I sweare the sound they used for falling storm troopers if u shot em off a ledge that scream they do falling down has been sampled EVERYWHERE I hear it in so many random things I'm unsure of its the exact same or what or where it came from lol but it's seared into my brain
These sound CD quality, which probably means its a rip of the PC version. Most of the soundtrack is from the films, some of it is from the companion CD to the book as well.
In the special edition of the OG Trilogy, in one of the Mos Eisley scenes, they digitally added The Outrider (Dash Rendar’s ship) taking off in the background. It’s small detail but at least it acknowledges his existence in the mainline series.
Oh I think it is canon? In one of the newer editions of a new hope you can see the outrider taking off as soon as the millennium falcon does from the bay.
LITERALLY the part of the music I was here for, but couldn't find the Asteroid Belt music isolated. Whgen I read your comment it was about to happen, and I went "Oh, I wonder if they mean-" *The single most thrilling and majestic crescendo of the game* "Yup, they meant that."
Drinking a cold beer just listening to this on my lonesome... Every sip is just savoury.. Cheers to all those 9x lives saved throughout a stage and wasting them on a nightmarish BOSS, the long ass level of "Gal Spaceport" that never gave my temper a break.... And to that Sewer Diagnoga (If I spelled it correctly) eye that terrified me to shits. Haha oh... THAT childhood... I'll miss it dearly. Thank You Star Wars.. Thank you Shadows..
The sewer level always frightened me as a kid, especially the monsters. I would always give the controller to my father who would defeat them. That screech and roar haunted me as a kid.
I never beat that level. The lighting, the water you couldn't see through hardly at all, and those freaking roars scared me so bad; you couldn't tell where those squid things were until you were right on them or were grabbing you. I had seen my brother go through the level. I knew what kind of boss awaited at the end - which was a _very_ hard nope given where and what you fight - but I tried to go through it myself. And proceeded to crumble from anxiety once I came across the first of those in the level. I couldn't brave the jump into the water. I wasn't sure if it was the lighting on the water was tricking me or whether it was that thing swimming around; I knew one was close. Yet I played through the og oot and it's redeads and dead hand and never scared me as bad as that.
@@ShadowSkyX I figured out how to beat the lighting of the level I adjusted the lighting on my tv so that I could see everything LOL, ngl At first I just button mashed until I found myself at the end of the level somehow LoL talk about scary
The music on that level adds a lot to the experience in my opinion. It's Escape from Cloud City from Empire Strikes Back just in case someone's looking for it. Took me a while to find it
@JohnnyTheWolf You are absolutely right my friend, that's the scene where it's used during the movie. But if you search for the soundtrack, it's the second half of the song titled "Escape from Cloud City". That's actually why it took me some time to find it haha
I don't know why, Ord Mantell Junkyard is the one I remember the most. It really felt epic jumping from train to train while this fast paced music gave you the feeling of no time left.
I always love Xizor's palace theme. It is a track made for Star Wars that was not made by John Williams and it fit so well and sounded like it belonged in the franchise.
25 years ago I played this game with my brothers, loved it but it was too difficult for us to beat it. Now 25 years later, my grown ass found a N64 and the game cartridge at Goodwill, and started playing. Wow the nostalgia with this game! I actually beat it on Medium, and to be fair it wasn't and easy ride lol. Pretty challenging game even for me who has played thousand of games on their highest difficulty. Can officially scratch that off my list.
The Force Awakens has a ton of good stuff in. The other two, not so much, but I don't think Mr. Williams had enough time to do his usual on those. The original and prequel trilogy films were all made on three year timelines, but the sequel films were shorter production times.
Love how the game takes all the best songs and the parts of each song. Most of these songs are like 10 minutes each but the game chooses the climactic parts. Genius
And of course some of it is brand new music! Kudos to the composer for sounding like J-DUB! I’m not sure, if it is Williams or not tbh but if it is, i didn’t know! Maybe i missed these songs from the soundtrack
The games ost- Especialy post villan transcripts are like too fucking divine. No really unthinkable transgressions only behind birds eyes nest the nastiest of the villan- SUPERB.
I've been 3 years on a bicycle tour, Mos Eisley tune popped up on my random playlist while I was pedalling in some sand tracks in the Bolivian desert, it was like hiting a turbo button... then I hit repeat 3-4-5-6 times... all these nights playing N64 in the basement weren't a loss after all. McNeely did an awesome job with the original songs, I wish they had brought him on board to pass the torch during the prequels.
I've read the book and played the game; both are brilliant, they should do a movie of it (probably a bit late now, as the franchise has already been milked to death!) but it would still be cool. Chris Pratt or Ryan Reynolds would make good Dash Rendars.
This would make an excellent animated miniseries for Disney Plus. I see no reason that this can't fit into the current new canon. Shadows of the Empire was an excellent game with a great story that could do really well as an animated miniseries since obviously the OT actors are either too old or dead :( to reprise their roles, but you could get Mark Hamill to portray Luke again for the time we briefly see him.
The sewer level boss will always give me nightmares. I heard the boss was bigger than the creatures you fight in that level but never expected it to be three stories tall lol...
Sounds a lot better listening to these soundtracks here than in the game, because we didn't hear the soundtracks entirely. Four soundtracks, including menu, that hadn't been used in the movies or any other Star Wars games.
This game was a classic, though it could’ve had a few more levels. The Battle of Gall, Bothawui, and the space battle before the Outrider boards the Suprosa should’ve been included. But at least the latter made it into X-Wing Alliance.
Menu music is at 3:58 in track 02-The Ice Planet Hoth on the ESB original soundtrack for any one who needs it. It's ashame it was cut and buried, it's a great piece ua-cam.com/video/G05yWOsFmmo/v-deo.html
I love the the entire game since my youth... also the soundtrack (game and the "original" (for the book & Comic) soundtrack) ❤ but what is this, which makes the "Gall Spaceport" Theme so especially cool?... right! It's "BOBA FETTs Theme" from Empire strikes back 😎😎
The entire soundtrack was always fully orchestrated, but due to hardware limitations the N64 version needed to be downgraded in quality. But truth is: This was the FIRST fully orchestrated soundtrack in a N64 game.
All I can hear is myself getting shot at "ugh" "agh" "ugh" "agh"
aaaahhhh - falling from a cliff-

