Hi All! Thanks so much for listening :) Please note that this was a fun little project I spent no more than a few hours on, and I never expected it to explode like it has! Had I known, I would have spent a lot more time paying attention to each track, but as it stands the tracks were all processed together with each 'stem' being made up of all relevant instruments from every track in succession. What this means is that I only ever had one big master file containing every track, and pulling out each individual track separately for release would be another whole project in itself. This, coupled with the fact that the project is stored on my old computer which I no longer use and may or may not even still have the original split stems stored unfortunately means that releasing the tracks for download isn't currently on the cards. I'd hoped (and still hold out for) an official release one day, but in the meantime I hope you can enjoy this soundtrack nonetheless. If you're looking for more RaC style music, check out my channel where you can hear tracks I've composed (and am currently composing) for a work in progress ratchet and clank fan game :) Thanks again everyone!
Thanks for making this! Still feels unreal that we can now listen to the whole ost in stereo. I have been asking Insomniac and David Bergeaud about the release of the ost's since like 2004, but after 20 years still nothing...I'm sure one day they will release them :)
the remake OST was the very definition of generic, can't believe they looked at all these amazing themes and the love for them from the fans and thought "yeah let's just scrap it all"
@@TheBeaverCommentator not really a hot take, many people liked it because it was good game, but comparing to the original - remake falls short. Humor, characterization, music - it's downgraded.
David Bergeaud, the composer, have a really good knowledge of colors and textures both in orchestral, and electronic writing, the combinaisons of the 2 principes whitin it's advanced harmonic system do a very good job.
in 2009 i kept searching for all th songs and i found them on a wierd shitty site named beemp3. I belive that all the songs are from that or from direct video game rips
@@lv1543 ?? Okay for starters, these sites upload pirated copies. That is by no means the origin of this album If you're implying David Bergeaud ripped off the R&C music... The game was released in 2002, half a decade before 2009 If you're implying this video we're watching is ripped from somewhere, it doesn't have to be. Pretty sure you can buy legal copies.

@@fagglebag Wikipedia states 2002 as the release date, now we have 2023, so 21 years But it also states November 2002 so it’s actually 20 years (you are correct). There, confusion lifted, I hope. I think I just cared way too much about this
@@silentkuudere5620 I remember it being hella difficult to get past due to the gauntlets they placed I think? And then you get to fight Quark afterwards albeit in a spaceship bout.
@@yourcordialvermillionchapw2398 It was only the worst because it was hard lmao, at least the song slaps like every other one tbh I can't think of 1 bad song in rac 1
Everything about this game makes me smile :) The music, the characters, how they bounce off of eachother, the depivery of each voiceline, the way characters squash and stretch to sell the cartoony look 💕 the music the gun sounds, the HEAVY WRENCH SWINGS Im so happy so many people like something i thought was a niche personal thing
I will never forget the Sony PlayStation 2 demo disc with the Ratchet and Clank demo on it. It contained two levels: Kerwan Metropolis and Rilgar Blackwater City. I played the demo over dozens of time and then I got the full game of Ratchet and Clank on my birthday in early 2003.
bro we lived the sam life except i had the jam pack 03 with going commando where you got to fight the red robots and be giant clank.just that alone made me want this game so that was the next game me and my brother got and been hooked ever since
Yes! You are the ONLY person I've ever heard mentioning that demo disc! Scee hits 2003, I think? Also my very first exposure to ratchet and clank! Cheers
Amazing work! You can easily hear the different layers of the tracks now without them competing with each other in the same audio space. I've played the original R&C countless times as it's an all-time favorite of mine, and I'm only now hearing these little details for the first time. My love for this soundtrack has only deepened now. I also really appreciate you adding the transition sounds and using gameplay screenshots to show the areas the tracks play in. It's a little bit of extra detail that goes a long way to immerse you, now that we have this in stereo.
Funny, I just emailed David an hour before I found this vid asking if he had any plans to do some sort of album release of the Ratchet & Clank OST in Stereo Form for the upcoming 20th anniversary.

