Ironbong	Posted - 2010.12.06 21:59:00 - [1] is there any where where you can get all of the sound tracks from Eve since the begining. I am not sure if the music has changed over the years, but I started playing around 2006 and then had a 3 year absence. I remember the music then was awesome but it sounds like it may be different now when I started playing again, so I was hoping to get all the sound tracks ever made for this game and have them in my jukebox if that is possible
captain foivos	Posted - 2010.12.06 22:01:00 - [2] Eve has sound? Also first, and first with that joke, and inb4 people saying inb4 about the sound. Originally by: CCP Zulu You're assuming I read threads before I turdpost in them :)
eek amouse	Posted - 2010.12.06 22:35:00 - [3] Edited by: eek amouse on 06/12/2010 22:36:39 i took a break from eve and came back and the only new sound was that kinda creepy evil sound that comes from worm holes. imo, playing without sound effects only hinders you in pvp. this thread is now about sound in pvp. glass bongs are also better than iron bongs. this thread is now about bongs.
MotherMoon Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2010.12.06 22:50:00 - [4] handle it with care There is some kickass music in there. I play this in the custom jukebox while i play eve since most of the tracks are tied to sties that I never hear because I don't run missions.

Amazing BADASS1!11 seriously, it doesn't even sound like game music, it's one of the 1st games to have more movie sounding music.
Headerman Minmatar Metanoia. Test Alliance Please Ignore	Posted - 2010.12.07 00:02:00 - [7] This is my favourite: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKjxOX0SEKY&feature=related Closely followed by http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6rxWVvYT7M&feature=related
Sig Sour	Posted - 2010.12.07 00:35:00 - [8] Originally by: MotherMoon seriously, it doesn't even sound like game music, it's one of the 1st games to have more movie sounding music. First of all, can you put some eve music behind a movie trailer to back that statement up? Second, is eve the only game you play? There are a lot of games that do have Hollywood sound, Eve is not one of them.
Janos Saal	Posted - 2010.12.07 00:57:00 - [9] I want the new incursion music that plays on the sign-in screen, but it doesn't seem to be in EVE's music folder.
Piyale Pasa	Posted - 2010.12.07 01:04:00 - [10] EVE Online's ambient music reminds me of Mankind's music, look it up if u like..
Rpeg Minmatar Native Freshfood	Posted - 2010.12.07 02:21:00 - [11] Originally by: MotherMoon whats not forward thinking about this? pretty cool It sounds like a fairly established genre called ambient music of which gained it's foundation in the late 70s from Brian Eno and then through works like, Selected Ambient Works from Aphex Twin. Originally by: MotherMoon Or this? Amazing It stems from industrial music from the late 80s and early 90s and probably has a bit of acid jazz in it. There is nothing new about that piece of music however. Originally by: MotherMoon BADASS1!11\ oh man, when the music dropped off at 3:00, and the spacey music comes in, and then the creepy horror flutes come in, and it swells and swells and unitllll.... BAM the trumpets! 4:17 followed by a car engine sound and some tubas, oh **** man it gets real. This is industrial music with a bit of breakbeat. Nothing new here. Again, my argument isn't that it's not good game music. My argument is that conceptually it doesn't fit into the idea of being music from the future. It's music of right now or even 20 years ago! It is not cutting edge. It is NOT forward thinking. The game deals with fascinating science fiction concepts. The music however does not. -- autechre - ep7 - track 1: rpeg estevancarlos.com

There are a lot of games that do have Hollywood sound, Eve is not one of them. 2 things. were talking 7 years ago, age of the game. Not that make up a language and have people in a choir sing nonsense bull**** that's in everything from lord of the rings to super smash brothers. God I'm so sick of it, it's not original, it doesn't add much to the feel, it's jsut the same thing, if you weren't looking at the screen you wouldn't know what movie you were watching. So yes I think the tracks in eve are Hollywood quality.(were talking the music you hear the whole movie but doesn't get in the way of it) also I've played lots of games, and ton of other games have creative original music that you can listen to outside of playing the game, or music that is just wow. Jet set radio comes to mind.

