Bravo to you, agent007jb. I have longed for a definitive section on the music from the video games. I do feel that it easily gets neglected by the studios, who fail time and again to put out proper releases (with only the obvious counter-examples of Tommorow Never Dies on PSX and the disappearing Everything or Nothing downloads). Being a proper fan, however, I am eager to help in any way I can regarding the collection and spreading of the most complete, best quality game music out there. That being said, I don't have much, and it's only music I've gathered from other sources (*cough* Rafael *cough*). But here we are:

007 Racing (12 tracks, 27 min, 128kbps, ripped by 00_Agent)
Goldeneye Source OST (17 tracks, 41 min, 192 kbps, ripped by Rafael)
James Bond: The Duel (9 tracks, 16 min, 160/192 kbps, ripped by Rafael)

These are the only additional albums I've found on my comp thus far; as I find more, I'll add them here. Glad to be part of this group :D

That's a good thread, really. Looks like you have some albums that some of us (including myself :P) are looking for years, like the complete rip for EON and GE: RA. The game rips I made were the ones described before (thanks AZabko007), with the exception of GE: Source; I didn't do it, it was a "Official release" by the creators of the project. I don't want to take credit over other people's work :D

I've ripped 007 Goldeneye(N64) Soundtrack as well, but in a different way: to not make the album too long (and boring) I've mixed the normal level tracks with the "X" tracks, saving time and memory. It has some sound enhancements as well, like volume normalization and expanded stereo panning, so it has better quality than other rips you can find (or at least I think so!) It is on mp3 128 kbps (it doesn't require a higher bitrate either) so the total file size is less than 100 MB.
I am not home right now, so I can't post the time lenght... I will edit the post soon! I haven't started ripping TWINE, but I intend to do it soon! Just a reminder: From what I've listened from this game, the music isn't in a very good quality... Isn't even red book audio! For now, I will post the link from the rips I made (and GE: Source):

That's my contribution so far, I hope you guys enjoy it, and feel free to share the links. I am planning to rip TWINE for PSX, and I could try something on Agent Under Fire (I haven't the game yet, btw), but I can't be sure if I will succeed. And could you share with us the complete rip for GE:RA? And what's the most complete selection of EON: The DVD, the rip, the album, or all together?

thank you for the posts guys. I will work on making those rips available soon. In response to which flavor of EoN is the most complete. I would have to say that the DVDrick release is the most complete, however the official EA Records release also contains some cinematic music that was left out of the DVDRick release.

The World Is Not Enough rip is a very good rip. Was that extracted from the USF files. I will mention this, I think the music from the "options" screen is missing. I have misc files from another rip done a long time ago and it is in there. Can anyone confirm if this was obmitted?

I also wanted to ask everyones opinion on GoldenEye Source. I noticed one track is an oddball called "facility classic" that had a different bitrate and tag information. The cue sounds identical to the N64 version and I wonder if it was really in GoldenEye Source. Because of this, would anyone object if this was the new numbering of the tracks for GoldenEye Source?


01 - The Spy Who Pwnd Me (Trailer Version).mp3
02 - Bondage.mp3
03 - The Watch.mp3
04 - Facility.mp3
05 - The Surface.mp3
06 - Control.mp3
07 - Control X.mp3
08 - Silo.mp3
09 - Archives.mp3
10 - Caverns.mp3
11 - Cradle.mp3
12 - Aztec.mp3
13 - Egyptian Temple.mp3
14 - Guns 'n Gadgets.mp3
15 - Archives (remix).mp3
16 - Facility Classic.mp3
17 - The Watch (Ghetto Remix).mp3

I own both Agent Under Fire and Nightfire for Xbox, and tried years ago to find an extract, but with no luck. Perhaps now, someone would have made a better tool for extracting that content. Could anyone point me in the right direction :D

Well, I would like both albuns of EON soundtrack, if you please! As with TWINE, it's ripped from the USF (just like Goldeneye), and it has all the tracks, including the menu. Just check it out!

About Ge: Source, I can't rememeber quite well if the Facility Classic music was on the game (I think it is), and I searched for some kind of tracklist, but the tracks are not numbered at all, so, you can do what you want.

Here are the files for Everything or Nothing the rip release. Its in rar file, so you will need the free winrar utility available from http://www.rarlab.com/. All four parts are needed to extra the entire 180mb collection of mp3 files. A lot less of pain from saving every single mp3 file :D

Actually, I use to really love giving nameless tracks names from both movies and video games, however I will say that these DVDRick releases are going to be a challenge. Since they are direct extracts from the game sometimes the music will flip flop between two entirely different levels within a 3 minute long track.

GoldenEye Rogue Agent is going to be an VERY hard rip to give track titles too. Paul Oakenfold's score to GERA is a mess of "interesting" noise making each track sound very similar, not to mention playing GERA again would be tooooo painful. So, as dedicated as JBVGME is, i suspect as James Bond video games become more and more musically advanced, having tracks that are named is going to be a thing of the past.

