Original soundtrack recorded with live instruments. Grooviest thing I've heard in years.

Man, TTD music was the only management game that made me HYPE to get down to managing.

Like I vividly remember Sim City 3000 music as well, but that game was more chill, like a sunny winter day.

TTD was like a spring day where you plan you call the pinkertons to bust some unions while smoking a cigar.

My mother's favorite game was Sim City 3000, and that soundtrack is still one of the best and my favorites. Such a groovy Jazz with variety. I'd love to find other artists like Jerry Martin did that soundtrack, most smooth jazz is too cheesy for me.

Jerry Martin's awesome!

You can get more of his music on his web site Boom Bam Boom:

That’s genuinely the first time I’ve heard it. Unfortunately I could never get TT midi working with my sound card. Sound effects played just fine, but I just couldn’t get midi audio working on TT.

I really don’t miss those days of trying dozens of different autoexec.bat / config.sys configurations for each and every game just to get the basics working.
