Sounds like the menu music should be in a WW2 game. Not Halo.
Just saying.

I can defiantly see why you have that opinion, it does sound WW2ish.
Honestly it sounds like Star Trek music to me at certain points.
Agree, completely unfitting. Isn’t Marty looking for a new job?
You know what to do 343

“Defiantly” is not the word you’re looking for.
Also, OP is wrong.
Very dissappointed cuz i wanted to see the return of the legendary monks but no. It sounds like COD 2 and 3 if i remember correctly.
Reminds me of the avengers lol
Heavy brass in Halo themes. why.
Brass isn’t even bad all the time, it just doesn’t convey a large range of emotion, mainly just happiness and determination. If I’m listening to a Halo theme, and I can’t hear the strings, that’s bad. Violins, Cellos, Violas, Basses, Pizzicato, assorted Woodwinds; are things that convey serious emotion when played, and this is from someone that enjoys Jazz music… In Halo 3 and Halo Reach, brass sections were handled exceptionally well, and were used very sparingly. Heck, not even during the first climb…
The first couple of tracks in Halo 5 speak for themselves, but the last two tracks, man… THAT’s good Halo music.

Sounds very Mass Effect/Star Wars-ish to me. Gives me a good funny feeling in my stomach, haha
Not exactly WW2 but definitely not halo music.
It has a very heroic sound, I would like to see a 3 track rotation for the menu so its not blaring horns everytime I go back to the main menu.
Sounds like the intro to a Universal Studios movie. lol
Sounds very Marty’ish. Kinda like Halo3’s OST with a mix of sci-fi with fantasy.
So what?
Halo CE used Gregorian Chant - a style of music that dates back to the 14th century CE (or AD for you religious folks).
I like the beta menu music. Refreshing really.
The MCC menu music is sickening after awhile. Big sappy score music wasn’t a good choice, especially considering how much time we have to spend listening to it in between games.

You can’t be serious if you think a brass ensemble cannot convey emotion.
Maybe be you should look farther than the average high school marching band.

I love listening to the classic halo music in the menus. Better than silence
343 made it pretty clear with H4 that they wanted to create a new sound for Halo. I think they got it all wrong. Lots of sweeping arcs that fell shy of the target.
This time around? I think with Kazuma at the reigns they’ve gotten back to what makes Halo music: fantastic choral work, weird synths, that awesome drum motif and the occasional jauntiness. So the well-loved chant isn’t there: if it features in the final game for more than 2 bars, it will have improved on H4.
So yeah, can’t agree that any of that is “wrong”
Agreed i hope they reremaster h1’s theme for the menue… or make the covenant dance as the title song lol. <3 covenant dance

I think it’s a typo. He was trying to write “definitely” which is commonly misspelled with an a.
