I was thinking what kind of music would upcoming Descent 4 have.
I hope that the music would be somekind mixture between techno and
industrial metal (like Descent 2). Descent 3 may had too much
unimpressive technoish music.

This was my opinion. What do YOU think? All we need is sisu, sauna and salmiakki... Hyv? Suomi!!

Absolutely loved the Descent 2 soundtrack. I still listen to it regularly.

As for Descent IV, apparently this was going to be used for it. Not quite sure what to make of it. A massive thank you to EA for:
- Producing great quality games time and time again
- Providing excellent technical support
- Never destroying any highly acclaimed studios for profit
- Never ripping people off
- Never wasting people's time

The songs sounds great. I really like those songs and I've downloaded them. All we need is sisu, sauna and salmiakki... Hyv? Suomi!!

That gets a thumbs up from me. I still listen regularly to the music from all 3 descent games.

I have a question: where can I find all Descent 1 songs? I have already them in midi version, but I'm looking for songs which are used in DXX-Rebirth. Could you help me to find the songs?

I had downloaded them and the descent playstation soundtrack from a site that I have bookmarked. Assuming the site is still up I'll give you a link when I get home.

One thing I would love to have is a remix of the intro music from D1. It'd be a nice tribute and reminder of where it all began. And it sounds cool Do any of you know the tale of how cornmeal came to be?
Neither did the miller when he left his house that morning!

I have the entire Descent 4 soundtrack in high quality (the ODS fan-made D4) - but if you want it, you'll have to register at Sectorgame forums.

Although they only contributed one or two tracks to the descent2 soundtrack, I think Skinny Puppy would be prime candidates to write the descent 4 music.

I've found some trailers of Into Cerberon (Doom 3 mod with 6 degrees of freedom) and watched them. Maybe Descent 4 would have some kind of this music... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVjltjo-bGw

The music from trailer was taken from game System Shock 2 All we need is sisu, sauna and salmiakki... Hyv? Suomi!!

As far as I know, rebirth uses the MIDIs. MIDIs, of course, sound different depending on what sound card you play them on. I have them recorded on a Sound Blaster AWE32 card, which is supposedly what the non-FM MIDIs were intended to be played on. AWE32 and OPL2 recordings used to be available on planetdescent.com but were removed due to copyrights, I guess.

Studio renditions of some of the MIDIs were produced for the Mac and PlayStation versions. BitTorrent would be your best bet to find those. It took me a while to track them down, though. Worth the effort.

PM me if you want the AWE32 files or the .torrent file I used to download the Mac soundtrack (I think I still have it)

I remixed the intro music for D1 a long time ago. I don't think it's very good, though. Lol. I did recently do a remix of the credits music, though. You can listen to it on my MySpace band page. (http://www.myspace.com/deftflux)
