I'd like to second Season 5's DETOUR. Another one with very fun tribal-type music.
Can't wait to hear more about this!

I'd like to second the mention of "Grotesque", an episode which has a wonderfully dark, moody, Gothic score. All of the Darin Morgan-scripted episodes have great stuff, especially "Jose Chung's 'From Outer Space'", my vote for the show's finest hour. And I love, love, love that swing-band material in "Triangle".

I would also like to second the mention of the season 2 episode "Die Hand Die Verletzt". Wonderful "Omen"-esque stuff in that one.
Snow's best stuff was in seasons 2 through 4, methinks -- after that it got a little spottier, which is to be expected. My general feeling is that Snow's music was directly proportional to the quality of the episode at hand. Post-"Fight the Future" seasons leaned quite a bit on samples from the theatrical film's score, but every once in a while Snow would serve up something cool.

I actually like Seasons 4 to 7 best, I must say.
There was considerable tracking, indeed, but it depended strongly on the episode, so I assume it was on a case-by-case basis. I remember SR-819 hinged upon one particular track from Fight the Future. I hope none of the tracking is present in this set, of course.
A shame they can't include the few unreleased cues from Fight the Future, by the way, because there's some really awesome music missing, not much, but there is some.

Wow, this sounds awesome. I'm a huge X-Files fan, and part of that reason is because of Mark Snow's wonderful music.
One track I'd absolutely love to see on the set (nay, it must be on there) is from WETWIRED (3x23). There's a creepy theme that plays several times during the episode, particularly during the pre-title sequence. I'd love to hear that on this set.
I want to reinforce the desire for the piece of music at the end of APOCRYPHA (3x16) that plays while Scully visists Melissa's grave.
Also the piece of music towards the end of Act 2 ( I think) of GROTESQUE (3x14) where Scully finds the knife under the car deserves to be on the set.
I like a lot of cues from Season One, specifically in DEEP THROAT (1x01) when Mulder meets Deep Throat at the running track, and GHOST IN THE MACHINE (1x06) had a great 'technology' cue in it too (I can't remember where, but I think it's been mentioned in this thread already). DARKNESS FALLS (1x19) had some great music in it too, and so did THE ERLENMEYER FLASH (1x23).
The cue at the end of ASCENSION (2x06) and a lot of the 'dreamy' stuff in ONE BREATH (2x08) needs to be on this set too. I love the main theme in 3 (2x07) but I guess we have that on the current soundtrack in mostly untainted form.
The revamped theme from Season 9 would be great, and so would the piece of music at the end of RELEASE (9x16).
There's a short cue of piano in MILAGRO (6x18) where Pagett says something like 'I made a mistake, Agent Scully is already in love' and there's a close up on Mulder and Scully staring after him with a wonderful piano piece over it.
The theme/piece of music already mentioned from SYNCHRONY (4x19) deserves a spot on there.
There's so much wonderful music from this series to mention. I'll have to go rewatch it and see what else deserves to be on the set. It would be nice for a 'complete' set of music from the series, but that's probably too much to ask for.

I have now *massively* updated the list I had, with things I had found since then, with suggestions I've gathered elsewhere, and by going through this thread and recording every little detail. (I hope the original posters here won't mind; I am acknowledging and linking back to the FSM boards.)
So this is to the best of my knowledge and efforts the most complete list of unreleased X-Files music around and it's available here:
http://www.eatthecorn.com/dossiers/mmc.htm
I will keep updating that list should more suggestions follow, here or elsewhere.
Many many thanks to all those who posted, and I hope LaLaLand will be able to use our kind suggestions in the final set. Though sincerely, there's way more material than for 4 CDs here...
(By the way, the keen-eyed will notice that some of the episodes in LLL's original post were not mentioned in this discussion: Aubrey, Clyde Bruckman, The Unnatural, Field Trip, The Sixth Extinction, Jump The Shark...
and the main theme from Roland was used in "The Truth and the Light" (track "Lamenta")
and also the music from Jose Chung's 'From Outer Space' was previously released in "The Snow Files"

(Thanks for the link correction, The Cat)
