Off the top of my head, I have:

1) Mario Kart 8 - N64 Rainbow Road. This whole theme reminds me of a celebration of the whole series lol.

2) Destiny - The final boss(es?) theme. The only good part about this game.

 

[HUELEN10]

Song of the year might just be this.

[chadboban]

Tropical Freeze thread? Tropical Freeze thread

Seashore War
Amiss Abyss

Some of the best water themes I've ever heard in a game. (Seashore War is technically an ice theme though)

[BY2K]

1. Mario Kart 8. Just... all of it. But to name a few. Mount Wario, Bowser's Castle, Mute City

2. Shovel Knight. Strike the Earth, FIghting with all our might, and this one

3. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. Scorch 'N' Torch, Aquatic Ambiance , Homecoming Hijinx

[SpartanN92]

Destiny the thread.

Honorable mention: Halo 2 anniversary

[sector4]

Transistor - We All Become

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9O2Rjn1azc

Transistor - Old Friends

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ql8K3KJyWgY

Both send chills down my spine.

All of Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze and Hohokum's soundtrack

 

[Majestad]

You mean this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAeeCdCSMQg

Yes! Fucking amazing.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Yeah nice rip off from Two Steps from Hell: United We Stand - Divided We Fall

 

[StriKeVillain]

The whole Tropical Freeze soundtrack.

Shame that Hotline Miami 2 didn't make it out this year.

 

[Thores]

Bravely Default's entire soundtrack, if that still counts.

 

[BY2K]

Yeah nice rip off from Two Steps from Hell: United We Stand - Divided We Fall

Oh wow.

 

[DukeBobby]

Yeah nice rip off from Two Steps from Hell: United We Stand - Divided We Fall

Yeah, I was thinking of this when playing that chapter. Too similar to be a coincidence.

EDIT: My contribution:

Wolfenstein: The New Order - Ransacked

 

[plutoknight]

Almost definitely this thing.

I came to drop a ton of Bravely Default music and then I ran into this and holy shit I want this.

So, I'll drop some BD music now:

Actually, you know what, here's all the awesome BD battle music in one video a GAFer in a thread about Guitar-driven RPG music posted this and now it's one of my favorite videos.

And no one has posted Busted Bayou yet?!?! or the super-tease Staff Roll music that, at around 2:40 or so, has absolutely the best track in the entire game (And there is a 9-minute long full version of that, too, but it's not on youtube)

I'd post Tearaway stuff, but I guess that was technically last years game... :/

 

[rokero]

so much Nintendo love ............. they really outdid themselves

 

[WoolyNinja]

Anything from Velocity2X is quite good but my absolute favorite is the metal version of the VVVVVV soundtrack by Jules Conroy with help from the original soundtrack creator Souleye. Worth every penny if you like VVVVVV and a little bit of guitar!

[Leafhopper]

Most songs that came from Nintendo games. You could honestly pick one OST at random this year and probably hit gold.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

I know they released in Japan few years back but my favourite have definately been Danganronpa 2 (+1). Just so fun, weird, unique, full of energy soundtrack.

Just a few examples, links in tuberepeat to not accidentally spoil anyone with comments/related videos if someone still has yet to play them and is planning to:


Dandandanganronpa!
Ikoroshia
Discussion -HOPE VS DESPAIR- [2nd mix]
Ms. Monomi's Practice Lesson
Mr. Monokuma's Lesson

I wish I could play Donkey Kong

 

[D-Man]

Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze - Aquatic Ambiance
Bravely Default - That Person's Name Is
Persona 4 Arena Ultimax - Break Out Of...
Mario Kart 8 - Mount Wario
Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy - Airship Chase
Super Smash Bros. for 3DS/Wii U - Magicant/Eight Melodies
Danganronpa - Discussion -HEAT UP-
Persona Q - Light up the Fire in the Night

This is only the tip of the iceberg. So many games that came out this year had stellar soundtracks.

 

[Rushersauce]

The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth OST is FUCKING NUTS!

Satan battle
Chest music

 

[super-famicom]

Transistor soundtrack is excellent.

[ohlawd]

New World Order from Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc

Danganronpa 1 and 2 have probably only two or three songs total that are worth a shit

but NWO

NWO IS SO HYPE

This is the song I want blaring when I'm out conquering the world

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Danganronpa 1 and 2 have probably only two or three songs total that are worth a shit

[Random17]

Halo 2 - Anniversary.

Still one of the best soundtracks ever, in my opinion.

 

[Elitist1945]

Halo 2 - Anniversary.

[Regiruler]

Shovel Knight - An Underlying Problem (The Lost City)

Right game, wrong track:
Shovel Knight - The Defender

 

[Mohasus]

Drakengard 3 - Black Song
Drakengard 3 - Final Song

The whole OST is great.

 

[zashga]

It may not count since it's still in early access, but Crypt of the Necrodancer is full of awesome music. It's actually tough to pick a favorite track. Even the tutorial sounds badass.
