Music

RoboCop 3 probably has the most impressive soundtrack of the whole NES series, thanks to the talents and fidelity of Jeroen Tel and his sound driver. The title music in particular has become very popular. Tel also did the Commodore 64 version, which shares many of the same tunes. However, Tel explained that he did the NES version's soundtrack first, and later wrote the Commodore 64 version. As a result, the Commodore 64 version's music has a different arrangement than the NES version, albeit pretty similar.

Jeroen wrote the music in assembly. The music should also be recorded in the PAL format, as Tel explained it was the intended way his NES music was to be heard.

Recording

These recordings were made using foobar2000 with exporting to OGG (Vorbis) format.
