Raptor: Call of the Shadows - New Music

A new Rock/Metal version of the old awesome dos pc-game's soundtrack written by me.
It's my personal tribute to this great game which still rocks after 17 years!
It was written with guitar pro 6.
If you liked that, here's more of my productions on my souncloud:

Also check out my new rendition of the Raptor soundtrack, which you can also find on my soundcloud & KZbin channel.

[@Ebbelboiz]

I created a new version of this, which you can now find on my YT channel. It sounds much more contemporary than this one, so go check it out! :)

Link pls and this is amazing

[@LieorDie24]

A milestone in the dosgame era

[@VGamingJunkieVT]

11:40 Hell yeah! Best track, fitting it’s the finale stage for all 3 sectors.

[@Gos2]

5:00 raptor2 - best ever!

[@RayFlorenceReyes]

Playing this game for close to 25 years. Using the new Windows compatible version. Hearing your remixed music brought tears to my eyes. Yes. this game is close to 25 years old. Yes I might be playing this my whole life and passing on this great legacy to my children.

[@xCharjx]

It’s all phenomenal! But that 8:10 good God.

[@joshuawiley6506]

Well thank you, pleasant surprise. :) Guess what's getting a modern engine, and a sequel :D

[@asifov]

All I can say is WOW.....

[@Yadid1]

The way "Hangar" leads into "Raptor 1" is the stuff of legends.

[@Number-6]

@Ebbelboiz Thanks a lot! The music is fantastic. I'm really eager to overwrite the .wav files in Raptor 2010 Edition's folder with your tracks. I love the oldschool tunes, but your re-versions are amazing updated renditions, and I can tell that plenty of respect and love went into every note.

[@svenofthejungle]

I regret that I have only one like to give for this epic mix! Thank you for improving upon perfection!

[@grules18]

oh damn. Thanks for this !

[@BTF82]

this is what happens if heavy metal bands did video game soundtracks. love the enhanced percussion. makes a big difference in an already awesome soundtrack. i wish MIDI sounded this good back then!

[@simontay4851]

It could if you had a good sound card.

[@anthonygonsalves7020]

That went from 0-60 REAL quick! Sick!

[@BTF82]

also, i forgot to mention.....A W E S O M E job on this remix. totally kickass. i listen to this every couple of days while working.

[@HyperZeroFalcon]

This music genre, rock/metal, fits well with the theme of aerial combat. High speeds, towering altitudes or dogfighting at dangerously *low* altitudes, as well as Raptor's plethora of super-powered weapons all scream 'EXTREME!' in the face of the pilot, and this medley sums it all well.

[@Whateverguy8114]

This game mastered the Music for its genre, dodging plasma left and right and shooting down the enemies as they fly into your line of fire ;w;

[@maarten562]

This is awesome, brings back so many (mostly bad) memories. I sucked at this game and I still do :P

[@hypnoarts]

gr8 man... just searching for the best raptor remix and i found it :) good job

[@rbenne6]

the "Raptor2" song is by far my favorite tune in the game.

[@metllak]

i love this game so much, great job dude, 3:27 epic win ! :P

[@Number-6]

@Jonathanpoll I really liked your versions, by the way, Jonathanpoll. You even did the bonus unused song!

[@knakker2329]

It still rocks in 2020!

[@789456456123]

Dear creater, I downloaded this so much you should feel violated... Sincerely a Childhood fan of this video game

[@Lumpytoast]

...You sir, are a God.

[@user-cf7lz9ou6w]

Wow, amazing

[@BTF82]

ARES shields, CAL-10, and the Odin. and plenty of Megabombs.

[@LordSimonTemplar]

Very true to the original, thanks for putting it together :)

[@KurtHectic97]

death music is sad, but beautiful.

[@Ebbelboiz]

thank you, kind man..

