Makes me wonder how everything would have been if they had decided to go with the alternate main theme... that track would have been iconic for Mass Effect.
I'm glad they decided not to go with the main theme elevator music. It would be like the game was too self aware and would take me out of the moment. Still funny though.
@robberblood Unless I'm mistaken, the track does play in the game on occasion when your'e in the elevator. The fact that you didn't notice seems proof that it didn't take you out of the moment :)
@sErgEantaEgis12 Well right when it comes to that one elevator on normady SR1, it was an engineering FAIL. Question is, who figured out that "perfect solution" TURIANS? xD Nah its was a human idea im afraid... :P
Is it just me, or do the sections of the elevator music that aren't variations on other songs from the game sound like they were inspired by "Feliz Navidad"?
Yeah, like someone said 1:06-1:12 can be heard briefly few times.
But seriously, why wasn't this alternate theme used in the game? Maybe it isn't good theme for a main theme at the start, but there are some cut scenes where it coud have been definitely used.
Maybe it'll be used in the second game, since it's supposed to be darker. It's anyway interesting to hear if some of the leftover songs will used in the seond game.
Parts of this alternate intro remind me a lot of the first song in the Myst IV: Revelation soundtrack which was also composed by Jack Wall. Maybe he thought they were too similar and decided to go with something different?
@Zandercode Could you upload the song that plays on the Uncharted worlds and on the underground bases where you accomplish uncharted worlds assignements?
lmfao! omg no you didnt zandercode! at 4:54 the mass effect elevator music! lol it owns! its so funny, im rofl! I'm one of the few that actually like the elevator rides, esp when that cheezy music comes on.
I would so laugh if ME had bad coreagraphed music. Such as you just founded out the geth are attacked the lower parts of the citidal, hard suspense music plays as you rush to the elevator. Then its like an akward pause with the elevator music...
After you get out, the serious music suddenly comes out again..
Nicely done with tracking down all these pieces. I was wondering, though, do know how to get a hold of the music from when you fight Matriarch Benezia at Noveria? That was one of the best parts of the soundtrack, but I can't seem to find it anywhere outside of the game.

What about the song that plays when you have to save tali in the first one? The part where you meet her.

Anyone else hugely miss elevators in ME2, with their associated character chats? Instead we get ridiculously long and frequent loading screens. :(

I like how they remade the main theme to elevator version.
It reminds me of the final song in Portal and its radio version in the main menu (and first room after waking up).

The flourish in the alternate theme between 1:06 - 1:12 can be heard in the game, such as when you complete the repairs to peak 15.
