My favourites st the moment for coding to are the Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2 soundtracks, but I also use Pokemon soundtracks for this a lot, and the Zelda Breath of the Wild soundtrack too - unlike older Zelda it’s a lot more subtle and less overpowering.

It's basically a concept album based on Sonic's music, full of arrangements, mash-ups and tidbits of interviews about the Mega Drive and the Sonic games layered upon the music.
I recommend taking the time to listen to it in full, but if you don't have the time, my personal highlights are tracks number 3 (Sky High), 6 (Hydrofunk), and 8/9 (My First Experience With Funk/Back in the Yard).
Really, the first time I forked money for music in a long while.
Are there any AAA games that use voice-stealing for their music? Old games would drop voices-- like the melody or rhythm track-- when there were lots of sprites on screen. I think it would be great if a Hans Zimmer score cross-faded to an arrangement with just low brass or something when the action starts to ramp up.
Devil May Cry 5 does the opposite where vocals and instruments get added as you reach higher Style ranks.
It hasn't been mentioned yet but another great game with great music is Shadow of the Colossus!
