We all know that most of GT6's songs are terrible. But, did you notice any menu song or race song that was really good to your ears?

Personally, I would pick:
Menu: Yuki Oike- White Out
Race: daiki kasho- Place In This World
 
Absolutely none of the songs in GT6 interest me...

Except for this.



It's one of the menu music songs, and the build up (starts at 2:34) at the end is just epic!
 
Personaly I think that just about every single piece of music in GT6 is utter garbage but there's always a glimer of hope - one good tune by Wolfmother; Highway. Thank god for the option to add your own music - on the occasions that it works!!!
 
I disagree with the OP, because not all agree with the OP. Not all of GT6's songs are that terrible.

Only those made by daiki kasho are great when it comes to racing songs. Preferably from daiki, I like:
  • Day to Live (which is GT5's ending song and I'm glad they've kept this song)
  • Surviv3 (which is GT5 Prologue's theme)
  • We Are One (GT6's ending theme and this song really fits Kazunori Yamauchi's race in the 24 Hours in Nurburgring 2013 race)
  • All My Life (I prefer the one with the awesome and kickass intro seen in the opening movie, not the one from the in-game OST even though it's good on its own...)
    It's this one as searched up on YT:

    I used the YT to MP3 converter and put it in my USB SLS AMG which of course came as part of my GT6 Asia-exclusive pre-order.
  • It's All About You (My most fav song from daiki since GT4)
  • 5OUL ON DISPLAY (This is also the pre-race preparation theme for the Super License Endurance races asides from returning from GT5)
  • AL1V3
  • EDGE OF THE WORLD (2012 GT ASIA championship Mix)
  • Place in this world
  • Looking for you
  • TURBO (The song reminded me of Obsure off the GT3 soundtrack for some reason; must be the guitar riffs...)

Then from Masahiro Andoh, we have his GT5 Prologue and GT5 versions of Moon Over The Castle. I liked the opening part of GT5 Prologue version, but I like GT5 version better. Glad these were played after and before the GT World Championship final IA race respectively, and I'm glad I've won these two songs upon winning that race alongside daiki's We Are One.

I also want to determine the song name and the artist who did it for the Novice class pre-race music which had that J-Rock feel...

Other in-race rock songs I like are:
  • Burn Out and Invincible by Nittoku Inoue (I like Burn Out more though)
  • Washed Up by Bad Sports
  • Highway by Wolfmother (ROADTRIP!
For the Dance & Electronic genre (some of it are also Menu music):
  • Black Mist, Flying Easy, and The Call by MAKOTO
  • Maelstrom and The New Black by Roll The Dice (the theme song of the Lunar Exploration mission Special Event)
  • Right After The Break by Taku Yoshioka feat. YAMATO
  • Pearl's Girl by Underworld
  • Over There (Bingo) by The Egg
Now for the menu music:
For the Bossanova genre:
  • Club Curacao by ytbunit
For the Jazz genre:
  • Brooklyn Bridge by Daisuke Kawai
  • Afterglow and Mesmerism by Satoshi Bando
  • Mr. Svensson's Coffeebreak in Heaven, Nostalgic Rain, and Serenade for the Travelers by Taku Yabuki
  • Dirty Cat Blues, Slow Life With Sunshine, and Time To Rest by Yu Manabe
  • Gently, The Moon Always Watches You, Get on!!!, Night birds, and The power of GT by Yudai Satoh
For the Lounge genre:
  • Lotus in dam by Akimasa Yamada (prismedia)
  • The hat flew away by wind by annayamada
  • Cone Pone Tone by FilFla
  • Be At Home, Don't Kick Yourself, From The East to The West, and Take A Break by Isamu Ohira (these were in past GTs, specifically GT2 and GT3)
  • Easy Drive by Keiji Inai (the first menu song I've heard when it was my first time playing GT6); also I'd like to add his other works Sunset Breeze and Whispering Wind
  • Casino Drive, Dream World, Electric Sky, Juicy Funk Roots, Like A Bird, and Marshland by KEMMEI
  • After The Rain, Boogle Back, Journey to the One, New Beginning, Quick Slick, Rising, and The Trip by MAKOTO
  • Vis by mergrim (I agree with SkyThon here; wanna race with me sometime, SkyThon?)
  • Gurney's Eagle by Naoki "naotyu-" Chiba
  • Keep The Faith by Shinji Akita
  • A slowly day, Another Planet, and Let me see your mind by Tyme.
  • Age of Aquarius and ALONY by Yuki Oike
  • 8va Curves, Bevel Gearing, and Exponential TimeLine by Yuto Takei (Glad 8va Curves from GT5 remained!)
And that's it for me...!

