Korriban, The Homeworld - The Music of STAR WARS: The Old Republic

[SaiTorrsVideos]

Forgot what planet it was, but I heard part of this theme on Republic side. I'm thinking it was Quesh . . .

[FalconRS]

Peace is a lie. There is only passion.

[LakakuOo]

Korriban is not the Homeworld. Its Dromund Kaas.

[TheBongoFrenzy]

@LakakuOo The Sith originated from Korriban, but fled to Dromund Kaas after being defeated by the Republic.

[MDMMDSRigger]

2 People are Jedi xD

[theadmiralbane]

I can hear a lot of KOTOR II music in these songs, and I like it.

[C9R9D]

Very nice, gives me the same vibes as Undercity music in WoW, this game is looking so good

[Nattehan]

@C9R9D It strongly reminds me of Undercity too. Though it's a very different composition.

[shinobeast]

If EA could fix the server ques, I might buy this game.

[gelmorn18]

I used to train of Korriban, but then I took a blaster to the knee

[DreadLordBalnazaar]

@gelmorn18 blaster SHOT would be a better way to put it

[xWatchTheSky19x]

I love how part of the song is from KOTOR 2. 

[Jinawee]

Early game access rocks!!! This game is so amazing. Looking forward to a weekend of doing nothing but sitting in front of my computer chair!!!

[MrQuickels]

2 people are getting ganked by the Empire tonight in their Sleep

[SurtrRising]

I love the darker music.. The Music that conveys this mood tends to be more powerful than the up beat kind of stuff... Loving this track!

[Zandorlan]

The KotOR II portion brought back memories.

[mth31216]

I remember, just 5 months ago, I was sitting right here watching Dallas Dickinson narrate raids and battlegrounds, anxious for this game to release, and now we are only 9 days away from launch. Amazing how quickly time goes by once you think back, isn't it?

[jonus63]

I'm guessing that if I pre-ordered it the 1st of December, I won't be getting early access am I?

[xipheonj]

@jonus63 you still will, you just won't get in as early as others. Also depends if you do it through anyone other than origin, some have been unreliable giving out early access codes.

[jonus63]

@xipheonj It's hard to choose Origin when there are cheaper options, but oh well, I can wait, I can still play all my other games before TOR gets all of my time. Going to be awesome.

[sno86]

@jonus63 yeah asking the SW music youtube page will answer this one for you.... :/

[jonus63]

@sno86 Well, it did. Someone answered it.

[jaskivski]

I love this song, honor and glory to Korriban. The power of the dark side many covet but few know of his greatness ... Korriban is inspired by the grandeur of the Pharaohs and Ancient Egypt.

[HandRpuffin]

Who thinks this game will beat KOTOR?

[UnderweightPanda]

I love the bit from KOTOR 2 at around 2:45.

[SLJunexHLFODG]

it might be already in the game but to add to creepiness, the song peragus fuel station from kotor2 should play in 1 of the tombs...

[Ireniicus]

Very good. Makes me wanna play all the more

[masterspeed94]

wow, thats just cool :)

[TheKirana1983]

The music for Korriban fits so well with the starting quests for the SW and the Sinq. Excellent composition. Well done Mark!

[cowfordflorida1]

this game is going to be so good

[cers001]

Just what i expect from Korriban "the call of the dead"

[Chukoomo]

Epic Track ! Very nice and it fits great to the Story and the game.

Good Job Mark

[BattlestarCentura]

1.49 thumbs up if you get it |:u

[markgriskey]

@limwire5

Luke: "I don't believe it..."

Yoda: "That is why you fail." ;)

[MrMadman112]

I pre ordered in september. So how much earlier do i get earlier access

[darthkevgen]

@MrMadman112 probably 3-4 days

[PnzrDiv666]

Themesong of my life.

[DragonEX200]

I hear fallout 1/2 at the beginning of this for some reason...

[Zachary0701]

Sends chills down you're spines when you read that and listen to the music of the Home-world of the Sith... Ea?

[donovanjrichards]

@Zachary0701 you scared me man xD

[Zachary0701]

@donovanjrichards :D <3

[Zachary0701]

@donovanjrichards I am hoping to begin My Story-Line for Star Wars The Old Republic for when I find a Roleplaying guild >.<

[Zachary0701]

:D lol

[Zachary0701]

-A Zabrak sits in the center of a chamber in Naga Sadow's tomb... He begins to Meditate... Beginning to tune into the Dark Side of the Force. His eyes, glowing purple as His body seethes the color of blood red. Eyes, fixed on a secret door to the Tomb of Naga Sadow He stands, hands pointed to the door... Then, in a single instant, lightning from His fingertips... A low growl can be heard from the Zabrak as the door shatters before Him. He rises, beginning to make His move into the chamber...-

[TheChuchulainn]

@Zachary0701 "A twi'lek sits in a dark cave, basking in the dark side... He levitates as trendrils of the darkness penetrate him... He moves his hand to his lightsaber, moving them up and down the dangerous weapon... the hilt ejects a pure white energy... his dark side opens to receive unlimited power..."

