I always felt that Perfect Dark had an awesome soundtrack in general but this track is one of the first ones that comes to mind whenever I think about the soundtrack for this game. Hearing or thinking about this track years later now takes me back to my twelve year old self and makes me remember how life was like back then. That was a really good time to be alive as a kid.
After 20 years of a crazy rollercoaster in life, 15 years of relationships, one marriage, drug addiction, near death experience and much more I come back to this song just to get the chills again. There are not many songs that give me "the" feeling I used to get as a teenager while walking 15-20km during the night in heavy rain alongside the highway in a dead silent city... This brings back so much more than just simple memories...
@goukimaster353 oh they have the tech since 1954, its just not release to the public yet for obvious macro economic and socio economic greed and power
Friends used to get annoyed at me because I always set it to this theme during multiplayer. It's such a soft, quiet piece. You're playing late at night, the music is lulling you into a sleepy daze, then suddenly the Dark Sim pops out and obliterates you in a loud blaze of gunfire that snaps you awake.
Lmfao Im crying laughing dawg ours was always set to just random bcuz we didn't give a shit about the music we had too many other customs my fav thing to this day you could create multiple setups for diff multi lobbies and save em all then just quick start on whatever the fucking old days bro
Still one of the best FPS of all time. The music, the weapons, the difficulty, everything was perfect about this game. I wish games could be made like this again. I'm so sick of COD fanboys bashing good games. I'll be willing to bet that if they ever played this they would never play COD again.
Since i play shooters on PC i think shooters should always be played on PC with Mouse and keyboard But then coming across perfect dark again Having the title of my first shooter ever played at my friends house Replayed it on emulator Well the controls and graphics are bad but everything else more than makes up for it Everything else is just perfect and no modern game gets close to it weapon felling and unikness stuff like the laptop gun, or the selfdestruct gun Animation level design Even decent destruction
it kinda sucks cause i was so young when i played this game, i didn't realize the N64 games, very much including Perfect Dark, had truly quality campaigns. Now i look back and compare them with the campaigns coming out today, and there is LITERALLY no comparison. I MISS YOU N64 DAYS! COME BACK TO US!!
Listening to this in my moonlit room. The music lights up regions of my brain. It takes me back to the age of innocence, evoking emotions of peace and serenity. A slight grin charms my face, i close my eyes and yawn. The music envelopes me. It surrounds me with all too familiar sounds and emotions. I can feel the cool plastic of the perfectly molded N64 controller. My finger gently laying on the trigger. The sound of rain patting Chicago's streets. I shoot the nearest light source...let's begin.
Uncle knocks on the door. "Are you asleep son?" He enters and wordlessly he picks up a second controller. He stares at you in the eye until you start the game again on co-operative. Then he costs you the mission. After losing for the 10th time, you put the controller down. Uncle tells you "Not a word of this to anyone." You turn away from him and lie down under your bed covers. Uncle walsk downstairs and you can hear him joke with his buddies about how he had to carry you through the game, and how young 'uns don't know nuthin. A single tear rolls down your cheek. As you lay there in the dark, choking on rage, trembling with the unfairness of it all, you make a silent promise. _"One day....I'll make you scream, Uncle."_
This game has the best storyline than any other game ever made, If you imagine yourself walking in chicago on a rainy night, this music would fit excactly into that moment. Perfect Dark has one of the best soundtracks in an FPS period.
This was always my favourite theme, and level to hang out in and take in the atmosphere. I used to break into the empty strip club (you have to get the guard inside to open the doors) and just stay there listening to the rain and this tune. It was so noir!
This is my favorite tune in the game! :) I love Perfect Dark! And I noticed the playlist it says best video game music of the 2000's.... What?! this is the best video game music ever MADE!
