I downloaded the soundtrack for Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker and in iTunes and Windows Media Player all the tracks sound perfect. However, upon using them in PGE they sound like utter trash. I've tried almost all of them to the same result. I've also tested other MP3s however, they sound perfectly fine. Here's a link to the soundtrack download if you want to see what I mean: (Link is in the description)

EDIT: Peculiarly, these tracks sound fine in SMBX as well.

I have simple answer:
It should be resampled into 44100 hz. You also can download update from laboratory where I have fixed by me SDL2_mixer where can correctly play 48000 hz but anyway if you have music less than 44100 hz, you should resample it or it will be played with speed up. (I temporary disabled resampling of mp3's which less than 44100 hz to prevent crash of SDL2_mixer. About bug I reported to SDL developers).

Thanks I remember seeing something about the SDL2_mixer crash. I have Audacity and have resampled one of the tracks to 44100hz and it works fine now.
Thanks again. :)
