SSX - Music to Grind To - Full Album (rare)

[@LLusion]

34;50 y’all i’ve been searching for Renegade (34:50) for 15+ years y’all have no idea how happy i am about this thank you

[@kiko12000]

LLusion Yo holy shit I did not expect to see you here. But yes, this entire album is a fucking CLASSIC! You must remix one of these songs

[@dylancooper1394]

Woah @LLusion! Love your music man

[@thomasandrewhansen]

Yeaaaaa dude! This tune!!!!

[@GyleCast]

Always had me bopping in the menu music not wanting to start the level while my mates shouted at me to launch...

[@jacobhoglind1763]

The bassline is also super similar to "King Of The Beats" by Aphrodite, a drum & bass track that would play in a couple levels of SSX Tricky

[@car_pal]

Currently being hit by gigantic waves of nostalgia one track after the other

[@StrawberryPidgey]

Car Pal here?! Of course you have good taste!

Saved and archived, rest assured this sound will remain immortal. Much love.

[@BioDjango]

Amen

[@kiko12000]

Wow. Oh my god. I’ve played this game almost every day since I was 4 and it came out. And I still never got a chance to hear some of these songs. You are an absolute god for this. This is so unbelievably rare

[@ALzinatioN]

Wow that is really strange and fascinating. For Example: 25:32 are used to be the Mesablanca Theme in OG SSX, but in SSX Tricky it changed to this 20:56 to be the Mesablanca Theme and both Soundtracks was existing in this CD. My Mind is blown now lol

[@theharvardyard2356]

hey you're right, good ear

[@ALzinatioN]

@@theharvardyard2356 thank you very much for uploading this

[@Forsete]

I still have the original CD of this stuffed away somewhere in my parent's house. I ripped and uploaded these tracks on some now abandoned torrent site many years ago. Cool to see this again after all these years though. Appreciate the upload.

[@buttersstotch2014]

It’s hero’s like you that keep the internet fresh, respect

[@APollenus]

If you ever find that CD back and are willing to sell, I'm interested! :)

[@harrisonhunter9433]

One of the most fun games of all time.

[@connorhodges8939]

Agree

[@al112v4]

When sports games were actually fun and not filled with microtransactions.

[@andrewbuchan6122]

6:46 - remember playing this part on my drums years ago!

[@nathankoleman3412]

30:06 *Yells incoherently in French but also raises my adrenaline levels*

[@blacksun8435]

I rocked this game. I dont remember how high score i had on snowdream. Someone told me about a guy who had higher. I was sure that some of them lied. I love it so much and thank everybody who made the game! It gave me alot of fun when everything sucked.

[@GreenHyperMan7777]

destroy the competition is a great song

[@28thEQUINOX]

I remember my grandad sending me this as a kid and a walkman and i'd just listen to it on repeat, the was my gateway into dnb and techhouse/techno (I hope I still have it lying around at my mums)

[@digitaldeathsquid3448]

11:23 Sounds like the same maniacal laugh at the beginning of Brain Freeze by Frank Klepacki

[@viperstar8014]

I loved playing SSX as a kid! It made me want to become a snowboarder.

[@daddykong6388]

[@SpeedDemonPowerage98]

Jeez I never knew how Jet Set Radio Esc Gin And Sin was at the beginning of the song.

Recently, high quality scans of the album cover were posted here www.reddit.com/r/SSX/comments/hmtz5a/the_ssx_music_to_grind_to_promotional_cd_music/

[@korben0001]

it's been years and I'm still searching for similar style without finding. I'm not going to give up that easily but maybe some of you guys know of some artists or title with similar vibes

[@Dockovytch]

Try maybe « jungle techno game music » maybe you will find some Treasure…

[@merquplex]

try 'atmosphere deeper drum & bass volume 1'

[@APollenus]

Would be nice if you published this CD (and the other one you mentioned in the description) on Discogs! :)

[@harryfox105]

Has anyone got the ripped mp3/WAVs? Would love to get my hands on them

[@lordcabal]

Here are most of them www.merqurycity.com/ssxpages/music.html

[@Ruckelpups]

Does anyone know what the Character Selection Song was called in SSx Tricky? Why aren't these songs on spotify?

[@RovenamiChannel]

I'm pretty sure "Himalayas" was used for Mesablanca in SSX Tricky

[@kiko12000]

A real kind person online actually sent me this CD for free, i can take high res scans of the cover if anyone wants em

[@MattCipolla]

Is “Himalayas” the original version of Mesablanca’s intro track in SSX TRICKY?

[@theharvardyard2356]

Yep!

[@trcnts]

the Harvard Yard huh?

[@theharvardyard2356]

@@trcnts it's the full version of the short music track that plays during the overview video for that course

[@trcnts]

the Harvard Yard oh alright. thanks for uploading this. these songs all make me think of those circut riders. they scared the hell out of me when i was a kid lol. but amazing memories

[@Slayboarder.]

So the only intro sequence song that's omitted is the one for the Tokyo Megaplex? You think there's a full length variant for that one too?

[@lordcabal]

This site has all of the tracks, including the megaplex intro -> www.merqurycity.com/ssxpages/music.html.

[@lordcabal]

Actually I just checked again, seems like the menu theme, snowdream intro, Downtime and Punk Shock (I think that's what the song was called? It plays on elysium alps) are missing. They can probably be ripped from the game files though.

[@theharvardyard2356]

@@lordcabal I'm getting an error message from that site. Is there a way to navigate there from the forums? They seem to be the only thing still up.

[@MrDani99xtrm]

If any of you have a gaming PC please do yourself a favor and download PCSX2! It is legit and yes, the game is exactly as how we all remember it. It has aged well and it still holds up!!

[@trcnts]

what genre of music would this be called

[@starmaverick011]

Squints I said it’s fall under electronic/EDM Genres(Big beat/breakbeat with speed freak can fall under tech trance as well)

[@pg9193]

it would be called music to grind to

[@trcnts]

@Loui Eriksson oh damn. thx

[@Heliosphan33]

@Loui Eriksson Current mainstream electronic music is in a rough spot right now. I’m glad we still have these gems to enjoy though.

[@daddykong6388]

in which country was it offered? Thanks for uploading, it's a gem (big ssx 1 fan here)

[@xx_PCCR_xx]

is there a way to find out the artists and tracks? i love every single song here!

[@digitaldeathsquid3448]

I think in the description it says all the songs on this album were composed by EA Sports BIG in-house composer John Morgan. He contributed a few other tracks to the SSX series including Bass Invaders (the SSX Tricky theme tune) and Buffet Of Breaks (SSX 3)

[@speck_the_nomad]

11:22 Deadmau5 Moar Ghosts N' Stuff... hard intro sample?????????

[@theharvardyard2356]

Good ear! I can't find what the exact sample is, as neither song has an entry on Whosampled, but would be interested to know!

[@manisazu]

Thanks to Trash Taste, I found out about this game.

[@blacksun8435]

Where can i buy one of these cd:s?

[@kiko12000]

They’re extremely rare and unfortunately are not for sale anywhere.

[@ThrowedGenji]

Is the song that plays during Untracked level here?

[@theharvardyard2356]

No, I believe that was a licensed track. This is the original tracks by the game's composer.

[@aarongreene4634]

If anyone has anyway to get a physical copy of this still in 2022 please lmk. I’ll sell my first born child
