Epic - Rome Total War Original Soundtrack - Jeff van Dyck

The Rome Total War Original Soundtrack was composed by Jeff van Dyck in 2003-2004. It features vocals by Angela van Dyck, and bouzouki and mandolin by Saki Kaskas.

I find it funny how I am listening to the entire playlist and reading the names of the songs for the first time, but I know every one by heart and every melody is etched in my mind and soul.

[@dusk6159]

Basically the story of a RTW player's life

[@totalwar1793]

I don't ever remember hearing this song in game

[@c3ge]

This was used for some gameplay demo videos of the game. Probably cut from the game.

[@Narvaljodchik]

It was cut, part of it was used for the video that plays when you capture the Statue of Zeus at Olympia (from 2:10 to 2:35)

[@leonrobinson2053]

You definitely have because it merges with the music that is used when you capture a wonder

[@Danymok]

You can now hear it in the Spanish intro on the Remaster which is cool

[@aguineapig12]

@@Danymok why are you here

[@stormy74blue79]

Jeff van Dyck is mind-blowing.

[@Shrapnel57]

2:10 For taking Corinth and gaining control of the Statue of Zeus. And from 2:50 onwards is used as the Hellenic victory in remastered rome total war.

[@mirceazaharia2094]

Colossus of Rhodes is KEY, IMO. Especially if you're positioned to conquer all of Greece and its profitable trading ports. As I remember, it buffs trade income.

[@axeltaborda9294]

A work of art, from start to finish, thank you very much Jeff van Dyck

[@hodge542]

total war just isnt the same without jeff. Rome 1 and Medieval 2 are my favourites i have shogun 1, rome 1, medieval 1 and 2 on disc i am also gonna finally buy shogun 2 soon played medieval one when i was like 10 my laptop could barely run it back then such good memories

[@imperium3556]

Shogun 2 retains most of the best parts of Shogun 1's soundtrack, so you're in for a treat.

[@secundusytp4517]

Medieval 2 has the best mods hands down.

[@Rrr94zzz]

Medieval 2 and attila are the best but i like too Britannia

[@Jeyeyeyey]

good, don't go past shogun 2 fall of the samurai, it's only downhill from there

[@GAMER123GAMING]

@@Jeyeyeyey attilla is actually good honestly

[@lelibrepanzer4913]

Not gonna lie Jeff made a big part of the memories we got of this game, i can't imagine Rome TW whitout Jeff music

[@europeanpatriot8031]

This is epic

[@youvebeengreeked]

This is Epic. It is also epic.

[@richielassen4950]

this is epic, hearing a new track from rome total war, mind blown

[@NotAnAustralianEngineer]

This slaps just as much as the rest

[@cagobaba31]

Wonderful

[@gewuerzkoenich1924]

I hope we will have the full version of this as battle music in the remaster.

[@andygf]

Ahhh yes when you capture the Statue of Zeus...vibes

[@SageManeja]

cant figure out is this is meant as campaign map music or battle music... seems like something for a scripted scene rather than normal gamepaly

[@JeffvanDyckMusic]

I used pieces of it for some of the cutscenes, but couldn't find a place for the rest of it. So it became a bonus track.

[@rorschach1985ify]

@@JeffvanDyckMusic I hope one day you can come back and work on another TW game. Hopefully you can get in contact with Feral again to maybe do more music on the Rome Remaster at least.

[@KathrynsWorldWildfireTracking]

@@JeffvanDyckMusic This track sends my heart soaring. _Bows down low._ Thank you.

[@Sirxchrish]

CA's biggest mistake was hiring other people to do their soundtracks. The composition is amazing.

[@user-gx7ui2sm7d]

I guess it should have been credits. Would love playing it in the end of the game more rather than Forever. This one makes more sense.

[@baggelis_aikaterinis]

This track combines everything RTW had to offer , troops marching , intrique , flaroushing cities , drama and a lot more . Its no wonder its called Epic by its Creator !

[@youssefkabab5593]

Rome total war will always and still is a masterpiece

[@ivanpopov2788]

Always) indeed.

Total War is 50% CA and 50% Jeff

This is what me and the Latin Bois listened to in 53 BC when we defeated the Gallic uprising.

[@pkstudios744]

1:00 here begins one of the best moments in music history

[@_ZimZam]

Awesome

[@defendersofthevalley6845]

This song is GREAT to listen to after reading "The Last King" by Michael Curtis Ford. IT JUST FITS KING MITHRIDATES PERFECTLY, SUCH A GREAT SOUNDTRACK!!!

[@TheMalloney]

2:50 Love this part right here

[@joshuacoleman6245]

[@themostbasedsiameseperson]

As The Song's title, It's Epic.

[@benwhyte8062]

Hey! I absolutely love this song. I was wondering whether you would be able to put it onto Spotify or release it as a downloadable file separate from KZbin? I just absolutely hate their audio compression method, usually destroys the sound 😭 Fantastic piece of music though, really! This game was such a part of my childhood and I wish this had been in it too!

[@dericcheshire4703]

it is on spotify

Guys this music is not from the original Rome 2

[@constantinouojoron5491]

NOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@waitforthecream]

Hi, can I use this music in a video if I give you credit?

[@JeffvanDyckMusic]

Contact me directly for permission requests.

[@palomo9385]

This music would be ideal for when you mobilize your forces in the Arab lands, not in combat.

[@nukacolacompany2534]

It wasn’t intended for that but I can imagine it working that sounds cool

[@cultofthevoid5677]

You would get this soundtrack after you completed all objectives and won the game. Zoomers and Losers know nothing of this soundtrack. It was the true end credit.