[@waitin4winter]

freakin awesome

[@Ebbelboiz]

@Jonathanpoll hey, thanks...:) the songs can be downloaded now with the link in the videodescription... sure, you can swap the songs in the raptor 2010 version, i did that too...that's why i wrote them in the first place :) the thing is that you have to convert the files to a worse quality (11,025 hz) when you try it because unfortunately the game doesn't take any wave files with better quality...

[@Foxstab]

Only now I found this? LOL.

[@hiepsinho93]

04:39 - 06:22 Best !!!!!

[@FFWorldHD]

Scott host remastering old game for new technology

[@Ebbelboiz]

I know. ;) I'm looking forward to playing it!

[@GamingKat_]

Damn good

[@Conargle]

damn these are good

[@BTF82]

it's supposed to be Harold's Death Emporium...not weapons emporium. you can even see it on the moniter, HDE in the upper left screen.

[@Ebbelboiz]

@Jonathanpoll did you convert them to 11,025 hz?...that's all i had to do to get the songs playing in the game.. if it doesn't work anyway i could convert them and upload them..but that might take a while.

[@kingdavewoody]

Hello I'm Harrold and I run the weapon emporium. Even though the world is under attack by aliens I'm not going to give you all the weapons you need to save us all, I will instead slowly sell them to you as you destroy alien ships : /

[@MattT1996]

Wow, not bad! I can remember playing this game back then, how I would get stuck on like stage... 4 was it? I dunno, but I couldn't get past a certain boss (mostly because I had low powered weapons and little to no health.) I might have to download this game again and give it another go! ^_^

[@BTF82]

ahhhhh. thats what's wrong with america....everyone is afraid of offending somebody, so the classic gritty games get pussied down. still, despite my assholistic attention to detail, this game will always rock. intense soundtrack, easy gameplay, i think sony and Xbox game developers need to slow down, look back at some of these jewels of gaming history, and stop spending hundreds of millions to develop a game and go back to basics. seriously. i played the shareware of this more than any xbox game

[@Ebbelboiz]

@1337W422102 Thanks :) Not yet, but I will upload them with dropbox soon...i'll post the link here when it's done.

[@sreedhar512]

Wish it can come in PS5

[@richardbenko3839]

Hi there. This is the best tribute to this soundtrack so far. May I ask you to also upload the guitar pro files? It would be cool to practice these tracks on guitar :)

[@anthonygonsalves7020]

My only qualm is the menu song comes on too strong. I like it for it's relaxed sound, yet makes you head bang as soon as the arpeggio comes in.

[@KarelTheKaiser]

wow the raptor 3... whoooooooooooooooooooooooow so heavy rythm! loving this! 6:22

[@avernus_a3]

Where can we download these? I couldn't find them under your soundcloud.

[@Ebbelboiz]

There's no download anymore, since I made this 8 years ago. However, I was thinking about maybe remixing them. I'll let you know in the video description whether there's new versions.

[@nicholashastings8384]

@@Ebbelboiz Any chance this is still coming one day? Or at least the download files for this one? Thanks!

[@Ebbelboiz]

@@nicholashastings8384 As a matter of fact, I'm working on it. I have two jobs though, so this is a slow side project. Two of the tracks are done so far.

[@nicholashastings8384]

Awesome! Thanks for the update!

[@Ebbelboiz]

@@nicholashastings8384 just an update: I've uploaded the first couple tracks of the new remake. ;)

indeed I feel violated, but in a good way :D

[@GreyFieldVEVO]

If some day you need a keyboardist to record it well, trust me :).

[@AttilaTamas112]

This is great! Amazing job, is there a download available? Would love to implement into the game itself. Thank you.

[@Ebbelboiz]

Attila Tamas Glad you enjoyed it.. ;) I made this so many years ago though, that I don't really provide an active download link anymore, sorry. Also as far as I recall, you have to drastically decrease the quality of the wave files in order to get the game to read them, which makes the music sound almost as low quality as the originals. :D

[@phillipsmith4473]

Can you release each track separately?

[@Number-6]

This is incredible. Are the songs available anywhere for download?
