I remember the sounds of the snow crunching beneath my Warhawk as I slowly trekked across the winter wonderland, mostly flat as far as the eye could see. I remember how serene it was. How calm, how peaceful. I forgot that I was supposed to be searching for enemies. I forgot I was a warrior. For an instant, I existed in a state of pure wonder. The icy peaks of mountains began to form before me. I knew my Warhawk wasn't going to be able to take the inclines well. I decided to hike across them rather than up. To my surprise, I was graced with a beautiful view. A valley within the mountain range. It was beautiful beyond imagination. The star burning over the horizon, painting the land in glass. And I stood there...alone...and complete.

From all my years of gaming, the original Mechwarrior 2 soundtrack stands as the one game with the best soundtrack of all time... and yet somehow you managed to improve on it. Well done.
I'd like to add Total Annihilation's CD soundtrack to that as well. Epic as well, but in a different style than MW2's, of course. I still have my TA and MW2 original CD's stashed somewhere at home hah.
Marcus Alt I was actually listening to this song when I was playing MWO. Flea-19 8 MGs HPG All my team mates were dead except me and a Roughneck I shot down 9 Heavy/assault mechs and ran out of ammo by the end. Song will always remind me of that match.

I'll admit this took a bit to grow on me. The original is one of my favorite video game tracks and I'm kind of a traditionalist, but after giving this a second listen... It's pretty freaking good. Well done man.
Mechwarrior Online is pretty good. None of the respawn/arms race crap that happened in all the other titles. You pick your weight class and play and it's useful in that sense. Scouts can be scouts. Assaults can be assaults. Slow, stick out like a sore thumb...big targets. But they melt faces. Give it a try. It's free.
Awesome awesome! Please keep doing more! Though I have one little thing. Please do 1 song at a time. The first two medleys you did were awesome but I just wish each track had it's own time to shine, since every track is epic!
You know I as much as I love Mechwarrior I began to notice more and more how something like this world would never happen. For many reasons like the K.I.S.S. principal for starters. But it is fun to dream.
The first 0:00-1:20 of this track reminds me of EVE. If you were to make a modern BattleTech movie, which era would you place it in, and who would be the main antagonists? I think I would place mine in the Dark Age era, and make the main antagonists be the rebuilt _Society_ faction; "The evil ex-Clan super-scientists are back, and this time they're freaking pissed. They're going to be taking it out on the remnants of the Clans and Inner Sphere alike."
I really want to see the Clan Invasion, especially the Battle of Tukayyid, but that would sort of require a some sort of overview prequel showing the Clans and IS first
Just pull a Star Wars, with a short exposition bit at the beginning, and then starting the actual movie in the middle of the action. Meanwhile, a separate studio (in constant communication with the first) could be in charge of a Star League-era film, showing the Amaris Coup and the Exodus. The FedCom Civil War and Succession Wars are also good eras.
You need to start off with a smaller hook So do a Crescent Hawks movie Like, the Refusal war would be cool and all but it's a lot to learn at once. Crescent Hawks keeps the action to one planet, you need maybe a maximum of 20 Mechs, and it's got a manageable cast whilst having lots to hook into more ambitious movies if it's successful. If it really takes off we have the next Marvel Cinematic Universe
Hey Tim, you're from Perth, Australia as well? Glad to hear some great stuff coming from my home city :). Just a q about your Á new dawn (cover edition)' album, it contains remakes of music from the Mechwarrior 2 OST, such as umber wall and Arkham bridge etc, but where are the Mech theme songs? such as this one and Timberwolf?
Lovely! I listen to the original MechWarrior 2 soundtrack on my way back and forth to work. Nice remake! :) Loving it. Now I just wish they could make a remake of the game itself, capturing that atmosphere. And no, I don't want realistic lasers like in the later games, I like having to lead my opponents when I aim, much more fun! :)
+GreenPaladin I... don't even know what that one is. The Fafnir doesn't have back-canted legs, or elbows... Might be a custom design. Or maybe one of the litany of TRO:3145 stuff I haven't properly memorized yet.
I think on the DeviantArt post it said the one in the back is a Sagittarius. The one in the front has a name that I couldn't find in any of the BattleTech websites, so it probably is an original.
Thanks a lot for making this. Will you be remaking the entire MW2 soundtrack in the future? I'm surprised you named it after the weakest 'mech in MW2 as well.
aye, but who can name the mechs? ill give you a hint. one is iconic to the discovery of a clan mech, the other was featured in the new mechwarrior remake trailer ^.^ the first picture that is
the one mech is the warhammer 1st pic their is also a thantos snd pic (think i spelt it right) mad cat mk2 in the third pic can't remember the names of the other mechs
I feel like a simple remake wouldn't be enough for MW2... A reimagining could be neat... Honestly MW2 was a bit short, desipte how Mazing it was. MW3 would be really dang neat though.... Longer campaign, and the challenege of the pirates moon!
Classic music that should be applied to a Mechwarrior game: "Mechwarrior" (NEW) new visuals, sdfx but keeping the original soundtrack & basic story line. More story, more missions...too cool.

the second picture is a a Concussion 100 ton assault mech and Sagittaire 95 tonner also its not Warhammer like, it is a Warhammer the third is actually a Mad Cat mkIV and Vulture mkIV close but not correct and in the last picture it is a Sagittaire and falconer, so if you don't count the Warhammer since you said Warhammer like, you were successfully able to guess 2.

