=== [[Action Adventure]] ===

** ''[[The Legend of Zelda (video game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'' did this with its [[Nightmare Fuel|creepy]] final dungeon music.

*** The dungeon proceeding that fight also plays a remix of Ganon's Theme and the {{spoiler|Hyrule Castle}} theme from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|The Legend of Zelda a Link To T He Past]]'', to pretty much the same effect.

*** Each fight against {{spoiler|Zant}} consists of techno remixes of past bosses' themes.

**** And [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|bongos!]]

*** And just prior to that, the maritime battle with the Bellum-possessed Ghost Ship is accompanied by a sinister remix of the overworld music.

** In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|Wind Waker]]'', the "stormy night" theme was a combination of the the overworld theme and Ganondorf's theme.

*** Also, a panicked remix of Zelda's Lullaby, when {{spoiler|Zelda tries to get her body back and fails repeatedly}}.

*** The [[Theme Music Power-Up]] during boss battles in ''TP'' is a remix of the Hyrule Field theme. Also, some bosses(especially Stallord) use remixes of "Dinosaur Boss Battle" from ''Ocarina of Time''.

* The boss fights against [[Brainwashed and Crazy]] Richter Belmont in ''[[Castlevania: Symphony of the Night]]'' and Richter's ghost in ''Portrait of Ruin'' are both set to remixes of Richter's theme from ''Rondo of Blood''. Also used in ''Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow'', where the stage music "Heart of Fire" from the old NES game was turned into an [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiSo9yL59Pw awesome boss theme].

* In ''[[Ratchet and Clank Up Your Arsenal]]'', the battle theme for Courtney Gears is a remix of her music video "Death to Squishies".

** In Trials and Tribulations, when you're presenting the very last piece of evidence, a remix of the Cornered theme from the first game will play with an added drum track.

 

* ''[[Homestuck]]'': The standard "Harlequin" theme is remixed into "Harleboss" for John's battle against the Crude Ogres.

** And then {{spoiler|[[Monster Clown|Gamzee]] steals the theme in a [[Dark Reprise]] of his own.}}
