@@KionKamon Some of the games kinda forced you to use "cheats" cause of how hard they were. I just recently started playing Seeds of Evil again on the 64 and it literally took me 2.5 hrs to just finish Port of Adia cause 1.) I had to relearn the controls. 2.) I forgot how big the level really was. Lastly at one point I kept going around in a big circle so that kind of hindered my progress.
@@GuillaumeLeValiant Of course! I’m actually fairly active on TH-cam for someone with such a pitiful number of video uploads lol. All of the kind comments and support from you and others are really appreciated.
Darren Mitchell Music WOW! That's an incredible compliment especially coming from the man himself! I'm really happy that you like it Darren, thank you! I grew up listening to your music. I used to pause the game and listen to each song from the menu screen. It's been a huge inspiration for me musically.
+MH Symphonies You're a gifted musician! This is my favorite remake ever! I have always wanted someone to remake Brinstar Overgrown with Vegetation with the right direction. Each remake out there always removes the slap bass guitar which is always horrible. That was the best part musically. Could you remake that? I could die happy! LOL! 4:14 This is where the greatest part of this remake begins! IT IS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!
Thank you! I'd have to purchase a nice quality sampled electric bass first but I could probably make that happen. I'm glad you enjoy my take on this song!
MH Symphonies You would really do this for me personally? That would be awesome! If you ever get the chance with your busy schedule keep the original vibe but update the instruments and add some qualities of your own too. Thank You!
+ultima247 Same here. My dad and I used to play through Turok 1 and 2 all the time when I was little. He hasn't really played a game since though so sometimes I wonder if he thinks that Turok is the only game that exists lol
I consider the theme of port of Adia to be one of the best game songs ever made, it has a sense of urgency and professionalism about it, like imagining turok getting suited up, arming himself with his knife and bow and getting to action, employing stealth and lethality to dispatch his enemies both human and dinosaur alike. SHITS AMAZING.
I love to emotionally invest myself in pieces like these. I close my eyes and try to vicariously experience what Turok must've been going through when given the important and seemingly impossible tasks to fire the distress beacons, defend the energy totem, and arguably the most important: save the children. This is a great rendition MH Symphonies, keep it up!
Truly incredible. If you ever made this for the River of Souls, I could die a happy man. It's certainly made me long for a new Turok game with traditional roots. Thanks for this!
PNDKetchup Thank you! I will definitely create the River of Souls eventually. Just need to find the time to start making more music. I would also love to see a modern Turok game with more traditional roots. Unfortunately I don't think that will ever happen unless by some miracle the license for Turok winds up in the right hands. We can dream though right?
MH Symphonies There was a second Turok in the works before Propoganda were bought out by Disney. I found one of the concept artists' portfolio website and he was allowed to put his work up for people to see. It looked incredible. Such a shame it bit the dust before launch. I understand time is a pain these days, only if you ever find the time bud! Would love to hear it if you ever get round to it.
Yeah I've looked into the cancelled sequel. It really is a shame because it did look great. I was excited about the lack of space marines and the primitive tribes. But anyway, regardless of time being an obstacle I won't be stopped from eventually doing River of Souls.
The original fit the setting because of the feeling of tension. The beacons had to be lit and the children needed rescuing. The entrails have taken over the port and something must be done or else. I think you captured the same feeling, but made it more dramatic, almost like it raises morale. This is a pretty good piece on its own though.
+8menincostume Thanks! I think what I was going for when creating this was capturing the essence of the battle that was happening at the Port of Adia. Considering this is not something that would be featured in-game and not meant to be looped hundreds of times I definitely wanted to create a more dramatic listening experience as more of a testament to the original with my own aded flavor. As opposed to something that you could stick into the game and play along to for hours. I saw this as an opportunity to add some more instrumentation and highlight the feeling of the intensity of the war that Turok had to fight in. Nowadays with modern audio implementation technology, you would be able to have more subtle tension building music for those moments where the player traverses the level focused on the overall mission objective. Then write pieces of music (similar to my take on this song) specifically for highlighting context sensitive moments when the player enters combat or is doing something heroic. I think Darren Mitchell perfectly captured the best of both worlds in the original song, especially considering the technology at the time limited the amount of flexibility that a composer had for highlighting specific instances of gameplay.
