Music List

Overview
Each stage has a song that highlights the theme or type of stage, such as race track music for a race track themed course or an industrial song for a course where you're inside a building. From 1.0 to 1.4u0, there have been different songs that have come and went throughout the game. Our talented music composers (Tyler Rogers, FoxerTails, hPerks) have created songs specifically for Marble Blast STOP and Marble Blast STOP II, as well as there being other songs taken from the public domain or were created by third parties that fit the game while said artists were asked for permission/granted credit for the usage of their songs.

In the Alpha, we saw music by Tyler Rogers, which was then put in the archive when the themes and design of the overall project changed. In the Beta version and the Full 1.0 Version, we saw way more third party tracks that are no longer available (such as house music DJed by Markus Schulz). The usage of these tracks drew criticism for unauthorized reproduction and inclusion of the tracks which the STOP II Team has stated will never happen again. From 1.1 to 1.4u0, all music (including Warm Hands and a Gentle Stab by Akuma Kira) from third party sources is in the public domain, and/or permission was asked to use these songs. FoxerTails' and hPerks' work overrides the total number of 3rd party tracks to this day.

Trivia

 * After BETA and 1.0, many third party tracks were removed to promote originality, to cut down on file sizes, to highlight music created by our wonderful artists (FoxerTails and Perkidos), and to remove various copyrights which should've happened when the modification was being created on day 1.
 * FoxerTails was previously known as Tails19935 for his productions and compositions.
 * "Night Time Installation" by FoxerTails was added for 1.4u0 as a surprise from him and MindsEye due to the new installer being born.
 * "Egyptian Tango" only plays twice during the Margyptian Continuum (Two-Parter) Stages.
 * "World in the Sky" was also known as "Riverside View from Outer Space".
 * hPerks is now known as Perkidos.
 * He left all communities related to the game on the day right when the game released. (July 7, 2018.)
 * Some of hPerks' compositions can be found in other Marble Blast Modifications, but STOP II is where they are most known.
 * Perkidos unfortunately passed away sometime in Late December. He will always be remembered by us all.
 * Beta and 1.0's track files contained the most folder storage of other folders back when these two versions were playable.
 * Tyler Rockers composed music between Alpha and Beta. With a theme change and complete overhaul, they were removed.
 * These tracks will be back in the STOP I Redux.
 * It is unknown where "Beep Beep" and "Xisan" originated from other than being in the Flash Game Library.

Cultural References

 * The "Paintball" track is primarily found in Claxor's 2007 flash game "Paintball: The Game", where you draw white lines to pilot a red paintball to a red box.
 * "Warm Hands and a Gentle Stab" was put under the public domain a few years after Spooky's Jump Scare Mansion released.
 * "Cave" and "Dark Cave" are remixed tracks from Mystery Dungeon Sky/Darkness/Time. They're under fair use due to the nature of their remixes.
 * "Are You Asking for a Challenge?!" is a remixed track from StinkoMan (20X6), from Homestar Runner. It's under fair use due to the nature of the remix.
 * "World in the Sky (Riverside View from Outer Space)" by FoxerTails was inspired by the Sky World levels from Super Mario Sunshine.
 * "California Mall" by FoxerTails was inspired by the indoor shopping mall part from Midway's CALIFORNIA SPEED.
 * "Arctic Seaside" by hPerks was inspired by Seaside Revisited from Marble Blast Platinum.
 * "Warp Factor" by hPerks was inspired by Endurance: The Second from Phil's Soundtrack/PhilsEmpire.
 * The Marble Blast Elite theme was found in Version 1.0 due to a stage that's themed from M.B.E built by Jiquor appearing in this version.
