@@Hewkll not as often lol. Clubbing is great but that was space club. It's much much different and kind of cool. Plus, it was based around a city with lots of criminals and space gangs.

Thank you for your comment, I just found out about his death today and to be honest, your comment summed up how I feel as well aside from becoming a music producer (took a different career path at school). Ive been a big fan of his music along with Rom di Prisco's in the classic Need for Speed series and in recent years, the inclusion of Callista in Mass Effect. I was sad to see the news, i remember recognizing the music artists that made all these tracks when i was a kid. Its nice to see other fans enjoying and remembering these tracks now.

[@malfnction]

NFS and ME are two very different kinds of games, and not everyone who plays Mass Effect plays car/racing games like NFS, myself included, so there might be why many people don't recognize the song. That this melody is one that was in an NFS game and then got used in Mass Effect 2 is really cool though!

[@GeneralProfessor]

ME2 took music from all over the place. This one from NFS:HS, some Citadel stores play Sim City 4 tracks and at least one club has a song from SSX.

[@zodiac909]

YES!

[@Griffin_Clan]

Coming up 15 years after the release of Mass Effect 2, this game is still amazing, and is made even better with the release of Legendary Edition. Since I walked into that club for the first time, I knew that it was going to be my favourite game, at least for a while, and the Mass Effect Legendary Edition Trilogy is my favourite game of all time. This song is so good, and just walking into the club every time hits me with exactly the same feeling every time I replay the games. They're just too good not to! Old games are always the best games, there's no doubt in my mind. When I'm not playing old single-player games such as (of course) Mass Effect, I'm playing War Thunder, which is 11 years old too (although still regularly updated). New games just don't have the same charm.

[@Fizz-Pop]

I grew up watching Star Wars and Star Trek in the 80/90s and I played video games. I wanted so badly for the 2 to cross over. When Mass Effect was announced and by my favorite studio no less?

[@mrsecify]

Yeah, I remember watching some guy's review of recommended Xbox 360 games back in the day when ME2 got announced and he spent solid 15 minutes of the 20 minute video talking about how great and amazing Mass Effect 2 is and all I remember was rolling my eyes and thinking "this guy can't be serious, didn't this guy ever watch Star Wars movies. This must be a rip off of Star Wars of some sort" and not playing it until 2012 or so and got my mind blown away. Now I'm on my 6th or 7th playthrough of the game and well over 1500 hours invested into the game and I loved every single second of it. ME really is something special that I wasn't able to find in any other work of fiction whether it be a book, a movie, a tv show or another video game. It's just irreplaceable in every way. And trust me, I tried. A lot :D Edit: 1.5k hours, not 15k. Fixed that :D

[@Themosthybrid]

A lot of people love the 2nd over the first but as great as that game is i can't agree. the only reason is probably because i played #1 first. 15000 hours that's insanity. you're hardcore. glad you love it so much it is def worth the love. I'm big on game music as well and this game as well as the first do not disappoint. Amazing soundtracks.

There is something I really love about the Afterlife club's ambiance and I'm not even the type of guy who frequents this kind of club IRL. You really feel like you enter in both a very dangerous place, but also a very seductive and enthralling one. It also has an atmosphere simillar to the dark alleys of the movie Blade Runner. The only thing that really disappointed me in ME2 is that there wasn't enough to do in the club! I would have loved to have a bit more conversations/assignments there. Despite this, I think this was one of the most memorable place in the whole series, maybe even in the whole video game history.

Love that song! It fits so perfectly for Afterlife. I still get goosebumps when I think of the first time I played ME2 and entered the club and the music got louder, that was so awesome. Sounds funny but that was the moment that established the ME-Series at the top of my top-games-list. Still playing all four parts on a regular basis!

[@TylerInTraining]

Across the board the music in this game is so well written and composed. Half the reason I'd be able to spend a good half hour trying to customize the perfect armor for Shepard was for having this song play in the background, nevermind the atmosphere that comes up when you go to Afterlife... truly a terrific game.

[@rvymvn]

I know we all remember it from mass effect. But who remembers it from need for speed?

