Mass Effect - Galaxy Map Concept Music

This was the very first run at the galaxy map/travel music in Mass Effect 1, before I wrote "Uncharted Worlds" which became the official galaxy map tune.

Nice. I would have liked to see this somewhere in either Mass Effect 1 or 2. Did you ever have leitmotifs or ideas not used for the first game that you revisited for the second?

[MDesigner]

@isaacvail Actually, no.. all the stuff I wrote for ME2 was written specifically for ME2. There are a couple unused tracks from ME1 I wanted to carry over, but they just didn't work anywhere.

[bandofbrothersmovie]

@MDesigner because these tracks will never be used, care to post them on YouTube for us to hear and admire?

[MDesigner]

@bandofbrothersmovie I think I've posted up everything I'm allowed to!

@MDesigner Omg .. if you really created the galaxy map theme of ME1/2 ... i cant thank you enough and cant admire you enough ... Your musical masterpiece fits PERFECTLY to the space and mass effect ... it makes such an atmosphere .. i get goosebumps and all kinds of fantasys about space travel rush through my mind ... pls reply ... your the best

[MDesigner]

@chabi3000 Thanks, glad you like it so much! :)

I just wanted to let you know, you are just amazing. Your work is so inspiring, and I listen to Uncharted Worlds and New Worlds every day, every waking moment I possibly can. Thank you for such awesome music. I love your peaces with ostinatos and polyrhythms. Do you have any others that are not shared?

[Ariashal]

I don't know if you can imagine how much the fact that you share your ingenious music with us inspires and means to us.

We love hearing the precursors of the refined, touched-up soundtrack that we experience so powerfully in the game, and the fact that we feel that much closer to a person who had such an integral part in the series is unbelievably exciting!

Thanks for sharing again!

this song is cool too but there's just something about uncharted worlds :-)

[ClankytheGorn]

I feel like I've heard this before.

[bladerunner162]

Great to hear your back for ME3, Loved the sound or the track you did at the start of the CE promo. Keep it up!

[triiistone]

Awesome track, but I absolutely LOVE the uncharted worlds.

[KnightSeptus]

This sounds a lot like the character creation theme from ME 2! I like it a lot.

I really love these "behind-the-scenes" tracks!

Your music is touching and I love all that you've done for this great series. Keep it up, man.

[TMPanos96]

This has GOT to be used in Mass Effect 3. Uncharted Worlds is good, but I think this is better :)

[happysmi1eyface]

@APackOfMentats: I totally agree with you.

[APackOfMentats]

The first 20 seconds or so are perfect, If the crescendo in the middle was a little less intense the whole thing would be great.

[lmgallina]

I set my alarm clock to play Uncharted Worlds, so every morning I wake up listening that song. It's awesome!

[Mcheetah]

So, wait... you're the ACTUAL GUY who recorded that incredible theme which will forever play in my head every time I think of deep space?
