The soundtrack to Total Annihilation has to be the very best of Jeremy Soule. The game its self was epic, I still play it. Unfortunetly, Supreme commander fails ;(
@Teefiz the remake was supreme commander 1 and 2, jeremy soule actually did the music for supreme commander 1, and while it was pretty good, it wasnt as awesome as the TA soundtrack.
@Teefiz there is, Its called Supreme Commander but I think it lack the soul total annihilation had. I was disappointed when people had to be involved in the story line. What was ever wrong with a war between machines that had decimated a million worlds?
Oh how I miss the old TA days... It's still not dead however! It's called TA Spring! It's 3D and all patched up. Old computers can run it well enough. Oh... and it's free :)
El primer juego de estrategia que toque cuando tenia apenas 6 o 7 años. Me pasaba los días en los que me encontraba malo jugando con la estufa debajo de la mesa hahah. El mejor juego que he conocido y el único que me ha hecho llorar al recordarlo. Por esas partidas de escaramuza que nunca acababan!
Why Soule didn't go on to be a leading film composer, I'll never know. Much of this TA music beats a lot of epic film scores of the last 25 years - of course they would need to be expanded, but the main themes are far too strong to be stuck away on an old PC computer game that most people will never know about.
I can't pick a favorite song because they're all so badass, but I really really liked the wind instruments in this one, it gives me goosebumps when I think of a massive invasion on a beachead.
@MelissiaBlackheart it is an emotive piece, and Jeremy Soule was in his early 20's when he wrote the TA soundtrack! Maybe he's a reincarnation of Bach or Mozart :)
Just Imagine charging into battle, your country's flag flying high above you, and as you run through the smoke drenched battlefield, the sun shining in the sky peeking through the smoke, tanks rush out in front of you firing at the enemy and fighter jets zoom overhead, then you see it, a massive battle taking place and you are right in front of everyone, and all your men are looking up to you to lead a gallant final charge against dreadful odds,
yet somehow you fight your way through, destroying all opposition, your men yelling in pride and victory, for you just drove the enemy away forever.......
When I used to listen to this masterwork I really loved the part from 0:44 to 0:55 and imagined I was a bird soaring through the air above the forest green :-)
i can't understand how a person can create a song SOOOOO wonderful and brilliant like this! T.A. have the most beautiful game soundtracks of all times...
Every time I hear this one at the start I keep seeing the commander standing on the front of a battleship sailing into battle with a fleet right behind him.
lol and i think thats one of the things i love most about this game, that 1 single unit can wreak so much havock yet can be so easily destroyed with out proper support. MY ARM COMMANDER IS A SAVAGE!!!
But it doesn't really do it with Spring and SC, A remake is needed! Someone ought to gather some people and make them start the development again! (BTW, SC is awesome!)
to me, this goes well with a scene of a resistence making its final stand. its final assault on the usurpertarian powers. driving deep into their heartland. i imagine this scene happening on a clear day, no clouds at all(to symbolize clarity of the goal)all the rebel forces are armed and on the move, and moving quickly and as they pull up to a revine they catch a wide view of their enemy at its peak strength. and when theyre about to move in some one yells "lets give 'em hell boys!"
anyone thinks the intro sounds like a newscast intro-music?