That's what you sound like. I wish people would stop with the completely random scenarios designed to evoke the music but all they succeed in doing is sounding emo.

[Zachary0701]

@TheChuchulainn hehehe I just did it because

1) I am a roleplayer and I love making scenario's with music (Even if it's Star Wars ♥)

2) Star Wars The Old Republic ♥♥♥♥♥ (Hearts in General)

3) I'm gonna Roleplay in SWTOR -grins- ♥

4) I know I sound emo... It's the Dark Side!!!... We don't have cookies :o

:P

-Zach

[StromNoteak]

@Zachary0701 Then what! Such a cliff hanger

[Zachary0701]

@StromNoteak Only you are able to decide the Zabrak's fate. -winks-

[Zachary0701]

@Zachary0701 I am on the server Shien. It's a RP-PvE server. My guy's name is Mircir. (Full name in RP : Mircir Cabur.) Level 14ish Sith Assassin. If you wanna Roleplay hit me up!

-Zach

[Zachary0701]

@Zachary0701 I ♥ Early Game Access the first day :D

[MrWowgamer10]

I just got done beta testing this and the sound is the same in game its just too cool!

[Messianic4god]

Love the musi :D

[alvarokas]

feel like entering Naga Sadow's tomb...

[markgriskey]

Glad to hear the positive comments from everyone... Very much appreciated! -Mark

[limwire5]

@markgriskey ur a fake... I think.

[Th3D4nny]

@limwire5 hehe, he finds your lack of faith disturbing.

[xxxScoutSniperxxx]

@markgriskey I find it remarkable that even the creator and composer comments on the Youtube posts. That really shows a connection to the fans; it shows that we aren't just numbers. It shows that the team really cares about its product, and in turn, shows that it really cares about us, the fans.

[Klaatuu42]

@markgriskey Shivers up and down my spine from the moment this song started until the moment it finished. Fantastic composition, Mark!

[Starr3712]

@markgriskey Great job with this song man, you really captured the atmosphere appropriate of the planet that is the home world of the Sith.

[juresaiyan]

@markgriskey you are amazing Mark. AMAZING! I might buy the collectors edition JUST for the OST.

[Zachary0701]

@juresaiyan The Collector's Edition is WELL WORTH the $150.00 USD. I should know, as I'm one of the Collector Edition Owners.

-Zach

[Kevster921]

@markgriskey All the positive feedback is well deserved, man. Keep doing what you do, because you're awesome at it.

[TheMentesh]

@markgriskey Incredible... I've been a looong time RPG fan, played everything from Iron Lord to Ultima VI to WoW. Two of my all-time favorite RPG soundtracks were KOTOR II: TSL and Ultima VIII: Pagan. This track captures the "Sith Lords Theme" with the eerie atmosphere of "Catacombs" from the latter... Too good to be true :)

[Markkahanding]

@markgriskey What was the soundtrack called that was released that started with the cello's doing arrpeggio's :o

PLEASE TELL ME :(

[tupacandeazyefan]

@markgriskey

great work dude ...whats the title of the music playing in the background of that epic commercial with that epic trumpets at the end of the video getting louder? Its so amazing... not sure if you made it tho but maybe you could know

[MrUNITEDTiLLiDIE]

recognize this from KOTOR 2 =D

[Flague95]

is it safe to freeze yourself?

[vadersdemise93]

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE MUSIC!!!!

[broncofanman91]

2 weeks, can't freaking wait.

[XxUndeadXTacoXx]

@broncofanman91 ik I miss playing the beta >.< these few weeks are takeing forever Skyrim is good still but not the same... Rift is old and WoW sucks

[RichmanMoneyEye]

This song is something like World of warcraft wrath of the lich king

[DigitalOberon]

@RichmanMoneyEye They wish.lol

[sedgie09]

@RichmanMoneyEye Hell NOO its not. Nothing like World of warcraft LK. if anything from The original games of Kotor 1-2.

[swesydh]

Oh man, the first 2 seconds I thought "Dreamscape" was coming for me.

[FPSVampire]

December 15th the republic will fall! The republic is out numbered and weak not even the jedi will stop the comming darkness. Embrace the dark side of the force for the possibilities are endless. The Sith Empire will rebuild on the rubble of what was once the weak and pathetic republic.

