AI War: Ancient Shadows OST (Preview & Info)

[keith.lamothe]

My only complaint is Soundcloud hides the @!#!#!!!!!#$@#$@#!$@#!!!! volume controller on me.  Nearly blew out my desktop speakers.   

The AI strikes again!

For those of you who were into the Rock/Electric Guitar tracks of the original game, here's a new one from the new expansion.

Look out for the entire soundtrack to be complete and on sale next week!

Cool track. 

My only complaint is Soundcloud hides the @!#!#!!!!!#$@#$@#!$@#!!!! volume controller on me.  Nearly blew out my desktop speakers.   

That track is best listened to at that volume, so that's ok

When he first shared that with us internally, I'm sure my downstairs neighbor heard it too.

Ironclad is so good. One of the things I always look forward to with AI War expansions is new tracks from you Pablo. I love how atypical your work is in the field of gaming, especially in the RTS genre which is really overdone with militant marches.

And now I'm getting almost 100 minutes of awesome music with Ancient Shadows? This is absolutely astounding and worth the price of admission right there. I honestly feel like one of the big reasons I can sink hours into AI War no problem is your wonderful soundtrack work.

One word Pablo: Bandcamp.

[PVega8]

Not to worry, that's the plan. We're just getting an album cover together and once that's done, the soundtrack will be up.

[Mánagarmr]

Awesome! I'm still waiting for the second part of the AVWW album as well. Are you planning on putting that up? There are quite a few songs missing from the first, among them some of my favourites.

Yes, I too am interested in the second part of AVWW .

[PVega8]

Yep! Valley 2 will have a bunch of music. I'm working on that now. Ancient Shadows took priority spot for the last month.

[Mánagarmr]

Actually I was referring to the missing tunes from AVWW 1.

[Oralordos]

But Valley 2 having new music is awesome too!

Well, this goes without saying

I just want to say that the original tracks for AI War, though excellent, didn't really feel cohesive with the game itself until I had played it so much that now I can't imagine any other music accompanying my AI Wars. 

This, on the other hand, is not only a big step up from the original soundtrack, it also feels really cohesive (style-wise) and feels like "f*ck yeah AI War!" in a way that the original soundtrack didn't, at least for me.  So kudos! 

Out of curiosity, are there any plans to update the original soundtrack (again) in any way, or do you think they're good the way they are currently?

[PVega8]

I'm currently getting my certification in audio engineering. I have a feeling I'm going to re-edit all the music at some point. Work in progress.

For those of you interested, the AI War: Ancient Shadows OST is going on sale this afternoon on BandCamp. I will make a post when it's officially available.
