We need to keep the epic muic in future Halo games

What I really love about every Halo is the music(I don´t like Reach but I like it´s music). I think 343 should concentrate much on that which music made halo and keep it and make some good new ones. It is really a big part for the atmosphere in the campaign. Is there any composer at 343 yet? Thanks for Reading.

AMEN

> AMEN

I thought Reach’s soundtrack was good. Though, I thought Halo 2’s brought out more emotion, and that’s why it’s my favorite. It’s good to be epic, but you also need something in between the action.

Music builds the tone for things. Epic music is good, but it needs to fit the scenario or scene.

I like Reach’s solemn music because Halo: Reach is not a happy ending story.

I do hope they bring back something pretty awesome for music though. Something like Bulletstorm’s main menu music. That is some epic stuff right there. Chants, strings, horns. It’s pretty awesome.

It should mimic Titan AE’s soundtrack.

Contract Marty!

Yikes, I hadn’t thought about this…The music is a key factor in Halo and I hope it’s up to par (Marty -Yoink!-).

Maybe when he did Halo 3: ODST or any other Halo game. I felt the music in REACH, albeit melancholic due to the atmosphere of the game, was pretty sub-par to what he has done in the past.

I’d like a different composer’s take on the Halo franchise. Keep the main themes like the chanting, but make it their own and make it Halo. There are plenty of amazing composers out there.

What I really love about the Halo Community that it´s so large. Look what I found:

I think it´s one of the best fanmade themes for a Halo game. Maybe 343 should take help from the community like some Music themes or some ideas for campaign and multiplayer.

Music pretty much defines the Halo experience, which is odd when looking at other shooters such as Battlefield or Call of Duty, where it is more of an “aspect” or “element”. I hope 343 Industries respect the necessity for an absolute original score which conveys the exact emotion that both the player, and the characters in the story are feeling about the events that are unfolding before their very eyes.

Lets hope that the Gregorian Chant also makes a return - I’ve missed the Monks.

I found something new. People can be so talanted at remaking a soundtrack :smiley:
Marty have done a great job and I would love if he would make the soundtrack for the next Halo´s but the chance is really minimal. And you´re right. Not only the story makes Halo. The atmosphere and the Music fit so perfect in the game that I get everytime such an epic feeling like watching “the Covenant beginning cutscene” of Halo 3 or the part with the waterfalls where the in amber clad theme comes in Halo 2.

Halo Wars soundtrack was pretty good IMO.