Eudora - Logging Camp is an underrated tune, I can't get enough of those industrial funky beats, they perfectly capture the feeling of a sci-fi logging camp.
A year late but whatever. The fact that this was mono and for it to be given new life within a stereo field by remastering it represents David Bergeaud’s work on it better and should’ve been heard originally in stereo if the original tapes still exist. You sir, have done a magnificent job at accomplishing it. David would be proud if he were to hear this.
A big throwback to the earliest days of January 2003 for me! On that moment I got the first Ratchet and Clank game as a birthday present. Almost twenty years ago and I still play this gem and it's successors!
In my opinion, they can make new ground in tech and graphics all they want, but nothing will ever compare to how much the ps2 rocked the gaming scene, and theses games and music are just a testament to that fact.
so true. no gaming console has ever come close to the absolute vibes the ps2 radiated. like a stick of uranium, the vibes just infuse into everything it touches.
incredible work, the way this soundtrack melds so many genres of music so seamlessly, especially that like stereotypical alien whirring sounds? in orchestral chiptune music? blows my mind to this day
Seriously, what a fantastic soundtrack. I have no nostalgia for this game... I never played it; my parents never bought it for me when I was a kid and I still never have, but the music is so good and catchy that this video has stayed in a pinned tab on both my home and work computers for nearly a month. Thank you for compiling this with stereo; it's great!
You are a real hero for that reddit comment about the scales used in R&C, I've been scratching my head for a while trying to figure out what gives Deadlocked (and the other titles in the series) that cold, gritty sound. Thanks!
Well since you remastered this soundtrack, I would like to see 2, 3, and Deadlocked remastered Also you did a good job with remastering this, if only we got a remaster instead of a crappy childish reboot for the ps4, and I’m glad Ratchet & Clank is turning 20 Years old, the first game still holds up and it’s pretty cool to play, and pretty good for a ps2 game for it’s time, and it’s still a favorite game, even tho A Crack in Time will always be my #1 Fave And for what I have to say is… I will always hold Ratchet and Clank and Insomniac Games in my heart (and leave out the bad Ratchet & Clank games far behind)
I have been writing my Bachelor thesis blasting this Stereo Remaster and I just gotta say how thankful I am to be able to have my childhood games soundtrack blasted in my ears with this quality! Thank you so much!
@@xotlagames did a thesis about how assistive technologies can support people with disabilities, Information systems thesis :) thanks again for the remastered soundtracks 🔥
This is fantastic work. So happy to see that others have not let the 20th anniversary slip by. I think this really elevates some tracks like Hoven which normally feel muted and drowned out.
Really cool never knew the audio was mono like that when I was a kid I never played with headset in 2002 when I was 5 years old lol so it never really mattered but this is cool, keep it up
I always knew the beta versions were different but most of its so subtle that its hard to tell the difference but the remaster defenitly makes those differences more clear
beautiful! Now all I need to do is find a ps2 developer kit that the devs at insomniac were using, is still intact with the source files on it, add these into the game and play it again with headphones :)
JESUS CHRIST THIS SOUNDS SO GOOOODDD Thanks so much for taking your time to do this, you have no idea how much I appreciate it, but to give you an insight, I think Ratchet & Clank is everything a game should aim to be Also, as a personal favourite, thanks for taking the loop off of the songs, makes them much nicer to listen to
God this just makes the whole thing so much clearer... being able to hear the bass and an extra electric piano I never noticed in novalis already blowing my mind... can't wait to get to my favourites! I have to wonder how on earth you're able to separate the tracks so perfectly, unless you recreated it all from scratch? Either method must take such a huge amount of time and attention
YOU’RE AMAZING My heart skipped a beat hearing how wonderful Aridia sounds here. I love R&C1 so much and am so giddy folks are still putting in the work to preserve it like this.
1:41:11: The sales pitch vocals from the ads, compressed and gravely mumbled, give me chills: a time when I did not yet know what I'd become and what a Universe of Possibility awaited me. Has it been twenty years, already? _Two whole decades?!_ *What a ride.* ⚙ *[({R.G.)}]* 🚀
This is a *great* idea, and very well executed too. Thanks so much for doing this, it sounds fantastic and is just what the soundtrack deserved. This is what the PS4 reboot should've sounded like!
Probably the best studio remake yet! A lot of them are generally smears without much center but these are golden! If you're able to compile these into individual tracks (two loops) for a playlist I would be very grateful!
Currently having an outer body experience at 4 am. My mouth is foaming and ive just emptied my childhood all over my laptop. Thanks for this. R&C 4 LYFE!!!!!!
My man thank you for sharing your work with the community. It is crazy what you were able to create with the ai. This nostalgic music sounds so beatiful now
I know you worked so hard on this but I really have to hand it to David Bergeaud. Mans made such a unique soundtrack for all the R&C games he worked on. Not much else like it exists.
Gemlik Base is maybe one of the greatest pieces of music in any video game. To hear it in such high fidelity makes me happier than you could ever know. Thank you for this!
I miss the good old days from Ratchet and Clank. I had played with someone back when I was a kid and it was fun. Makes me want to buy PS2 and ratchet and clank. There are still available as used or kept them as new.
I remember as a kid I loved the sound track of this game, for the first time in my life I watched the credits scroll and saw a familiar name pop up in the credits, to my amazement I saw that is was my year 5 teacher who worked on this sound development of this game, the next day I rushed to school just to ask my teacher if he worked on the game and his eyes lit up! He looked at me and said “shh” with the biggest grin on his face, my jaw dropped and my eyes widened. I was also his worse student when I got to his class because I sucked at maths.
@@IIIISai Hideo Kojima, I was there. The whole class looked to the left after a bit of pause from cheering and saw Todd Howard wink and the roared with cheer.
One of the most GOATed soundtracks ever composed for one of the most GOATed games ever made, in better than ever quality. You are an absolute legend for uploading this.
I'm amazed at how many of these tracks still live in my head rent free even after 20 years. If that's not a testament to a well constructed score then I dont know what is.
This is some masterful work. You obviously worked hard for quite some time on it and we can definitely notice. A huge thank you for making turning this amazing soundtrack into stereo.
Really cool project. As a R&C fan and music producer I totally love the work you put in and think you did a great job. It really makes we want those tracks in stereo :D
After playing mostly hd collection now I truly understand how good original drek fight was. If you don't know in hd collection soundtrack in that fight is broken. Instead of special track it plays regular Veldin 2 music.
Amazing what can be done with AI these days. Been listening to this at work and it's unreal being able to hear this OST in such crisp quality, especially after the years of people trying and failing to emulate a stereo sound.
Hi All! Thanks so much for listening :)

