Saki Kaskas - Callista with sports cars of the 90s and early 2000s

A tribute to one of the most iconic musics used in racing games. Featured first in Need For Speed 4 : High Stakes in 1999, and later reappeared in Mass Effect 2 in the Nightclub. This music is so influential that EA decided to put it again in the 2015 Need For Speed reboot.
Theodosius Kaskamanidis, better known as "Saki Kaskas" or "Captain Ginger", was a Greek-Canadian video game music composer, best known for his soundtracks in the Need for Speed series. 1971 - 11 Nov 2016
All videos belong to Electronic Arts, Need For Speed 2 SE and others were adverts to their respective owners.

The most beautiful cars come from this era. The song takes the video to another world. This is a reason why I still play NFS3HP and high stakes.

Best need for speed ever, NFS 4 deserve a remake

[@arikgwie5172]

Diablo SV, BMW M5, the Chevrolet family of Corvette C5 and Camaro Z28, those cars are really awesome

Amazing, i remember the f50 looking so futuristic back then, also the ford gt90 concept car was something else

[@comtruise1648]

Well done, great video. I was one of the lucky ones to play this in the nineties. Amazing tune, takes you to another dimension. RIP Saki Kaskas.

Thank you for your kind words! Its nice to share some good memories with this music he created. We missed him. ❤️

Lovely use of the old NFS showcase movies and promotional films for the cars, I feel this with Callista really captured the spirit of the old games and that era for sports cars, awesome job!

[@sonyviva308]

In all of the soundtracks in NFS 4, this one caught my ear the most

[@SpringBlossomGames]

[@FlipThoseTitle]

i was kinda sad i didn't born early enough to feel the nostalgia

[@sonyviva308]

Ehh its about the same only difference is the video quality is worse and quirky styles

[@mohamedalkma2507]

This track made me love european cars

[@pespinoza1995]

set playback speed to 1.75x and now its a DnB tune

[@mikethedude571]

Woah thats cool

[@JoeRosarioBZ]

1.5 works better

[@goldbullet50]

Thank you for this. Makes me nostalgic... This video is exactly like something you saw in the early days of KZbin, back in 2007-2009. Just a random compilation of found footage of sports cars, made by a teenager in his basement with Windows Movie maker, using the soundtrack of his favorite racing game from his childhood. It feels rather unbelievable, that the new and exciting cars of my childhood, which I loved driving in racing games, are now over 20 years old... The car I drive that would've been just a few years old when I was a kid, is soon old enough (30 years) to be registered as an antique vehicle...

This has to be on of the best video's on youtube ever! Thank you for making this. How great of a team NFS had at those times to produce the car video's as well! And yes that is my all time favorite music from NFS, what a basseline. RIP Saki Kaskas.

NFS High Stakes × Initial D = 🐺

[@SteveGlowplunk]

Cars

[@naKuhito]

Why does this have GT2 vibes

[@sonyviva308]

That's the vibe with NFS High Stakes. It was meant to feel high class, European and modern with a mind of a street racer

[@naKuhito]

@@sonyviva308 Well it's a success !!

[@naKuhito]

@@sonyviva308 Wait, is there any Aston Martin in the game ? DB something ?

[@sonyviva308]

@@naKuhito Yes in NFS 4 you have the DB7 and the Volante

[@naKuhito]

@@sonyviva308 Yep that's the one.
