Hello,
I searched for threads about the city builder game soundtracks and there are a few older oneshere and here. I thought I'd put up some info and tracklistings for reference as these soundtracks are great, in particular the Pharaoh and Emperor ones are my favorites.
It seems there have been a few of the soundtracks released on cd and the most well known one was the Music to Build Pyramids By for Pharaoh. From what Ihave read is there was a limited quantity made back when the game was released and some were given free with pre-orders of the game. However the cd didn't have all the tracks as featured in the game folder.
Thankfully we can find all the soundtrack files in the game folders on the cdroms. Keith from the Heavengames and Tilted Mill forums has a websitehere which enables you to listen to the soundtrack if the game is installed on your computer. The Pharaoh "Lost Tracks" are also available for download here, thanks Keith.
I have also linked to official websites where the soundtracks can be downloaded or bought, and you can also listen to them on youtube if you search. There are also some extra tracks not included in the official game releases which I will include links to below.

Notes
**The Pharaoh "CD Only Bonus Tracks" seem to be the two tracks Horus and Tuning Up which appear on the Music To Build Pyramids By soundtrack cd only and not in the game. Difficult to find these, if anyone can share them that would be great.
**There was some confusion if there were extra hidden tracks for the installation music for each game, but the Pharaoh installation track is a looped segment of the Khepera song, the Emperor install screen track is the song Himalayan Echos, and I can't say for the others except Zeus which does seem to feature a non-game installation song which I named "Install" and will try to rip and upload as I can't find it on the cd.
**The Poseidon expansion added 3 new tracks to Zeus and on the Emperor soundtrack website there are 2 extra tracks which weren't included in the final game it seems.
Also if you listen to the samples from Keith Zizza'sMemories of a Forgotten Age album, some of the songs sound very similar and feel like they could be in Pharaoh - maybe it's that special keyboard effect that gives me those Pharaoh vibes. In particular the songs Dunerunner, I Elemental, Spirits of the Desert Moon, Across the Rubicon, The Obsidian Coast and The Guardians Return sound most Pharaoh-like.
