Contra 4 - Stage 5: Ocean [Music]

[FireBomberBassist]

Fuck, I want to buy this game again now.

[thebighead84]

I LOVE THIS MUSIC!

[Zeta439]

Hey, that's Prophet from Crysis 2!!!

[sicor94]

this is my favorite song in the game (well,execpt for the credits)

[dullKnife]

wished they made the pea shooter into contra 3 standards

[newguy90]

Damn, who was the bass player on this track? Larry Graham?

[fonarte]

@newguy90 Bass is sequenced probably lol

[newguy90]

@fonarte

Nah, Larry Graham was a member of Sly and the Family Stone and is one of the greatest electric bass guitar players that ever lived. He invented the technique of slapping on the electric bass, which this track uses heavily. I'm just exaggerating how good the sequenced bass track sounds, is all.

[mattkd100]

the music in this game is pretty good

[TheJacklopz]

the begining of this soundtrack is from the original Contra 3's stage for, hyper-bike chase

[SoApBoX]

I have to say, strugglepoo is about as manly as a name gets besides Contra, itself.

[TheJacklopz]

imagine, Bill and Lance meets Marco and Tarma, four characters, triple mega action!

[LoneWolff82]

@TheJacklopz nah metal slug got 6 characters now...how bout contra meets gunstar heros

[TheJacklopz]

@LoneWolff82 eem, well, in a action-plataform cross over... no??

[LoneWolff82]

@TheJacklopz hmm well ok...then they should just have Bill and lance...(before contra for ps because lance died)...Team up with Contra Hard Corps team. If they did metal slug that would be 8 Characters. thats just to many for a two player shooter

[termi555]

dont put thumbs down on mrdanny's comment maybe he grew up with contra and played it so much on all the difficulties and mastered it contra 4 on hard is a cake walk for him

[MrDanny9081]

i beat this game in hard mode and it was easy to me

[Jegudiel21ZX]

Sounds like an epic action movie. the game itself is epic

[wootlanter]

Needs more guns shots in the background!!! ( :

[somahiru]

my favorite track of the game :)

[Jeowulf08]

the boss fight is pretty tough. I have yet to discern its pattern... but working on it. Then I will be able to consistently beat 2/3 of the game with no deaths (can currently consistently do a no death run of first 4 stages and 6th stage is easy. 3 and 6 are real easy if you have level 2 homing missiles and machine gun.

[meh54]

1:30 to 1:52

Need I say more?

[KiLLeRoiKiLLeR]

I prefer the Contra 3 4th stage music (the original) than this remix!

[strugglepoo]

It's not really a remix, though. The only thing similar is the intro. Just think of it as a completely new tune instead of holding it up to Contra 3's standards! :-)

[LoneWolff82]

@strugglepoo im sorry the way I look at it...it sounds like a remix but to me it kicks ass for a remix

[TheJacklopz]

@strugglepoo i agree, in my opinion, this is the best contra 4 music.... the ride bike chases are the best...

[LoneWolff82]

@TheJacklopz I agree and bike chases or just chase stages period always has that music that just makes you want to play it again. This song ROCK!!!!

[fonarte]

@strugglepoo

That's exactly right.

Virt used a lot of Motifs from the old scores of Contra games here and there.

But then developed even more individual ideas for the songs.

[meh54]

I can just imagine Flea playing this awesome funky bass line.

[omarS54]

Wow, it sounds so much more different without all the other sounds.

[FF7ACJW]

GO BASS PLAYER!

[bolch88bb8]

@FF7ACJW its all midi i think but still very wicked programming :)

[WarioMan3K]

One of the best songs I ever heard. An awesome remix of the 4th stage from Contra III! :D

[Jeowulf08]

5th stage actually. 4th is the harbor. This is Ocean.

[TRIPLEOGV666]

this game was good but the split screen on the ds was horrible

[Jeowulf08]

yeah, blind spot D:

[shyarkugan]

X( this is the hardest level for me, still love this game:)

[RelieveSF]

godly

[TheHolyFilms]

Damn when i get to this stage i start losing lives

[xXbelmontXx]

LOL look at these two idiots complaining.''i fucken got ripped off of this game all the levels monsters, bosses are from contra 1,2,3 fuck this game i bought it for no reason they fucken ran out of ideas'' Are you out of your fucking mind? ''i never could get past level 4on normal anyway.'' Dont blame the game , its not the games fault if you suck.

[Colddirector]

The bosses are the same because he sucks...?

[sompret]

They wanted a NEW Contra imagining instead of a remake consisting of compliations from various Contra titles, which was exactly what we got.

As a remake, Contra 4 is fucking incredible. As a new game, however... Not so much on the new stuff.

[oneupdawg]

Oh man! Old school tunes! I feel teary eyed...the composer captured the classic contra vibe

[rupertsfromhell]

holy shit, KILLER BASS!

[klinji]

Jake Kaufman is a frickin genius :D

[meh54]

I wish they made this level longer...SO SWEET.

[deadlyspectre123456]

Contra 4. FUCKING KICK ASS FUCKING SHWEET!!!!

[deadlyspectre123456]

^_^>>>

[CCmachine]

not really.

i let my teen brother play contra 4 for a while, what a mistake. he tossed it on the floor and the hinge shattered.

i never could get past level 4 on normal anyway. whats the point of Contra? to play the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again til you stop making stupid mistakes. thats never appealed to me.

[vhernandez2121]

Oh the memories *cries*

This game really is AWESOME!!

[DiggeDog64]

OH YEAH! ITS THE FUCKING MOTORCYCLE LEVEL! good times.

[mantax55]

can u upload the boss song from stage 3

[GlaForge]

Great stuff! Post up Stage 3 "Base" level's music. - Its my favourite track from the whole game...the intro to the music isn't that special but when the guitar/bass and drum rhythm kicks in, it really grooves like a motherfucker - brilliant stuff!

[SilverPhoenixLEK]

In Contra 4, stages 5 and 6 are my favorite levels in the game.

Their music tracks are the big reason why. Big Kudos to Virt for making such a kickass soundtrack.

[igotyou62]

well i got the mp3's for waterfall jungle city and the harbour levels and i gotta say these remix tracks of the originals remind of the nes days

[Squirrel3D]

Where can you find mp3's of music from Contra 4?

[BaronOfBacon]

It reminds me of stage 4 from Contra 3, especially the opening part with the same notes and baseline.

[CrackStuntman85]

This one sounds almost like stage 3 from Contra 3

[TheWormapedia]

yeah I agree with you

[CrackStuntman85]

I meant stage 4 of Contra 3, the one with the bike and the giant ship

[druha10304]

nice

[gaggy500]

Nice one!! I looking forward for the next one,Hope it's a Base Stage's Boss