[TheRevan1337]

@FPSVampire lightside warrior^^

[xombieisback]

@FPSVampire But after Return of the Jedi us Sith get crapped on again :(

[FPSVampire]

@xombieisback Yes but where there are force sensitives the dark side will be waiting for those who desire to know true strength.

[Th3D4nny]

@FPSVampire Yeah you can kill all the Sith, but you cannot destroy the Dark side.

[sajtmester]

Kotor 1's Korriban soundtrack was the best music in the game. I'm really disappointed they left it out in SWTOR. This new track ain't bad, but its nowhere close to the previous one.

[limwire5]

@sajtmester There's bits of the old music in this piece aren't there?

[kOr3uPt]

:( No Australian release... not happy Bioware!

[darthkevgen]

@kOr3uPt There is no IP banning so if you manage to get the game shipped to you, you'll be able to play :)

[iamextremelyawesome]

i had this game pre-ordered and then arrow knee blah blah seriously though i fuckin played the beta for a few weeks in general and it got bad to worse. have fun playing a broken game and trying to not feel guilty about spending so much money up front just to play a FUCKIN UNFINISHED GAME. hate all ya want, faggots. in a few weeks you're gonna get sick of it and regret the 100+ bucks you invested in it. half you vaginas gonna crawl back to wow. the other half will stay all the way till it'sFREE2P

[Samjagstang]

@iamextremelyawesome Incase u didnt realise, BETA = UNFINISHED GAME, I havn't played SWTOR Beta, but seriously dude, any game that is in it's Beta stage is going to have Bugs, glitches and other problems and does not represent the final product in any way. WoW expansion beta's are always very buggy at first, because thats the whole point of a damn beta, for testers to report bugs for the devs to fix, it's not just "Oh lets go play the game early and it will be perefect" derp

[tossingmidgetsforfun]

@Samjagstang I've done some testing in the past couple weeks,And the game is pretty polished for still being in Beta.Yeah theres some bugs,But I only ran into one where i got stuck in one particular spot.The rest of the testing was really anjoyable and I had no more problems with bugs.Its really fun and theres so much to do.And the PvP Warzones were well thought out and well done,This kid is just whining,Wanting someone to pay attention to him

[darthkevgen]

@Samjagstang At last, someone who think !

[androkles04]

@iamextremelyawesome Ohh, a scary troll... -.-' Go back to your mom.

[Zachary0701]

@iamextremelyawesome " U Jelly? " -Throws a stone to you're balls- There, a New line for you jackass :D I've watched people play LIVE FEED as well as had a glimpse at it and played it Myself for a few hours. It is an epic game. Lovely story-line. Who gives a shit about graphics? ... Bioware has done an amazing job and will continue to do so. Even though everyone has the right to a opinion. You, are a fucking idiot. This is My opinion.

-Zach

[Tiberion890]

Now this is a theme song for every Sith out there looking for destruction and mayhem in the Galaxy...

[zmann4444]

Great song, actually terrifyingly great song! Really puts me in the mood to kill some jedi!

[DigitalOberon]

I don't think anyone has captured the true malevolence of the Sith like Mark Griskey. His themes for the various Sith lords in KOTOR II were absolutely frightening. Darth Nihilus' Theme sounds like something that Lovecraft would have been proud to have attached to one of his Old Gods. Dark, sinister, ancient, and horrifying in a beautiful way.

This has shades of all of those themes.

Mark Griskey is definitely one of the great composers of dark orchestral Star Wars themes.

[Mithrandilferalis]

Wow, one heck of an intro. Makes even the manliest man grab his blanky.

[azkitanmoreno123]

Am I going to be able to buy a soundtrack?

[Adrian1thebest1]

@azkitanmoreno123 Comes with the collectors edition

[ThomasWA86]

@Adrian1thebest1 Actually, the soundtrack included in the Collector's Edition is not complete. From the original post:

The Collector’s Edition of Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ includes seventeen original tracks, but this is just a small sampling of the breadth of music that was composed specifically for the game. As we count down the days until our December 20th launch, we want you to experience the entire original score!

[mjdd75]

@Adrian1thebest1 These tracks are not included on the collector editions cd.

[1492mjb]

I hear cues of The Sith Lords in here.... yes!

[sedgie09]

is it just me or does any one get a Nostalgic feeling like there inner evil/darkside starts to anger you when you listen to this song.

love this soundtrack its awesome.

[Wolfesscythe117]

Back when I was young, my teacher asked the class to go home and watch something about history. When she asked what I watched, I said Star Wars. She said "That's not history." I said "it was in a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away."

