Automation - Sanctuary Fortress Remix

This song was remixed for the New expansion album to the Harmony of a Hunter; appropriately named Harmony of a Hunter: 101% Run. The original song is from Metroid Prime 2's Sanctuary Fortress.

[@SweetMadness9]

I love how they stay relatively close to the feel of the original song while still adding some new layers and texture to the track. The dubstep breakdown is pretty rad too. This is one of my favorite songs on the album.

[@dragonkid365]

Still listening to this almost 9 years later. Definitely my favorite song in Harmony of a Hunter: 101% Run. This song is now nostalgic to me.

[@DrPonner]

I really loved the Sanctuary Fortress, it definitely had that advanced society and high technology feel to it. Oh, and Quadraxis is a badass.

[@claycowan1989]

Quadraxis is one of the most creative bosses in a video game, in my opinion!

[@Zerethos]

Agreed

[@romaingrasser400]

Sadly I hoped it was harder.. I died more times facing Shykka

[@hyperwing5374]

Romain GRASSER beat prime 2 on hypermode quadraxis killed me the first few times but screw the boost guardian

[@omegapirate64]

Hyper Wing nah Spider Guardian was one of the hardest video game bosses I know of

[@mickyfitz5037]

Sometime in my life, I need to go to a major gaming convention costumed as a steambot or ingsmasher breakdancing to this music.

[@deviantsid18]

Record plz

[@AdmiralOctopus]

^^^^^^^^^^

[@omegapirate64]

Yes

What I love about this remix, aside from the absolutely gorgeous quality, is the fact that it actually makes it sound pretty scary. It feels like an actual robot apocalypse. The original theme felt high tech-y and neat, but this remix... I don't know if it's the instruments or the way the sound from the instruments reverberates, but it feels like real danger.

[@carl10x]

Love songs with hyper mechanical feel to them and this is the best of its class in my book. This song is so good made me warm up to several forms of dubstep, a genre a still somewhat despise. But this, THIS is another level! 10/10. Personally It would have been awesome if I got to live in Sanctuary fortress before the Ing.

[@Chaosian]

How about after the Ing? ; )

[@carl10x]

Chaosian01 o.e

[@Nain9]

This is godlike omg, and the switch to the depths theme near the end, amazing job!

[@styvux2576]

Man I remember listening to this and the other harmony of a hunter tracks while I was in high school all the time. Such a good remix for a great game!

[@tom7784]

Controversial opinion here, if I had to pick between ever playing Metroid again or watching any starwars + playing any starwars game. I'd pick metroid .

[@sapientshow1294]

nicely done there man. i really like it. i never cared too much for sanctuary fortress but this makes something special of it for me. keep up the good work

[@Mesmonium]

Thanks for listening! It sticks quite true to the original but increases the tension!

[@sapientshow1294]

got that right. and no problem. i'm a huge fan of game remixes. i have playlists full of them, separated by franchise (this definitely made it into my metroid remix playlist. too good to pass up). sometimes i just go out and explore new remixes. most are hard not to like especially when its a theme i really love (like torvus bog theme, for example. it's somewhere in my top 5 fave mp2 themes. so i've got several remixes of that in the playlist. lol)

[@VariaSweetGuardian]

Always a good time down at Sanctuary Fortress!

[@dragonkid365]

I love this song. Still listen to it almost 8 years later.

[@themapcartographer5952]

I got a Dolphin Emulator and played Metroid prime 2 with this remix entering Sanctuary Fortress and its so good! thank you for enhancing my experience!

[@ScioFantasia]

Sir, your use of filters is superior.

[@soldierbrutis95]

One of your best! Awesome work!

[@Peter_Holder]

Fudgin' awesome. Sanctuary Fortress is definitely the standout region in Prime 2, and you definitely did its theme justice.

[@DreadnoughtDT]

This is an excellent song. I like the part at about two minutes in that adds in the electric guitar. Sounds epic.

[@shadowvic56]

im just so happy everytime i land on this song

[@solomon9655]

This is one of those songs that really make you think. I can't explain how cool that is.

[@VoidedMirror]

I really love this. Both the original theme and this are great.

[@Chaosian]

Ya had me right until 3:28, 'Robot belch ~yeah', haha. Really awesome though!

