The Incredible Machine - Even More Contraptions - Full Soundtrack

[@ZeroKelvin440]

I'm sure this is a weird comment to leave, but finding this made my evening. I spent a long time playing this game as a kid, and the sheer burst of nostalgia from listening to all these tracks I assumed were lost to the ages made me feel great. However much time you spent making and uploading this, I hope it was worth it just for making one guy's evening a lot better. Tracks #2 and #20 are my favorites.

[@vtrmusiclog]

I love reading comments like these. Glad you liked it! :)

[@mumujibirb]

Same for me, excapt I like 3 also. The nostalga...

[@excrono]

@@vtrmusiclogThank you for presenting this OST, I did not come here from nostalgia and am now appreciating great music for its own sake.

[@kikko.mosola6432]

[@nightowl8862]

That is why I'm here! Also tuna loaf.

[@Zigtyr]

@@nightowl8862 It was definitely Tuna Loaf for me. Thanks so much! Had a random flashback today and did like 30 minutes of research tracking down the name of this game. I'm 26 and have been whistling this song for years not remembering where I heard it. This game had a crazy impact on my when I was very young. Played it all the time about as far back as I have memories.

[@WishMakers]

This theme has absolutely *unmatched* nostalgia value for me. One of the first games I've ever played. I'm so happy the soundtrack exists somewhere in relatively uncompromised audio quality. Thank you for uploading it!!

Song 21, "Game Show" has been stuck in my head for ages, more than a decade. Love that little tune.

[@excrono]

If you’ve ever watched “The Price is Right”, you’ve probably heard similar cues from its 1983 package that bring that to mind. “Game Show” is a direct homage to it.

[@EmpanadaDeCaca]

@@excrono Thanks, i'll check it out!

[@excrono]

@@EmpanadaDeCaca Specifically, the TPIR cue “Brioche” from 1976, this sounds like it was remixed in the 83 style.

[@excrono]

@@EmpanadaDeCacaAlso, I recently realized that “Slappy’s Theme” is a down low tribute to another TPIR cue “Bhen”.

[@nathancombs527]

I was watching a different video. Heard a snippet of the song at 48:00, and I knew I remembered it. I couldn't remember where from. Then it hit me. Images of ramps, boxing gloves, bowling balls, nitro glycerin. Then it all came back listening to the rest of the songs. An amazing soundtrack for an equally great game.

[@Dreegon1486]

Dude! I've just spent about 2 hours TRYING SO HARD to find the song 'Pictures' because I got a snippet of my childhood playing this game and I finally found it and I think I just made my year

[@excrono]

It’s a cover of “Pictures at an Exhibition” by Mussorgsky.

[@Quantumironturtle]

I found my old CD of this game a few days back, and upon discovering it still worked I was instantly hit with nostalgia, along with the realization the soundtrack was amazing. That led to me looking it up, which led me here. Thank you for saving this, we have way too much data loss from old games as it is.

[@duscarasheddinn8033]

I still have this game, and it still works on my Windows 10. I'd consider it nostalgic.

[@liz2956]

Oh, man. I played this game religiously as a kid. It was my all-time favorite, even if at six I had a hard time with some of the advanced puzzles. I wish I still had a copy. I would totally play it again. Thanks for uploading all the songs, it brought back so many nostalgic feels for me. :) Track 03 was my favorite back then. I used it as the theme in all my custom levels. It's nice to hear again. :3

[@andyjude6761]

I know there is little chance of you seeing that but you can find copies of the game online now! It's classified as 'abandonware' so that means that the game is no longer for sale by, or maintained by the developer so no legal/moral issues about downloading a copy to keep the nostalgia alive

[@tauronmitronion377]

Yes! I'd been listening to the music from The Incredible Machine 3 and had no idea the Even More Contraptions soundtrack was on KZbin! Thank you, sir or madam!

I definitely agree about Mellow Jazz. When I realized you could change the song (way too late sadly), it was all Mellow Jazz all the time.

