Music by Matt Johnson, Tom Woodrow and PH
Unfortunately, there's only
one song from Matt Johnson, Tom Woodrow and PH available (as far as I know).
But this song is definitely brilliant. It's played by a real band
on real instruments!
| Title: | Monkey Island Medley |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 3,17 MB / 07:54 min |
| Main style(s): | Atmospheric / Slow Rock / Western step dance ... |
| Description: | A fantastic medley featuring many of our favorite Monkey Island themes in original new ways. It's played by a real band and offers an amazing sound quality. Also, the transitions between the themes are good. I especially like how they arranged the LeChuck theme. Downloading this song is an absolute must. |
| More: | Themes |
The fan songs from Trapezoid can be divided into two major categories: The first two songs are inspired from the great Monkey Island tunes. The other three songs are rather funny ones, which play with words and sentences from Monkey Island.
Trapezoid has a webpage at mp3.com. Besides most of these songs, you can also find other songs that are not related to computer games. You can order a CD from Trapezoid there, but out of legal issues, it does not contain the Monkey Island songs. So, be sure to visit his page too!
Comment from Dominic Armato,
the voice of Guybrush Threepwood, on the Mixnmojo Board: "You rock my world,
Trapezoid!" Well, if that's not a reference!
| Title: | Funky Island |
| Format: | Midi |
| Size/Length: | 20,9 KB / 01:49 min |
| Main style(s): | Funk |
| Description: | A brilliant song which deals with the Monkey Island main theme and the LeChuck theme. Very original. I absolutely recommend you this download. (What's more, since it's a midi-file, it can be downloaded very quickly!) |

| Title: | Monkey Island 2 - Techno Medley |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 9,03 MB / 03:56 min |
| Main style(s): | Techno |
| Description: | Yet another great song... If you liked the (small) Funky Island midi above, it might be worth doing this huge 9 MB-download as well. The song features nine(!) great Monkey Island themes! |

| Title: | Murray Mix + Murray Sugar Rush Mix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 3,10 MB / 03:23 min + 1,55 MB / 01:41 |
| Main style(s): | Parody |
| Description: | A nice
song, featuring the (original) voices of Murray and Guybrush. Very
funny. Well worth the 3 MB download!!
The Sugar Rush Mix is actually the same song, just much faster... which makes the whole thing almost even funnier! Have you ever wondered how "Buahaha" could sound in "fast play"? |
| More: | / |
| Title: | Whoop |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 1,55 MB / 01:41 min |
| Main style(s): | Parody |
| Description: | You all
know the treasure Big Whoop, that turned out to be a carnival?
Well, if you have ever visited the old Scummbar posting board *R.I.P.* or the new Mixn'Mojo Posting board, you might have noticed some strange people "whooping" around all the time there. Well, this is a song to honor this strange phenomenon. |

| Title: | Yikes |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 3,78 MB / 04:07 min |
| Main style(s): | Spoken Text + reggae background |
| Description: | This is not really what you would call a song. It's rather a spoken story with a little background music. Be warned, even Trapezoid himself described this song as "disturbing" ;-) |
| More: | Song lyrics |
| Title: | Sam & Max Disco |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 3,08 MB / 03:21 min |
| Main style(s): | Disco |
| Description: | If you liked the Murray song (see above), you're going to love this one too. It's a disco song composed by Trapezoid (not game related), mixed with cool and rhythmic dialogue lines of Sam and Max. It's a lot of fun. |
| More: | / |
| Title: | Day of the Sound FX |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 1,46 MB / 02:41 min |
| Main style(s): | Typical traditional computer music |
| Description: | This song "plays" with the famous sounds you heard in Day of the Tentacle. The music themes are not from the game, but you hear a lot of sound effects that were used in the game (for example the toilet). |
| More: | / |
| Title: | Le Chuck is Dumb |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 2,39 MB / 02:36 min |
| Main style(s): | Techno |
| Description: | This song is mainly an arrangement of the very famous LeChuck theme from the Monkey Island games (although you can also hear the Jojo theme for a short moment)... And for all of you who feel they are talented singers: Go ahead and sing! You can find the song lyrics under "More". And if you think you cannot sing: Never mind... Guybrush was tone deaf too! |
| More: | Lyrics |
| Title: | Flahh |
| Format: | Midi |
| Size/Length: | 12,6 KB / 02:09 min |
| Main style(s): | March |
| Description: | Well, theoretically, this song hasn't anything to do with LucasArts music. It is the long theme from Trapezoids fangame M'st'calities. But, since Trapezoid is a huge fan of LucasArts adventures, the song has definitely been influenced by LucasArts games... if you try hard, you can even discover some bits of LucasArts themes. It's a nice song, and since it takes only 12,6 kilobytes to download, you should absolutely give it a try! |

