
Journey to Silius just got added to the Switch’s NES game collection for Online subscribers! Good stuff.
referral madness Huh, I assumed that they just quietly shut down at some point and Inticreates bought the rights to Blaster Master or something. Neat.
Kodaka and the Follin Brothers really pushed the sounds of the system
WHAT a classic and awesome track
BEST OST on the NES! ty for posting this!
Best alongside Follin's, agreed
Godamn, Sunsoft mastered the NES's sound capabilities. Every game they made on the NES has some of the best music in the entire library.
Okay, that music is just kicks ass, it's good! I haven't even played that game, just watched someone playing it, and then that music came, so I immediately searched it. It's so clean than any other NES game's music imo
Man, back then Sunsoft's games had a lot of absolute bangers.
masterpiece
My god
The 1000+ bytes that make up the sunsoft pick bass samples must be the very best 1000+ bytes in the history of computing
(Also yes, the samples are smaller than 1KB)
Most likely hand-programmed!
Just experienced this on the Switch. This is great!!!
One of the first games I beat back when I was a small noob. Used to turn it on and leave it at the title screen too.
Sunsoft understood the hardware of the NES, and it definitely showed in their work...pure gold my friend
I would sit in this stage for hours just to listen to this sick beat
That amazing bass line
0:11-0:55, 1:08-1:51, 2:04-2:47 reminds me of the Main Theme from Hang-On (1985, Arcade) written by Hiroshi Kawaguchi and the Bubble Man Stage Theme from Mega Man 2 (1988, NES) written by Takashi Tateishi.
5 dislikes... Get outta here lol. This is the best shit ever
But it ain't the title theme. Don't get me wrong,this is good too, but the title theme sounds like a stage theme.
Potator I know right it's so fucking stupid how the title theme isn't a stage theme.
12 now. Why do people hate this?! This is fucking incredible!!
"Someone gave me a link and told me it was pr0n but it was this. Shame on you, GBelair, for having this here, and not me for falling for it"
Exactly! Show it some respect!
that bass is insane! Sunsoft was really good at using the NES at its full capability
the most challenging game I've ever played in my life, and this song is too good to not study to
sunsoft be like: DPCM? nah its an another instrument slot!
Naoki Kodaka = the GOD of NES music
and they made the bass
really one of the best ost on nes !
This takes me back. I could never get past the fourth stage when I used to play "Journey to Silius." I best remember the first stage song, and I also like the song to the third stage.
That Bass is Fire tho 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This brings me back to my childhood. Thanks!
Hahaa quanti anni quasi 30 e quanto ci siam divertiti.
Me too, I loved playing my NES as a kid.
f**king epic song man! I remember playing this game when i was kid back in 1990s. Great game!
Wow this can be a beautiful metal song
I don't know this game but this music sounds like it could fit the end of a game. I've no complaints about it being used for the start though. Also, the music is absolutely amazing
Good news!
It is reprised for the last stage as well!
@@danielfrey9036 Oh nice, thanks for telling me
I never played this game until I added it to my NES Classic. Awesome game, and great soundtrack. Sunsoft, and Konami, games always had killer music.
Wait... NES games can be added to the NES Classic?
Don't forget Capcom.
Never heard of this ost. Now in 2024... Wtf... It's so sexy lol.
I will always

so basically the entire song?
@@BoinguMcGoingu It seems that is basically the entire song between 0:00 - 0:10, 0:56 - 1:07 , 1:52 - 2:03 and 2:48 - 2:43
This was a game I was instantly good at, beat it in one day!!
This track is SICK! 🤟🏽
The music of my childhood back at the village!
0:32 Come as you are, as you were
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend
As an known enemy
Take your time, hurry up
The choice is yours, don't be late
Take a rest as a friend
As an old
pure classic just like the streets of rage
Inti Creates should work with Sunsoft once again and remake this game as well
I remember seeing some concept art about a Wonder Boy styled remake of this game. Don't know if it was legit or not, but that would have been awesome if it were true.
@@whatshappeninganymore2473 Thats pretty cool, where you find it?....
@@serakxi A google image search led me to the art, but I never bothered to go to the site where it was located.
They've already been referencing Sunsoft's games in Blaster Master Zero 2. Don't be surprised when Zero 3 comes out and pays tribute to this game.