This game was so amazing, both in it’s time, and still today!
That moment you were shooting the AT-ST's legs for hours... until you found out you could aim upwards....
Lmfao holy fuck this was literally me as a kid
Haha ha classic! The seeker ammo was my weapon of choice. It took a time for me to figure this out
I Figured Out That Its Neck Was Its Weak Spot Later On
Wait! You could aim upwards?!
Or you find out you had to use the tow cable to tie their legs
Dash Rendar should've been on Han Solo movie, Disney don't know how to make us happy
I am confident that we will be seeing Rendar in The Mandalorian... Let us pray

You're not incorrect! SOTE will always be canon in my heart. Who cares if Disney decides official canon? It's all fiction anyway.

Just spam every single seeker round you have right into him.
7:21 for me is the iconic moment of this game. One of the most epic scores in any Star Wars media.
Yes!!!!!!!
well it's also one of the most memorable moments of all the films. but in the game if you were to remove the music...

Same!
Agree. It gave me vibes of the movie aliens, which scarred me as a kid
a remake on modern systems would be really cool
Absolutely.
indeed , would be mndblowing
Not if it's coming from EA. You can just imagine how it will be an AWFUL remake.
So I say don't do it unless the rights go to another studio.
Yeah, or they could do a part 2 game, as there was a comic that followed on from the book.
@Charles lol you dumb manchild
Ord Mantell Junkyard-- People give that level so much hate, but I loved it. I thought it was a cool idea.
Best level in the game in my opinion.
JohnnyTheWolf yup. Hoth has been done to death in other games. No other Star Wars game had a level quite like Ord Mantell, as far as I’m aware.
The music on that level adds a lot to the experience in my opinion. It's Escape from Cloud City from Empire Strikes Back just in case someone's looking for it. Took me a while to find it

21:51 - Gall is my absolute favorite. Brilliantly orchestrated. The intensity is magnificent. I love the dissonance
absolutely EPIC... those trumpets and stuff
i only played the nintendo version but now that i found this its incredible.
At the time this game did a amazing job of making you feel like you were in a Star Wars film
This game was the reason I even bought an N64 in the first place, next to Goldeneye 007. Both are still damn good games.
I don't know why, Ord Mantell Junkyard is the one I remember the most. It really felt epic jumping from train to train while this fast paced music gave you the feeling of no time left.

