For some reason, it won’t let me edit this comment, so I’ll just reply to it to say, I did in fact buy the game without much idea on what exactly the game was (all I’d seen on the game was this video). I just heard this cool music and thought “surely this game must be awesome”. It is.
2:32 My first time hearing this track I was (Heroicly) running away from a shit ton of the clankers with the chainsaw hands. My pump shotgun synced up so well with each trumpet, as well as the automatons getting knocked back, falling apart or getting cleaved in half by the shots gave me a hell of a rush. On top of that I then had to run (Heroicly) from the mortar blasts of a sentry. I've never felt so immersed in a horde shooter before.

Don’t you worry fellow diver I’ve been doing the same! Had to blend quite a few different clips together to get it sounding right as the game audio is programmed to dip down anytime a voice line is played! Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it!
@@cosmic3077 So we basically got to wait untill the Composer and Devs release an "Official" composition if we really want a full quality OST. Till then stitched together clips and loops guestimated by fans or recordings directly from the game are all we have.
The first time I heard that loop was on Fenrir III fighting two Bile Titans on the extraction zone. It really makes you fight for managed democracy harder!@@TheJediBiscuit
@@t.nippes Exactly! Just ignore all the authoritarian things going on in the background. We wouldn't want to get send to a freedom camp now, would we? :)
@@idkwhatcoolnametouse8987 dont know. When the plane lands it says "pelican 1 approaching extraction zone" the same voice with this line. You could be correct.
When you notice the extract is taking unusually long and then you realize you still got at least two more minutes of absolute hell left. Thank you Complex Stratagem Plotting, I love holding out against the mounting hordes way beyond what should be possible
very epic tho, and if you survive, you just won against insurmountable odds. I still vividly remember my fight on the Creek to evac safely with my buddies and the samples.
POV: You have all the samples and are halfway across the map, two teammates went to deal with the last large automaton outpost you all left behind because you only had 3 reinforcements left, and the fourth called extraction way too early and just died, and now the extraction site is its own automaton outpost.
The soundtracks in this game contribute so much more to how I actually feel in the moment than I realise. That feeling of having to lock in for that 1-2 minute extract is only as intense as it is because of this banger soundtrack
I was the last one alive in my squad, surrounded and chased by a hundred bugs, out of stims, no resupply available, no reinforcements, and being chased by 3 chargers. Jammed out to this track while sprinting and dodging for the longest 2 minutes of my life. Made it to the shuttle 2 seconds before it left.
THE HELLDIVERS HAVE SECURED SNOY HEADQUARTERS! ATTENTION ALL HELLDIVERS The Automatons who took over Snoy Headquarters have been successfully eliminated. LIBERTY now governs Super Earth once again. MANAGED DEMOCRACY shall now continue to spread throughout the galaxy. All Helldivers who fought in this battle shall be commended the highest honour.
I will never forget the time my squad were running out of time and we had old CSP with a 4 minute extraction time. Release Helldive difficulty, with this music blaring on our final possible stand against the bugs. Time to extract was 4 minutes but we had 3 minutes left on the clock. It's been a long while since I last felt an adrenaline rush playing a game, but Helldivers has done that well.
Absolute banger of an extract theme My favorite part is definitely the first 10 seconds that plays everytime Such a short part but really sets the tone that some shit is about to go down. Gets even better with the higher the difficulty. Really gets the blood flowing
Verified banger right here. Hearing this while playing HellDiver difficulty waiting for extract with 1 revive and 2 minutes on the main clock, with like an 8-10 minute exfil timer. An experience to say the least lol
The game engine plays the sounds in dynamic loops, i could make a version with an extended intro but id have to know for certain which parts you mean as it varies each time?
Not a music guy so forgive me for my lack of technical terms. So the opening notes that descend went once. Then it's followed by the high repeated note, and the echo of the repeated note down in the lows. Both of those play twice instead of once when you're in a quiet area for extraction (ie your buddies extracted and you're sprinting towards it from halfway accross the map) That high and low repeated note call/response thing is just really cool to me, and it only happens at the begining of extraction. Once normally, or twice when it's quiet for extract.
I love how it sounds in game. It is just quiet enough to make your gunshots, stratagem call-ins, enemies, and voice lines a part of the song while not changing much with the background music.
POV: "Extraction T - 3 minutes" no reinforcements, last one, super helldive, you have most of the samples, 10 titan, 2 impalers, 7 charger, 10000 hunters. Fun right😅
At 4:11 i got this feeling when you out of time all team wiped, you surrounded by hulks, annihilators and many MANY other bot types that just juggle with you, and somehow this ragdolling mess stops for a moment, you take apportunity and rush at pelican-1 using your last stim and leave this doomed place, to do all of this again after 45 minutes.
Ah, the moment I usually get shot while I am trying to get into the shuttle and robbed of the samples I collected by the team mate, that was constantly trying to kill me the whole match.
3:41 that moment when everyone has already jumped into pelican 1 and you're the last helldiver clutching the escape as hundreds of automatons are blasting at you
Finally, one that doesn’t sound like I’m being submerged in water half the time

Thank you so much brother! Been looking for the theme with this level of quality and all the musical cues to it.

2:32 I love the staccato of the trumpets in this section
I agree. The trumpet is truly the best instrument.
May democracy be with you
those are horns at first (the trumpets dont come in until about 2:40)
100% best mix so far. Wonder why the raw audio file has not been pulled yet.
Part of it could be the kernel-level AntiCheat they use. Tends to make any level of tampering/extracting of hidden game files harder.
it’s because the track is actually dynamic, reacting to your in game status, so it’s made up of like 20-30 second clips in the files
@@cosmic3077 So we basically got to wait untill the Composer and Devs release an "Official" composition if we really want a full quality OST.

3:55 hits different. Its kinda the super earth theme but more epic. In my opinion the best part in this theme.
Which is unfortunate because the official OST version of this song that just dropped cut that part out😢