If you ever wanted to make a party where you could dance to disco-music from LucasArts games, these songs should fit your needs. Bart Klepka has managed to remix some original tunes to a new listening experience. The songs manage to keep the charm of the original game music, but add some new elements to it.
On Bart Klepka's webpage,
you can find more music-remixes from other great computer games by other
developers.
| Title: | Anna's theme - midnight mix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 4,28 MB / 04:40 min |
| Main style(s): | Drum'n'Bass / Orchestral |
| Description: | The song uses the original theme (from Outlaws) with a fast drums-rythm. Besides, some very atmospheric background sounds have been added. Cool arrangement of a brilliant theme. |
| More: | Credits |
| Title: | Create - Dreamer Mix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 3,80 MB / 04:08 min |
| Main style(s): | Orchestral / Electronic |

| Title: | Jojo - Club Mix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 3,71 MB / 04:03 min |
| Main style(s): | Dance / Techno |

| Title: | Dark Forces - Victory Class Mix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 6,22 MB / 06:47 min |
| Main style(s): | Techno / Trance |
| Description: | A cool remix of the Dark Forces tunes. By the way, did you know that Dark Forces did not "only" use the Star Wars themes by John Williams, but that Clint Bajakian added some really original tunes to the game? |
| More: | Credits |
| Title: | Sam & Max - Freelance Mix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 4,26 MB / 05:02 min |
| Main style(s): | Jazz / Electronica |
| Description: | This mix does not only deal with one theme from Sam&Max, but contains some of the coolest themes from the whole game. It's a lot of fun! |
| More: | Themes, Credits |
| Title: | Barbery Coast - Booty Mix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 5,40 MB / 05:53 min |
| Main style(s): | Instrumental / Breakbeat |
| Description: | Yet another fantastic, atmospheric and highly professional Mix from Bart Klepka. The big size is by far compensated by the great quality and the length of the song! |
| More: | Credits |
| Title: | Imperial Fighter - Reinforcement Mix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 3,88 MB / 04:14 min |
| Main style(s): | NewAge / TribalBeat |
| Description: | After his Dark Forces remix, Bart Klepka has once again arranged the music of a classic Start Wars game: This time, he remixed a cue from Tie Fighter. Although completely in MIDI, LucasArts has made a great job in combining some famous Star Wars themes from John Williams (e.g. the Imperial March) with new and original ideas. And Bart Klepka has once again created a great remix of the whole experience. |

I don't know much about AmIEvil,
I've only heard that one Monkey Island arrangement from him until now.
But wow, this is really a great arrangement... he must be a really
good musicians. I've found the song on OverClocked
ReMix, a cool page with tons of remixes from all sort of games.
| Title: | Monkey Island - AmIEvil remix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 1,86 MB / 02:01 min |
| Main style(s): | Classic / Celtic |
| Description: | This is a very beautiful arrangement of the main theme from Monkey Island. It is ambient and has an amazing sound quality (sounds like real instruments, and not like cheap synthesizers)! It uses the main theme, but also has some amazing improvisations! Since it's a very small download, I really have to recommend you this one! |