Ord Mantell Junkyard: hold my blue milk
I went to Disney world last year and they completely destroyed Star Wars. RIP Star Wars. My all time favorite game for N64. What a classic 👌
8:30 this tune has played in my mind since childhood
Makes sense. It’s also the music that plays when Rogue 2 finds Luke and Han. I only just realized that the other day.
@@Tremmor500is that the only time it's played?

Tis my favorite Star Wars tune.
😂😂
something about that AT-ST sound on Hoth was terrifying
Echo Base and Junkyard are so nostalgic holy shit
Fond memories. The loping Wampas in Echo base used to scare the crap outta my 8 year old self
8:32 Oh snap. Here comes IG-88
hell yea
So true 😭✊😭 goosebumps, my eyes started watering... felt like a 10 year old kid all over again. Feels like yesterday.
Phelepos Zoukas When I was 8, I wouldn’t play Sewer by myself. The sound of the Dianoga squids still freak me out.
My favorite song is the ord mantell junkyard, i really love that level, until the figth with that creepy robot 😭
Ever since this game came out I always said they should have made a movie of this game and Dennis Quaid should have been Dash Rendar
I've always dreamed a Young Mickey rourke could play this great character
This game made me fall in love with the Hoth theme song
The games ost- Especialy post villan transcripts are like too fucking divine. No really unthinkable transgressions only behind birds eyes nest the nastiest of the villan- SUPERB.
Haha the junkyard theme is engrained in my brain from the train mission
honestly if you beat this game as a kid, you should qualify for a veteran's discount
This sound track is absolute fire
Xizor's palace is a masterpiece
I watch this once a month, full blast
💯💯💯💯

The driving energy from the strings in the Ord Mantell music is so unforgettable to me, it gets stuck in my head really easily lol
21:53 "Go away sir."

I thinked the 6th level was about killing motorcicle riders, not pirates
Best thing was knocking storm troopers off cliffs. This game was epic though. #wompastompa
Xixors Palace fits right into Star Wars…………but I don’t recall ever hearing it in any of the films.
Disney must produce a film or a serie about this story
This game might have not aged well, but it was a wonder back in the late 90s, especially to a Star Wars fan. This was dark forces lite.

Something about 06 is the most iconic

Muita nostalgia.

I think this comes from an old CD rip because that's the annoying sound I used to hear on damaged (or very cheap?) CDs years ago.

but what is this, which makes the "Gall Spaceport" Theme so especially cool?... right! It's "BOBA FETTs Theme" from Empire strikes back 😎😎
This is really from the game? It sounds much better than any other uploads. It sounds better than Project64 too!
i think this is orchestrated, doesnt sound like the game at all
Yeah it's either an OST release or the PC version
The entire soundtrack was always fully orchestrated, but due to hardware limitations the N64 version needed to be downgraded in quality. But truth is: This was the FIRST fully orchestrated soundtrack in a N64 game.
This game was such a lovable piece of crap. LOL
Piece of crap? What the hell man.
The book was much better but at least the skyhook battle was fun.
I always hated battling against IG-88. And hella scared!
Astroid field was amazing to me growing up
I wonder where that "unused" track was destinted for
I feel market vibes from it
Info: Music in Shadow of the Empire wasn't composed by John Williams. Nor the London Symphony Orchestra.
Songs 1-6, 8, and 11, and 12 were originally composed by John Williams, and 7, 9, 10, and 13 were for the game.
britainluver431 Joel McNeely if I recall? Does a lot of stuff for Seth McFarlane these days.
absolute banger classic dude
Great game and great soundtrack
