Edmilson 7,432 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 I've been playing through the game and the music is really great! Gordy and Barton did a great job with that. It's mostly new material, but it feels Williams-y enough to be a Star Wars score. The morons at EA should really release the album with the score, preferably in a 2 CD format. Also, the cameos of Anakin's Dark Deeds and Anakin's Betrayal were an unexpected surprise. I liked it. Is it a newly recorded version or did they use the ROTS recordings?

Edmilson 7,432 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 I have advanced through the game and I'm pretty sure I've heard Yoda and the Younglings from AOTC on the scene which Spoiler Cal sees himself training a bunch of Force sensitive kids. But it sounded like it was coming from a distant radio, so it's kinda hard to distinguish it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbs 14,306 Posted April 11, 2020 Author Share Posted April 11, 2020 It's great to hear parts of the ROTS OST in 7.1. Such a vibrant recording and energetic performance by the LSO.

Anthony 572 Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 As far as I am aware, the only Williams cues to feature in the game are Anakin's Dark Deeds, Anakin's Betrayal and Jango's Escape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manakin Skywalker 4,891 Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 I thought there was at least one more, but perhaps I was mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmilson 7,432 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Anakin's Dark Deeds plays again on the ending of the game as Spoiler Cal, Cere and Trilla meet Darth Vader. And it's the OST version, since it plays 5M7 Anakin's Dark Deeds and then 6M1 It Can't Be, just like on the album. It's a pretty weird choice for that scene, maybe something like Spoiler The Clash of Lightsabers from ESB would've been more appropriate. I guess the team involved with the game only had access to these specific tracks from ROTS, and maybe Yoda and the Younglings for an extremely brief scene. The Spoiler Imperial March plays again on the ending, but it's an original composition by Gordy and Barton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAvengerButton 175 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Well, I've managed to nab a FLAC rip of the music for this game, but I feel like I'm missing a good chunk of music. I have about 200 or so files. Some of them are various cues put together on one file, I guess that's how they are processed within the coding or that's how the asset compiler spits them out. But I've combed through all 200 or so files and I haven't been able to find music for the menu theme as well as a select few other tracks. The total length of the music together is about 5 and a quarter hours. Normally I'd listen to them off of Youtube but hot damn, the sound quality of these FLACs is incredible. Can anyone in the know give a word to confirm I may be missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The files can't be extracted in lossless FLAC by default, so the files you're listening to are likely OGG's converted to FLAC. Also there are two directories for music in the game files: the first has about 200 files, while the other has an addition ~120 files. So there should be approximately 320 files altogether. It sounds like you just got a rip of the first directory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manakin Skywalker 4,891 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Considering Gordy already provided the Battlefront 1 & 2 OST compilations in 48khz/24-bit (for free!) I suppose it isn't really that necessarily... HOWEVER, if they were to give it the JFO treatment and have at least 2 hours from each game, that would be incredible. I also want to point out really quick that this is technically the first Star Wars video game score ever released commercially! Shadows of the Empire doesn't really count, considering it was composed to accompany the book (a couple years before the game was released), and the SWTOR album was only released as part of the limited collector's edition boxset of the game, so not many people have it. mstrox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, I got the lossless BF albums from his Soundcloud, but I'd happily pay for official releases of them, to show Disney/EA that there IS interest in such releases. I can't imagine though that these would be longer than what was already available, since these soundtracks are riddled with Williams material, and cleaning those up must have been quite a lot of work already. JFO is mostly original music, so that didn't require so much re-arranging. Manakin Skywalker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gkgyver 1,645 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Disney needs to squeeze every penny out of Star Wars, which they had at best lukewarm success with so far. Rise Of Skywalker with an alleged 600+ million production cost. I mean.... that's a lot for a pile of shit that made barely 1 billion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manakin Skywalker 4,891 Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 They weren't planning on releasing this album at all. It's primarily the fan petition that got them to realize this could be a worthwhile investment. If they really wanted to squeeze every last penny out of Star Wars, they'd have released those prequel expanded remasters by now!

Perhaps he felt that he could make them available to download for the fans, and take them down soon after so that if someone at Lucasfilm/Disney noticed, he could just say "whoops, I forgot to disable downloading!"
