The classic trilogy
The soundtracks for the first four games in the series were composed by Stewart Copeland of The Police fame.
- Dark Passage. Terrifying level, but amazingly catchy music that just screams "Autobots Rock Out".
- Fireworks Factory, fitting The Matrix-esque skills shown by Greta, is just as action-packed as the theme itself.
- Gnasty's Loot. This music perfectly embodies the stage's "You've pretty much reached One Hundred Percent Completion, Spyro. But it's not over, you're almost there: your final stretch is going to be fun." kind of feeling.
- Dark Hollow simply cannot... not be mentioned: despite its name, it's an amazingly calm theme for a nighttime stage, and almost manages to evoke some kind of "summer nights" feeling.
- No Wizard Peak? Shame on you, please! This kickass BGM, just like Gnasty's Loot above, has a very "Let's have fun!" feeling.
- Metropolis, with its very "welcome to the future"-esque feeling, and Sunny Beach as well.
- Even more Spyro the Dragon music goodness includes Lofty Castle, a whimsical, yet "dangerous-feeling" theme, and Haunted Towers, which does pretty much the same.
- Ripto's boss music in Spyro 2. Which, for some strange reason, was altered for the PAL release; The tune stayed the same, but the Ominous Latin Chanting was gone. Observe.
- The main theme of Spyro the Dragon, heard on the title screen, and its moody remix heard in Toasty and the Gnorc Gnexus.
- The credits theme for the trilogy is the same across all three games, and is particularly catchy as well as helping to tie all the adventures together. The Year of the Dragon credits, with the classic theme, are particularly bittersweet, given what happened next.
- You can't beat Sunny Flight, Sunny Flight beats you!
- The music of Breeze Harbor sounds similar to the Beast Makers world.
- Within Breeze Harbor, the song that plays during the trolley mission sneaks in a remix of the first game's theme song about a minute in.
- Harbor Speedway!
- Buzz's Dungeon from Year of the Dragon.
The games released between the classic and The Legend of Spyro trilogies
- Season of Flame has Volcano Vaults.
- Spyro: Attack of the Rhynocs has the Rhynocs 'n' Clocks theme, the theme that plays during Sgt. Byrd's missions, the Chateau Ripto theme, Ripto's battle theme, the Byrd Barracks theme and of course the Main Menu theme. And also the Yeti Serengeti theme and the song that plays when you are inside a cave.
- Cloud 9 from Enter the Dragonfly.
The Legend of Spyro trilogy
- The credits theme of Dawn of the Dragon is glorious, and especially fitting thanks to the ending. It's also pretty emotional for those fans who have been around for the last ten or eleven years of the game. There is an open door somehow it seems so familiar, we have been here before indeed... Damn.
- Gaul's theme from The Eternal Night was pretty badass, and fitting, for an ape king with dual swords and an eye laser. Here are both of his themes from the console version. [1] [2]
- Twilight Falls.
