One of the composers for The Simpsons: Hit & Run, Jeff Tymoschuk, posted the original demo tracks for all three songs he composed on his Soundcloud page. The songs he composed are "Dr. Nick" (the theme for Monkey See Monkey D'oh), "Professor Frink" (the theme for Cell-Outs), and "Kang & Kodos" (the Level 7 driving theme).

Compared to the music in the final game, these demo tracks are much less compressed (44100Hz vs 24000Hz) and feature different instrumentation, differing quite drastically in some cases. This mod adds these versions to the final game!

The tracks have all been edited so they loop fairly well (about as well as they did in the vanilla game). In the case of Professor Frink's theme, I had to splice in the regular SHAR version at the end as the demo track is missing that part of the song, which is a bit annoying but there's not much I could do about it. The audio itself is stored in 160kb/s OGG files (which is the default export setting in Audacity) however I may release a FLAC version in the future for all the audiophiles out there.

The mod is also decompilable, so if you want to use these tracks in your own mods you can!