I have been listening to every version of Port of Adia on YT for longer than this video has been online and only now i am hearing this version, seriously, WTF?? Bravo, right up there with Turok Orchestra suite actually done by a real orchestra :D
Never thought I would witness a remastered version this far in time. But I'm glad I was wrong. You did a good job on making it, too bad you didn't have a choir to go with it. But it is great nonetheless. Hats off!
Dude, Just come across this after watching a speedrun. I gotta say, I often click on an 'orchestrated' version of a loved game theme... and the result can be very varied. But this, this stands alone as a proper version man. I've been DJing and playing with production for over a decade, I love pretty much everything musical, especially the great video game soundtracks. While listening I was starting to imagine this version fitting in the excellent soundtrack for Headhunter by Richard Jacques. Then that breakdown happened with the snare and I was right back to Turok vibes... -(By the way, I would very much like to try sampling that snare to play around with while i'm learning if you wouldn't mind :D)- ...right before that sonically superb final crescendo. Massive kudos to you MH. This is a wonderful piece of work, thank you very much for creating and sharing it!
This is AMAZING! Loved this game as a kid & this was my favourite song from the game. I actually think this sounds better than the original. The fact that you don’t have more subscribers is criminal! Instant sub!
I have also always wanted to hear this track re orchestrated without the limitations of the 64 bit cartridge.. and this is great! Glad I finally found it
I think the Turok 2 soundtrack is a great place for this kind of reorchestration. River of Souls, Primagen's Lightship, they are all great tracks that already have fantastic scores. I'd totally love to hear more!
Agreed! Turok 2 had a great and very underrated soundtrack. One that I've been listening to since I was about 8 or 9 years old when I first got my hands on the game. The River of Souls and the Primagen's Lightship are actually two of the top Turok 2 songs that I plan on re-orchestrating at some point. I'd like to cover at least one or two songs from other franchises first though.
Oscar Quintanilla Thank you! I'm very flattered that you think my work is worthy of more subscribers! My channel is still pretty new, but lately it has received subscribers and positive feedback on a fairly consistent basis. I'm happy to see that people are enjoying my work.
Thank you so much for this, the arrangement is blessed by your orchestration. Sounds fantastic. Wish I could've shown my Dad. Need to find more of those damn Life Force triangles...
Thanks so much! My dad and I used to play Turok all the time. He would help me navigate the levels and find important items and I would fight the bosses
Quality3rr0r Nice! I wouldn't be opposed to that. The song wouldn't loop like the original because I chose to give it an ending but it would still be cool. I'd love to see some pictures or vids if you have any!
MH Symphonies is this a fanmade remake or official? because the world NEEDS a remastered Turok 2. as long as they don't lessen the blood and gore like they did with the reboot.
Its going to be a fanmade remake of the game, though its going to be under a new name, its still going to be the same. I'm looking for a little team, since i've been workinh alone most of the time, as for pictures and stuff, i could show you the first part of Port Of Adia, but i dont think its that good yet. If you know good drawers, modelers, scripters, please give me a reference, for i could do all of it alone, but it just takes up so much time.
Quality3rr0r don't know anyone who could help sadly but you could visit colleges that offer video game designer courses and advertise your idea there. hopefully someone with a brain will want the game remade.
Quality3rr0r Don't worry I understand. Unfinished work should never be judged harshly. I would appreciate it even in its unfinished state. Although I do know of a few artists with game dev experience, unfortunately none of them really have much free time on their hands. I would say try doing what SonofAlma suggested and visit some colleges with game design or art and animation programs and see if you can find a few like-minded individuals who would be willing to help. Also, I'm sure there are plenty of online forums for people who do/aspire to be artists and animators for games, movies, or shows. Try joining some and see if anyone would be interested in volunteering to help. Most people would want pay but maybe you can find someone who's more of a talented hobbyist, or someone who's looking to build a portfolio. Good luck! I hope you can find the right people
Happy that you used the PC version of the song as the basis. It makes Turok come off as a heroic person who's making sure the children will be safe from the dinosoids, rather than the N64's feeling of slaughter everywhere.
Yeah the PC version just made more sense to model my version after. It just sounds better when performed by orchestral instruments. And especially for the violins. Their part n the N64 version isn't quite out of their range but some of the lower notes do come pretty close and at that point they aren't able to really shine. I grew up with the N64 version but it just wasn't realistic enough for what I was trying to do.
