Some classic: Legend of Dragoon, Chrono Cross.
I'd also recommend some Guilty Gear music to get pumped !

Theo's midi
As a composer myself I have to say those are great ! I'll probably have Field01 and Field02 melodies stuck in my head all day ! You're doing great with the drums, the shift in the beats are smooth and nice. I'm not too fond of the linear bass lines but it does the job ! I'd be tempted to use some in future projects of mine !

Designing the Title Screen
As I almost always do the title screen in the first step of the projects as it helps me get a general image of the project like concept artworks and such.
For me it change from time to time but I always try to keep the mood of the whole game in mind when doing it. It must represent your game in a few seconds because the people won't stay very long on that screen. The same thing with the music and both must get along.
So with that in mind I often work in the abstract because I find that it's easier to represent a mood with only shapes and colors without wondering if it make sense. That's general for the background. For the actual text it's most of the time as Kentona said, a cool font with some effects on it whatever they are. It can be a classic white text with black outline or a flashy rock texture incrusted in the background. But once again I try to have the text look artistically good with my abstract background.
Also note that I will often get pictures on good image and melt them in the abstract background. For example one time I had a reddish and black abstract background with strange texture for a demonic/hell mood (for a rather bad game I had in mind lol) and I went and got a black on white drawing of a cathedral and pasted that on my background, made the white transparent and changed the color of the lines to a shady gray smoke with low opacity with effects. By quickly looking it was only part of the abstract background but when you took the time to analyse it you could see the big lines of a cathedral.
And my final advice. If you can't come up with good ideas and can't achieve to make it look good... then don't force it and make it look bad. I'd rather see a black background and simple Times new roman white text with the title than a flashy background with non-cropped good pictures still with their white background lying randomly on the screen.
