Music (SSB)
The music of Super Smash Bros. is accessible in the game's Sound Test and are listed and described here. Strangely, the "character select" music isn't present in the feature. In Super Smash Bros., each stage has one track, several of which reappear in later games of the series. Hirokazu Ando, an employee of HAL Laboratory, composed all the original music in the game and arranged all the remix tracks.
