yeah this game was so awesome when i just got my sound blaster. then i tried doom and wolfenstein. my dad also got me the controller for this game. man i fucking miss this era of gaming. friends coming over being baffled how good it sounded over a snes.
I'll put my money on it being the Gravis UltraSound rendition. Don't forget Joshua Jensen, the composer, helped writing up the documentation of the GUS
I would like to thumb up your comment but my wife is looking at me very angrily now that I'm humming the first level track continuously for about a week..
I remember when I was a kid playing this great game, and when I heard Tubelectric track for the first time I thought it was the most badass song I ever heard. I'm 35 now and it stills gets me pumped today
8:24 slaps my face so hard actual tears are forming. What a time, man. In some ways I'm almost glad we can never go back. Don't want to overwrite these saved memories.
I'm in absolute love with these video game soundtracks that come from an era where where what you could put into the game was extremely limited because of the primitive hardware it had to run on. There were so many constraints that the developers and soundtrack team had to contend with that they had to get creative to see their vision fulfilled. Constraints breed creativity.
In Grade 11 I patched this into a mix tape to listen to. Medivo was THE best, especially with those orchestra blasts. I was ashamed for vibing out to a shareware game back then. Now I use this on my team as the sound test for corporate conference equipment.
Love stories like this. There's a popular (german) anti-amiga module which I used for testing stereo covoxes (it features a sequence of burps maxing on the left/right channel in turns) and 2 demoscene modules that became my test tune when developing the first aftermarket GUS compatible.
Personally, that's my soundtrack for the summer of 1996. This, Paul W. A. Anderson's Mortal Kombat Movie, my renting a ton of VHS horror flicks I'd watch in our silverfish-infested basement, obsessing over Mortal Kombat 3 on the SNES, finishing school and dive-bombing in my dinky above-ground pool, treating the right-of-way next to my house like some forbidden forest path when all it was was a stretch of unused land between two lots where the local cats would fight for territory and the late teens would sneak to so they'd bum a cig off of someone or swipe a beer... I'm almost forty and fuck, I miss those days.
I had the Mortal Kombat VHS as a teenager, both films actually and I didn't give a damn if the second wasn't as good. Back in the day everything felt like the most amazing stuff ever. I played Jazz Jackrabbit on someone's computer and it was crazy because it was like another Sonic game to me. I understand in your comment, the way it's important to pinpoint things like where you would have been at that time, because places kind of vanish. It's like a different universe really. I miss the old days too for sure.
Wow what a blast from the past. My friend Shaf and I used to play this all the time over modem as kids. It was a triumph for little-me just to manage to connect lol. Good times, the music really made this game, unforgettable!
Aww yeah! My first pc game, it was a shareware version floppy from a dollar store. Love the 90's games and tunes. Very cool channel, excellent content! Subbed for all the great music, thank U VengefulChip!
What a great soundtrack.. in 97 i was 12... i think i got my first computer at windows 98...???? so i may have been just before my time with this game.. bummer i missed out on this. But damn am i enjoying it now!
when Dos was the startup menu for Windows man I remember I played those game on a blue screen with only list of file names without any background, the moment I realized I am a gamer
This game gave me weird vibes when I was a kid because it had a much darker theme compared to the very cartoony Mario or Sonic games. There is certainly something special about it though. Jazz Jackrabbit 1 was my favorite game out of the series. The parrot companion and bouncing pill grenades. I always thought he's weapon looked like a crayon lol.
When you said Epic means this game was probably made by "Epic Mega Games" the guys who love making good games just remove "Mega" and you will guess who made "Fortnite"!
Only sound card supported game which did not have sounds on our old 486 with Sound Blaster 16. Probably game has corrupted data or something. This game and sequel are available to purchase on GOG, if anyone wants to play on modern system.
medivo. this would be so cool for quake. i remember someone put it in a unreal99 map and it fit SO FUCKING WELL! everyone i knew kept playing that awesome castle map. it had a cellar 2 middle layers and 4 towers u could snipe from.
Those are only on the expanded CD version of the game. I made a separate video for the tracks that only show up on that version, feel free to check that out.
Something tells me that you've used S3M files instead of original PSM files. On Bonus Stage guitar and synth speeds up and slows down much faster than it should. This thing appears only after converting PSM to S3M..
That's how certain older tools convert PSM files to S3M; needless to say, the conversion wasn't entirely accurate. Current versions of OpenMPT import the files correctly, at the expense of a loss in information; nonetheless, at least the songs sound correct...

