Since Melodies from Mars is supposed to be video game music or something, I'd say it would fit DAMN good in an Earthbound. If you've ever heard the FANTASTIC soundtrack to this game (I'm listening to it on Super Jukebox), you'll know it's goofy as hell, and cool as a cucumber. Just reminds me of Melodies from Mars.
Har har, Earthbound tracks always make me grin, this is great stuff from a great game.

Well, the soundtrack is cool as ice. Cool with a capital C, dude. Totally awesome, man. Sounds like something RDJ would dabble in, just to be goofy.
And Melodies from Mars would make a PERFECT soundtrack to an Earthbound game, I swear.

I always felt that Dr. Andonuts had an nice experimental ambient sound to it.

it'd be great if somone created an earthbound/mother 2 soundfont..
I love those weird clicky clacky drum sounds. and whatever they do with that quick stereo delay shit.
I don't really know what I'm talking about since I haven't played the game in quite a while.

ok, I'm sorry this might be totally obvious but it's been bothering me for a while now.. who is that in your avatar?? It looks like a mix between Steve Coogan, Bronson Pinchot and the guy from Dead or Alive.

it's the campy singer tiny tim.
speaking of avatars, you should check out the stephanie tanner project. You have to either click on 'stp' or 'stp 1.5'. (it won't let me link directly to it.) It's a some funny/cruel prank where they make some poor fools think they are exchanging love letters with the actress who played stephanie tanner of full house 'fame'.

Yeah we're getting a new Earthbound soundtrack in Mother 3, and we so blessed.
On topic, Melodies from Mars... eh, years later I don't think the similarity is too striking, to be honest. I think younger me was kind of off base. Earthbound's music is so singular that nothing really feels like it. Some things manage to SOUND a bit like it, and employ synths or pads or something that might harken back to that warm, ethereal Earthbound sound, but it's more a surface thing. After listening to it for 10 years, nothing really holds a candle to it. I guess Melodies from Mars or Solvent or some of the beatless Freescha tracks sound like a really poor man's Earthbound.

Tiny Tim.. I'll have to look into that... thank you for clearing this up. :-)
Also, thanks for the link. I actually have encounted this site before on various stephanie tanner related internet searches. Amusing, yes, but more cruel in my estimation. Being somewhat of a fanboy throughout my early high school years I sympathized more with the victims of this prank than with the perpetrators.. It's funny you know, while I would have laughed at the poor bastard in any other case, in this one I remember feeling more 'righteous' indignation at the people who tortured these poor souls. A double standard I guess, but it certainly testifies to the power of pathetic parasocial relationships.
Regardless, thanks for the heads up :-) .. and, on topic: Earthbound was a strange, strange game. In some odd way it originally struck me as occult.. in a cool way. I think it had something to do with the psychic girl.