Hello? 🥺👉👈😔
The immense fidelity added to these tracks makes me more upset that the remake dropped the OST for a plain and serviceable "scifi orchestral" score
the remake was such an insult to the original series i refuse to play ever play it and just pretend it doesn't even exist

DROPPED THE OST?! And they dare call it a remaster. Re-duction more like

@@TheBeaverCommentator not really a hot take, many people liked it because it was good game, but comparing to the original - remake falls short. Humor, characterization, music - it's downgraded.
It's an absolute travesty that the R&C remake abandoned this soundtrack in favor of generic orchestral stuff. Ruined the entire product for me.
This is so unbelievably uncanny, i cannot describe my happiness hearing this masterpiece FINALLY in stereo
hell yeah
I couldn’t even tell a difference but that’s just because I can’t enjoy anything that’s stereo since I can only hear on one side

My mind ascended into heaven when hearing metropolis in stereo
God this just makes the whole thing so much clearer... being able to hear the bass and an extra electric piano I never noticed in novalis already blowing my mind... can't wait to get to my favourites! I have to wonder how on earth you're able to separate the tracks so perfectly, unless you recreated it all from scratch? Either method must take such a huge amount of time and attention
YOU’RE AMAZING
My heart skipped a beat hearing how wonderful Aridia sounds here.
I love R&C1 so much and am so giddy folks are still putting in the work to preserve it like this.
Gemlik Base in stereo ❤️❤️
was so good
1:41:11: The sales pitch vocals from the ads, compressed and gravely mumbled, give me chills: a time when I did not yet know what I'd become and what a Universe of Possibility awaited me. Has it been twenty years, already? _Two whole decades?!_ *What a ride.*

