In Response To: Marathon Trilogy Ambient Music (thoth43)

: Hey all. It's been so long since I've posted here, but for some reason I
: remembered these great songs that were included on the Marathon Trilogy
: bonus CD that had all the competition maps and extra physics and sound
: files from fans. Anyway, one of them had these great ambient songs that
: replaced some of the normal ambient sounds. I don't recall the name of it,
: but I recall that in the readme the author lamented that they ended up
: sounding like Tomb Raider music or some such. Hopefully someone knows what
: I'm talking about.

: So, fast forward to now, I don't have a Mac anymore and I wanted to know if
: there was a way I could get that music from the CD somehow or if anyone
: has ever uploaded it somewhere.

: Thanks in advance!

: Mike

Hi Mike,

Welcome back. :)

Lots of files on the Trilogy Map Collection CD. However, thanks to a BBEdit text search the sounds you are referring to are Nick Singer's Atmospheric Sounds. It came in the form of patch which replaces the ambient sounds in Marathon Infinity. He refers to some of his replacement sounds sounding "a bit like Tomb Raider...".

Anyway as these are by Nick Singer they should be good quality stuff. If anyone wants to try and extract these they can be found on the Map Collection CD -> Marathon Infinity -> Shapes/Sounds -> Atmospheric Sounds.

You can also get them at archives.bungie.org. Use the search page

http://archives.bungie.org/search.html

and seach for Atmospheric Sounds.

In his Read Me, Nick also makes reference to his Marathon Remix 1&2. Which I am assuming is music. So that should be worth looking for.

Cheers
Hamish
