Does Republic Commando contain any unreleased AOTC/ROTS music?

No. It's got some TPM stuff and an interesting original soundtrack... and clips from Jeremy Soule's "Morrowind" (why not?).

[Henry Buck]

I don't know what to make of "Kashyyyk Droid Cave." The gutteral singing is there, but the orchestral music bears no resemblance to the film cue. And as I said, the last few notes are from Anakin and Padme's "No, I promise YOU" conversation.

What about the music from Wookie Quest Accept from 0:11-0:24...?

By the way someone was asking about the Platform Finale...from 0:00-0:06 is when Grievous opens his arms after he grabs the lightsabers and before he ignites them when he fights Obi-Wan on Utapau....

Same cue but from 0:59-1:21 is right after the Clones arrive and we hear that eerie music we hear when they do a close up of Grievous's eyes...

Thanks. And "Wookiee Quest Fail" is the cue when Obi-Wan drops the block onto Grievous's guards.

Quick question, since you seem to be the go to guy(s) : Where/when is "Grievous and the Droids" used in the film? I'm trying to sequence the album cues chronologically and I can't figure out where to put it

[Henry Buck]

The first part of "Grievous and the Droids," up until after Luke's Theme, WOULD HAVE underscored the crash landing in the Invisible Hand and the ensuing battle, but it was dialled out. Part of the later action music in "Grievous in the Droids" underscores the bridge battle. The unused part is tracked into the Utapau battle... now, I'm not sure if it was supposed to go with the bridge battle as well.

[king mark]

I usually don't skip threads,but I somehow did this one...,unreleased Sith material? where it it.please someone PM me.

[Henry Buck]

I don't think anyone's mentioned this: "Trandoshan Quest Success" 0:19-0:29 is a bit of the finale music in which Bail Organa orders Threepio's memory wiped.

[bondo]

So is that 7M5 - Plans For the Twins or 7M7 - A Home For the Twins?

[Henry Buck]

I think it's the end of 7M5.

[king mark]

Thank you for the PM's.

Lord Skylark,is it possible to learn those powers...If not can you update the UNRELEASED EP3 music files to higher bitrate ones(192 instead of 128)?

Very glad we have the cue Another Happy Landing,plus a few other transition fanfares.And some of the Going to Utaupau music.Plus the unreleased part of Lament is beautiful,I made a pretty good edit into the c.d. cue.

I hope more of this stuff leaks out.Since some Ep 2 unreleased music made it,it may mean that the complete score are in the hands of the game people.Lets hope enough leaks to issue a bootleg so that Sony will have to counter it with somekind of expanded edition,if that is what it takes to get them to release it.

Ok,I've inserted all the little bits in between the OST tracks,this is so cool,I want more!It improves the OST ten folds.I now pray for the opening of A New Hope,Padme's Funeral and Yoda Says Bye to Wookies to fall from the sky.

K.M.

[king mark]

All in all we have 7 minutes of new RotS music with this

K.M.

[fommes]

I would be very very grateful if anyone would be willing to send me the cues. Please PM me! Thanks!

[Luke Skywalker]

PM! please!!!!!

And many thanks in advance

[elvisjones]

Interestingly enough, the two cues that are mysterious in their placement also happen to segue into each other nicely, whether by coincidence or not. The ending of "Droid Cave" is in the same key as the opening of the new music in "Wookie Quest Accept"...
Also, "Trandoshan Quest Accept" ends in the same key as the start of "Riding the Lizard", and "Ryatt Trail" ends in the same key that the next cue ("Chasing Grievous in the Wheel Droid" or whatever it's called) starts in.

[Jack]

As they appear in order...

mus_wookie_quest_accept end = End of Space Battle, where Obi-Wan jumps out of his ship and Ignites his lightsaber
mus_wookie_quest_success second half = Another Happy Landing
mus_kashyyyk_rodian_safari = Just after Anakin complains about being put on the council and not being a master
mus_rodian_quest_success end = The end of the fanfare is used as a transition to Anakin's dream about Padmé
mus_kashyyyk_droid_cave without the middle synthy bit (used later)
which fades into...
mus_trandoshan_quest_accept beginning
some more stuff goes on for about 2 minutes that we don't have, then back to...
mus_trandoshan_quest_accept (end)
mus_wookie_quest_fail = as Obi-Wan drops that huge bit of metal on those droids before fighting Grievous
mus_avatar_platform_final beginning = When Grievous takes off his cloak and reveals his lightsabers to Obi-Wan
mus_avatar_platform_final end (where the timps start) = When the Camera close-up of Grievous' eyes occurs
mus_kashyyyk_ryratt_trail = When Palps talks to Anakin about the power of the Dark Side (edited in film)
mus_kashyyyk_elders_hut = When Anakin kills the Younglings
mus_kashyyyk_droid_cave (middle) = When Obi-Wan comes out of the Water
mus_rodian_quest_accept = Padmé goes to Mustafar (more of it in the Film)
mus_rodian_quest_fail = The end of the battle with Darth Sidious and Yoda
mus_kashyyyk_dead_forest (end) = When Darth Sidious saves Darth Vader at Mustafar
mus_trandoshan_quest_success (small part from middle) = When thingbob asks for the Protocol Droid's memory to be wiped

If I've missed anything, lemme know

[tpigeon]

I would also love these cues. Would anyone who has them mind PMing me?

