Hi all,
I took the liberty of making a set of music .ogg files utilizing the very excellent Timbres of Heaven Soundfont. On top of GM compatible it is also XG and GS compatible as well, and I highly recommend it for general use.
The soundfont is available at the midkar website (https://midkar.com/soundfonts/index.html).
Anyway the ogg set has been normalized and made gapless. Unfortunately it was rendered with fluidsynth which is all I have available on OSX, although it has a few minor issues with ToH. Still the end result I feel is better then anything else out there.

[EDIT]
I just added in the "Terror From the Deep" tracks as well. Fluidsynth had issues with them so I actually got Spider player which makes use of BASSMIDI driver to do the rendering. Only I find it tends to crush the tracks. As such I'm not really perfectly happy with the new renderings. But these will do until I can find a better solution.

This is great stuff! Excellent rendition of the X-Com OST! It sounds very close to the music in the original game played on DOSBox.

Well that's because they are the same midi files just rendered with a sound font. :) For a long time I preferred playing the game in dosbox as my setup allowed for me to use this soundfont. So I figured I'd take the time to pre-render them for OpenXcom