[@rezeren5326]

***** mhm i don't mate which need for speed?

[@rvymvn]

Para Norm Need for speed: High Stakes. An old, old game

[@rezeren5326]

***** i think i have copy laying around of high stakes lol, where are the times

[@rvymvn]

Para Norm I know right, hearing this song instantly took me back

[@ElieHaykal]

***** You are so right. No wonder I got some weird flashbacks.

[@Disco5100]

No matter if this song has 20 years...it fits perfect with ME atmosphere.

[@leifleifnephew5154]

This really was the absolute perfect song for Mass Effect 2. It perfectly captures the feel of the game.

[@Dexyu]

Suacide first the game better, in my mind, still this is one sexy beat, sad that Andromeda hasn't got any good beats.

[@srdjanstevanovic4245]

Saki Kaskas, the hero if EA soundtracks, sunce the last century. His songs were reason alone to buy a game with sometimes less than mediocre gameplay. Rest in peace Legend.

[@sanguirous5183]

Cannot wait to revisit the place in the remastered version..

[@MarkiplierBestMoments]

That's Mass Effect.. Will I ever experience that again?

[@NotAHamster]

"broke Omegas only rule, in more ways than one"

[@zachw.1096]

Is it just me that feels really emotional when I play this game? To me, it's barely a game, it's like a really engaging book or movie. I can't stop thinking about it, the story is so deep and it speaks to me on a spiritual level. Maybe it's just me knowing I won't live to see a day when interstellar travel may happen...and so I want to be able to experience that life though this game.

[@ChrisHaastrup]

It's a good game, but maybe you smoked too much weed when you played it.

[@samanthapatrick4345]

on mass effect 2 afterlife is where i spent most of my time because i absolutely loved the music and i still love it

[@jakubsarnowski9050]

One of the best club tracks in ME series. I couldn't leave Afterlife because of this amazing music.

[@tacospartan]

It’s pretty amazing that a song originally released for a need for speed game back in ‘99 fit in so seamlessly with this game in 2010

[@GDDR14]

I remember on my first playthrough in Mass effect 2 when i stepped foot in Omega and heard this music. The atmosphere was great and it was like you were really there as Shepard . I thought to myself: "2 years disappeared from my life, the group i used to fight against brought me back from the dead, i'm sorrounded by people i have never seen in my life before and basically i don't know what should i do but damn, this music is awesome!"

[@georgejansen4089]

Bioware should open a club really, Mass Effect theme, this music, can't go wrong with that.

[@GameslordXY]

Wait what? This was uploaded 5 months before ME2 came out! How can that be? Someone? Anyone? Please? Pretty please?

[@carlnimator007]

Time travel baby.

[@MarcLeoNyu]

I paid attention and at the last second I hear the sound of the main menu of Need For Speed 4. Maybe the song was taken from there.

[@longtailgt]

MarcLeoNyu What are you talking about? The song IS FROM Need for Speed 4: High Stakes.

[@MarcLeoNyu]

***** That's exactly what I said. The song is from Need for Speed 4: High Stakes and in the last second of the video I can hear the sound of the main menu of the game to confirm it. What's wrong? Is because I said "maybe" rather than "surely"?

[@longtailgt]

MarcLeoNyu My bad. I read the thing wrong. Yeah, I too can here the main menu sound at the end. Also if you listen carefully in the beginning, you can hear the "button clicking" sound from High Stakes in the background.

[@Nettacki]

this is bizarre. I first heard this song in Need For Speed High Stakes. Didn't even know it ended up in a Mass Effect game years later. Interesting to know.

[@McSquiddington]

Not only that, but the synth beats are used for Afterlife, while the early oboe cues are used for Samara's theme. So you technically hear the whole song in ME2, but separated into two distinct entities.

[@nordm8535]

The song just fits 100% perfectly in Mass Effect 2 when entering the Club Afterlife on Planet Omega. When I heard it in NFSHS in 99 it didn't make sense, didn't fit the game.

[@mattmartino1]

Geil Ganso It was only in the replay section unless you changed it, It calms you down after a long race it fits perfectly with NFS HS

[@porsche911sbs]

Bunta Fujiwara I remember it being the menu music. At least for the PC version (was there a console version?).