This is a *great* idea, and very well executed too. Thanks so much for doing this, it sounds fantastic and is just what the soundtrack deserved. This is what the PS4 reboot should've sounded like!
Probably the best studio remake yet!
A lot of them are generally smears without much center but these are golden!
If you're able to compile these into individual tracks (two loops) for a playlist I would be very grateful!
So nostalgic! Really wish you could like something more than once... thank you for doing what the remake SHOULD have done. 👍
Currently having an outer body experience at 4 am. My mouth is foaming and ive just emptied my childhood all over my laptop. Thanks for this. R&C 4 LYFE!!!!!!
My man thank you for sharing your work with the community. It is crazy what you were able to create with the ai. This nostalgic music sounds so beatiful now
your mashup at the end was amazing! you should totally make a separate video for the mashup! maybe even an extended cut!
Of course it's built off of a slowed version of Robot Plant because that's easily the grooviest song in the entire OST
I know you worked so hard on this but I really have to hand it to David Bergeaud. Mans made such a unique soundtrack for all the R&C games he worked on. Not much else like it exists.
Today on: things I had no idea I needed in my life but definitely did
This is fantastic! Thank you for all the work you've put in! It sounds great 😄
i am in tears
Aridia has the best music in my opinion. It feels so alien like, yet the grooviest shit ever.
I hope you can release a downloadable version of this soundtrack, it's a treat for my ears! PLEASE! :')
Hey Crono
Gemlik Base is maybe one of the greatest pieces of music in any video game. To hear it in such high fidelity makes me happier than you could ever know. Thank you for this!
I never realised how much is going on in the hoverboard race track, it's genuinely incredible hearing it like this
These games are all to be savored.
Hearing Kerwan Metropolis instantly made me 8 years old again :(
I feel like I ascended into a higher plane, I didn't know how bad I needed these classics in stereo until now. Thank you dude!!
Dude I’ve been wanting to hear this ost in Stereo for a while! Thank you for doing this to one of my favorite video game soundtracks of all time ❤
Damn it’s actually crazy how well i remember some of these tracks after like 15 years. Iconic for sure.
20 years.
love this my childhood
That's really clean remaster. Other sounds different. This one it's just the better version of original one. I like it!
OML PLSSSSSS SOMEONE MAKE A PCSX2 MOD FOR THIS
Wooow this is pure gold :D
Just perfect, finally being able to listen this soundtrack in stereo is just gorgeous, huge thanks!!
I miss the good old days from Ratchet and Clank. I had played with someone back when I was a kid and it was fun. Makes me want to buy PS2 and ratchet and clank. There are still available as used or kept them as new.
Can't someone get David Bergeaud to release the uncompressed tracks?
This is great! I've working on a HUGE Ratchet and Clank animation project and had to resort to using the beta stereo tracks.
But glad I found this!
Hope you do well on your project.
@@zombyjano thanks it is complete! ua-cam.com/video/oCKcgwjGruw/v-deo.html
55:33 - Pokitaru - Sewers has gotta be the most underrated track in the game.
I remember as a kid I loved the sound track of this game, for the first time in my life I watched the credits scroll and saw a familiar name pop up in the credits, to my amazement I saw that is was my year 5 teacher who worked on this sound development of this game, the next day I rushed to school just to ask my teacher if he worked on the game and his eyes lit up! He looked at me and said “shh” with the biggest grin on his face, my jaw dropped and my eyes widened. I was also his worse student when I got to his class because I sucked at maths.
Who is he?
that is super cool, whats his name
@@IIIISai Hideo Kojima, I was there. The whole class looked to the left after a bit of pause from cheering and saw Todd Howard wink and the roared with cheer.
@@ToaHurlak52 wow
What a fake story
One of the most GOATed soundtracks ever composed for one of the most GOATed games ever made, in better than ever quality. You are an absolute legend for uploading this.
I'm amazed at how many of these tracks still live in my head rent free even after 20 years. If that's not a testament to a well constructed score then I dont know what is.
wait for the ending 👌👍▶️🕺💃⚕️🧬🧲👼🍆🌊🎶
This is some masterful work. You obviously worked hard for quite some time on it and we can definitely notice. A huge thank you for making turning this amazing soundtrack into stereo.
Great work! I love how you use the in-game music transitions to fade between each track.
It's so amazing hearing Gemlik Base in stereo, gives me even more chills now ty :)
Really cool project. As a R&C fan and music producer I totally love the work you put in and think you did a great job. It really makes we want those tracks in stereo :D
26:37
Refining my childhood. So much work went into this, I can tell. Thank you kindly.
This is fantastic! A shame that the whole soundtrack hasn't been officially released in stereo yet, but this is a great taste of what it could be
After playing mostly hd collection now I truly understand how good original drek fight was.
If you don't know in hd collection soundtrack in that fight is broken. Instead of special track it plays regular Veldin 2 music.
Amazing what can be done with AI these days. Been listening to this at work and it's unreal being able to hear this OST in such crisp quality, especially after the years of people trying and failing to emulate a stereo sound.
Just realised the expression on Ratchet's face in the cover art is half happy, half angry. Not sure if that was intended, but it's an awesome touch.