[DragonEX200]

@Wolfesscythe117 you should have said it's cinematic history...

[TheChuchulainn]

@Wolfesscythe117 You can also say it's history because all Star Wars is based on human history.

[JediHeady]

Nearly there. Almost 6 years of waiting, finally comes to an end.

[gmmg93]

this is what years of waiting for this game sounds like!

[x82ndODSTx]

Anyone recognize the bits from KOTOR's Korriban theme?

[Arnold13468]

december 15th is also my birthday :D I WONDER WHAT I'LL GET LOL

[sedgie09]

@Arnold13468 why you say dec 15th the game is not out till 20th december thought my B-day is on the 21st so to your comment I wonder what i'll get lmao. unless you mean the soundtrack ofc lols.

[bleed1379]

@sedgie09 people that pre-order it get to play the game starting on the 15th

[sedgie09]

@bleed1379 ah yeah i kinda forgot about that my bad lols :) :) but still cool thought can't wait to play this its a game i'v been waiting for for about 3 years now well since i first heard about it. :)

[Arnold13468]

@sedgie09

i saw the wrapping, my dad bought the game and reseved something so I get 1 week early access

[Zachary0701]

@Arnold13468 Very nice :-) ... Maybe next time you're dad will try to hide it abit harder so you will be more excited? xD Anyway, it's going to be an awesome game! See you at launch!

-Zach

[FrEEBoredomkills]

@Arnold13468 Early access is 5 days in advance, not a week, and dependant on when you pre-ordered the game determines when you get early access. i.e. the earlier you pre-ordered, the earlier you get early access

[lediadruid]

Nice.

[HarryBillyBobGeorge]

2:45 OH MY GOD! MARK, I FUCKING LOVE YOU! I LOVE YOU! YES!

[setsunafseieiGN0000]

Definitely an appropriate theme for Sith. :D

[ManicOne80]

BEST GAME SOUNDTRACK EVER!!!!!

[ragnargrinde93]

I was playing this song while playing minecraft... 01:50 - Creeper shows up...

[Mesemaci]

I feel the power trough the music. It is awesome.

The "Dark Side" is asking my service and i will make the republic bow in front of my power.

[MrDiddydodd]

im a bit confused about the preordering of this game. do we go into the game store we preordered from to collect a copy or do we pay for it via card on the day early access is granted?

[dukrous]

@MrDiddydodd If you preordered from a store, you can download the client before and get in on the 15th as long as you entered your preorder code.

On the 20th, you'll go back to the store and collect your copy of the game and enter the code in the box to continue playing. If you don't get your copy on the 20th, you won't be able to log in.

[MrDiddydodd]

@dukrous alright mate, cheers for clarifying that pal.

[BlackJackInc11]

@MrDiddydodd It all depends on how you preordered. If you preordered from the store you need to go to the store and pick the game up on Dec 20th. If you preorded online from somewhere like Origins or Amazon, the game will be shipped to you.

In terms of Early Access. It's staggered based on when you entered your preorder code on the official website. If you preordered from a store you should have recieved a code from them. you can't get early access till you punch in that code.

[josedelachapelle]

2:46 kotor2

[SharenatorDarkicoN]

Eh Mandalorian Blockade was better. Made walking to the bus epic!

[SPYKE034]

Great theme for Korriban. Even a part of KOTOR 2 soundtrack in the middle there. Perfect!!! Cant wait for more

[Viperoxide]

HURRY UP DECEMBER 15TH!!!

[Indabaz]

@Viperoxide cant get here soon enough

[SuRihtanil]

@Viperoxide IF! you get picked.  lol I am unlucky so mine will probably be the 19th.

[StealthyTroll]

@Viperoxide Lucky I didn't preorder it soon enough

[TheRevan1337]

@Viperoxide pre order ^^

[punkyoliciousness]

woohoo i love swtor!!!!!!

[spiralsin]

Looking forward to this in my CE.

[zach22zach22]

@spiralsin this wont be in your CE, the music they are releasing daily now are all tracks NOT included in the CE. i was pissed too.

[LoTSDark]

@zach22zach22 At least we will have all of them now :D

[spiralsin]

@zach22zach22 Thanks for pointing that out. Oh well, I'm not really pissed. From what I understand, the CE tracks are still exclusive and won't be released daily. Like another poster said, at least the CE owners will have all the tracks now. They'll all end up on a torrent site eventually anyway.

[Drathgore]

very nice



[DrakeNecrosis]

Next Halloween, this is what I'll be playing for trick or treaters.

[ijmert2]