Note: I'm using GT6's Library section right now to do this for I have a tendency to forget... And sorry if it's long. Just as much as I like a wide variety of cars in my GT6 garage, I like a wide variety of music too!

But I do respect those who think otherwise, as I too like to put my own music in my PS3 and use them as my GT6 OST just in case anyone doesn't like the music offered in-game. We can start by downloading MP3s of awesome racing tunes like daiki kasho's five GT3 A-Spec OSTs (Glowl, Mirage, Obscure, Sky Scraper, and Strike Breaker) for starters.
 
Aaah, I forgot that GT6 included 5OUL ON DISPLAY. That's a decent song with some surprisingly well written lyrics.

Personaly I think that just about every single piece of music in GT6 is utter garbage but there's always a glimer of hope - one good tune by Wolfmother; Highway. Thank god for the option to add your own music - on the occasions that it works!!!

If your user BGM is acting up (by occasionally randomly deciding to play the game's default BGM) like you sort of noted, there's a trick to stop it doing it you know? You go into the place where your photo's/replays are stored, go down to the music list, go into the racing BGM playlist and delete everything. I'm just making assumptions on your situation (which may not be rightfully placed) of course, but still.
 
Yeah i've done that - so when it decides not to play my music it plays nothing at all haha!!

Oh yeah, I had that at one point too. Though it seemed more like the game being angry at me rather than it getting it wrong. I did a race where I only placed 2nd (AI had way overpowered cars on better tires). So to (supposedly) teach the AI a lesson I came back with a massively overpowered car just to make sure I win. The game didn't like that, so it refused to play my music. :lol:
 
Haha, I had the opposite earlier: I entered the 500pp Touring car race that allows upto 600 (silly rules!!) in a 445pp Prius TC! Monstered everything up until I got into 3rd place but the lead 2 cars were a BMW M3 GTR and a BMW M3 GT2 '11. Finished about 8 seconds off them at Grand Valley but all through the event it was silent. Re-ran it in a stock Megane Trophy and it decided to be kind and play my music - I won! I would like to think my choice in music distracted the AI due to it not being their taste but I think it's far more likely that a Megane Trophy is superior in every way to a Prius TC !!:lol:
 
How did you guys get some of these songs? I don't have EDGE OF THE WORLD, Turbo, and a few others in the gallery. Do I unlock them at a certain point of the game?
 
For me, I would have to say:
Xth Avenue, and Exponential TimeLine (Yuto Takei), Vis (mergrim), Blue Moon (KEMMEI), Smoker's Lament (Ryo Sonoda), Black Mist (MAKOTO), and Calm Clam (Tyme.).

I was kinda suprised that they included some of the GTPSP menu music in GT6, such as Moz, One Blue Spaceshore, and Playing in 4D. (aM).
Oh, and also 8va Curves.
These are the songs I generally like to listen to the most. Others such as daiki kasho is just something I listen occasionally.

I'm pretty sure it's just a glitch. A similar problem occured to me when after getting the ending movie unlocked, it doesn't appear in the gallery section (I'm not sure if anyone has had that problem, too).
~ENDURANCEGUY
I think I got mine after I won the last International A race, which of course is the GT World Championship. I won first place using the Audi R18 15th Anniversary Edition, which is a LeMans-worthy car.
I had the achievement, but didn't get the movie (the short one), until I won the last IA race...
 
GT6 is the first in the series that the playlist is almost entirely forgettable, but at the same time I find that I'm not pruning the playlist like I have since GT3, which usually resulted in 4-6 songs total. A few noteworthy ones, obviously, but nothing I can pull out aside from Soul on Display and the opening themes.

I totally agree with daiki kasho's songs. He has to be the greatest underrated artists in the world.
 
All Daiki Kasho songs (Including the intro one which I thought at first was meh but is now on repeat)

Underworld's song and Sweden

There's one pre race track I love but don't know it's name and the menu music is very decent.
 
Strange. The uploader must've have that. Maybe it was depending on region. I don't really know...
It's not in the game. I checked the in-game manual credits (Start menu > Manual > Press right to see the credits), and every Kasho song in the Music library, including the unlockable "We Are One" song, is in there except for "Flow."

It was in the GT Academy demo, though.

Hidden song. It says so in the post.
