If you played Command & Conquer, Dune, Lands of Lore - Throne of chaos, Bladerunner or Legend of Kyrandia, you'll find some of this music here on the site of the author who made the music for the mentioned games, too:

The site of Frank Klepacki

Thanks and credits go to Stroggy to place a link to this cool site much earlier in the forum.

I didn't know about this site... but I really liked it
It got a nice design and you can hear the music :w00t:
thanks

Loved the track "Hell March" from C&C Red Alert
Thanks for the link :D

another fine musician

responsible for the Hitman series soundtrack for instance.

The soundtrack of the game Freedom Fighters is well worht listening to.

Scarface 21-01-2005 01:29 AM

Hitman is one of my favorites games
I'm gonna check it out

Gaunt 21-01-2005 02:56 PM

If I recall correctly, if you've still got the original C&C cd and just shove it in your hi-fi it plays the soundtrack

These should be placed on the music section of the main site...
somebody should contact the author for permission

Stroggy 21-01-2005 03:13 PM

Frank Klepacki has authorized a few sites to put his music up, but there is one catch: you musn't be able to download the music. Just like on his site, you don't download the music directly unto your computer.

Don't forget to check out his monthly specials, there are some pretty unique tunes in there and I always check it out.

:sick:

Stroggy 21-01-2005 03:24 PM

I'm sorry, thats the restriction he imposes.
His CDs are for sale, even I got hold of one.

Omuletzu 21-01-2005 03:26 PM

Even if it would be available for purchase here in romania, i wouldn't buy it.Although the music in C&C is excellent, i wouldn't listen to it all day long.I just wanted the denizens of abandonia to listen to the tracks, but the author seems to have other (greedy) intentions :angry:

Stroggy 21-01-2005 03:43 PM

You can hardly call him greedy, he offers a whole lot of his music up for free. Anybody could just record it.

I really don't get you, an artist who is trying to make a living is greedy just because he doesn't offer his entire work up for download?

Ioncannon 22-01-2005 01:04 PM

if you are cheap, get XCC and rip the music off your cnc games LOL. BTW my fav is Act on Instinct and Mechanical Man. Also I love the music in CNC Renagade! Renegade was such a fun online multiplayer game :D

No, you're exagerating this just to make a point, and it's not working!I'm just saying that old tunes(which are exceptional by the way) should be freely available!
See this is like selling abw, only in this case the author is not charging money, but restraining access to media.You made great tunes, but now let go of them, make them available!
But anyway this is :ot:
Sorry for ruining this!
:bye:

Thats what I did, I don't exactly call it cheap since I did pay for the game (music included)

Yeah, I liked Mechanical Man also! It just stays in your mind, so addictive...

Koen 02-02-2005 07:15 AM

There's a cool remix of act on instinct at the bottom of the list in the 'CnC series' category