There is nothing new about that piece of music however. ok while you have some good points, arguing that a piece of music has nothing "new" about it, is pointless. You can argue that any music made now has nothing new in it by comparing it to the past 5000 years we have of it. mute point. I was taking about for video games, the music used in eve, espicaly mmos. Most mmos hyst **** out music without even thinking about it. The music in eve sounds right of the 5th element. That's cool. original? you bring me music that is original and new that was made in 2010 and then I'll agree your point holds meaning.

The game deals with fascinating science fiction concepts. The music however does not. What IS forward thinking music? please enlighten me. and please don't say "sci fi" music, that is far from forward thinking music. Like this song, La Bionda Is this what you want when you think forward thinking? p.s.(btw, I love that song :P) Also one final point, the more action music is not very "forward" even if I think it's great. But the 70 tracks of ambient is wonderful. I think the live performance of it prove that well. Eve music live Quote:** My argument is that conceptually it doesn't fit into the idea of being music from the future. Ok I lied, one more last thing. Please explain to me how you can make music from the future? The only way this would work would be if it was music no one had ever heard, which in the act of being created, would cease to be music from the future. Forward thinking conceptual music would take musicological matters into consideration. What will the technology be like in the future? How could trends change? What cultural influences would exist or not exist? It's amazing the science fiction has the ease of proposing theoretical scenarios of the future based on current trends but people don't afford the same licence to music listening. There's no real way to "know" what music in the future would sound like but EVE's music doesn't try (which I'm sure doesn't matter to them). Here's a piece of music that currently has no cache in mainstream music but I suspect this style could have an influence a generation from now: http://www.12k.com/index.php/site/releases/0_r/ And this: http://www.12k.com/index.php/site/releases/spec/ And Autechre: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=acuwRHIWL_o http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSV3Tf0gVPk These pieces of music are not necessarily terribly recent (although the Autechre pieces are from 2008) but they work easily outside the expected framework of familiar music. I personally do not think any of these pieces could be the music of a generation from now or even two. However I do believe they will influence mainstream music. I suspect "future" music will involve more eastern influences including Chinese scales and harmonies. I also believe hiphop will fade into a different rhythmic based genre borrowing from the pieces of music above. But again, it's great that the EVE universe is full of ideas and fiction and fascinating concepts and space stations and imaginary technology and then the music... has nothing to do with all that fantasy and exploration. -- autechre - ep7 - track 1: rpeg estevancarlos.com
MotherMoon Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2010.12.07 04:36:00 - [15] well well, I didn't expect you you post something that was actually "forward" thinking. I thought you were just being a music idoit who though music like I posted was "future" music :P ok, ok so I know what your saying now though, your saying how other country have completely didn't chords than we do, and the whole idea of music is always changing. Your right most music follows the 4/4 time, maybe 3/4 rarely. But even some of the music you posted takes a lot of notes from older classically music with new sounds that break the formula. and still the music we have nowadays would of been almost impossible for the people of the past to even imagine. personally I'm sure a new genre of music will someday emerge, and just like every other new form of music that came out before it, it will surprize us, and in the future people will once agian think "there are no new genre that can happen. it's the same with art styles, game genres, food even. But yeah I'll give Autechre credit for trying something that does sound "new" and is if nothing forward "thinking" So I have a better idea of what you meant. However I would say Autechre sounds like it has it's roots in Atonal music which has it's roots in the 50s with a touch of breakbeat, nothing new here. see how easy that is? edit: for you non music heads, Atonal or Musique Concrete. It's as far back as you can go without wanting to define what defines electronic music. The idea is that since every musical theory that exists has already been done before, the only thing left to explore is non-musical music theory. It happened with a lot of post-war musicians hell bent on making non-music. Using things like magnetic tape and transistors and vacuum tubes. "I personally think that the guys, being musicians first and technologists second, got their hands on all sorts of musical equipment that they didn't know how to use, but they were intellectual enough to bull** their way through using it by pretending their post-modern crap compositions were really nouveau "art". Of course, in 20 years the tables would be turned: electronic music would be made by science and math nerds who didn't know a shred about music. There's probably a poignant lesson to be learned from all this, but I can't think of one without sounding like a pretentious **tool." So in fact it's good to hear a more mainstream exposure band going down the route of old. Because lets be honest, there have been music nerds trying to break musical theory for the past 50 years, you just don't hear it outside of a few peoples basements :P and interestingly Atonal is the father to minimalism and ambient, which imo is more of the genre most of eves music fits into. but yeah more mainstream so people could stand it. I think those genre despite being so old are the future of music, just a lost forgotten genre because no one could play it on the radio. Like chiptunes, there some huge artist coming out now making what used to be "video game music" real music. And I'm loving the internet. Think about how the information era will change the face of music, it's so easy to share your music now. hard to find, but easy to share :P
Foofad Gallente	Posted - 2010.12.07 04:39:00 - [16] Rpeg, your examples are so tremendously boring to me I can't even finish them. The lack of melody and the pretentious artificial complexity is so wearying it makes me wonder who could listen to an entire album and not be turned mad.
Rpeg Minmatar Native Freshfood	Posted - 2010.12.07 04:52:00 - [17] Originally by: Foofad Rpeg, your examples are so tremendously boring to me I can't even finish them. The lack of melody and the pretentious artificial complexity is so wearying it makes me wonder who could listen to an entire album and not be turned mad. The first two are about minimalism. Autechre is about other things and yes, if I had a nickel for every time someone has said exactly what you just said... However you should consider that our tastes change through the years and generations. I'm not proposing people will like this music (although I love Autechre) but I'm proposing that EVE's music should try harder to represent a possible music of the future. For some reason talking about pods and chips inserted into our heads and flying amazing ships in a space game is easy... but then challenging music becomes offensive/boring to people. -- autechre - ep7 - track 1: rpeg estevancarlos.com