Completely forgot about this game until my brother sent me a random video of it. This game defined our childhood, and I'm pretty sure the music is entirely to blame for me growing up to be a semi-professional string bass jazz musician

This game is my childhood, absolutely loved it in, like around 2013? I know I was like 9 or 10. I still find myself playing it every once in a while, and I honestly think half of it is thanks to this GORGEOUS soundtrack. This soundtrack is like, Portal 2 levels of banger

I remember resenting the fact they took out Ragtime while keeping bland Bongo Bango. If you loaded any TIM 3 puzzles with Ragtime it played Game Show instead which just wasn't the same. I love Spooky and wish they used it in more than one puzzle!

[@ccjr.allsorts]

This whole OST is great. I love how the some of the tracks are stylistic homages to other musicians. Unplugged kinda sounds like John Mellencamp (Crumblin' Down) mixed with Lynyrd Skynyrd. New Age sounds like something David Gilmour would do in the Division Bell. Hay Seed sounds like Charlie Daniels. Mellow Jazz could be something out of Culture Club World Beat is a genre-based song, but could also be something Peter Gabriel would do. Hip Hop sounds like Eminem. For kids. Tuna Loaf should be obvious. New Wave is genre-based, but sounds closest to Gary Numan. Could also be Oingo Boingo 60's rock, genre based again, sounds closest to The Doors. Progressive rock, once again genre based, sounds most like Europe with that synth. Reggae, genre based, gives me vibes closest to Big Mountain, to be honest. Truckin' sounds like Huey Lewis and the News a little bit, mixed with some Steward Copeland Spyro music vibes. Did I miss any others?

[@excrono]

Game Show is a tribute to an item up for bids theme from the 1983 music cue package and the 1976 cue “Brioche” from “The Price is Right”, full stop complete with the Fender Rhodes break. ​​⁠Also, I recently realized that “Slappy’s Theme” is a down low tribute to another TPIR cue “Bhen”. Title Theme (Return of The Incredible Machine) is straight ahead Jazz Fusion.

[@AmauryGarciaCumming]

Love it. No MIDI versions, though?

[@vanishy0urself]

I'm torn. On the one hand, this game (and the previous Contraptions) had new music in comparison to TIM 3. On the other hand, all the old tracks went through some incredibly trashy "loudness war" compression -- and my favorite track suffered the most from it. Oh, Techno Rave, what did they DO to you? :( It's not just a KZbin thing, either -- KZbin vids of the TIM3 version of that track sound better than it did in TIM:EMC IN THE GAME! But the new music is great -- World Beat, Spooky, etc... and thanks for the upload, no one else seems to have the EMC-only songs on KZbin.

[@FerSave1]

late response but, agreed, the quality loss is an issue, and as they carry the songs from version to version the damage just stacks.

[@excrono]

I went to a single track OST video to leave a comment and know what you are talking about, it’s a tragedy that is the only experience some players know. That isn’t loudness war compression, it’s sloppy compression.

Where can I download this soundtrack? I'd love to get it without ripping youtube videos.

[@magik603]

I find it quite weird that I thought about the music from this game and searched it on youtube and then I found this video that was uploaded 3 weeks ago. What if I thought about this game 1 month ago? I would have found nothing at all and I would have thought that nobody gives a shit about this game. Having it hard coded into my brain I wouldnt bother searching for it at all. This kind of thing keeps happening to me very often for example discovering new great random songs that were uploaded like 1-5 days ago. Had I searched for them a few days before I would have never discovered a new great, inspiring artist. Love the songs from old games that had midi songs. Examples are Tetris 4000(allthough they are only covers of famous songs), Sammy Suricate, Monkey Brains, Greenface and lots more. Also the Sims 1 had great new age music(not midi) The only bad part is that you didnt include any photo, even the cover of the game. But still good. 4:52 - 03. New Age - has been playing in my mind for these 15 years then i skipped to 29:52 - 13. 1959 Prom - HOLY SHIT that eargasm :D 32:25 - 14. Hip Hop - really sick groove

If you are ever too early to discover something in the future, don’t give up, your idea may bear fruit from trying again in the future.

Some of the endings of the tim2/3 songs seem to be cut off such as the end of hip hop where the "I don't know" part is missing. I want to know if that is just how they sound in this game or is it something else

Most end on a splice point so they can be seamlessly lopped in the game.