The time I'd spend on this level and air-force one as a kid with cheat codes and unlimited ammo trying to kill the robot and trent easton with every gun possible... I knew it was hopeless but I liked making 10 mines explode on them while shooting endlessly with the laptop gun.
GOOD times with this game when I was young, I remember i had to ask my dad to beat this level and some others for me...mostly becuz i was scared for my life when i heard the floating sentry gun shooting at me yelling STOP... I will never forget this game... My first FPS EVAR.
i remember me and my lil' sister playing this game together back in the day . . . the best memories. golden eye, mario go kart, diddy kong racing, and perfect dark . . . made me close with my sisters.
I remeber the first time i encountered the guard robot, it shot at me, and i put two magazines worth of ammo into it and didn't scratch it. Major "oh crud" moment 😂
Soundtrack to walking in the rain, sitting watching the rain from a nice warm spot. Especially hits hard in a city / busy suburban area where neon lights can be seen. Crazy how music can have that effect 🤯
So nostalgic... It reminds you of all the fond memories you have gotten from this game... Perfect dark --> COD!! This will be my favorite shooter game ever.
Well the games that were out during my time were a piece of shit... Hell's yeah it's outdated, I don't play or listen to anything new. I probably know more about 70's and 80's music, cars, games, and much more than the people that actually lived it. And for your information, playing this game with my dad was the only fun thing I did with him before he committed suicide. So thank you for making me make that clear
Hey man I'm really sorry to hear about your dad bro! I'm glad you can at least appreciate a good game man and if you were having fun with the game, hey that's all that matters! Fuck Justin Osborne and his ignorant ass comments, who cares how old you were or when the game came out, at least you were having fun and so sorry to hear about your dad bro may he rest in peace.
I can see myself now...sitting in a low lit room, grin on my face. I turn every street corner with caution, placing the crosshair on heads. Keeping it quiet and cool. Bypassing the security bot and showing mercy to the detectives that surrender. When suddenly Mom yells that dinner is ready. So I pause and walk out of the room feeling like a spy. I miss those days....:(
Agreed. It has a peaceful vibe to it that makes it okay, like, these people just have to die for the good of humanity. Sure it's sad, but no time for hissy-fittin' around.
I regreet not hearing this earlier.....I had Perfect Dark in my Nintendo 64 Libary.....Never finnished the 2nd or 3rd level. Booted up 1964 emulator ( which lets you play with keyboard and mouse ) Got to this level turned up audio to max xD
Soon as it plays, hands on my face, oh, the nostalgia. I still have the Official Players Guide and the Prima Secrets, Walkthrough Guide. I have to get an N64 again or get this on Xbox Live. Played this a lot with my childhood friend that I haven't seen in years. I miss those days.
And the original Joanna was the best in my view. She was supposed to look boyish because her name comes from the French Jeanne D'Arc, (Joan of Arc) who used to wear mens clothes and armor. I spit on the stupid Ginger spice striped hair effect of Perfect Dark Zero. Its a shame that even in the redone original for Xbox they didn't keep her original look.
"STOP WHERE YOU ARE!" When I heard that with the following laser fire as a kid, it gave me nightmares. Also, the definite best line of this game is from "Air Base - Espionage" when one of the bodyguards by the escalators says "You shouldn't have come here girl!"
This is probably the best song on the whole soundtrack, which is a fat compliment, and when I listen to it now, I'm actually more excited for the new Perfect Dark game than I even got during the preview. Here's hoping they can capture the same mysterious, dark, retro energy as the first.
Everytime I'm walking outside and it's raining, this music plays in my head.
@@alternateization damn thats facts no cap fr fr
Stop wher you are!
@@alternateization You wouldn't understand
Even never doing this myself, I completely get it. Beautiful
I use this song for sleeping
Grant Kirkhope is a great composer. The music matches the rainy and stormy atmosphere in the Chicago level very well.
While still including one of the main melodic themes for the game!
as well as Graeme Norgate
possibly the greatest FPS ever made
agreed
Agreed as well
This and the Timesplitters trilogy.
not possibly it just is though would be nice if we could fix the frame issues....
just for the laptopgun itself

