Looking for a PC-Engine HES archive

I'm searching for a "dedicated" PC-Engine HES music archive to download chiptunes from. Is there any, and if so, could someone provide a link? I'd rather avoid Zophar's Domain's shoddy and incomplete archive, similarly with its bigger sister, Kaminarimon.

If there's already such a thread on here, kindly refer me to it.

Other than KingShriek's site, I know of no others.

Then, another question: Every time I open a ZIP, whether it be from Zophar's Domain, Kaminarimon, or KingShriek, it just contains 1 HES file, sometimes along with a WinAmp playlist file. Is the HES file itself an archive file for all the game's tunes or is the file a file just for one tune? I get the feeling I'm doing something wrong in WinAmp.

Each file is a complete soundtrack. Unless you download a playlist file, I believe that they just play all the songs in a row. If you turn them into .PCE files/roms and play them in an emulator or on real hardware, you can skip tracks by pressing a button.
