Both of sky island's. They are really one of the few "happy" tracks in the game. The game really needs more of that because it reminds me of wonder boy on the sega genesis

Inerestesting... I've never heard some of these before and I believe I've been to most of the different floors. Slime's is JK, Undead is the Graveyards.

My favorite is Wildwoods, it makes me think of Alice in Wonderland.

So much music. need to hear it all. *excited gasps*

My Favorites:

1) Battle Music 1 (You know things are tense if this has been playing for 5+ minutes.)
2) Sky islands (both ambient and active)
3) Boss 1
4) Title
5) Subtown

With stage music I mean the music that plays on any given floor, and thus not counting any of the battle music..

Oops. The best stage music...

1) Gremlin (first time I've heard it. Sound heroic.)
2) sky islands active and ambient
3) castle active and ambient
4) slime

Boss Theme + Wildwoods

The boss theme of Spiral Knights is probably the best piece of music in the game, it allows you to feel a sense of despair and courage at the same time as if you're the last one alive (Which is sometimes the case).

As for regular stage music, probably wildwoods.

You're missing the best one, Main Theme.

As stated; only stage music. The main theme is my fav to, but it's not a stage song.

I will let this go for a while longer, then I will count "votes" and add them to the main post.
So to make this fair.. please pick ONE favorite. (I'll add this line to the main post)

I personally really like the slime music. The constant use of seconds and a minor key really help to give it a circus-esque feel.

Anyway, I have no idea how you pulled these out of the game, but the sound quality is amazing. Great job.

Actually, the main theme is the music for the tutorial level, so that makes it stage music.

...please pick ONE favorite.

That's hard! >.< umm... I'd have to say I like the sky islands active stage music the most.

And what about the line "With stage music I mean the music that plays on any given floor, and thus not counting any of the battle music.." is not understandable?

That line makes your vote invalid.. Sorry..

Flashback!

Construct, because when I listened to it here I realized just what a brilliant callback it is to this classic theme: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9-7uLg-DZU - which fits absolutely perfectly for a Construct level!

Freeze.

I love the Freeze song, it's so mysterious and calming. Not to mention the snow that's in basically every level with this song adds to its mysterious calming effect. And for some reason, it reminds me of Final Fantasy 12's Paramina Rift.

I don't think you have this one, if you do it's not by the name on the page:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YWuF6_HU8E . Especially starting at 0:37

When I go to a floor and this starts playing, I feel like "Uh oh, [crap] just got real." It seems to play in the ones that have a dragon on their icon randomly... no idea what it represents.

That is the main theme.. and

That is the main theme.. and no, I dont have that one, becouse its only played on two occasions.

1. On the Crash Site stage, the very first stage you play. And since that stage is only a one timer I dont count that as a regular stage, since you cannot do it again (without making a new knight.
2. At the big battle right before the Jelly King, making it also a battle theme..

So this song never plays when you enter a floor..

It is also played in Briar

It is also played in Briar Bone Barrage (yay) and Stygian Steeds (ouch), but while it plays through most of those stages, it doesn't start playing until after hitting a party button, so it's STILL battle music.

And out of the stage music, I think I like Sky Islands Day Action best.

Edit to add: Hey, I just noticed that there's a new song in the music folder of the game, "Munitions". I'm assuming that it'll be future boss stage music.
