    How Soichi Terada makes this wonderfully extravagant music is beyond me and any of my senses. Standing ovation.

    The Ape Escape soundtracks are half of what makes those games amazing. I love you Soichi Terada, you pretty much got me into electronic music with the Ape Escape soundtracks.

    I'm restarting the original Ape Escape after listening to these sounds again. Only 47.9% on the save file, no big deal

    The original Ape Escape, best video game soundtrack ever. That was the best part of the whole game.
