SWTOR's Soundtrack: KotFE & Beyond

Recommended Posts

Like every great MMO, SWTOR has a rockin' original soundtrack. It's a tad disappointing that it's gone fairly synthy in the last couple expansions, but it's still pretty darn great. Therefore isn't it just a no-brainer to release this music?

 

I know some of the score was made available at launch, and there was a collector's edition CD (which I have), but it'd be absolutely awesome to have a nice big album available for all on CD/iTunes/GPlay/Spotify/etc. People love Star Wars music. And hey, I know it's unlikely, but if some of the KotOR/KotOR2 scores were bundled in that'd be super stellar, since they never got proper releases.

 

A secondary reason that this'd be great is to find out more about who's behind the music. I'm surprised you guys don't share who's composing the new stuff at the moment! On WildStar we know it's Jeff Kurtenacker. But since launch who's been behind SWTOR's music? The music is so important!

 

Well that's my simple suggestion/request.

Regards,

a soundtrack lover

I'm curious about he music too. Some of it is really beautiful. My favorite is what I call 'Theron's Theme'

because it plays when he makes his appearance.

 

 

It sounds a little...celtic-y which I really enjoy. I'd like to be able to download it and listen, it's such a nice piece of music. :)

Good idea, a lot of ToR's music is VERY Star-Warsy, almost as if it had been written by Mr Williams himself.

 

I have all the old game music from the CE, plus I did some searching & found some torrents of stuff not on the CD.

 

I don't know if any of the recent music is available though.

agreed. it would be so great if there was a place on the site to download the music from the game, especially the newer songs. say a new song or two was added to the latest update, and a month after, so people can experience it in game first, then the song is available on the site.

 

based on the music video they did before launch, there seemed to be like 5 or 6 composers working on music. I'd love to get an update on who is still around, and who's creating the new tracks.

Yeah, it'd be great to get the KOTET songs as well. I mean we have it through other YouTube channels but the not official SWTOR channel.

Slightly off-topic, but I'd like to hear some music from the new trilogy make into the game. Say what you want about the movies, but John Williams' score is awesome. Particularly The Spark from The Last Jedi soundtrack.
