I am the composer of this music cue and this version was made from the original master recording.
So for you Mass Effect 2 Fans here is perhaps one of the oddest "making of stories" you will hear. This track "Lo Fi Epic" was actually composed for the EA Sports Arena Football game in February of 2006 but never saw the light of day, hitting the cutting room floor after a producer nixed it for being "Too Techno" . The track went into the music archives and lived on the main server network for years.
Fast forward to 2010 when I was sitting down with my new copy of Mass Effect 2. I am a huge Mass Effect fan, I had played through version 1 many times. So one can only imagine my reaction when I walked into the lower level of "Club Afterlife" and heard this track... At first I said "hummm that sounds very familiar" then it hit me "Holy crap I wrote that!".
Sadly I was not credited in the game for this piece of music but neither was:
Saki Kaskas - Callista - Upper Club Afterlife (Originally used in Need For Speed Hot Pursuit)
John Morgan - Happiness - Dark Star Lounge
Comaduster - To Hide To Seek - Eternity Bar
This story got even crazier when I Googled the name of the ME2 planet this music was found on, there was a user on You Tube that had extracted the file from the PC version of the game and identified me as the composer; his video had over 100,000 views with many comments about who wrote it and where they could find it. EA Traxx or whoever passed along the cue to Bioware renamed the track "The Techno Madness Mix" but had left my name in file name or metadata.
I had actually met the sound design team for Mass Effect up in Canada during a sound design for video game meeting; Simon Pressy the Mass Effect audio director and I talked at length during that meeting, I expressed my interest and support for their projects. While working on Warhammer I even helped produced some sounds for their games to use. So I can't say I don't know how this all happened but in my wildest dreams I would have never imagined Lo Fi Epic making it into Mass Effect 2 much less the fans reaction to this track (Thank you all). I even got an email from the Mass Effects' main composer Jack Wall that stated he heard so many good things from fans about "Lo Fi Epic" (Of course I am in awe of Jacks score for the game).
Hearing "Lo Fi Epic" in game reminds me of the days when I use to have acetates cut of my music and taking it to clubs. That feeling of watching hundreds of people dance to something I created was beyond words... this track in Mass Effect immortalized that feeling for me. Anyway that is the crazy story of Lo Fi Epic and Mass Effect 2.
Due to the license I was under when I composed the original version I can't offer a download link but feel free to listen to it here and check out all my other original music I have posted on my you tube channel.

Finnish Black Metal.
From the "Astral Majesty" Demo 1997
Lyrics:
Infested with infernal power
Astral breed, His hellish sower
Majesty in its purest form
Descendant of the stars, reality is torn
Thus dread me mortal, for I am inhuman
Missionary of wrath, Disciple of hell
The mark burned to my skin
His symbol, in the end I'll win
The beginning of a crusade merciless
Paradise, my heaven is emptiness
Thus die for me mortal, for I am vengeful
Preacher of doom, slayer of hypocrites
Through infinite eyes I shall see.....
So profound...
The beginning and the end...
It's all the same...
From which all started, all will end again...
Life nor death grasps me no longer
Immortal, and growing stronger
And though time is now nonexistant to me
In the end, in peace I will also be
Nothing is now unknown to me
Yet I can hardly recognize my being
But the Astral Majesty is finally revealed
And with it, my destiny is sealed....
Forever.....