Just like Trapzoid, Logan
Whitehurst also has a page at MP3.com,
and I really recommand you to visit his page,
since, besides the Monkey Island fansong you can download here, it also
contains tons of other cool MP3s.
| Title: | Isle of Monkeys |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 1,75 MB / 01:54 min |
| Main style(s): | Slow March |
| Description: | This song does not use any of the themes from Monkey Island, but it is kept in a similar style. According to the composer, it's a "little instrumental tribute to Monkey Island, one of the best series of games ever". The song reminds me a little bit of the theme from governor Phatt, but also a little bit of the carnival music from Sam and Max ;-) |
| More: | / |
Among some other compositions,
Slybo
has also written some music dedicated to the brilliant games from LucasArts.
His songs don't use any game music, but use original music combined with
dialogues from the games.
| Title: | Sam and Max Mix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 1,10 MB / 01:35 min |
| Main style(s): | Disco |
| Description: | This song uses some funny dialogues from the games. All in all, it is a lot of fun to listen to this MP3... it reminds us very well of the typical Sam and Max feeling! (By the way, the "It's been really... educational" at the end makes me think a little bit at another fan song ;-) |
| More: | / |
| Title: | Full Throttle Mix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 1,87 MB / 02:43 min |
| Main style(s): | Rock |
| Description: | I wonder why no one else had the idea of doing a Full Throttle mix before. Well, finally, we have one now! It uses a Full Throttle like background music, combined with a long monologue by Ben. This monologue could perhaps best be described with "Ben's life philosophy". As you can easily imagine, it quite reflects Ben's cool carelessness. |

Axel
Melzener also seems to have very good music skills, and his song is
in a great quality... sounds like a real orchestra! It would be cool to
see more songs from Axel in future ;-)
| Title: | Crete Labyrinth |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 2,18 MB / 02:22 min |
| Main style(s): | Classic |
| Description: | This arrangement stays relatively close to the original game music. But it adds some very ambient variations and is in an excellent sound quality. The instruments just sound soo deep! Yet another fansong you just have to download! |
| More: | / |
Batu
Eritenel's songs are always very special! They don't only feature great
tunes from our beloved LucasArts games, but they are always new, unique
and stylish arrangements!
| Title: | Barber Mix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 1,24 MB / 01:21 min |
| Main style(s): | Native |
| Description: | This great song is based on the barbershop theme from The Curse of Monkey Island. It is very ambient and relaxing, and the use of flutes reminds a little bit of native Indian music. |
| More: | / |
| Title: | Scumm Bar for Pirates |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 4,37 MB / 03:11 min |
| Main style(s): | Ambient |
| Description: | This is an ambient and very melodic arrangement of the Scumm Bar theme (from Escape from Monkey Island). Once again, Batu Eritenel has managed to transform game music into a very different style of his own. |
| More: | / |
| Title: | Monkey 4 menu remix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 1,34 MB / 01:28 min |
| Main style(s): | Disco |
| Description: | This is an arrangement of the menu music of Escape from Monkey Island. It features a groovy percussion beat and is really stylish. |