This song is fantastic.
"Steel Tranquility" was my favorite MW2 song, and this remake is even better. Though i wonder it isn't using the same name.
This takes me back...
This is ... bloody cool ... that simple.
This was my favorite track on Mech2 and you just made it even more incredible. On TOP of that... this artwork is utterly amazing.
Your renditions of the mechwarrior soundtracks improve on the originals. You are very talented.
How tf do you have less than 10k subs after all this time 😢.
Sooo loving these MW2 mixes, good sir. Fantastic job, absolutely wonderful

+Jacob Hodgen Nah, gotta be a Mad Dog.
Nostalgia habits die hard.
true, true, I used to play Vulture often, but then I switched to raven and when I joined MWO I found the Hunchback IIC and the Vindicator
I remember this classic. its been a while
I've been really loving your remakes. I mainly started on MW4 but this older generation of electronic music, revamped, I def dig.
I'll admit this took a bit to grow on me. The original is one of my favorite video game tracks and I'm kind of a traditionalist, but after giving this a second listen... It's pretty freaking good. Well done man.
I'm listening to this and reading Warrior: En Garde for the first time. Good on yah.
Ha! The first Picture has been my desktop wallpaper for years now!
Now this is fucking amazing... And I thought the original soundtrack was amazing. XD
3 months later and I still believe this.
Two years later you're not wrong!
4 years later you're correct
Six years later you're still correct
I really wish these were on Spotify so I could put them in my playlists
SUBBED! Thank you for bringing back the good MW memories... Now to wait for someone to make a new MW game that is worthy of the legacy.

I did, its not Battletech. As i said before, i'll wait for someone to make a new MW game that is worthy of the legacy.
Nothing but Battletech is Battletech. None of the games even came close. So your point it moot.
Oh put a sock on it white knight.
Agreed!
Fafnir, My Favorate Mech ever Built, Guess Classics never die.
Faffy isn't a classic, though.But that doesn't mean it isn't good.
Riley Chance Doesn't look like a Fafnir... Plus I think the Fafnir doesn't use missile weaponry.
Miami Storm Column Yeah, the stock Fafnir doesn't have missiles.
that is a Concussion not a fafnir.
I love the build up.
Awesome awesome! Please keep doing more! Though I have one little thing. Please do 1 song at a time. The first two medleys you did were awesome but I just wish each track had it's own time to shine, since every track is epic!

great remake of a classic

I swear.. if I remake MechWarrior 2 in some engine. I'm using this.
Thanks for this awesome music!

I wouldn't mind seeing a film on the first Succession War. That was one of the most destructive wars, yet the least discussed.
You need to start off with a smaller hook
So do a Crescent Hawks movie
Like, the Refusal war would be cool and all but it's a lot to learn at once.

PYRE LIGHT. YES. I RECOGNISE THAT ANYWHERE.
Does anyone know what that mech in the thumbnail is? Not the Sagittaire in thr background, but the mech in the foreground
Shimmering-Sword calls him Concussion, a 100 ton Assault Mech
great sounds-great video ty absolutely fucking great!

What's the mech in the foreground in the second picture? I really dig the design. Looks robust but mobile.
very high tech and ancient.
just like mechwarrior itself
I really enjoy your work! Please keep it up.
Well done!
Anyone know which mechs those are in the image?
This, sir, is damn fantastic work. At 2:00, you had me hooked.
Out of interest, why is this no longer available on your Soundcloud?
1:44
What's the mech on the left?
A Concussion.
what mechs are in the second pic?
this and MwLL Awesome!!!
This sounds like pumped up tune that would fit with Red Alert or CnC :) awsome tune
"M.A.S.C. Engaged"
What mech is that alpha firing at 2:00 ?
Pretty sure that's a Fafnir assault mech. Fitted with two Heavy Gauss Rifles, one in each of its side torsos.
A Concussion
Something about the first part of this Pyre Light remake always didn't sound right to me; it's like some of the notes are missing.
Did you know that in the mission briefing, if you look at the shiny gold elevator in jade falcon, you can see your MechWarrior. Kinda creepy....
where is it?
Would you please release these tracks as a B-side to new dawn? They sound great!!!
is that a fafnir at 1:47?
+GreenPaladin I... don't even know what that one is. The Fafnir doesn't have back-canted legs, or elbows... Might be a custom design. Or maybe one of the litany of TRO:3145 stuff I haven't properly memorized yet.

third pic is Mad Cat Mk IV and Vulture MK IV from TRO 3145 Mercs. Close though.
Warhammer and Marauder, Fafnir and maybe a Raven? TimberWolf and Vulture aka MatCat and MadDog... Don't know the next two...
so um. has anyone tried playing on 1.5x speed? it's pretty epic too. :)
