You're joking right? It's like night and day. It's CDDA digital CD quality studio mixed music.

Dont forget that the Xenon II music (and the subtitle Megablast) was taken from a mainstream music album by "Bomb the Base" called "Enter the Dragon", specifically a track called "Megablast. It was not created specially for this game.

The CDTV version contains 3 new special remixes of the Megablast track which are somewhat b@stardised from the original but still better than the David Whittaker Amiga MOD.

Best game ever. I remember playing it on the 8088XT (Commodore PC ii of course) and it was in CGA (Black and white at that stage). Memories.

Ok keep your hair on, I only asked.
Yes I was aware that the music was a remix of the Bomb the Bass track.

I can't find it on any legal board like Back to the Roots, but you should be able to get it using p2p programs like Emule