This is actually a good remastered version, unlike many who actually have remastered versions of games that have been released with crappy remastered soundtracks. its got feeling and soul. Nice!
So many people forget the end. YOU did it 2.5 times... and it only made a long-time fan MORE HAPPY. :) Nice job. Well Done. Keep up the good work... get nerdier :D (as if you could :hug:)
+Charles Keranen Thanks man! I was very much looking forward to orchestrating the end of this song when I started working on it. I wasn't sure at the time how I was going to do it but I knew I wanted to use the original as a foundation and just work from there. I also knew that I wanted it to be a bit longer to allow for more build up and eventually come to a satisfying close. I wanted the song as a whole to be very true to the original but there was also plenty of room to add my own flavor to it.
I'm looking to use this track in the very near future for a D&D campaign. Assuming diplomacy and negotiations fall through, they will have to contend with a hobgoblin warchief and his highly organized and disciplined fighting unit. The music seems to build up suspense as harsh gutteral commands are barked out as they try to encircle/flank the party.
Nice! Sounds like a fun campaign. I hope the song adds a nice touch! If you look at the video description there’s a download link. Having a copy of the song might make playing/pausing a little more manageable for you
One game series I would like to make a soft reboot to is the “Turok” series. Make it an open-world FPS, with elements of action rpg. It would essentially be a direct sequel to “Turok 2: Seeds of Evil,” that completely ignores everything that came afterwards. It would emphasize exploration, finding secrets in every nook and cranny of the map, and it would also maintain the over-the-top violence its predecessors were known for. In other words, the infamous Cerebral Bore would be coming back. Basically it would do the “Oblivion” storyline justice, hinted at in Turok 2’s ending… with you either playing as Tal’Set (Turok: Dinosaur Hunter’s main character) or Joshua Fireseed (Turok 2: Seeds of Evil’s main character), each with their own strengths, weaknesses, weapons, and unique story contributions. It would be titled “Turok: Sons of Stone”… a nod to the 1956 Dell Comics, on which the whole concept originated.
I would love for a good developer to take on a project like that. One that isn’t afraid to really do the Turok franchise justice. The lost land should be diverse with all sorts of different locations and creatures from different time periods/dimensions, including dinosaurs of course. Some 3rd person mounted dinosaurs would be awesome as well. Maybe with the option to add some customizable weapons to them.
@@mhsymphonies You’d also return to familiar stages. Joshua would return to the city of Araissi, with a reprise of the “River of Souls” theme playing, for example. The Totem would be damaged and in disrepair, but the river of souls would no longer be poisonous. Tal’Set would also fight a resurrected Campaigner, who would be a recurring boss. The last fight you’d be stripped of your weapons and be forced to take him on with your trusty tomahawk axe.
Hello! @@mhsymphonies, first of Im sorry for my late reply, i dont check my e-mails and things of the sort often, (belive or not i got my first "social media account" facebook account created yesterday, lol, I got a question, did you used a software or you hired those musical people|? it sounds very vivid like a live performing act.
This was created with sampled software instruments. So far everything that I create is done with software but I would love to hear something that I've written performed by a live orchestra someday. I need to get back to creating more music in general before I can start talking like that though lol. But anyway that's a huge compliment! I'm always aiming for as much realism as possible in my music so I'm glad this sounds convincing to you. The stuff I've been working on lately sounds even better by comparison. Unfortunately, I've just had a difficult time finishing anything over the past 2 years because of work and other things. So I haven't been able to put any of it out there for you all to listen to. I'm starting to come out of that rut though!
Once again Im sorry for my late reply-, Im working in some very silly cartoons and I will need some sound, draw and I wiil request some help from you, NOTE Its only a project nothing is safe, and loads of work little 2 minutes strips, As I said nothing is clear , lets see , I dont work for any big dogs in the biz, Your help (if everything comes out) will be vital.
Turok 2 Soundtrack its CRIMINALLY underrated!
Oh yeah it is!
Turok games were underrated in general.
You got that right!! Underrated is an understatement.
fuck halo i want turok back
yes
+vaannebilim Yea man this is the real deal. Dinosaurs were meant for Humans not Electronic helmets for humans. Although any work in modern time.
www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-03-29-turok-1-and-2-remastered-coming-to-xbox-one
woah let's not say fuck halo
ok fuck how long we are going to wait for a turok remake or new game
"BEWAREOBLIVIONISATHAND"
back when games had cheat codes and no achievement/trophy BS.....this is the master code for Seeds of Evil...
