Non-Japanese '80's MSX chiptunes
One of the best around is Terramex (I think MSX has the best music on that game on all ports I have played), another one that pops my mind is International Karate. Not that impressive but hey, it's a chiptune aight?

Oooooh my God MäSäXi, I might as well take a vacation to do all that!
About some of the games, however, I don't think they'll be included, for instance:
* Aliens - Great music indeed, but it's 100% Japanese; nobody less than Nobuo Uematsu did this before he created the now famous Final Fantasy score
* Dynamite Dan - The music is W.A. Mozart's "Turkish Rondo" and the rendition is nothing special
* Super Tripper - Same as before; wasn't it Beethoven's 5th Symphony?
* Skooter - Again same reason; it's Scott Joplin's "Maple Leaf Rag", a.k.a. "Stars and Stripes"
* Jet Set Willy - Diddo; this is a generic, sped-up rendition of a known song as well. Can't remember the name, but my grandma used to sing it. Also used in Konami's Pooyan
* Jet Bomber - Rather noisy version of the Star Wars main theme. Not sure if I should include it.
* Ghostbusters & The Munsters - Hard to decide for the same reasons. Although The Munsters' theme sounds kinda cool on PSG
* Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom - Are you sure that game had music? 
My memory might be failing though
Apart from those, you actually pointed out some good ones which I indeed had forgotten. Thanks!

* Super Tripper - Same as before; wasn't it Beethoven's 5th Symphony?
no, it was Brian Setzer Orchestra´s "Take The 5th (an adaption of Beethoven´s "Symphony No. 5")" :P and is good psg arrangement, me thinks :)
* Skooter - Again same reason; it's Scott Joplin's "Maple Leaf Rag", a.k.a. "Stars and Stripes"
You mean you don´t like Skooter´s music either? oO
* Jet Set Willy - Diddo; this is a generic, sped-up rendition of a known song as well. Can't remember the name, but my grandma used to sing it. Also used in Konami's Pooyan
Are you talking IN-GAME music? It´s "Fiddler on the Roof" but title screen theme is "Moonlight Sonata", which is NOT a generic piece of music, especially in Willy II. :)
* Jet Bomber - Rather noisy version of the Star Wars main theme. Not sure if I should include it.
* Ghostbusters & The Munsters - Hard to decide for the same reasons. Although The Munsters' theme sounds kinda cool on PSG
Seems like you want to use FM musics instead of PSG? :P They are well done arrangements! :) And everything is a matter of taste, of course. :)
* Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom - Are you sure that game had music? My memory might be failing though
It surely has, two tunes, title screen is ONLY place which is silent. :) But I bet you don´t like it either, as it has "simplistic" sound, really not the best psg musics ever, but I like them! :)
Apart from those, you actually pointed out some good ones which I indeed had forgotten. Thanks!
You are welcome, and it´s nice reason to get vacation: put MSX psg musics to youtube! :P
About the Aliens game, wow, I thought there were only a ZX Spectrum and IBM compatible version!
Cool, I'll look for it.
Probably you'd already guessed I meant this one:

I don't mean I dislike the tunes of Super Tripper, Skooter or Jet Set Willy.
Maybe it's a good idea to dedicate a special movie to "MSX PSG versions of classic music".
"Classic", as in well-known, which would include Ghostbusters, Star Wars, Munsters etc.
