Samples from the original .umx files shipped with the GOG.com GOTY release were extracted using OpenMPT then rearranged, mixed, and mastered in Studio One. A few minor arrangement and sample changes have been made to modernize it and correct some audio imperfections such as clicks and clipping.
Deus Ex is unique for being one of the first games to properly implement a simple (but extremely effective) dynamic music system. The way this is achieved is by splitting every major area theme into multiple "subtracks" - ambient, conversation, combat, etc. - which are queued automatically depending on the player's actions. This, however, poses a big problem for a project such as this one - the soundtrack is structured in a way that augments (pun not intended) the gameplay first, and my remaster tries to be like a regular album for listening to from start to finish. Therefore, I decided to include every single subtrack (even unused ones), meaning I had to come up with smooth transitions between them. This means that the subtrack ordering is inconsistent, however, as it was a conscious decision to order them based on how much they made sense musically as opposed to the order you may hear in-game.
This release includes some music unused in the game (tcrf.net/Deus_Ex/Unused_Audio...
- UNATCO - conversation track extended intro
- Majestic 12 Labs - alternate ambient track (used as the conversation track in the PS2 port)
- Opponent Within - unused outro
- Naval Base & Graveyard - unused ambient track for the Lower East Side Cemetery level which is left silent; combined with Naval Base tracks since they come from the same file
- The Nothing - unused conversation track
- Area 51 - unused outro (most likely a leftover from before the final Moon level was cut)
This release has different credits from the official soundtrack release:
- Area 51 is composed by Bryan Rudge who, according to Alexander Brandon, asked not to be credited (source: • Interview w/Alexander ... )
- NYC Bar, Hong Kong Club 1, Hong Kong Club 2, Paris Club 1, and Paris Club 2 were composed by Reeves Gabrels; they were not included in the official release
This is the first release on my new channel, "misadventures in ludomusicology", focused purely on video game music. I made this decision to keep my main channel focused on original music and occasional music-related content. It just seemed fitting for my all-time favorite game to be the first remaster there (not to mention it's the most complex and time-consuming so far!)

@colbashar 10 месяцев назад

Thank you for making these available as flac files. This is a refreshing way to listen to a classic score. I appreciate that you gave proper credit to the composers. A lot of people just attribute the Deus Ex score to Alexander Brandon and while he did a lot of the heavy lifting, van den Bos et all really added a lot to making the music so dynamic and engaging. I wasn't even aware there was a fifth contributor until now.

@Kamletue 5 месяцев назад

Very good remaster. The only thing that bothers me is the fact that I can't select a specific variation (ambient/action/conversation) of each theme.

@crim5125 6 месяцев назад

this is incredible. so many of the songs come to life hearing them this clearly. the drums and bass have so much more punch in this mix, too. hearing "lebedev's airfield" blew me away. also, the way you transitioned the tracks is so creative, the timing speeding up leading into the combat tracks is a great touch. my only gripes are with "chateau duclare" and "the illuminati", some of the synth instruments got pretty buried on those tracks, they could be tuned up a little. also the guitar instrument that comes in about a minute and ten seconds into nyc streets sounds sorta thin, it sounded punchier in the original song, and the synths in the opening of "unatco" sound sorta muffled, but i guess that might be how the sample sounds? either way, this is absolutely amazing and will probably be the main way i listen to the soundtrack from now on.

@misadventuresinludomusicology 5 месяцев назад

thanks. i always felt the guitar thing in nyc streets sounded a bit too overpowering so i deliberately made it more subtle. the beginning of unatco sounds muffled because i applied a lot of denoising since the original sample has some annoying high-pitched noise. i may have overdone it slightly, though, since now it just sounds like a low pass filter.
