Any chance we can get a sample of the music that plays when Shepard leaves earth? The one from the beta, when the reapers are landing. That piece was awesome.

You mean this?


Yeah I have that, on my iPod and everything, but would like it without the sound fx. Fortunately the reaper sound kind of blends in, but the shuttle sound kills it a little. :P Very good piece though. When I heard the initial part of this track during the E3 demo with the kid in the vent, I was a bit worried about the direction of the soundtrack. After watching the leaked beta for the first time, and hearing this music when they were escaping earth, I felt confident that the soundtrack would be great. Hearing the music from the CE unboxing, and the news from this thread are just icing on the cake.

Great to hear the latest sample, with the addition of the 'Victory' motif from ME1 really made it for me - to know that ME3's soundtrack will now hopefully incorporate some of the former games thematic music now that Sam Hulick is on board, certainly makes my anticipation of this game 100% complete. As a soundtrack fan, the Mass effect music thus far has been an integral part to my enjoyment of the series; outstanding work so far, and i'm now looking forward to enjoying some epic tuneworthiness from this cracking composing team

It is an amazing piece of music in the demo  - its fits perfectly.

I'm assuming it'll be on the digital soundtrack included with the CE - I see no reason why it wouldn't be.

I REALLY hope they don't pull off another Deus Ex: Human Revolution and release the Collector's Edition with half the OST, and wait for months before launching the ACTUAL OST separately =P

They did that with ME2, so I'd count on it.

And then there's all the DLC OSTs.

You mean Icarus? It wasn't full actually. The finalized one had a longer buildup:P

And didymos, dammit:pinched: So I guess it WILL happen. Can live with it.

Not my point. Vanilla OST for HR was incomplete in the CE. ME2 as well, as it seems.

Yes. They staggered the release of the ambient music and "combat music" tracks.

Just in general, that's pretty much standard industry practice with soundtrack bonuses. The idea is to make you want to get the rest of it.

Haha Sam Hulick is awesome! I actually do listen to mass effect tracks to go to sleep. Vigil knocks me out quick. As for Icarus, it was still awesome to have a version of it before the release. But I agree, the longer version is the best because of the intro.

Red Orchestra 2, that Sam Hulick also wrote for, has an incomplete OST. I think there are at least 3 tracks missing (two of them are my favourite ones of the game). Sam, are you there? Can you tell me what happened to Rus_Pavlov_L and Ger_Fallen_H (can't find them on YT anymore so I'll just name them)?

Here's what I realized after the Deux Ex: Human Revolution soundtrack. That second, "full" release? That's a whole 'nother project. It takes months to take music that's been composed and structured for an interactive audio system and adapt it for a soundtrack release.

Ever notice how the tracks on Mass Effect 2 are sometimes 9:00 or so? Those tracks are careful blends of all those 1-3 min. looping and transitioning components. It takes a lot of work, and again, in the case of Mass Effect 2, the individual segments alone would not be enjoyable listening material, but when sensibly blended together, just as the game's real-time audio system did, you've got something great.

I never got the Collector's Edition of Mass Effect 2, but I'd bet its partial soundtrack contained more of the cinematic cues. Thinking about Mass Effect 3's Collector's Editon, I consider it a perk to have part of the soundtrack release early! It'll certainly get a lot of airtime in my headphones…

I like Xzibit but I figured Sam Hulick more of a Drake fan,  maybe a Kanye fan even.

Kanye loves his tech music, almost as much as Kanye loves Kanye.

I would like to share this with all of you. www.youtube.com/watch
There are some nice pieces in this documentary, it is quite long. I suggest watching it casually.

Robert Moog was rather spiritual for a engineer. Good inventions usually come from imposing ideas a cross- pollination of  seemingly contradicting things.

Some interesting philosophies are discussed in this piece.

It's simply that there were too many tracks to release all at once (90 mins of music!). Plus, I had a plan to organize the soundtrack album in chronological order of the actual Battle of Stalingrad. There was just too much musical content to do this without cluttering it up and wearing out the listener. It hasn't been decided yet what to do with the rest of the tracks (probably at least 8 or so that were unreleased).

That picture is an Internet meme. I don't think him using it indicates he's an xzibit fan. He could very well be, but that pic/meme has been around the internet for a while .You've never seen that meme before?

Good. It would simply not have been the same without Good ol' Hulick.

I feel the same. I immediately associated it with halo 3 and "never forget"