This song is great on its own, but accompanied with Chicago 2023's visuals throughout the level, it's breathtaking. Cyberpunk art at its best.
fuck we are in 2023 an still no flying police cars ! XD
2023 heck yeah
@goukimaster353 oh they have the tech since 1954, its just not release to the public yet for obvious macro economic and socio economic greed and power

This brings tears of joy. N64 & GameCube's era were the best for me.
As much as I love the GameCube it just had something missing for me. RARE.
Super Nintendo and N64 were best for me, I think, although Nintendo GameCube had some really nice entries, too.
It reminds me of Blade Runner, this mission has that Neo-Noir feel.

Everything else is just perfect and no modern game gets close to it
weapon felling and unikness stuff like the laptop gun, or the selfdestruct gun
Animation level design
Even decent destruction
@@meki___6881 PD was ported to PC with KB and Mouse controls fully integrated if you care to look into it.
Perfect Dark... my first "first person shooter game" that changed my life and makes me say "I LIKE SHOOTER GAMES" Respect for this game.
This level was very reminiscent of Blade Runner.
it kinda sucks cause i was so young when i played this game, i didn't realize the N64 games, very much including Perfect Dark, had truly quality campaigns. Now i look back and compare them with the campaigns coming out today, and there is LITERALLY no comparison.
I MISS YOU N64 DAYS! COME BACK TO US!!
STOP WHERE YOU ARE! *cue endless stream of bullets*
locks on with the cmp-150 and shoots all bullets out from the ammo clip in anger.

Loved this era of Rare.

OH MY GOD!
WHAT THE....
There's some one here!
STOP WHERE YOU ARE!
LOOK OUT SHE'S GOT A GUN!
Please! Dont shoot me
This is what ALL modern video games has forgotten about...
A really good soundtrack...
Man I loved the music during the Chicago stealth mission!!!!
Especially this genre. I mean we have Shovel Knight and whatnot that are great. Nothing like this in FPS, imaging hearing this today in such a game.
@@ngc6603 Yeah, aside from Doom and Doom Eternal.
My favourite track of the game. It really transmits the cyberpunk atmosphere.
This game had a style of its own. I played GoldenEye as a kid, but never knew about this game until years later. Best FPS multiplayer of all time!
This is my favorite tune in the game! :) I love Perfect Dark! And I noticed the playlist it says best video game music of the 2000's.... What?! this is the best video game music ever MADE!
Getting the chills!! By far one of the best tunes ever made.
It's raining outside... and I know exactly what song I want to listen to.
I really hope the new Perfect Dark game has an epic soundtrack as this.
yeah but right now there's no any news of it.
@@Buditokid everyone quit the project which is so disappointing considering how good it was supposed to be
What was it called?
They gotta get Grant Kirkhope working on it
it will be woke garbage, dont get your hopes up.
The time I'd spend on this level and air-force one as a kid with cheat codes and unlimited ammo trying to kill the robot and trent easton with every gun possible... I knew it was hopeless but I liked making 10 mines explode on them while shooting endlessly with the laptop gun.
sounds like a blast of a time lol....
I did the same thing bro lol
I dont knew Blade Runner , until i watch it: It is Perfect Dark world!
robot voice: stop. where. you. are.
Ty micro
for returning this saga.
We fans are very grateful ^_^
I always loved this song. Very relaxing. One of the first games I ever purchased.
*Robot Voice*
"STOP WHERE YOU ARE!!"
*Fires Falcon 2 at the robot*
"ALERT! I AM BEING ATTACKED!"
LOLZ

Same brother
2:38 this change is amazing !
Just the best of the best 😎
i remember me and my lil' sister playing this game together back in the day . . . the best memories. golden eye, mario go kart, diddy kong racing, and perfect dark . . . made me close with my sisters.
I got rare replay a few days ago and I'm loving this game, as someone that is new to retro games this is simply amazing.
It has multiplayer, too
This song reminds me my childhood and when it starts to rain of course.
The whistle at 1:14 is the best part.
It's easy to understand the somber tone of this track since I was born and raised in Chicago. The city is def a character builder.
Man.. This brings me back I loved these days..
This track is laser man!
Definitely my favourite track of the game.
I remeber the first time i encountered the guard robot, it shot at me, and i put two magazines worth of ammo into it and didn't scratch it. Major "oh crud" moment 😂
Brings back memories? How could it? I still play this!
STILL THE BEST SONG
Soundtrack to walking in the rain, sitting watching the rain from a nice warm spot. Especially hits hard in a city / busy suburban area where neon lights can be seen. Crazy how music can have that effect 🤯
Brings back great memory's thank you so much for uploading this.
@iKnops - Agreed, That floating cop fired so much bullets. LOL. Thanks for the upload btw.
Oh the Nostalgia.. I love this game on both n64 and the remake on xbox360 and this is my favorite song.
ahhh love listening to this, so relaxing, great tune :D
Classic song. Though I never experienced much of this. I was too busy speed running. But now I can take a seat and enjoy this music.
They need to make Perfect dark in to awesome movie! Thumbs up if you agree.
This is one of my top PD songs. It has so much emotion.
Woow.... Perfect Dark is my favorite Game when i was a child :D
I just did my laundry to this.
So nostalgic... It reminds you of all the fond memories you have gotten from this game... Perfect dark --> COD!!
This will be my favorite shooter game ever.
Best FPS I've ever played. Spent HOURS on this game. My friend's brother unlocked ALL of the cheats and then gave it to me. :P
I still listen to this when out walking on a rainy day.
I never liked that robot anyway...
he's too fast to hit unless you target it with the cmp-150 2nd function tracking after pointing at it.
Damn 10 years just flew by i remember i was 8 when i first played this game,still a favorite
WHO THE?!

