Daaaamn!

First two mins are pure CE. Nostalgia overload.

Rest is some intense orchestra, but still amazing.

Pumped to see what this game is like now in two weeks.

Sounds very good imo. It captures a lot of that old Halo feel while also adding something new. I really like these!

Ignoring track 5 as it's not a part of the soundtrack these all sound fantastic and have that distinctive Halo feel to them. The drums, bass and subtle use of synths especially give me Halo 1 vibes.

Yoooooo

Big Halo CE energy from Track 2. My favorite soundtrack in the series.

I recognized some of those tracks, which makes me think the rest are legit.

Track 01 is from the start of last year gameplay:



Track 03 is from the Discover Hope cinematic:



Also I think that track 04 is the one that starts at 03:42 at last year gameplay:



And I think that track 06 is the one that plays arround 06:17

Sounds more like 2 than CE to me
I thought track 2 was a section of Mombasa Suite for a second 😅

I am really loving these. I missed the tribal feel of CE's soundtrack even in Bungie's other Halo games.

Meh.


There's nothing wrong with the tracks but for the most part they're far too familiar. Most of these could be remixes of old tracks. I get the desire to maintain the themes from the older titles but you can do that and inject more originality than what's on display here.

What
Its true they sound 100% like Halo, but i find them to be pretty boring, every Halo Infinite track we heard lacks a certain "punch" or melody to make it unique, they arent really that different from Tom Salta's Spartan Assault bso, which its fantastic btw, just not Halo Main Series worthy.

I agree.

I think it's because they're overly derivative of previous work. It's difficult to create that "punch" when it's basically the same as what we've been listening to for the last 15 years.

Wow they really nailed the CE sound.

I always tell people that the percussion is what makes Halo music so good

The more music I hear from this game the less excited it makes me. Where are the new themes or bold choices that'll make this stand out as a Halo soundtrack? I can pinpoint the exact track from a previous game that each of those snippets are riffing on.

Why does it seem like someone told the composers' to only riff on sounds and themes from Halo's 1 - 3?

Can hear the Ori DNA in track 4. Ori 2 is one of my favorite soundtracks of all time. I have 110% faith that Gareth will knock this out of the park/neighborhood/city/state/country.

I love it. The composers (there are three of them for H:Infinite) have already clarified that while some of the themes are "remixes" of old themes, they will have a lot of new music.
They got the "feel" down, now let's see what they come up with that's new.

In the end, I love halo music. This is all straight marvelous to me.

As someone who adores all Halo soundtracks including Halo 4's (e.g. 117 and Green and Blue) and 5's (e.g. Crypt, Light is Green, the entire Osiris Suite and of course The Trials), I get your point.

However, I really wouldn't worry too much. Microsoft wants to tout the nostalgia horn hard for its marketing, and I can't blame them for it. It also seems to be working.

Considering who these three composers are, I'm certain they will offer plenty of wonderful new music. This is them proving they get Halo's sound, much like The Coalation proved they get Gears with Gears 4. But I'm sure there will be lots of variety.

I had similar thoughts as well.

Hopefully we'll see some more unique stuff in the actual game!

I need to get this OST when it comes out. Hopefully it gets released on CD. I really like all the callbacks to older Halo games in Infinite.

I'll be honest, I had my doubts when I heard Gareth Coker was working on this since I wasn't familiar with his work, but damn this sounds amazing. I can't wait to get the full soundtrack.

That switch on track 3, sooooo good.

You need to listen to the Ori soundtracks…. Like now. They are absolutely incredible.

I get the thoughts some have shared about these being callbacks to Halo 1-3. I get that, but I think it's absolutely necessary to nail that before doing other things given the type of vibe they're going for on Infinite. Also, didn't they say there would be 3-4 hours of music recorded for the game? Think there will be plenty of variation in the final OST.