Still if someone wants to tackle GERA, I may be able to name many of the tracks from the EON rip. Does it make us any less of an enthusiast :D.

A few tracks for the EoN score were done by a different composer

The gunbarrel is the track "intro" here: http://www.greenwire...lery-frame.html


The file should save to your 'temporary internet files", I think thats how things work on windows - although now I'm a Mac user, my memory may fail me :P

Yeah the gun barrel music was part of the opening cinematic sequence, which sadly was not included on this rip, as there were all the other cinematic cues. The opening in particular following the gun barrel used a different arrangement of the music in the metal mine level.

On the official released soundtrack by EA Records, there was a few cinematic music cues that will remain unique to that release. The cues aren't that substantial, but for completest sake, should be included. That is the problem with rendered video and music all in one and something that made the Myst IV rip incomplete :D

Here are two more posts for additional music from EoN.

http://www.4shared.c...rified=919e2167
http://www.4shared.c...rified=919e2167

The Songs link contains the three versions of Myas theme vocally, but there is also the three versions of just underscore, no vocals.

The DVD is from the EBgames DVD from 2003 and includes the following tracks.

01. Everything or Nothing (performed by Mya).mp3
02. James Bond Theme.mp3
03. Tunisia.mp3
04. Egyptian Descent.mp3
05. Passage.mp3
06. An Old Friend.mp3
07. Silent Ascension.mp3
08. Everything or Nothing - Jazz Version (performed by Mya).mp3
09. The Search.mp3
10. Freefall.mp3
11. Kiss Kiss Fight.mp3
12. A Way Out.mp3
13. To Arms.mp3
14. Restoration.mp3
15. Everything or Nothing - Remix Version (performed by Mya).mp3

There is also 2 cues from the EoN website where they posted two Callery cues, one was the Dam level and the other was the music from the graveyard, which was nice to have at the time as the Promo DVD didn't contain that cue.

Before you did your excellent rip of the nintendo 64 version of TWINE,I kept many different copies of fan based rips of the TWINE64 score. All were incomplete and different bitrates and names, however using your rip as a blueprint, I believe there was two cues missing. One was the music of the subway station and the other was the option screen music. I renamed the clips as 18 and 19 and tacked them on to the end of your rip. Here is a link to the files if you also want to hear.

http://www.4shared.c...rified=919e2167

Also regarding the EA Records release of EoN. Here is the track listing.

01 - James Bond Theme.mp3
02 - Russian Liar.mp3
03 - Bond Jumps Through Glass.mp3
04 - Collecting Stuff In New Orleans.mp3
05 - Bond Escapes Fortress.mp3
06 - Crash Into Lobby.mp3
07 - Entering The Train.mp3
08 - Save Katya.mp3
09 - Graveyard At Night.mp3
10 - Jaws.mp3
11 - Mine Facility Fight.mp3
12 - Plantation Hand To Hand Combat.mp3
13 - Rooftop Bike Chase.mp3
14 - Quick Action.mp3
15 - Russian Tank.mp3
16 - Sneaking Around The Train Cars.mp3
17 - Train Chase.mp3
18 - The Crematorium.mp3
19 - Tank Battle 2.mp3
20 - Bond In Sneak Mode.mp3
21 - Winning The Trophy.mp3

Many of the cues on the Promo DVD were not on this album. With the exception of I believe two tracks, any cue that used any portion of the James Bond Theme was left out.

Because this album was a legitimate itunes style release, it can't be dumped freely. Naturally like everything, its "out" there, you just have to know where to look. Rhapsody and itunes was suppose to release GERE, FRWL and EON as digital downloads. Only EON ever made it, and I think now it has been discontinued.

Interestingly enough, I made my own "expanded" version of the EON soundtrack which combined all tracks form the EA Records release and the Promo DVD. It makes a perfect 77minute CD.

I believe what is throwing things off is the Subway cue sounds VERY familiar to one of the ripped tracks from a later part of the game. However, one clue for me anyway was that the beginning of the subway cue features a loud Clanking sound in the beginning.

As far as the PSX Rip of the game goes, that came out great :D. Nice to finally have both scores to compare now and it is good.

As with TWINE, I downloaded your tracks, and I notice that "Options Music" is indeed the Pause menu Music. I included that and reuploaded the soundtrack again:

I have grabbed JBVGM over the years and probably have a lot of what many other enthusiasts have. So, without further ado:

* Agent Under Fire (20 Tracks, 28min 160kbps) #
* Agent Under Fire (12 Tracks, 27min 64/128kbps) #
# These tracks feel like extracts with names like (cine_embassyoutside_mxV2.mp3). Agent Under Fire feels the most incomplete and neglected.

These are the flavors I am aware of right now for the PS2/XBOX/GameCube generation.


Hey, would you please post these soundtracks?