Do I really have to introduce
you to Highland Productions?
They are the site for LucasArts midis... Telraium
and Serge always did a great
work with ripping, mixing and arranging our favorite songs from classic
and new LucasArts games. (Over 90% of the midis in our Download Section
are from Highland Productions, by the way!)
After a long break, they
finally started producing new remixes... with the great quality we can
expect from Highland Productions.
| Title: | Underground Tunnels Remix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 9,04 MB / 09:52 min |
| Main style(s): | Classic |
| Description: | This remix is based on the Underground Tunnels music in Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge. The remix sounds very symphonic. The warm orchestral sound is enhanced by a real beautiful flute, played by Invisibelle. The big file size is compensated by a really long playing time (almost 10 minutes), so it's definitely worth the download. |
| More: | Credits |
| Title: | Governor Phatt's Room Remix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 2,05 MB / 02:13 min |
| Main style(s): | Classic |
| Description: | This is a slow, orchestral version of the music from Governor Phatt's room in Monkey Island 2: Le Chuck's Revenge. The file size is not so big as the last time, so you really should give it a try! |
| More: | Credits |
| Title: | Sam and Max: Greetings from USA! |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 1,05 MB / 01:18 min |
| Main style(s): | Jazz |
| Description: | This is the song that plays when you drive around on the map ("Greetings from USA") in Sam and Max Hit the Road. It uses nice samples and sounds much better than the original MIDI-FM. |
| More: | Credits |
| Title: | Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis: Crab Raft Remix |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 2,68 MB / 02:55 min |
| Main style(s): | Classic |
| Description: | This song is one of my personal favorites. Already the original cue in the game (simple MIDI format at that time) made a great contribution to the mysterious atmosphere of the scene (rowing on a crab raft through the canals of Atlantis). But now, this digital version of the cue sounds even better than in the original game: Telarium managed to achieve a great orchestration with warm samples, and once again, the song is enhanced by enchanting flute playing from Invisibelle! |
| More: | Comments from Clint Bajakian and Hal Barwood / Credits |
| Title: | The Curse of Monkey Island: Rollercoaster of Death |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 5,13 MB / 06:23 min |
| Main style(s): | Classic |
| Description: | This is the interactive "symphony on LeChuck's theme" you get to hear towards the end of The Curse of Monkey Island. To provide us with the best possible sound quality, Telarium hasn't recorded the music directly from the game, but has built up a combination of several short cues ripped with Scumm Revisited. Besides, the song ends with a very special cue: it is the music you hear when LeChuck is buried under the ice (arranged by Serge) |
| More: | Credits |
Ben
Whatsisname, known from The
Kickstand (a nice Full Throttle fanpage), has also produced a cool
LucasArts related fansong. Now, I could continue to talk about Ben for
hours... but why don't you simply try out his song?
| Title: | Monkey Kombat |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 2,94 MB / 03:12 min |
| Main style(s): | Techno |
| Description: | This song actually doesn't use music from a LucasArts game. So, why is this song featured here on iMuse Island? Well, the music is from Mortal Kombat, mixed up with noises and dialogues from the Monkey Kombat scene in Escape from Monkey Island. Very nice indeed! |

Some time ago, Mameluke
was making up a Grim Fandango CD for himself, and decided to add some new
tracks to the ones that are on the official soundtrack. So he used ScummRevisted
and managed to mix up a few "medley tracks" containing some nice themes
that were not published on the official CD.
| Title: | Lola's Last |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 1,61 MB / 01:45 min |
| Main style(s): | Classic |
| Description: | This song contains the cues that you hear near and on the tower where Lola dies. I always loved these tunes, since they are very atmospheric. Especially the lonely saxophone really contributes a lot to the mood. |

| Title: | Up the roof |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 2,31 MB / 02:30 min |
| Main style(s): | Classic |
| Description: | This is a medley of the cues you hear while climbing the ties, and both on the lower roof (near the office windows) and on the top roof (near the pigeons' nest). The medley ends with the short cue that is played when the pigeons finally fly away. |

| Title: | The Edge of the World |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 1,56 MB / 03:12 min |
| Main style(s): | Classic / Jazz |
| Description: | Basically this is a mix of a bunch of the themes in Year 3, cumulating with the Manny and Meche music and then Dom's theme taking it over. |

Sukotto
Hanei was so nice to send me the following midis... thanks a lot!
| Title: | |
| Format: | MIDI |
| Size/Length: | 33,8 KB / 01:41 min |
| Main style(s): | Latin |
| Description: | This is a latin arrangement of the famous LeChuck theme from the Monkey Island games. It's really groovy, and you can listen to it immediately, since the file is very short. |

| Title: | |
| Format: | MIDI |
| Size/Length: | 45,6 KB / 02:53 min |
| Main style(s): | Latin |
| Description: | Sukotto describes this song as "the closest representation to the Cantina song that I could make". Check it out for yourself, I'd say it's pretty close ;-) |