This is my definition of "Sound Blaster".
yeah this game was so awesome when i just got my sound blaster. then i tried doom and wolfenstein.
my dad also got me the controller for this game. man i fucking miss this era of gaming. friends coming over being baffled how good it sounded over a snes.
@@miciso666 hell yeah. i remember playing this game really loud because of the soundtrack too lmao
Try to listen the music of this game with a Gravis Ultrasound (look at LGR's video)
I'll put my money on it being the Gravis UltraSound rendition. Don't forget Joshua Jensen, the composer, helped writing up the documentation of the GUS
I thought this was Soundblaster music at first too, but it's actually module tracker music.
this is the soundtrack we need but don't deserve
This and looking at the colorful MS-DOS icon.... What can be more nostalgic than this? Those colors...
word rescue ;)
Epic remake just this one... No 3d. Just awesome sprite work with this 90s awesome music. This will be a surprise hit.
Just wanted to let you know that your efforts are immensely appreciated.
Glad they do, thanks for the compliments! :)
agreed @vengefulchip! thank u man

8:24 slaps my face so hard actual tears are forming. What a time, man. In some ways I'm almost glad we can never go back. Don't want to overwrite these saved memories.
Tubelectric is so good. Particulary the drop, it's insane.
Tubelectric!!! Best song ever
I like 3d bonus stage better. And Cryssilis.
Totally agree! My favorite
@@UltimatePerfection Yes but Tubelectric is what we remember from our childhood :-)
sad the game runs on a timer. else u could let these songs play forever like with doom keen and some other great gems.
@Ike Wiseman It was Medivo, for me. Gosh, that song was amazing.

Medivo has been a forgotten tune in my head for yeeeaarrssss so glad to have found it
SAME HERE!

Medvio i loved that song and still does ... and the level was so nice

I love to listen to these while working on something or studying.
It's a good idea!
Same
From the Makers of Tyrian, Unreal, Gears of War, Bulletstorm, Fortnite... Epic!!!
Epic only published Tyrian. Eclipse was the one who developed the game.
love tyrian
You forgot about Fortnite.
Fortnite wasnt do it by the legendary team of Epic (Arjan Brusse, Cliffy B, Jamez Schmalz)
Bulletstorm was also just published by them
Wow what a blast from the past. My friend Shaf and I used to play this all the time over modem as kids. It was a triumph for little-me just to manage to connect lol. Good times, the music really made this game, unforgettable!
lol you had a modem, spoiled rich kid
man, does this take me back..
Probably the most iconic video game music to me. Medivo oh man!
Medivo is so fire
I just started to play this yesterday....now i can't just stop playing!!
Listening to this while writing enterprise software makes it groovy
Feel ya, fellow coder :D
This game is so under rated, it deserved a better legacy.
I´ve got tons of awesome Gaming memories from Jazz Jackrabbit :3
There's a whole lot more stereo separation here than when I listen to these themes by opening the files.
tubelectric and medivo are my dope they do stand out among the other tunes
Played this when I was 10 - 11ish. Good memories. Like the musical score. Really added to the ambiance of this childhood favorite
Thanks for the upload! I have been listening to this quite often recently.
TheSupremeSkill thanks for having a commander keen icon!
One of the best soundtracks! Love it!
MENU THEME is so fkn FIRE broooooo
Decades pass and you're still here somewhere within the massive storage room known as my mind. Nostalgia is a damn good drug.
Well done putting this together. One of the best game soundtracks! Medivo is my favourite!
This OST never gets old. I always told my friends this was "Genesis on DOS"
I've just uploaded a brand new version of Jazz Jackrabbit's "Crysilis" theme to my channel. Come check it out. I think you'll enjoy this.
Still the best original soundtrack ever in my opinion. All songs are bangers!
I've just uploaded a brand new version of JJ's "Crysilis" theme to my channel. Come check it out. I think you'll enjoy this.
This sound track is so good it's hard for me to pick up a favorite.

Man. This was the first PC game I remember playing after my dad taught me how to use DOS to access my game folder. Nostalgia levels 9000.
Marblelara always gets me
I was recommended to listen to this soundtrack.
I want to get recommended it again so I can listen some more.
you should listen to this again, just my recommendation
@@user-oi5hc6pv9k thank you for reminding me 👍
Amazing game, amazing soundtrack. Thank you.
I loved this game as a kid (and now as an adult too!)
Aww yeah! My first pc game, it was a shareware version floppy from a dollar store. Love the 90's games and tunes. Very cool channel, excellent content! Subbed for all the great music, thank U VengefulChip!
One of the best soundtrack of all time. Easily.

