VGM that non-vgm listeners don't realize is vgm
Someone mentioned Symphony YS fools the "normals". What other vgm is there that people don't make that stupid "Eh. Is this video game music?" question?

Nearly everything new I'd say.
Since most of it has an orchestral soundtrack |

Needless to say about vocal themes, even if many modern VGM feature vocals it'd be the last thing people associate with VGM. Any track that doesn't loop also could spoof music of other category.

What surprised me was when I shared some chiptune with friends and they said, 'oh this sounds like a video game,' of course its obvious, but I always considered most stuff to be more like electronic music, not specifically video game music.

I've seen that stuff like the Guilty Gear series, the ARRANGE CD of EHRGEIZ... and anything from Dynasty Warriors 4~onwards easily tricks non-listeners into believing these albums are, in their own words, "Pretty damn good instrumentals' collections".

Yup. A lot of the newer orchestral stuff, or the rock/pop stuff you hear in Guilty Gear and Persona would fit.
Also, a lot of the indie games nowadays have a modern approach, especially the ones that are electronic music based. Trance, dubstep, techno all could fool people into think they're hearing something not from a game. |

We all forget: the real question should be why we shouldn't proudly declare it as video game music xD

I've been listening to vgm long enough to render meaningless any points of reference I would have had, so I genuinely am unsure.

Like what has been already mentioned, live orchestral music will usually not be associated with VGM. You could easily convince just about anyone that Dragon Quest music is just some contemporary concert material, for example (and in a way, it really is... I'm pretty sure Sugiyama does the orchestral scoring first and then some audio monkey programs the synth versions later).

I think the Ridge Racer series are probably one of the best examples. The first one sounds straight out of the rave scene of early 90s. |