Ted

[Mr. Breathmask]

Same here.

[ins]

same here. wrote a mail to lordskylark but didn't get a reply :/

[fommes]

Right. Thanks for all the hard work! Is there somebody who is able to post a detailed cue list how to edit the soundtrack with these cues to match the order Williams originally intended?

[Jack]

Just wait for my Complete Score -- I'm releasing it tomorrow, Anyone who wants it can PM me for a link

It's a mighty fine release

[ins]

I am looking forward to this

[bondo]

Jack, you da man!

[Chris ChrusherComix]

What wonderful news! Great work Sky!

My only question is... How come this unreleased music wasn't discovered sooner? I thought the E3 games were out for a while now?

-Chris, Who realizes that this moment reminds me of the genesis and early years of JWfan.net/AKA John Williams Central/ AKA John Williams music (or whatever ) back before I had my own PC and had to look via a friend's computer machine! LOL!

[paraquem]

I'd be most appreciative if anyone whose navigated their way to this new material could point me in the direction of how to find the files. I've been on to the Star Wars Galaxies site, but luddite that I am, have become totally confused by the whole thing.

Thanking you in anticipation.

[king mark]

I hoped somehow by today the whole score without SFX would be available...oh well.Maybe cue by cue it will happen.

I must say that by finally putting this score in the best chronological order possible it has grown on me a lot.Battle of the Heroes is much better after Anakin vs ObiWan.The little snippets of unreleased fanfares brightens up things considerably,especially Another Happy Landing,and Going to Utaupau.

Again,I must say that those 20 unreleased seconds of Lament is the part of the score that most grabbed me in the cinema.It can be almost seamlessly edited into the c.d. track with some patience,raising it to a whole new level IMO.

Again,a higher bitrate version of the files containing unreleased music would be appreciated.

K.M.

[lordskylark]

For the galaxies music... The raw files were mp3s. So, even if I made a higher bitrate, it wouldn't do anything.

~Sky

[king mark]

ah,I kind of figured.Anyways what we have is better than nothing and enhances the OST greatly.

True. I think I will edit it this way, although keep in mind...

- the "Droid Cave" music, although it has the gutteral singing of the ballet, does not match any film cue.
- the last two-three notes of "Droid Cave" appear during Anakin and Padme's conversation (where Anakin promises to save Padme), after which the music segues to Obi-Wan's Utapau arrival (which is the "Trandoshan Quest Accept" music).

Also, "Trandoshan Quest Accept" ends in the same key as the start of "Riding the Lizard", and "Ryatt Trail" ends in the same key that the next cue ("Chasing Grievous in the Wheel Droid" or whatever it's called) starts in.

Yes, because this is how it goes in the film (except that most of "Chasing Grievous" is dialled out, so "Palpatine's Seduction" leads to nothing).

mus_wookie_quest_accept end = End of Space Battle, where Obi-Wan jumps out of his ship and Ignites his lightsaber

I don't think so. This scene is silent in the film, but it was scored with the beginning of "Grievous and the Droids" (try watching Episode III with a CD player, everything syncs perfectly). As elvisjones2005 pointed out, this bit is in the same key as the end of "Droid Cave."

Nope... the very last thing you hear.. like the last 3 seconds of mus_wookie_quest_accept are DEFINETELY from the last 3 seconds of the Beginning space battle.. as Obi-Wan Jumps out of his ship and hits that droid with his light saber.. I'm positive! 100% and I think you've possibly misunderstood what scene I'm talking about because Grievous and the Droids isn't used at all in the beginning space battle, it isn't used until the point where Grievous starts fighting with Obi-Wan and Anakin in his ship and then he smashes the window and makes his escape...

[ridan]

OK... so does the TPM folder there have unreleased TPM music? If so, which tracks?

[Henry Buck]

It has a lot, but the files are in poor quality. I will be getting lordskylark files from the PC version soon - wait for those.

[Alex_B!]

JackChapple is right...however, everything up until those last few seconds is different.

(first post!)

Music from "Racer Revenge" is now up at the FTP. I can't check it with my dial-up connection... anyone want to see if there's new music there? (Based on the time period, I believe it could only have TPM music.)

[Luke Skywalker]

i think the ballet runs the whole cue. the cave is superimposed to it. Impossible to edit it out it is (if i understood cerrabore right).

About trandoshan quest accept. It is not Obi Wans arrival to utapau. it is R4 departure from Utapau (or Obi wans fake departure), that's why it sync completely with Ridding the lizard. They are separete cues but one follows the other.