[@microArc]

it has a sweet computer like feel about it that i love. it holds the original composition as the focus but appropriately modifies it to feel more intense. the drum beat at 1:30 is awesome and makes it smoothly mechanical. but the dubstep breakdown at 3:20 just takes it to a whole new level of awesome. This whole composition reminds me of sanctuary fortress + edIT Ants beat.

[@Mesmonium]

+Aaron Sako Im glad you enjoyed this!

[@LaserMilkshake]

I like how you added a lot of variation to the different "parts" of the music. That was a problem Echoes had throughout.

[@themapcartographer5952]

Im playing Metroid prime 2 echoes right now with this music in the back its so damn good!!!!!!

[@laary7589]

Every songs better with a frequent alarm noise

[@44dman44]

OMFG. This is amazing! So many memories. ;_;

[@kevinkerwin4118]

Bro this mix is dope

[@MisplacedUmea]

Amazing track, Mesmonium. Really one of the best tracks on a close to flawless album. Loving this! /Sebastian Mårtensson

[@shadowvic56]

awesome sanctuary fortress remix mesmonium!

[@AshisogiiJizo]

This is one of my favorite remixes on the Harmony of a Hunter 101% Run album, hands down. I regretfully never finished Metroid Prime 2 because my game glitched out at the point before hopping back and forth between Sanctuary Fortress and the Ing Hive to kill the Screw Attack boss, but I always did enjoy listening to the Sanctuary Fortress song...though I do enjoy this remix more. Seriously, great work.

[@Mesmonium]

Thanks for the nice comment! I do love the feel of Sanctuary Fortress. Its so futuristic, which is strange for Metroid, funnily enough

[@romaingrasser400]

Honnestly, I can pick 15 titles that are 20/20 in Harmony of a Hunter. This one's in the list of course.. Who's the artist ? Can't find..

[@SooshiShef]

Definitely one of the best areas in the game. A good friend of mine managed to beat the game in about 8 hours on a weekend because his memory card was corrupted and he couldn't save. Your story reminded me of this.

[@FierceDeityLink1990]

one of my favorite themes in Prime 2

[@UnitedAether]

I love this! It was hard to find a sanctuary fortress remix ^^

[@calzone7961]

nerd tip: it is actually not the sanctuary fortress theme, rather the dynamo core theme

[@tsuny3899]

Awesome remix! Among all other remixes, this one is the best! I'll use it in my future creation! I'll credit you obviously!

[@LuxAeterna22878]

This is exceptional!

[@AsDeFeu]

(1:27) Nicest beat I've ever heard! =D

[@nutcasecannon]

You know its good when mesmonium wants a DL

[@DeeStrongfist]

This song is incredible

[@ZehvorMT]

'Tis beautiful.

[@klj3400]

dear god this is beautiful. I'd totally listen to this more if it had a looped version

[@Greggles1138]

I like how you included the dynamo are theme at the end.

[@PmkExpert]

Wonderful track!

[@austinstover4887]

This sounds epic bro.

[@LuxAeterna22878]

Superb work, methinks! :)

[@RapperBowser]

MASTERPIECE

[@7Link7]

Echos is so Fucking UNDERRATED.

[@Zerethos]

This remix kicks ass!!

[@Likhos1]

the Sanctuary Fortress's theme is quite an underrated theme sadly.

[@Nusma]

a tempting track

[@giygas_9577]

It'd be cool to mod these games to play some of these HoaH remixes.

[@giygas_9577]

Sorry for the INCREDIBLY late reply, but what other remixes did you mod in? And did you do it on an emulator or with a modded Wii/Gamecube?

[@deltrisfoti5715]

I call bullshit

[@deltrisfoti5715]

Being a metroid modder myself, look me up on youtube: ProjectEsia, I can tell you right now the needed tools to replace tracks in prime 2 simply does not exist, and if this man had found out or developed a tool to do so he would have released it, and if he had actually done this before chances are he would also release the patch for it as it would be an excessive amount of work. In short, currently not a feasible task.

[@deltrisfoti5715]

Not to mention the way gamecube handles the songs isn't mp3 or ogg or anything common, so it would be complicated as f#$% to even get these tracks to work

[@giygas_9577]

I don't know anything about modding myself so I wouldn't know about what it would take to do this sort of thing. Would be cool though.

