Hurraaaaah!! I just receive an e-mail from Nintendo. The soundtrack is in only one mp3: 21.7MB, 160kbps and 19 minutes length. It's totally awesome. The original message is (in spanish):

Congratulations!
You are among the first 100 Club Nintendo members to download Icarian: Kindred Spirits, the WiiWare game from Over The Top Games!
As a special "Thank You!" for your interest in WiiWare, we hereby send you the soundtrack of the game for your listening pleasure!
Now you can immerse yourself in the heavenly tunes of this title anytime you like?
The music was exclusively composed by Steven Gutheinz, who hails from Los Angeles, and who used a host of authentic instruments, such as the harp, santur and duduk to create the unique sound of the game. Steven has created scores for a wide range of media including films, videos and games.
The soundtrack consists of music files in MP3-format, which you can access by clicking the link below.
Ahhhh... Now I feel a little less bad about not having the game itself here in the US today. Thanks, M!
EDIT: I'm 10 minutes in and like what I'm hearing. Very calm and ambient. Doesn't have a "soundtracky" feel to it. It has a rather Bear McCreary/Battlestar Galactica background feel to it, which is a good thing in my book.
BEST THREAD EVER future of NL >:3
[16:43] James: I should learn these site rules more clearly
[16:44] LztheBlehBird: James doesn't know the rules? For shame!!!
The soundtrack is amazing, but I'm really unhappy at how they just combined it all into one track, rather than zipping them all together. Oh, and now that I know that, @Machu, I wish I didn't stay up until 11pm on Thursday to get it when I had an exam the next day
I also have been confirmed as one of the first 100! Firefox is only getting 3 seconds as well; hopefully Safari 4 will fare better; otherwise I'll be trying out that rapidshare link.
