Mass Effect Victory Theme Development

This video shows how I developed the Mass Effect "Victory" piece, starting the concept out as a piano sketch. The victory tune you hear in this video is a bit different than the one used in the game & the soundtrack. I actually prefer this version. ;)

Wow, I love this. What could possibly make them chose the official cheesy one? (if I remember it correctly).

[MDesigner]

@ZoneBaracking Er, I hope the official one wasn't cheesy, because I wrote it, and it wasn't too far from this version really.

Nice soundtrack.

I have one question do you make music for Mass Effect 2?

[MDesigner]

@AlisherUA Sorry I couldn't answer this question for the longest time (legal reasons) but yes.. I did work on Mass Effect 2.

@MDesigner Were you the one who wrote 'Suicide Mission'?

[MDesigner]

@RXdash78 Nope, that was Jack.

They should use this as the victory theme in mass Effect 3.

Apparently, the evolution of THIS became the Mass Effect 3 demo's start music.

I hear this version is sort of coming back with the music teaser Bioware released for ME3, glad to hear you're working on it, I'm sure you'll keep Clint in check :p

[IrishVagrant]

@MDesigner Hehe, don't worry, it wasn't IMO. This is a bit better though, I think. Either way, a really great tune.

[Aljeron100]

Heard you were back for ME3!

Congrats in making ME3 better than ever! :D

[BringDownTheSky2186]

Got goosebumps, especially with the snare parts. :D Great job, Sam! I can't wait for the ME3 OST to be released!

[MrJonathan107]

@Fightforthelost Turns out they kinda did XD

[Gr1Ng00]

@MDesigner ^^ no it wasn´t cheesy ! :P thx for that musik, and the epic feelings !!! :P

The percussion in ME2 sounds a lot like SD2. Is the soundtrack completely software-rendered, or were the orchestral parts actually being recorded live?