Help! She's got a gun!
Whyy... Mee.....
PERFECT DARK IS COMING BACK
Ahh rareware, the video game comoany with the consistently greatest music in video game history
I'm only 13 and I get nostalgia from my childhood when I used to play Perfect Dark with my dad so many years ago :)
The game is much older than 13 years. The game was already outdated before you were born. You know nothing about this game or its time period.
Well the games that were out during my time were a piece of shit... Hell's yeah it's outdated, I don't play or listen to anything new. I probably know more about 70's and 80's music, cars, games, and much more than the people that actually lived it.

When I play this scenario, I always stay in an empty place just to listen to this beautiful song.
This song + rainymood = The Perfect Feeling!
Just take me back
I also love this song too
Its my favorite song in the Game.
A lot of memories with the year 2000 and this game
I love this game and I play it all the time on xbox and n64 but the lag on n64
Also, requesting an extended version please! Definitely in my top tracks for this game.
Neotokyo from Timesplitters 2 is also amazing and similar vibe.
no problem, thanks for taking the time to listen to it!
1:57 best part to me

i love this soundtrack ... remembers me to the old good times ... *sigh*
So much more could have been done with the Chicago level - shops and malls to explore would have been amazing
Meh it makes sense to me. The area this mission was set in seemed like an industrial back alley area
the N64 can only do so much.. now if this was on the GC that would've been another story
It really fits in a rainy-day ambience...
I regreet not hearing this earlier.....I had Perfect Dark in my Nintendo 64 Libary.....Never finnished the 2nd or 3rd level. Booted up 1964 emulator ( which lets you play with keyboard and mouse ) Got to this level turned up audio to max xD
Soon as it plays, hands on my face, oh, the nostalgia. I still have the Official Players Guide and the Prima Secrets, Walkthrough Guide. I have to get an N64 again or get this on Xbox Live. Played this a lot with my childhood friend that I haven't seen in years. I miss those days.
If I ever go to Chicago one day, this better be playing.
And the original Joanna was the best in my view. She was supposed to look boyish because her name comes from the French Jeanne D'Arc, (Joan of Arc) who used to wear mens clothes and armor. I spit on the stupid Ginger spice striped hair effect of Perfect Dark Zero. Its a shame that even in the redone original for Xbox they didn't keep her original look.
probably my faovrite theme in a game of great music
@ninnypiggy This song is on my sleep mix. I LOVED th Perfect Dark soundtrack n I love this guy for adding it
Nostalgia!
2023, still the best videogame soundrack ever made for me
"STOP WHERE YOU ARE!" When I heard that with the following laser fire as a kid, it gave me nightmares.
Also, the definite best line of this game is from "Air Base - Espionage" when one of the bodyguards by the escalators says "You shouldn't have come here girl!"
Tfw you're sneaking through Chicago, Illinois
Especially in 2023; when the game takes place in. 😮
@@spcyakima1077They predicted the future! Flying robot cops just broke in my house with an alien named Elvis. 😵

Whenever TF that'll be released
This song has a bad ass drum beat !
Lovely music
This gives vibes of Elwood and his music "One fine Day"
I just discovered Eelke Kleijn - Rush, also has the same vibes
this soundtrack is correct for the Chicago level with the rain calms my mind.
