My apologies for making the Brinstar theme slightly lower in volume; I forgot to re-edit the music! So you'll have to turn the volume up a little bit after the intro where Samus appears. Mission start music (from 0:00 beginning to 6 seconds in) and an extended cut of the Brinstar music (the opening stage of the game - starting at 0:07 of the video) from the Nintendo classic game Metroid, for Nintendo Entertainment System.

Thanks to the sound composer "Hip" Tanaka, everyone involved in the making of Metroid. Thank you for visiting my page! I got other umm extended music, IDK if that's your thing - but if it is, I got it B-)
