Goldeneye 007 Remastered - James Bond Theme

The James Bond theme from Goldeneye 007, remastered to CD quality, using the original synth and sample sources!
This remaster comes by way of Elite! Following up his work on Conker, Elite has delivered an exceptional remaster for this classic theme that I am sure will please many. This theme was already awesome as, but hearing remastered makes it even better, I feel. Seriously, I get a good feeling you are gonna like this one. Many thanks again goes to Elite for allowing me to share his work on the channel!

Special thanks also goes towards Mikantsumikiwi! Thanks to them, we managed to get recordings of Proteus FX sounds we otherwise didn't have. If it weren't for them, we wouldn't have been able to complete this remaster. They also emailed Graeme Norgate to find out they used a Yamaha SY-77, Ensoniq TS12, and AKAI S3000 during the production of GoldenEye 007, which has been helpful in finding sounds like the Marimba.

Even more special thanks goes to Chimeratio, for providing the Marimba sound we are using for this project, from his Yamaha SY-77.

Couldn’t they have used a different photo for him?

[@domix2517]

Now I see it too 😂

[@zrexx9428]

He's part-monkey. It's from the one James Bond movie where he got caught in the Russian experiment where they were making monkey supersoldiers out of orangutan DNA and he walked into the weird laser thing turning people into part monkey and he spent the whole movie trying to get a cure for the transformation process. They accidentally used a photo from that and put it on the cover of this game

Alternate universe: The N64 used discs instead of cartridges and defeated Sony.

[@freddman0135]

better alternate universe: Nintendo partnerships Sony instead of Phillips and they create a better console in the 90s (Timeline: Player Two Start)

[@Cynderfan35]

@@freddman0135 that future would been interesting as pretty much, it would mean SEGA and Microsoft (if daring to enter the market) would be only ones that could stop the two titans combined and probably we would have seen some amazing version of PS2 which would have become best selling console for years to come.

That might’ve been Bond himself. ;)

[@theminorprophet5132]

I'm happy you guys are moving on to Goldeneye! But I got a question. The guitars in the 007 soundtrack weren't sampled,right? Because if it wasn't he played the riff spot on.

[@ElitesSymphonies]

The guitar here is not sampled, it's done in house/in studio By Grant Kirkhope himself, the guitar is in hq because of an old sample pack that leaked quite a long time ago, it holds most of the sfx and samples for Goldeneye 007, That's how this restoration was possible.

[@theminorprophet5132]

@@ElitesSymphonies Oh ok that makes sense. I just heard they weren't sampled so I thought you played it. Had no idea it was leaked. Great Job either way!

This is a pleasure to listen to really. I've never really thought I'd be so happy to hear a remaster of this, but I'm glad it exists now. 👌

[@aaronpoorman5060]

Love it, man. I still have my original game with the box, instructions and cardboard insert. For the longest time i looked for a gun called the spyder because the back showed this gun. Turns out the spyder was slightly edited and became the klobb.

[@SlayerSantiago]

I remember playing this game on release day and holy hell it was epic. Hearing this music as a 3D Pierce Brosnan walked across the screen was mind blowing - listening to this now without the compression is magical! Thank you!

[@adonisds]

@@ChurchofKondoh Apparently the composer released them on his website, then years later they became famous once people uploaded them to KZbin and said they were leaked. That's why "leaked".

[@Glacier_Nester]

Another absolute BANGER that really benefits from the reduction in compression here! Glad Kirkhope released what he did, bet that made this easier!

[@OldPitocoHery]

Sounds pretty nice. I'm waiting for the pause menu theme remastered.

[@ObviousTrollFrom2007]

Is it just me, or do the guitar riffs at 1:15 sound just like the ones for the Skate or Die 2 theme?

This will be interesting to compare remastered tracks with the released, pre-compression, ones like Cradle.

I love this game's intro so much. God, I just... Every time!!!

[@vergil114]

My friends, it just keeps happening. A great job has been done here.

[@cappucci_n0]

I would love to see something like that, but with Unreal or Deus Ex soundtrack, since it also uses samples and synths. But I think its gonna be hard to track down every sample and recreate the synths (unless if Alexander Brandon, Andrew Sega and Michiel van den Bos remembers which samples they were using)

Honestly, I'll bet if you had just asked Grant Kirkhope he'd have sent you his original master

[@josh07698]

The tracks (other than the early demos he shared on his website) were exclusively produced on the dev kit, so it wouldn't be much of an improvement I think.

[@TorutheRedFox]

@@josh07698 probably were made with higher quality AIFFs that were compressed at build time

[@josh07698]

​@@TorutheRedFox It'd definitely be an improvement for sure , but I find it extremely doubtful it'd sound as clear as it would here. I'd imagine it would sound close to what "Video-Game OST HQ" does.

[@TorutheRedFox]

@@josh07698 the uncompressed, raw aiffs for N64 games sound pretty clear imo

[@Cynderfan35]

he did only few songs for the game, prior gaining N64 dev kit for composing his music, which is why there are very few of the original uncompressed possible to find as he did most with the developer tools
