I can't tell you how much I've love this piece and renditions since UT 99. Even when I play Quake this is the go to song to frag on. Seriously, thank you for this eternal piece. *loads DM - Malevolence with Adept bots to first to 50.

Couldn't agree more. It's a classic for the ages.

[@happystash]

This is definitely one of my favorited break beat intelligent drum and bass mix's in history, and being I was listening to it at 6 -7 years old makes it even more nostalgic, trickshot off the tower, playing with your local buddies, this was it in the 90s

[@VintageModernRemixes]

Hell yes, I love that era of electronic music. It wasn't as "hi-fi" but who cares... luckily a lot of modern EDM artists still keep the vibe alive

[@helgenx]

Unreal Tournament was my first FPS game that I played online (Dreamcast,) and competitive game I ever got into on both PC and DC, and I swear to god I miss every minute of it till this day, and I'm 41 now. I miss my clan, I miss the homeys, I miss the shit talk, I miss the good maps, the good music, the ambience, chilling in space killing people, shit was too fucking dope.

[@VintageModernRemixes]

Woah, Dreamcast eh? I never knew anyone who had this on Dreamcast so that's cool that you were playing dial up on a console

[@VintageModernRemixes]

It was quite the time to be alive!

[@rokkokeep1020]

facing worlds, one of the greatest maps ever created, in one of the best games ever created, so sad people didn't like UT3, it was the ultimate UT experience. If they just had made a solid UT4 foundation then the community could have created all the maps and mods it would have needed.

[@VintageModernRemixes]

I really liked UT3, it's a shame there was not much going on in multiplayer. I think it was pretty much perfect as far as game mechanics and balance, particularly weapons.

[@rokkokeep1020]

exactly, balance was superior, and vehicle ctf was also extremely balanced, but people always cried because they could be killed in one second by some powerful vehicle weapons. But for skilled player it was no problem to handle all these vehicles. I played UT3 last year on some private servers, I guess they are still online and it's possible to play some of the nice custom maps. If you are lucky you could find 1 or 2 players online :)@@VintageModernRemixes

[@VintageModernRemixes]

The sad part is that even back when the game was relatively new, there were still only 1 or 2 players :(@@rokkokeep1020

I am saying goodbye to the 1hr version and hi to this one.

[@VintageModernRemixes]

It's a worthy upgrade. At this point I regret making this as "short" as 2 hours. I'm going to revise it next year using footage from all the maps that use this song, and also make it really long like at least 4 hours. Thanks for listening!

A greatest cypersport map in the history of gaming. I remember how I used a redeemer in this map and also got myself dropped into a space 😂

[@VintageModernRemixes]

It's the best. I always liked to grab the Redeemer and then go up to the roof and jump down to a ledge on the back of the tower where no one will see me. Good times.

[@EyBoyO]

Hah I use these for background music a lot and it's easy to get lost in it and not realize I just listened to the same song 20 times. Glad you find it useful.

[@z74d-oy2uj]

This music, sound and game design is perfectly capturing the somewhat uneasy tech optimism of 90s. Raves, computers, psychedelics, neo-60s renaissance, to the future through the past - entertainment as dope as lsd. Nick Land and the Lemuroid Time Wizards from the Future with their Fanged Noumena. The 'U' logo has it.

[@VintageModernRemixes]

That's a wonderful description of the culture at the time. I know what you mean. Actually Timothy Leary towards the end of his life said "the internet is the LSD of the 90s"

[@z74d-oy2uj]

Yes, I recall now the TL quote. Things have gone much more rhyzomatic nowadays. I am missing that PC games are not the 'new new' thing. Imho, at least to me, they have lost the 'magic' of new and radical fantasy. I remember, when Tomb Rider came out, and later they made a Tomb rider movie. They do not make movies of games anymore, to my knowledge. It's the another way around again. Tho I am not a big fan of Tomb Rider. @@VintageModernRemixes

[@tigerzero5216]

This video is a nice reminder of when I played this map. It was a challenge. This could have been better with clips of actual character game play. You make me want to play it. Can that be done on now? Back then It was on XP. I have Win 7 and 11. If it requires a product key, the server may no longer be there.

[@VintageModernRemixes]

You can still run UT99 no problem on modern Windows. This video should help you get it set up: www.reddit.com/r/unrealtournament/comments/138xway/how_to_play_unreal_tournament_1999_in_2023_online/

When I saw this version, I first thought 2h was over the top, but then, I remembered I spent wayyy more than 2h playing CTF-Face, and it all made sense! Very cool rework!

[@VintageModernRemixes]

Thanks, yeah CTF-Face, as small a map as it is, provides infinite fun and frags.

[@ArnieMcStranglehold]

I think I've played CTF-Face with every single game mode that UT99 shipped with, and many more through mods. I know for a fact that I modified a version for almost every team gametype, too. None of those maps survived time, however. Except... the one where I put mortar spawners in the sky to make being outside hazardous.

[@jasonschuster]

Hours and hours and hours and hours... And some of the fondest memories that I waa too young to really appreciate. But it got me looking for raves and "electronica" clubs in the San Francisco Bay Area when i was old enough a few years later... So theres there's that 😃🤙🏼

[@VintageModernRemixes]

Great times! The music style in UT was sort of the final act for the tracker/Demoscene music style that started in the late 80s. As far as electronic music goes it's very unique and has its own charm, while a bit rough around the edges at times, it never gets old for me. 🥳

[@hornet718]

I need to load this game up, crank up my sound system and time travel back to the realm of the UNREAL!!!

All true! I remember I had a measly Pentium 166 MHz and I could barely run the original Unreal in the smallest screen for maximum framerate, and it was still barely playable, but Unreal was so amazing that I just dealt with it hah

[@jokor0453]

If I look at the video it reminds me of playing this game for hours after school. The simplicity of the graphics (when I see it now), the music❤ and the cool sounds when you made a headshot or monster kill made me playing this. I had no mobile phone or internet to get distracted from, only Age of Empires, Wolvenstein and this beauty. Thanks for making this mix.

[@VintageModernRemixes]

That's my favorite era of gaming right there. The only distractions would be an IM on AIM or ICQ, where you'd have to ALT+TAB out of the game, then the game crashes, then your computer crashes with the blue-screen-of-death, then you reset and your master boot record is corrupted. Those were the days!

[@Mr_Doon]

I know it's so cheesy to say "I was born in the wrong generation" But a part of me is sad that I missed out on the rise of personal computers. I'm studying computer engineering and it's all just learning about what a bunch of people developed 30 years ago. Maybe 30 years ago I could have been one of those people, defining standards and paving the way for progress. Nowadays, there's so much computer that it all just feels like a drop in the ocean.

[@VintageModernRemixes]

I agree, I only caught the tail end of this exciting period you're talking about. When I started using computers in elementary school, the Intel 486 was the monster super fast machine. It ran Doom very well (very well back then was like 20 fps lol) Then when the Pentium chip came out, we got true 3d like Quake and Unreal. Point is that each generation of processing power felt like we launched 10 years into the future, and it happened every year or two. We went from Wolfenstein 3D to Unreal in five years. But around the early 2000s is when it got boring for me. Each new generation of tech is often just a new lick of paint or making something shiny that wasn't shiny enough before.

[@VintageModernRemixes]

And regarding the software side of things, in the 80s most applications were written from scratch in assembly. A long way from what we can do now where you reference a library and write a five line program.