[@Nettacki]

Essess Nine Yes there was a PS1 version of the game.

[@anasmoukhliss]

i just want a bar like that exactly

[@iownalx23]

xX_AceHunter_Xx same. would be the best place in the galaxy

[@mirzoanisyakubov6794]

Be careful with batarian bartender:)))

[@connormcguire6296]

RIP SAKI - You belong in the electronic music hall of fame.

[@whackugud]

Don't trust the batarian bartender, my heart feels funny after one of his drinks

[@johnyrollerr2479]

He doesn't feel nothing already after i made him drink that one of his own drinks

[@iAussieGuy]

Man, this brings back so many memories. I love the original Mass Effect 1-3, the games were top notch, also this song is amazing

[@SuperStarhawk]

it's good to know that in the future we're still listening to 90s techno music from old racing games

[@joefidell4068]

How can u dislike this absolute tune

[@khayn]

God damn'ed drunken nostalgia! This is great, I return to this track every few months or weeks. One of most rememberable tracks of my gaming career (since 1980's) and Mass Effect is my beloved series of all time

[@Rude_Boi]

Walking into this level of the club solidified Mass Effect 2 as one of my favorite games of all time. It was the moment I fell in love with Mass Effect.

[@Shashin54]

Ahhhh the memories....... I remember starting to play Mass Effect back in 2007. Don't tell anyone, but Garrus and Wrex was my favorite. ;) (and still are) :P

[@windwind3170]

There is only one rule on Omega.

[@10Tabris01]

Fucking with Aria...*inhales*... problematic. Fucking Aria less so

[@masterchief3989]

Asari and Turians ruling the galaxy; the primitives of my cycle used to hunt wild animals to feed themselves...

[@commando6261]

And if you forget it, someone will remind you.

[@JoachimVampire]

don't ask for a drink if youre human :V xDDD

[@ciphernine8743]

Or if you're Mordin, just break the rules. In more than one way....

[@AndyMiller79]

im commander shephard and this is my favorite tune on omaga

[@AnotherZaltman]

"This is Commander Shepard and this is my favorite chill song ever"

[@Xorobabel]

Remembering when my brother used to go to the music menu on Need for Speed: High Stakes and play this at full volume on the TV. Rest in peace, Daniel and Saki Kaskas.

[@hakanucar5506]

I hope the new Cyberpunk 2077 will be like Mass Effect 2!

[@johnyrollerr2479]

I just started playind ME trilogy recently, and when i first came into the Afterlife i was like :"Why do you need Cyberpunk when you got this" lol

[@matthewgraham3330]

I’m from the future It’s not

[@johnl.clarke1791]

😅🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ShamirAbdul1]

everything has gone to shit with the gaming industry

[@cropsey7412]

That did not age well.

[@shisno7914]

Just started the Legendary collection over this weekend. Can’t wait to get back to Afterlife in ME2. Such a beautiful club.

[@Garrus1995]

Mass Effect 2 truly was something else. I remember getting it on PS3 (I didn't own a 360) a year after everyone else, but as soon as I really got into that game, I never wanted to leave. The characters, gameplay, the lore and of course the indescribable awesomeness of Afterlife and Omega as a whole left me always wanting to go back for more. I sincerely hope BioWare gets their shit together and goes back to making masterpieces like this game.

[@rodrigobasualto1200]

Ps3 is shit

[@3deryk]

I wonder how many people know that this track was originally on the need for speed 4 soundtrack released back in 1999 and was played in the showcase menu... Love this tune since then.

[@30071997kario]

Perhaps in the *afterlife*, i’ll be listening to this far away on a *darkstar* for forever and all *eternity*

[@LightHOwUSE]

R.I.P. Saki... Your music will live forever in my ears.

[@16Vagabond]

Stepping into that club was the moment I fell in love with Mass Effect forever. ME2 will always be my favorite. Loved the gritty atmosphere.

[@Jramssy]

I love that this mix has Samara's theme in the background unlike the original. True Mass Effect here
