Best forest music?
- Thread starter PogiJones

One of the most underrated Kirby themes.
It starts pretty cheerful, but then turns into something beautiful.
Came to post this. It's the one that directly comes to mind. This game is a work of art and it has one of the best OSTs of all time.
It's got to be Nier Automata Forest Theme because that game has the best music for every type of level,lol.
Here's a recommendation out of left field.
Guardian Heroes' forest theme (Brave Parade), in all its cheesy synth glory.
Stick with it - it's only 2 minutes long - and you will be rewarded with a guitar solo that feels almost out of place due to how awesome it is.
Damn that solo is amazing, I wish it wasn't so short :(
Edit: dock I played the Saturn demo disc so many times, the forest was the only stage it would let you play. I love this song!

1000x this. One of my favorite game tracks period (and I forgot to post it, oops).
I would also stay a little bit longer on the overmap just to hear this tune play out a couple times. Makes you wanna frolic through a fucking forest.
All the one i wanted to post are already there, so here's an other one :
doesn't sound very foresty, but i love this one too :

Holy Shit YES.
Specially the music it starts when you enter Astranaar.
First one that sounds in this vid.
Thank you. Was scrolling through every post and thought this would be one of the 1st picks. It's an incredible piece of music
Came for this, was disappointed how long I had to scroll before finding it!
Just by hearing this song I can remember them swooping between the trees. One of the best levels on that game and best tracks as well, thank you for sharing and reminding me of it.
My choice for a great forest track (surprised it hasn't been mentioned):
Shenmue II has a short but really meaningful section of the game in the forests of Guilin (China). And like the rest of the game, it's densely packed with A LOT of beautiful music.
These are two of the most representative. A kind of "happy" one:
And another a bit more "sad" or nostalgic (I love the chinese violin solo at the very end):
If you like them, delight yourself with the full 2h hours of music compiled in this wonderful video:
The first half of Shenmue III is supposed to happen in the same location, so I'm really eager to hear the music. The game could end up being trash (it won't), but only for a second set of Guilin music it will be worth it to me.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky - Sky Peak Forest (Nintendo DS)
Sam's Journey - Deep Woods (C64)
Within a Deep Forest (PC)

Excellent choices. Thank you everyone. Here's my pick - and it's from another Saturn classic - Shining the Holy Ark. Man this whole soundtrack is Motoi Sakauraba at his best - brilliant game to boot.
I did. Just said the entire OST instead of posting any links
So many good ones! I love forest settings in games - probably because I grew up in the forest but ever since college life has taken me to different biomes.
This has always been one of my favorites, Mysterious People from Suikoden 3. Such a solemn setting and a pretty heavy section of the story too.

I know, right? Massively underrated soundtrack. I listen to it all the time and it's still of the reasons I launch the game from time to time just to listen to the music and absorb the great backgrounds and visuals (especially the moon grotto).
