Notes:
I discovered the game while going through all
OSTs that use the Kenji MsDRV sound driver for
MIDI playback.
The game's soundtrack instantly got me with the
build-up in the Opening song, which is stuck in
my head since then.

My favourite songs are the Opening and Theme of
Bryan.
I can also recommend listening to the SC-55
MIDI version.


Song titles were obtained from the game's
"Music appreciation mode".
Huge thanks to bmosley for helping me with the
translation of some of the song titles.

Song 20 is not in the sound test, so it has no
title. It sounds like a Game Over theme, but I
haven't played through the game, so I don't
know.

For the screenshot I decided to take it before
the menu text box appears, as you can see more
of the image this way.


In "Tension 1", the echo on channel FM3 seems
to have a small time drift. (I mainly noticed
this, because the loop finder didn't work as
well with this song, so I had to investigate.)