Cheater lol me too
Going thru the switch version. Just found out about yesterday 😃
Neo Arcane best way to play those old games was to cheat the heck out of them lol I still do that
@@KionKamon Some of the games kinda forced you to use "cheats" cause of how hard they were.

I remembered when Turok saved those trapped children they would say "Thank you TUROK!" man what a freaking hero
Love you Man!
This song perfectly narrates the telling of a siege and a desperate counter offensive.
Remember getting the shotgun the first time and how satisfying it sounded?
*Turok 2 Shotgun noises*
and the heads exploding ^^
This dudes talking about shotguns like the CEREBRAL BORE wasnt the greatest weapon lol
@@XeroFailGames Cerebral Bore is great the first few times, but it gets old. Blowing a hole clean through a Purlin with a shotgun? Eternal.
Adon saying "Shot Gun" was pure bliss
Firestorm cannon FTW
Best track in the game. I remember hearing the little girl " save me Turok" very emotional. Made me feel like a true hero!
This.
One of the greatest pieces of video game music ever made, next to the Shadowman soundtrack. Acclaim really knew how to make em back then.
Perfect, this's simple, 50 years later and will continue incredible
Thanks!
This song got me so pumped when playing that first Turok 2 level. This song has this sense of urgency but also sounding heroic. Love it man, good job.
same, then got stuck for a long time with the hidden wall lol
"Sense of urgency" is spot on!
This is easily one of the best video game songs I’ve ever heard in 30 years of gaming, across all platforms. Good job on your take of it!
Matt XAnder strong words there my son
2020 I agreed
I might be one of the best, just, pieces of music in general. It's so good.

i love shadow man theme too, outstanding, check it
Damn, I remember my grandmother bought me this game for Christmas, so nostalgic.

Wait, acclaim went bankrupt, so is the prospect of a remake up for grabs, or would someone still have to talk to the old employees?
As an expert of the N64 game, this is a beautiful remix of the first level theme, one of my favorites in the game. Always makes your adrenaline pump.

I stil come back and listen to this song, so epic
This series needs to come back ASAP
Seriously waiting for a remake of this game, these games from the 90s w/ everything included were way ahead of their times

I would say try doing what SonofAlma suggested and visit some colleges with game design or art and animation programs and see if you can find a few like-minded individuals who would be willing to help. Also, I'm sure there are plenty of online forums for people who do/aspire to be artists and animators for games, movies, or shows. Try joining some and see if anyone would be interested in volunteering to help. Most people would want pay but maybe you can find someone who's more of a talented hobbyist, or someone who's looking to build a portfolio.
Good luck! I hope you can find the right people
Just WOW! I waiting for turok 2 for ps5 with your version of musics of the game.
One of best songs ever written to a sequel that delivered like a truck!!!
wow, love that you did this! So great!
Thanks!
Happy that you used the PC version of the song as the basis. It makes Turok come off as a heroic person who's making sure the children will be safe from the dinosoids, rather than the N64's feeling of slaughter everywhere.
Yeah the PC version just made more sense to model my version after. It just sounds better when performed by orchestral instruments. And especially for the violins. Their part n the N64 version isn't quite out of their range but some of the lower notes do come pretty close and at that point they aren't able to really shine. I grew up with the N64 version but it just wasn't realistic enough for what I was trying to do.
If you ever made this for Turok 2 - River of Souls!
This is actually a good remastered version, unlike many who actually have remastered versions of games that have been released with crappy remastered soundtracks. its got feeling and soul. Nice!
Thanks a lot! I'm glad you like it.
Sounds so good
Thanks!
OMG THIS IS ABSOLUTLY FANTASTIC!!!!!!!
Thanks!
Perfect sound! Top job.
That's a really outstanding work !! Hope sincerely you'll continue to release other tracks from this soundtack and many others
Thanks! I will definitely do more Turok songs. I think That'll be my next orchestration.
good work, i like the original and also your version very much
Thank you!
Thank you Turok 👧🏻
So many people forget the end. YOU did it 2.5 times... and it only made a long-time fan MORE HAPPY. :) Nice job. Well Done. Keep up the good work... get nerdier :D (as if you could :hug:)
+Charles Keranen Thanks man! I was very much looking forward to orchestrating the end of this song when I started working on it. I wasn't sure at the time how I was going to do it but I knew I wanted to use the original as a foundation and just work from there. I also knew that I wanted it to be a bit longer to allow for more build up and eventually come to a satisfying close. I wanted the song as a whole to be very true to the original but there was also plenty of room to add my own flavor to it.
This is awesome!
Thanks!
I'm looking to use this track in the very near future for a D&D campaign. Assuming diplomacy and negotiations fall through, they will have to contend with a hobgoblin warchief and his highly organized and disciplined fighting unit. The music seems to build up suspense as harsh gutteral commands are barked out as they try to encircle/flank the party.
Nice! Sounds like a fun campaign. I hope the song adds a nice touch! If you look at the video description there’s a download link. Having a copy of the song might make playing/pausing a little more manageable for you
One game series I would like to make a soft reboot to is the “Turok” series. Make it an open-world FPS, with elements of action rpg.
It would essentially be a direct sequel to “Turok 2: Seeds of Evil,” that completely ignores everything that came afterwards.
It would emphasize exploration, finding secrets in every nook and cranny of the map, and it would also maintain the over-the-top violence its predecessors were known for. In other words, the infamous Cerebral Bore would be coming back.
Basically it would do the “Oblivion” storyline justice, hinted at in Turok 2’s ending… with you either playing as Tal’Set (Turok: Dinosaur Hunter’s main character) or Joshua Fireseed (Turok 2: Seeds of Evil’s main character), each with their own strengths, weaknesses, weapons, and unique story contributions.
It would be titled “Turok: Sons of Stone”… a nod to the 1956 Dell Comics, on which the whole concept originated.
I would love for a good developer to take on a project like that. One that isn’t afraid to really do the Turok franchise justice. The lost land should be diverse with all sorts of different locations and creatures from different time periods/dimensions, including dinosaurs of course. Some 3rd person mounted dinosaurs would be awesome as well. Maybe with the option to add some customizable weapons to them.

You’d also return to familiar stages.
Joshua would return to the city of Araissi, with a reprise of the “River of Souls” theme playing, for example. The Totem would be damaged and in disrepair, but the river of souls would no longer be poisonous.
Tal’Set would also fight a resurrected Campaigner, who would be a recurring boss. The last fight you’d be stripped of your weapons and be forced to take him on with your trusty tomahawk axe.
Astonishing texture you added to this. Well done!
napukapu Thanks!
Very good work indeed
Terrific work! I loved it!!
Thanks!
i listen to this since you uploaded it. glad you still get credit for this awesome remix :)
That's awesome! I'm glad you still like it after all this time :)
Thank you man for your job, this is amazing.
Thanks!
MH Symphonies ❤️
I loved the original N64 OST but this fantastic orchestrated version really ROCKS!
Thanks! I'm glad you like it. I grew up on the original soundtrack and would listen to it in the start menu playlist constantly as a kid.
Hello! @@mhsymphonies, first of Im sorry for my late reply, i dont check my e-mails and things of the sort often, (belive or not i got my first "social media account" facebook account created yesterday, lol, I got a question, did you used a software or you hired those musical people|? it sounds very vivid like a live performing act.
This was created with sampled software instruments. So far everything that I create is done with software but I would love to hear something that I've written performed by a live orchestra someday. I need to get back to creating more music in general before I can start talking like that though lol. But anyway that's a huge compliment! I'm always aiming for as much realism as possible in my music so I'm glad this sounds convincing to you. The stuff I've been working on lately sounds even better by comparison. Unfortunately, I've just had a difficult time finishing anything over the past 2 years because of work and other things. So I haven't been able to put any of it out there for you all to listen to. I'm starting to come out of that rut though!
Once again Im sorry for my late reply-, Im working in some very silly cartoons and I will need some sound, draw and I wiil request some help from you, NOTE Its only a project nothing is safe, and loads of work little 2 minutes strips, As I said nothing is clear , lets see , I dont work for any big dogs in the biz, Your help (if everything comes out) will be vital.
Changed my life
That's good I'm glad. And thank you for taking the time to reply it shows you care about your fans which is nice :)
Of course! I try to respond to every message that I'm notified about. Unless it's in another language... I'm not multilingual unfortunately lol
MH Symphonies sadly neither am I only know French besides English :p
That's more than me!
Excelent job!