Damn, one of the very few platformers I ever actually finished!
My childhood, so nostalgic
So many childhood memories, the nice good old now-called chiptunes, as good as always!!!
Very Amiga like, I love it
it was greatly inspired by Zool which makes sense why they made it more Amiga like game
I love the Medivo-part.
M 2
THANK YOU ❤
ahhh brings me back to the time when my siblings and i would fight over who'd play.....me being the youngest, i spent a lot of time just watching lol
haha that was me too watching my older brother playing on our Sega Megadrive/Genesis
Ah. Another fabulous video game OST.
this deserves more likes and comments
When platformers were simpel with fun stories and good gameplay.
Thank you!
Thank you very much, very enjoyable!
Just a friendly reminder that there's a Jazz Jackrabbit based Mod for Doom.
Also, 0:27:54, the best track :)
whoa this is where my childhood was hiding
Did thou summon me?
the bonus level track always got me hyped af
That is one hell of a crazy bass line in the first tune :D
What a great soundtrack.. in 97 i was 12... i think i got my first computer at windows 98...???? so i may have been just before my time with this game.. bummer i missed out on this. But damn am i enjoying it now!
Damn!! Crysillis is the old dubstep? 😅❤️WAU!! I LOVE THIS! 😊😉
when Dos was the startup menu for Windows man I remember I played those game on a blue screen with only list of file names without any background, the moment I realized I am a gamer
It made me a gamer
Thanks for allowing me to reconnect with 5 year old me!
Simply amazing.
diamondus gang rise up

Jazz Jackrabbit 1 was my favorite game out of the series. The parrot companion and bouncing pill grenades. I always thought he's weapon looked like a crayon lol.
Thank you Arjan Brussee & Cliff Bleszinski for this masterpiece
3:49 I was humming this today. Man, i loved that game.
Ah Yes , The Golden Era of Gaming
Epic :D
When you said Epic means this game was probably made by "Epic Mega Games" the guys who love making good games just remove "Mega" and you will guess who made "Fortnite"!
Only sound card supported game which did not have sounds on our old 486 with Sound Blaster 16. Probably game has corrupted data or something. This game and sequel are available to purchase on GOG, if anyone wants to play on modern system.
My favorites:
10. Bonus Stage
9. Megairbase
8. Deckstar (not listed)
7. Orbitus
6. Medivo
5. Fanolint
4. Crysilis
3. Technoir
2. Guardian Boss Stage
1. Tubelectric
Deckstar was only on the CD version of the game, that's why it's not listed...
Tubeletric will forever be the best on the soundtrack
The number 1 is also my favorite even the main menu theme!!
@@huh9490 Agreed!
** I'M THE BEST !! HE'S ME..:) ONLY ME & MYSELF & MINE..
Growing up everyone was all about Mario, I was like what about Jazz? he is the badassest of'em all, and people were like "jazz" who?... :(
Jazz is actually Sonic inspired.
Do you have a Gravis Gamepad?
Nostalgia FTW! Yum!
Did thou summon me?
STEREO! YES!
*🤗GOOSEBUMPS!!!!!*
Hey part 2 download link is dead. Any chance you fix it ?
I really want those FLAC files. 😍
Record them yourself.
It's crazy to think that in the year I was born, awesome games like this were already coming out.
They are all so good. Somehow, "Scraparap" is my favorite though. Doesn't sound at all like "rap" though, but it does sound amazing.
Sluggion is such a banger!
medivo. this would be so cool for quake.
i remember someone put it in a unreal99 map and it fit SO FUCKING WELL!
everyone i knew kept playing that awesome castle map. it had a cellar 2 middle layers and 4 towers u could snipe from.
Sluggion omg, that's style right there
kids these days will never know how great it was to play this then and even now 🥲
Hell yes! Floppy ears and a big gun!
Nostalgasm
14:36 is this the best drop or what?
Remember playing this in a big Ole beige computer
This is missing quite a few tracks such as Deckstar and Lagunicus.
Those are only on the expanded CD version of the game. I made a separate video for the tracks that only show up on that version, feel free to check that out.
For quite awhile I was sure that Alexander Brandon (composer of JJ2, the canceled 3rd game and UT) did this one as well. Apparently I was wrong
what a disappointment
but at least he did castle, i think its jj best track
Still as sweet like the first time..
Steep Hare.... oh mah Neko Mimi Moto!!
Megairbase is my fav, better than the first map midi on the sunlust wad chasing suns.
💯 wow!
Ooh Jesus!
Just thought I let you know that Part 2 of the soundtrack is no longer available. A shame, since I want to listen to this while driving to work.
The soundtrack has a very "Amiga" sounding to it.
Something tells me that you've used S3M files instead of original PSM files. On Bonus Stage guitar and synth speeds up and slows down much faster than it should. This thing appears only after converting PSM to S3M..
