Music
The music used in the Mega Drive version of Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine are an assortment of remixes from the original Puyo Puyo game as well as having its own soundtrack. These include:
- The Title Theme uses minor chords from the beginning part of Memories of Puyo Puyo.
- The Password music is Memories of Puyo Puyo (but not the full-length song).
- The VS Mode music is Final of Puyo Puyo (without the intro).
- The Panic music is a remix of Final of Puyo Puyo.
- Dr. Robotnik's Intermission music is a looping segment from Brave of Puyo Puyo.
- Exercise Mode uses Sticker of Puyo Puyo.
- The Cast music is Theme of Puyo Puyo.
- The Credits music is Sunset of Puyo Puyo.
- The Game Over music is a minor-chord segment remix of Sticker of Puyo Puyo.
A few tracks that were unused from the game include renditions of Theme of Puyo Puyo, Brave of Puyo Puyo, the original Puyo Puyo win fanfare, an arrangement of the BGM in Stages 9–12, and a fast-paced arrangement of Dr. Robotnik's BGM. Unlike Kirby's Avalanche, where the only original music was Warning of Puyo Puyo, Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine is the only western release of Puyo Puyo game to feature music from the original Puyo Puyo game.

Famous quotes containing the word music:
“If mass communications blend together harmoniously, and often unnoticeably, art, politics, religion, and philosophy with commercials, they bring these realms of culture to their common denominator—the commodity form. The music of the soul is also the music of salesmanship. Exchange value, not truth value, counts.”
—Herbert Marcuse (1898–1979)
“Have you ever been up in your plane at night, alone, somewhere, 20,000 feet above the ocean?... Did you ever hear music up there?... It’s the music a man’s spirit sings to his heart, when the earth’s far away and there isn’t any more fear. It’s the high, fine, beautiful sound of an earth-bound creature who grew wings and flew up high and looked straight into the face of the future. And caught, just for an instant, the unbelievable vision of a free man in a free world.”
—Dalton Trumbo (1905–1976)
“Great music is that which penetrates the ear with facility and leaves the memory with difficulty. Magical music never leaves the memory.”
—Thomas Beecham (1879–1961)
