The developer gets a lot of hate but the Fez soundtrack really complemented the game.
Also any soundtrack done by Disasterpeace is basically gold.
A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Journey
The game is a piece of art and the soundtrack plays a big part of it.
Kingdom Hearts
Yoko Shimomura is outrageously talented. Obviously there's a lot of Disney-esque stuff mixed in, but there are a bunch of original tracks that are epic af
i'm ngl most nintendo games really got banger music. i esp love mario kart 8's soundtrack, peak fusion
Persona 3/4/5 are goated on their own ways in my opinion.

I have this soundtrack constantly stuck in my head, especially Ghost of Bo
Not sure if mentioned yet, but EVE Online has an amazing soundtrack. Their 10 Year Anniversary Symphony is just the cream on top.
-Gran Turismo 4 suuper nice menu themes i especially like hypnosis, the motorious zone, don't kick yourself and be at home
The Dead Space franchise. The Payday franchise. Skyrim. Stellaris. Starcraft II. The Age of Empires franchise. Warframe. Telltale's Batman. Starboard.
Just going through what I regularly listen to.
I really like SimCity 3000’s jazz soundtrack. That was the first time I remember playing a game where the soundtrack was released separately.
Honorable mention goes to DX-Ball 2, which introduced me to a lot of electronic music and the concept of module/tracker music. The game by default came with just 4 .mod songs but on the website you could download additional files from the same creator, or add other .mod files from other sources to a folder and they’d appear in the game. First shareware game I ever bought, and paid by sending a money order through the mail because I was too young to have a credit card.
The entire Guilty Gear franchise. Running joke is every album comes with a free game.
Batman the Videogame on the NES, FFVII, the entire WipEout series, original soundtrack for Crazy Taxi, Sonic the Hedgehog 3/Sonic & Knuckles, X-Men on the Sega Genesis, WET, Omega Boost, Zone of the Enders, BurnOut 3: Takedown, Mobile Suit Gundam: The Lost War Chronicles, Roommania #203, Street Fighter Alpha 3, Mega Man 2 & 3, Doom, SSX Tricky, Xenogears.
Warhammer 40k: Darktide has some absolute fucking bangers:

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's entire soundtrack is also a masterpiece but just to share a few:
