@@poopymcsnoopy They both sound similar. I personally was in your boat until a few days ago. I listened to A Walk in the Woods and it made me want to play Truth and Rec, so I played it, and this is what played instead.
@@Spartan8999 Yeah, check Marty's channel. He stayed in the studio late one night and screamed gibberish into the microphone, composing much of the vocals that we recognize from the CE soundtrack.
One of the most atmospheric moments in the whole series is walking out of the tunnel during two betrayals, this song starts and the screen says "final run"
It’s a vaguely similar situation, but the tone is somehow the same despite the vast differences. In Truth and Reconciliation, you’re sneaking around the darkness picking off enemies from a distance. Then in Two Betrayals, you’re still sneaking around at night but you’re watching a large battle unfold, and the white snow reflects enough ambient light that it isn’t dark
Perfect for being out with the boys on a cold winter night. Big house, close to the woods. Every ones back from a hunting trip and ready to finish the night on a LAN party
I’m old. I played Halo CE on my Xbox I received for Christmas in 2001. The game is fantastic, but I think Marty’s music is what makes a Halo game a Halo game. It is visceral and makes you feel like a bada$$ when playing the game.
Facts. Marty's music gives Halo its soul. Without Marty, it just doesn't feel the same, it doesn't feel like Halo. I just played Infinite, and then gameplay is feels like old Halo, the storyline is great, but it still felt lacking. The soundtrack really isn't anything memorable and you don't even notice it most of the time. Back with Marty, the music added flavor and depth to every cutscene, every battle.
@@lordrevanz16 I think Infinite has a solid soundtrack but I see what you mean. It’s mainly the fact that most of the tracks in Infinite are randomly played so for example, I’ve never heard the Infinite version of under cover of night once. We like originals better because those linear games allowed each track to play during a specific section allowing a track to shine in the game whereas in Infinite, it’s a dice roll to see if you get a new track. In Infinite, I only remembered Escharum’s theme and the monitor’s theme.
Marty's music feels unique, I think. The music is supposed to have this ancient tone because of how old the Forerunners and Covenant are, but it's so ahead of its time no one managed to replicate it. I like the soundtracks after Halo 3, but they're so epic and so big, but don't have that uniqueness that makes Halo unique.
As the Chief moved onward through the artificial tunnel he is yet again met with the entrance he had previously fought his way through what felt like years ago but in reality was only a couple of days he is yet again trudging through ankle deep snow staring into the rings night sky when he reaches the precipice and sees a covenant encampment besieged from all sides by an unyielding foe the whining of plasma fire and staccato of automatics broken only by heavy explosives brought on by both sides and the screeching of banshees in the air...then he sees it the final platform to the last set of phase pulse generators the chief is yet again steeled in his resolve to see this mission through all thats left is a final run.
I never think of firing that first sniper shot, I never think of Chief walking out of the cave, I think of Daisy running home to find she’s no longer welcome and running to her death…
I love the halo soundtracks so very much, still brings such intense emotions to the surface with every track. I'm so glad I got to grow up with this series
th-cam.com/video/a-27bQ8UVks/w-d-xo.html This guy made a video with all of Halo's leitmotifs. It's 4 parts, so Perchance to Dream ought to be in there.
This brings old emotions back i cant describe its like im seeing not just a game but a whole timeline of my life flashing before me inner eye. all these emotions and memories feel so familiar and strange at the same time. it feels like it happened 1 week ago and not 20 years ago... its crazy to think that our senses like smelling, hearing, seeing, touching, tasting something familiar we havent felt for a long time can wake up memories that our brain just couldnt replay... this is when all the emotion are striking so hard and we know "this is reality right now"
thanks for the high quality upload! Always adore the original the most. heck, that whole soundtrack is so sublime and alien yanno? I feel like they use too much orchestral pieces nowadays in sci fi; which doesn't mean it's horrible, but the vibe with synthesizers is just limitless...
The baseline underneath the chord progression is just so fucking amazing. Then when you think about the storyline and what it all means it brings chills.
I was a junior in high school when CE came out. We had a pretty good crew of gamer / pro wrestling fans. Many a weekend we would pack into a basement and play split screen (after a little puff pass of course). When this music hit, it was as immersive of a gaming experience as I've ever had. That was my golden era of gaming.
Think the reason I didn’t remember this one too well is because there wasn’t any night missions in h3 and the decided to play it on friggin CROWS NEST of all missions
Love the original most of all the ce aniversary was really good tho and the halo 2 version is very suspensful halo 2 aniversary is pretty good to and 3 is different from all other versions but very hard to decide which is the most superior i love them all this song in general just very well created the perfect amount of rhythm erie tone and suspenseful beat combined to make an excellent song
There’s actually an ODST version you forgot. Plays during the Legendary Epilogue and can be heard on the track finale on the soundtrack. Also Infinite has one which came out after this video.
Under cover of the night makes me feel sad specially because you have to kill poor grunts in Truth and reconciliation and try to save them from the marines or from the flood in Two betrayals and is even sadder cause is almost impossible to save them... #Allgruntslivesmatters :'(
HALO CE: when you hit that snipe on truth and reconciliation and this tune comes on. I love it
nah that's the walk in the woods. this plays on the final run in two betrayals. I have made a video on it.
@@poopymcsnoopy Under Cover Of Night is first heard in truth and reconciliation dude
@@randomguy3233 I'm pretty sure that's walk in the woods

I will forever love the halo ce version no matters what.
“The end of the line”
The bass is just so much crunchier in that version
Halo CE i think is the best game out of the franchise
@@eclipse_434 And the percussion. God, it makes things 100x better.
I disliked this. Only to get it closer to 343 likes. Love the comment.
Marty o'donnell either you love his music or you never heard of his music.
No better way to describe his work.
real asf
Why is Halo CE music always the best?
Simplicity, probably. I often feel the remixes add too much to the piece.
@@chrischambers7601 I agree with you on how remixes just add too much instead of letting it be simple.
It’s simply the classic sound of halo
Gotta stick to the OG's
Ethereal atmosphere
Knowing that Marty himself provided the vocals for the original track makes it even better.
Holy shit, what?? He did?
@@Spartan8999 Yeah, check Marty's channel. He stayed in the studio late one night and screamed gibberish into the microphone, composing much of the vocals that we recognize from the CE soundtrack.
@@IronDeath79 it's safe to say that he puts his heart and soul into the soundtrack

That's one of my most vivid memories from playing CE as a kid for the first time.
That moment you realize you're the last one fighting, feeling the loneliness and the cold of the installation
my god i never realised just how intense the bass line is for this song. my headset vibrates with each twang on the string.
THAT'S THE BEST PART
Halo CE was great, but damn do I love the slow build up followed by the drummer going ape-shit on the climax in Halo 2!

There was a sniping mission? :v

Walking out during two betrayals, hearing this just start playing gives a unique feeling I cant really describe.
Yea.
this song is just amazing
"Final Run."

You are a gift that just keeps giving!
I love how halo 3's version is Perchance to Dream with Under Cover of Night combined. It's all so beautiful.
who would dare dislike such a masterpiece
4 people
The flood would
Those who will now be labeled as heretics
Where r them dislikes now XD
Probably Sony fanboys that never had a really good exclusive Shooter.
Where were you all these years ago, when we needed you the most
KEEP IN MIND: dream again is a mix of undercover of night AND PERCHANCE TO DREAM
I was repeating that mission only for the pleasure to hear this masterpiece over and over again.
A bit of Under The Cover of Night was in Roll Call from Halo 3
And Halo reborn
My Favorite song from CE

Also never reminds me of Cal-141 lining up the shot, then blocking the gravity hammer, screaming for the ODST to take the shot
Yep
what
@@mr2meows One of the Halo Legends episodes. Been over two decades since I last watched it so it took me a couple of seconds to realise.
@@SHADOWFRENZY92 wow, you watched it a decade before it came out? thats sick bro i want to learn how to do that
i prefer the CE and CEA version, but damn, the CEA version is so cool too.
the more prominent presence of Bass Guitar is what makes it I think!
I love the halo soundtracks so very much, still brings such intense emotions to the surface with every track. I'm so glad I got to grow up with this series
Please, please, be in Infinite (CE version, of course)
This NEEDS to be in Infinite
Wage also NEEDS to be in Infinite!
I’m sure it will be in infinite
I would rather it have infinites own spin to it rather than being a carbon copy.
@@imza5535 Same, I want something new with Infinite that is like the Bungie games, not just CE or 2 again.
Ay thanks for doing my suggestion!
i think "cloaked in darkness" is is now officially my favorite version of "under cover of the night" xd
PLEASE DO PERCHANCE TO DREAM ALL VERSIONS
Dream again was actually the halo 3 version of perchance to dream not undercover of night
@@jadenmajor yeah, I actually noticed, that's why an all versions of perchance to dream is a good idea
its kinda a halo 3 version of both. dream again does kinda sound like undercover of night

Guess what, a new version of Under Cover of Night is coming and it’s going to be in Halo Infinite.
and it's really good
And it sounds amazing
Halo 3s hits home :) The CE is amazing too :)
The baseline underneath the chord progression is just so fucking amazing. Then when you think about the storyline and what it all means it brings chills.
Please keep making these
I love this. Thank you. Makes me relive my childhood a bit

Dream Again is and always will be my favorite.
It’s a mix of one of halo ce pieces and halo 3s
@@Spartan-ng6sx I know good sir. It's absolutely amazing. I just love the Dream Again theme.
Halo ce: always playing truth and reconciliation with stealth even though it don't want me to
H5 was bad because it didn't have this
Definitely one of the most calming recurring songs in the series. Right below all the Walk songs.
6:08 Wow!! 🎶💘
The Halo: Combat Evolved version is FUCKING PHENOMENAL, there dude!!!
Have you heards halo Infinites one, it's really good and carrys on th legacy of under the cover of the night, it's called under cover
13:27 Perchance to Dream????
Sometimes you just need the cover of night and good aim.
"Big green guy"
Hey the beginning of Halo Reborn definitely fits here
Halo 3s version gives me so much nostalgia
he more you listen to it over time the more beautiful it becomes...immense...
REMAKES ARE PREEEETTTY GOIOOD
I loved the thumbnail art you used for it!
This will always give me a Nostalgia Attack
When you get swarmed by everything and you have low health
Halo infinite has a song called undercover. I’m glad this song has made a return in the sequel.
Halo 3's Roll call version is pretty cool too and has that awesome bass line from the OG almost intact
That one reminds me of finding some ancient structure in the jungle
Brother you made my day thanks for bringing back good old memories of halo ce again thank you
I was just started to hear and in mi mind comes “the end of the line”
I like the tropical halo 3 version makes me relaxed and happy BUT also ready for combat at any moment
I was *just* wondering when this would happen. Please, get out of my head. Or stay there. Whichever.
I love the CE and H3 versions the best
Feels like it represents the beauty of the night so listen at night
ALL OF THEM ARE SO GOOD
RISING UP!
Straight to the top!
Did my time, took my chances!
Your work is great, but it would be nice if there was some halo legends ost on some of your videos. Keep up the great work!
"Sir, They issued me a rifle not wings"
I think it was there Corps
You gotta update this video now, Under Cover of Night for Halo Infinite just leaked
I love Halo 2's version of it so much. It sounds like a good fit for a briefing music in Ace Combat
Think the reason I didn’t remember this one too well is because there wasn’t any night missions in h3 and the decided to play it on friggin CROWS NEST of all missions
Halo 2 I love it
NOTHING is better than the original (Halo CE)!! NOTHING!!!
*Yes...*

Dream Again I believe is the Perchance to Dream Halo 3 version
A brief snippet of this theme also plays in the ODST theme Finale
Never forget...the good times on halo...
You'll need to update this video now cause Halo Infinite came out... Under Cover
Honestly the anniversary version is actually good imo
There’s actually an ODST version you forgot. Plays during the Legendary Epilogue and can be heard on the track finale on the soundtrack.
Also Infinite has one which came out after this video.
Nostalgia.
I just realised that the magnum Chief wields in the CE: Anniversary is the Reach magnum.
Also It was produced from the heart, and not for money 💰
Amazing :)
Forgot the song that plays during Johnsons’s death. It’s the same thing but with isolated voices.
There is also this song in Halo ODST
Why is The Mombasa Suite not in here, that is a rendition of Under Cover of Night.
This and the comments are beautiful
halo CE: look at what they do to mimic a fraction of our power
Cuando recuerdas que la voz de la chica es la de Marty ya no vuelves a oirla de la misma forma.
Ahhh, justo vi el Inception de este tema y sí, escucharla es muy diferente ahora XD
Thank you Marty
In my opinion "In Amber Clad" from Halo 2 should be here as well
I love these Videos. If you are into these check out the other ones he has.
That one guy who disliked shall be banished
Must be atriox
Without question - Halo CE.
Under cover of the night makes me feel sad specially because you have to kill poor grunts in Truth and reconciliation and try to save them from the marines or from the flood in Two betrayals and is even sadder cause is almost impossible to save them...