I've found the following
song, arranged by Eduardo
Gouveia from Portugal, in the fan section from The
World of Monkey Island... By the way: this site also contains other
great Monkey Island fan art, such as drawings, comics, novels and more.
I really recommend you to check it out!
| Title: | Monkey Island Rocks |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 4,67 MB / 05:06 min |
| Main style(s): | Rock |
| Description: | This song seems to be played by a real band, with drums, electric guitars and e-bass. As you can guess by the title, it is based on the Monkey Island main theme, and yes, it really rocks! It's really worth the download... By the way, is it just me, or does the beginning sound a little bit like the music you hear during the Runaway trailer? (Runaway is a very promising adventure, developed by the Spanish Pendulo Studios...) |

The older Star Wars
games featured some excellent, original compositions (based on John Williams'
famous themes). Steve
created some medleys by listening very carefully to the midi-songs from
those games and by reentering the themes, note by note, into a music programm.
The results of this work are some high-quality MP3s that feature some of
the greatest cues from the classic Star Wars games.
| Title: | Glory of the Empire |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 2,92 MB / 03:11 min |
| Main style(s): | Classic |
| Description: | This is a very enjoyable, orchestral remix of some great Tie Fighter themes. Tie Fighter used the "Imperial March" from John Williams, but it also contained great original music (in midi-format). This remix brings it all to a new, digital quality. |
| More: | / |
| Title: | |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 9,04 MB / 06:35 min |
| Main style(s): | Classic |
| Description: | Dark Forces used one new March for General Mohc that is played during the opening credits of the game, and Bajakian took that theme and used it in different ways throughout the game, creating an adventurous march for the last level, as well as making it major for positive music at the end. Steve used all three of those variations in this pretty long medley. |

Humpert
Matthew (known in our forums as Mattness) has submitted us some nice
remixes. Check them out now!
| Title: | The Arc Hammer |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 5,49 MB / 06:00 min |
| Main style(s): | Classic |
| Description: | This is a medley of the Arc Hammer level in Dark Forces. It starts with the cargo transfer from the Executor to the Arc Hammer, goes into the normal level music, jumps to some of the best fighting music from the level, back to the normal music, and ends with the music from the fight with the Phase 3 Dark Trooper. All of the note entry was done in Finale Allegro 2000, the patches came from a Roland XP-80 with Orchestral 2 Expansion, and the final mixing, stereo effects, and reverb were done in Cakewalk Home Studio XL. |

| Title: | Sam and Max - Pleasantly Understated Credit Sequence |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 2,67 MB / 01:57 min |
| Main style(s): | Jazz |
| Description: | Here's a remix of the Sam and Max credit sequence using a Roland XP-80 and Cakewalk Home Studio 2002. It is pretty similar to the audio-track featured on the official game CD, so a download should be interesting especially to the owners of the disc version of the game. |

| Title: | Tie Fighter Opening |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 5,31 MB / 03:52 min |
| Main style(s): | Classic |
| Description: | Here's a remix of the Tie Fighter opening music. It's quite similar to the music in the game, but played on pretty good synths. It's always nice to be reminded of the great score this game had. |

BuXY was so kind to submit
us a remix of the Zak McKracken main theme.
| Title: | Zak McCracken (BuXY C64 remix) -NEW- |
| Format: | MP3 |
| Size/Length: | 1,77 MB / 01:33 min |
| Main style(s): | Rock |
| Description: | All the melodic instruments were digitized from the original .SID file, channel by channel, and a little tuned up with FX for nicer sound. All percussion has been replaced by a (Reason) drumset, because the original sounded quite lame. |

Well, this is my humble try
to write a fansong too. I have written this song especially for iMuse Island...
but you may use it on other sites too if you tell where it comes from and
by whom it is. The song is quite simple, but I hope that you like it! Let
me know what you think about it.
| Title: | Chuckie's Band |
| Format: | MIDI |
| Size/Length: | 32 KB / 04:25 min |
| Main style(s): | Diverse |
| Description: | This song is based on the LeChuck theme from The Secret of Monkey Island. It is playing around with the theme and uses it in different ways. The song is quite long, but since it's midi, it can be downloaded very quickly. |
