  • I love this soundtrack, it sends a chill down my spine....then back up it again!

  • Best of both worlds made me become a writer.

  • Ah, Ron Jones... The first composer ever to be fired for being too good.

  • Is it possible for you to do more of these? (Star trek ones in general)

  • where did u get the soundtrack ive been looking for it and cant find it

  • The first five seconds actually sounds like something from Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope.

  • Still keep coming back tolisten to this one :)

  • I like it, makes the colors blur.

  • Best music i've EVER heard. So vivid and mystical.

  • is this a darker version of the first star trek movie?

  • Comment removed

  • The best episode of Star Trek Ever! Brilliant work thanks for posting it

  • Great video. Appreciate the upload :)

  • The music in the first half of TNG's run was so awesome. Even the crappy episodes in the first season had great scores.

    And then they fired Ron Jones and neutered Chattaway and McCarthy. Brilliant plan "Mr. Executive Producer"

  • there's something about this music that makes the Borg seem so much more otherworldly and frightening than the watered down baddies they became later. And Ron Jones rules.

  • wow its so weird watching it with just the music

  • @Aquien1 But yet, I can still hear the dialogue, in my head anyway.

  • Is it bad that without even watching the video, I can, with a fair degree of accuracy, say the lines for the actors?

    (BEST. TREK. EPISODE. EVAR.)

  • me too. Picard"I am Captain Jean-Luc Picard---" Borg"Jean-Luc Picard,Captain of the Starship Enterprise registry NCC-1701-D. You will lower your shields and prepare to transport yourself aboard our vessel. If you do not cooperate we will destroy your ship."

  • Ron Jones's score were always awesome in those epic arc storylines for the Next Gen ...it's a shame he was fired at some point.

  • I agree.

    But I'm glad that Interplay got Ron Jones to make some tracks for the games Star Trek: Starfleet Academy and Star Trek: Starfleet Command.

  • i used to be Q but i found it boring.

  • i always felt that this episode felt more like a movie compared to every other episode who agrees with me

  • Definitely and I know a lot of critics have said the same thing. It was either TV Guide or another magazine that rated this episode as the best in the series, and also one of the best "TV moments" of all time.

  • In my opinion it easily supercedes both Star Trek Generations and Inscurretion if you're looking for a nice Star Trek "movie" with the TNG crew.

  • ...oh, and of course the PoS "Nemesis", too....

  • @jpfeiffer001 It does if you watch the full feature length version

  • @jpfeiffer001 That's not far and you know it. Compared to the TNG movies (except, to a lesser extent, First Contact), this is Citizen Kane and they are Micheal Bay and Uwe Boll collaborating.

  • @jpfeiffer001 I've read that Ron Jones composed every episode (before being fired, of course) as if it were its own movie, with different themes depending.

  • 3:20 and onwards - absolutely brilliant

  • Epic music to an epic episode!

  • The great Ron Jones was fired by producer Rick Berman for writing great scores like this. Shame on Berman - that disregard for style is what caused the slow death of ST. I hope and pray Paramount hires Jones to score a Trek movie one day.

  • there is a user named SFDEBRIS on youtube that expresses this exact same sentiment, he reviews episodes of trek once a week. i'd suggest you watch his review of the neutral zone and Q who

  • yeah, the opinionated guides are awesome, I hope bethesday gets ron jones for their next trek movie, maybe have it like a combination of Fallout 3, Starfleet Academy and bridge commander (especially if it features some of the abilities the mods gave both games) set during the Dominion War.

    now THAT would be something, Ron Jones score during Dominion War scenes.

  • sorry I was half asleep when I wrote that, just came back to listen to this track again and I noticed how horrible the spelling and grammar errors are.

    I ment Bethesda for their next Trek Game.

  • 2:44 = EPIC MANEUVER!

  • Brilliant video, I love watching it with just the score, I hope to see many more videos like this, good work!

  • Jean-Luc Picard Captain of the starship Enterprise registry NCC 1701-D. You will lower your shields and transport yourself aboard our vessel. If you do not cooperate we will destroy your ship

  • I've always liked that line when I was a kind

  • Worf: Sir you are being hailed.

    Picard: I am?

    Worf: Yes captain, by name.

    Riker: Data is the same ship we faced at J-25?

    Data: Uncertain commander but the dimensions are precisely the same.

    Picard: On Screen, This is Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the...

  • hmmmmm very interesting

  • I have watched this episode like a billion times I can say everything in the episode before they do. lol

  • This is a phenomenal idea, thank you!

  • Dude! thanks so much. Ron Jones kicked all kinds of ass with this score. It is some the best incidental music ever made for television.

  • I agree, the score is one of the most stand-out elements of an already stand-out piece of work-- the chilling 5-tone refrain at the start, replayed throughout here and of course, when they first engage the Borg, is goosebump-inducing. Portentous, almost as though they were facing a supernatural enemy. Outstanding score.

  • star trek is also known for its grand music!

  • It's isolated music. What do you expect?

  • Do you think you can post anymore videos with some music I really enjoy.

  • post the "Graveyard of ships" err whatever it was called

  • Excellent Idea - I used to have a copy of the soundrack but stupidly lost it in one of my many moves, some of the best TV scoring ever attempted.

  • Yes, I agree with you. It's a very atmospheric soundtrack, one of the best I've ever heard on TV, by far.