[@DarkReshiram41]

What? the dubstep is the best part!

[@Mozzaratti]

Breakin' those beats. :D

[@variaproject]

Damn son! Good shit :)

[@emilcastagnier1571]

more than perfect xD

[@SuperPantsman123]

let's desert world swamp world and ah yes, fort nox

[@shadowvic56]

ill use this song in my next metroid music video!!

[@calzone7961]

the cool part about this track is that it is actually not the sanctuary fortress theme, but the dynamo core theme

[@josephcrouch5844]

Nice😎

[@Tetraforce-Z]

Dude like 3:24. What even? Mastery yet Disgusting switch.

[@notturok7841]

I can run through metorid prime 2 on the wii like nothing compared to when I was younger. Pretty much every boss in the Dark World I never lose more than 1 energy tank sometimes 2 but rare

[@olsonbryce777]

Almost better than the original

[@sensingforce]

I love this song! except for the dubstep part.

[@jamesehlenfeldt7132]

most annoying boss in video game history resides in the depths of this sanctuary... SPIDER BALL GUARDIAN!!!!

[@1216shadow]

yep one of very few boss's I've ever died to in the series the others being Thardus the Omega Pirate Quadraxis Yakuza super metroid Ridley (but who hasn't) zero missions mother brain (I was doing a low % run on hard)

[@hyperwing5374]

James Ehlenfeldt boost guardian on hypermode is much harder than the spider guardian

[@jamesehlenfeldt7132]

@@hyperwing5374 see now everyone complains about this guy. But I never had a problem with him; dark beam to freeze him in place, then spam holy light into his eye.

[@voltorian-minecraft]

@@jamesehlenfeldt7132 boost guardian isn't hard if you know what you're doing...a lot of the playthroughs i see show the player just waiting around in morph ball mode while boost guardian is boosting around the arena. that's probably why so many people thought it was hard. you could just unmorph and jump over it as it boosted while you wait...

[@Bufosmixes]

Ah this HoaH101 was you!? nice man! I bet you are not allowed to say this but I am guessing you'll be in HoH as well.

[@Mesmonium]

;)

[@nfsspartanprim]

Could Sanctuary fortress and a slowed version of Ridley theme work together?

[@Mesmonium]

+nfsspartanprim not sure... as they have different time signatures, it will have be done right or not at all

[@nfsspartanprim]

Can you try Maybe or is it not worth the time?

[@MorvosTheDark]

You fucking Gravitified me.

[@josephcrouch5844]

I just took two photos of this picture

[@Zerethos]

Speaking of picture where is the location of the second picture? I don't recognize any part of Sanctuary Fortress in it.

[@16bitSteven]

Would you mind if I used this for part of my new channel intro? You would be credited, of course.

[@Mesmonium]

I dont mind at all!

[@16bitSteven]

Thank you so much!

[@hyperwing5374]

The background image at 1:48 what is it?

[@taylorthedestructinator3372]

Amazing Song. I would like to use this track in a video I'm making. May I? You will be credited.

[@Mesmonium]

Sure

[@dalrethliant8822]

hey is the Hoah website back up yet? or do i use overclocked's website?

[@ManLikeWadeN7]

@ 1:28 That's where it's at.

[@shadowvic56]

well ya ill pay for this song soon, and ill show what i did in my first video with other metroid remixes from OverClocked Remix to this song's creator, he wont refuse if i can use it :P

[@novagax457]

KZbin y u no let me like twice

[@samus2sexyfordis]

I'm sure you've been asked this tons of times, but download link please :(

[@AxelLeJeff]

Liked it up to 3:30. I just think the change up was a little too heavy and sudden.

[@Mesmonium]

Fair enough! Glad you enjoyed up to that part either way

[@Mesmonium]

Good point!

[@samusdude10]

It sounds nice and all but there is almost no difference between this and the original. You applied maybe a few filters I hear the cowbell but there is almost no difference in the beginning and some samples are just flat out shortened. I enjoy what you've done with it.

[@Mesmonium]

samusdude10 I wanted to keep elements from the original but ended up keeping more than I initially wanted... I could do it better and varied now though

[@momsamus3889]

+Mesmonium Perfectly fine and good.

[@SV-X]

+MOM Samus Of course, of all the places, I found you here...
