Yoko Shimomura, who later composed the music for Parasite Eve, Legend of Mana, and the Kingdom Hearts series, composed the game's music. As part of the score she incorporated arrangements of music by Koji Kondo from Super Mario Bros. and three tracks by Nobuo Uematsu from the Final Fantasy series. Although the soundtrack contains both lighter and darker themes, it has been described as containing "a touch of bounciness" throughout. Shimomura regards the Super Mario RPG soundtrack as one of the turning points in her career as a video game composer. The music from the game was released as a soundtrack album, titled Super Mario RPG Original Sound Version. NTT Publishing released it in Japan on March 25, 1996. The two disc set contains 61 of the game's 73 songs.