Are you saying that youtube clip is from the 70s? I'm not so sure about that. Anyway, regarding electronic music, it somewhat started in the 50s and a bit in the early 1900s. And by "forward thinking" i'm just referring to the idea of a music is not entrenched in current trends and instead attempts to present emerging ideas. Ill check out Tom Dissevelt and the others. Sounds interesting. I've got some music myself: http://thehandsomestdrownedman.com -- autechre - ep7 - track 1: rpeg estevancarlos.com

So yes. Your completely right, eve does not have crazy break the rules music. : ) Hey there was a site somewhere that played music of the night sky, by playing a note each time the map hit a star, it was awesome. anyone know where it might be? I lost it :(

MotherMoon Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2010.12.07 07:52:00 - [22] http://wheelof.com/stars/ I FOUND IT! you'll love this :P
00383988003	Posted - 2010.12.07 08:25:00 - [23] I agree with Rpeg, Eve's music makes me feel nostalgic for early 90's music like Aphex Twin, early Autechre, Squarepusher, Speedy J, Black Dog, Global Comm and all the other bands doing that kind of music in that period.
Foxx Bordeaux	Posted - 2010.12.07 16:39:00 - [24] Edited by: Foxx Bordeaux on 07/12/2010 16:39:42 Don't forget about this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3cIeClV3fvY It's by Steve Roach, a guy who's been in the ambient game since the 70's. Very deep and moody stuff. This is a great one for EVE. And even in the future, I'm not so sure we will stray to far away from 4/4, mathematically its perfect for music, and to the human brain it just feels natural. IDM artists can try to stray, but its a hard thing to catch on when you loose the pulse like feel electronic 4/4 can have. Though, I mostly stick with the minimal stuff, the more white noise a track has the more breathing room for my imagination in a piece of music.

masternerdguy Gallente Meerkat Maner	Posted - 2010.12.08 04:13:00 - [27] The music in X3 is faaaar more atmospheric than the music in eve, ccp should take a hint about how to put music and space together.
