VG music that is similar to other VG or non-VG music

If you know video game music that reminds you of a certain track / song that may or may not originate from a video game, you're welcome to post it here. :)

Some guidelines:

None of the tracks is an official arrangement/remix of the other track, and there are notable differences
Both tracks are from different series
The composers for both tracks are different persons Tracks by the same composer are ok if there are very notable similarities

If you have suggestions to improve the guidelines, you're welcome! :)

Edit: Initially, this thread was only for comparisons between VG and non-VG music, but has been extended to include comparisons between different VGMs.

I don't listen to a lot of non-video game music, so it's hard for me to contribute something, but here's this:

Crypt of the Necrodancer - Crypteque (1-2)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIr4C5Ztlcg

Muse - Uprising
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8KQmps-Sog

(I actually only learned of this one from the comments in the above video, so, umm... yeah.)

What do both Chrono Trigger and Breath of Fire III have in common?

They are both JRPGs and have similar sounding forest themes.

Hi, it's probably easy to miss, but I stealthily modifed the thread title slightly, and added an edit note at the end of the opening post that states that comparing video game music to other video game music is ok now, which should make things easier for you, and others who listen a lot to video game music.

Thanks for the contributions so far, everyone! :)

...and [Super Mario 64] Wing Cap theme (a variant of the invincibility / star item music)

Granted, this is a typical bossa nova rhythm, and Shibayan seems to like bossa nova, but it's still interesting. ^^

Also, the beginning of the original Binding of Isaac credits music is similar to the Hell music in Diablo 1 (vocals at 1:09):

Positive Force from VVVVVV goes well with Guile's Theme.

An obvious, well-done parody by Jake Kaufman:

[Retro City Rampage] Not Mega (intro music)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7wSLM1dmLo

[Mega Man/Rockman 2] Intro music
(also used in the I Wanna Be The Guy intro ^^)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZT9DST_M_g8

-----------------------------------------------

Not sure how similar those are, but that part starting at 0:18 from the following fighting game BGM by SSH always reminds me of Rolento's theme in Street Fighter Alpha/Zero 2 (the part starting at 0:06):

[Shin Koihime†Musou ~Otome Taisen☆Sangokushi Engi~] 城下市場 ("Town Market")
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BCxjuB8aXw
[Street Fighter Alpha/Zero 2] Rolento's theme

F-Zero - Silence
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eklH1GxW36s

Casiopea - Space Road
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPxe3CKUpw8

The beginnings of both songs sound similar.

Nice find! :)

Here's another tune that is similar to the beginning of the F-Zero tune above:
(I checked to make sure the composers are different)

[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time] Inside a House
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaK9OSSOqQM

--------------------------------------

...I'm unsure, but I think the part starting at 0:36 from the following track reminds me of another VGM tune, maybe something from the Final Fantasy series(?). Does anyone have an idea? If I'm right, instrumentation is important here:

[Knights in the Nightmare] Clash with the Fallen Angel Melissa
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j13rckXDFh4

...I also wouldn't be surprised if there are some Eurodance resp. Eurobeat songs that are similar to the following two. Does anyone know something similar?

The part at 0:56 from the "Baroque music" (pun intended) is similar to the file selection theme from the Zelda game:

[Baroque (PS2/Wii remake)] Stagnating Flow
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDscWBATbDA

[Zelda: Ocarina Of Time] File select music
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5Vfm_nB-Og

Edit: Also, the subsequent part from Stagnating Flow starting at 1:15 reminds me of the following Mega Man X tune:

[Mega Man X] Sigma Stage 4
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WytaANSsm0

[Super Mario Galaxy 2] Digga-Leg
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XDwaa_GoOA

...is somewhat similar to:

[La-Mulana] Primitive Dance (original and remake)

That tune reminds me of:

[Phantom Breaker] Dark Agitation (Story BGM)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7oLC_WvaEs

P.S.: I updated my last post to add a Mega Man X comparison
