Tetris Game Music is a soundtrack released by Platz in 1990. The CD contains arrangements of most of the songs from the various versions of Tetris developed by Bullet-Proof Software released in Japan. However, the album appears to be focused on the Famicom version, as the CD features screenshots of only the Famicom version.

The CD booklet contains liner notes for each song (see the Discussion page for translations). It also has composition and arrangement credits for each song.

Another interesting thing is that the booklet lists all of the equipment used in the making of this CD. This includes the synthesizers, computers, and software used.

The 12th track, ORIGINAL VERSION MEDLEY is a single recording of all songs in the Sharp X68000 version of the game.

Song Titles

The album lists the songs in both English and Japanese titles for the songs. The Japanese songs are all in katakana, and are direct translations of the English titles.
