Bump - I recently browsed through the Return to Dream Land's audio files and discovered that there is actually a naming convention that reveals the composer breakdown. All Ishikawa composed tracks have all caps filenames, whereas all Ando composed tracks have lowercase ones. Not only does it follow all of the confirmed credits, it also follows the characteristics that you would expect from each composer. So far the only exception on the list to the aforementioned rule is 'dedededx.wav', but only because it is just ripped straight from Super Star. I would recommend applying the caps rule only to RTDL's original music.
Below are the exact filenames extracted from the disk ISO:
I'm trying to think of the best way to quickly match up the names to the music, but if you have a legally obtained copy of the ISO and Dolphin you can extract them for yourself quite easily.