+Dorelaxen That would be awesome.
I'm almost tempted to try an a capella version of it myself, honestly.
He did, if my memory does'nt playing me games
Это шедевр композиторства саундтреков к игра на NES
Finally I found my favorite music that made me kick more butt and made me a good man too I will never forget that
this was my favorite game ever. was the time when you had to rent a game era....
Memories!!!!!!! 1988 got our 1st NES😎
I imagine Jay avoiding all the bullets and model my warm-up workout to this tune.
Acho estranho me parece que muita gente não conheçeu esse game na época do Nes, esse som é demais !. tão bom quanto do Top guear. que a maioria conhece.
XandecoCanal Yes, top gear is more well known, a shame really...
Conheço pq joguei num emulador de nes e tinha esse jogo lá era mt bom
Acho que você não vai ver esse comentário. Mas o top gear foi simplesmente melhor jogo de corrida do Super Nintendo. Aí fica mais fácil ser reconhecido.
best terminator game ever
For those who don't understand: Journey to Silius was going to be originally an interactive adaptation of Universal's The Terminator, but the rights were lost during the development, so assets and story had to be altered
I know exactly what you mean, but Robocop vs Terminator on SNES was pretty solid.
The Nintendo Switch Online just added this game to their library, Nerver played it. I soon will !
Hope you enjoy it! Get back to retro basics!
epic track
Is THIS why the first theme in Mega Man 10 is called "Abandoned Memory"?!
No, it was called Abandoned Memory because you fought a boss that followed the AI of Robot Masters from the previous Mega Man games.
But I do see the resemblance!
@@danny_cookie I already knew that, I was just shocked how similar it was to that MM10 theme and how incredibly good it is!
they abandoned such a timeless classic like this... how dare sunsoft
Omg, one of my first ever video games
Probablemente la mejor Bso de todo el catálogo de NES👌
Epic tune!!!
I FINALY FOUND THIS THEME!!
A trilha desse jogo é sensacional, Mas essa é a melhor música do jogo...
Épico!
Nossa lembro da minha infancia hoje acordei com essa musica na cabeca e tive que procurar e que incrivel ver tanta musica aqui dele as lagrimas ate deceram um jogo muito querido por muitos e trilha sonora de outro mundo❤❤❤❤pode passar o tempo que for e um super classico
Meilleur musique de la NES EVER!!!
Je suis d accord :-)
GALAXY 3D "The best music of the nes ever!!!" Definitely.
on dirait que ça vient d'un jeu megaman
00:30 Nice
Oh, Sunsoft.
They were amazing back then; now they barely make any games at all. Same for Treasure and Konami. I wish 90's gaming era never ended.
same
You can say that again! It's also back when EA was actually on fire, and Activision was still respectable.
This sounds like a part that was cut from the intro
Marvellous!
The best NES ost in my opinion
I've loved the song ever since I bought the game for cheap at a mr. movies back in the nineties as a kid :-)
Perfect... ❤❤❤
BEST OST on the NES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha amazing memories ! Best soundtrack ever
The best NES song of all time.
I dunno what magic these people worked, but it's one of the best soundtracks on the NES ever
i love this song
Best Video Game Song
never played that game but the soundtrack is really sick
Can't believe this was on the NES. just bought new headset and trying different stuff with it. the bass hits hard enough to make my cheeks jiggle lol
I was introduced to this tune via Marvin Spectrum on Newgrounds. Ah the good ol' days lol.
This could be a great NES Terminator game, but instead, we got that game (you know, the one with the first level theme that if your ears could puke, THEY WOULD)

Great ost
Genius! I have this cart!
*Looking through NES games on Switch.* What’s “Journey to Silius?” *Few minutes later, bopping to this
So good see I'm not the only one that misses it
*Legendary*
Один из лучших саундтреков Восьми-битной эры
Nice song just like Megaman songs. Miss those games in my childhood.
Game's a good and a hidden gem. But the name...
I can't be the one who thought that the protag's not journeying to Sillius Soddus, right?
Best game ever
MARVIIIN SPECTRUUUM! xD
