The score to METAL GEAR SOLID (1998) has been released for free
Hello, wanted to bring to your attention that the man responsible for writing most of METAL GEAR SOLID's cinematics/cutscenes score (Gigi Meroni) has partnered with RedCode Interactive to release the score… For free.
(Please, note that this is a thumbnail, the cover image in its original resolution comes with the album) Tracklist 01 Prologue 02:02 02 Infiltrate 01:22 03 Undercover 01:21 04 Aurora 02:21 05 Stealth 01:12 06 Hope 01:19 07 Submarine 01:23 08 Grind 03:01 09 Revolver 01:53 10 Octavia 02:34 11 Hymns 03:33 12 Mission 00:54 13 Pulse 02:25 14 Escape 02:25 15 Committed 03:33 16 Loyalty 02:30 17 Lightness 03:34 18 Hypnotize 01:44 19 Approach 04:16 20 Tunnel 01:48 21 Element 02:07 22 Ostinato 01:46 23 Vertigo 02:22 24 Fugue 01:39 25 Lyrical 02:09 26 Uncertainty 02:32 27 Epilogue 03:04 A reply by RedCode Interactive to a comment on the Youtube Preview (which you can find on previously linked page, along with download links) gives a brief summary of how this album came to be.

Sorry, I haven't been very clear. To anyone else: download links for the album and the album preview on Youtube can be found on RedCode Interactive's Facebook page, which is linked in the opening post.

But did Meroni actually have the rights to release this? I find it somewhat hard to believe a company like Konami wouldn't retain the copyright for it.

That's a good point. I figured that this was done with all the necessary steps being taken, but I guess we don't really know for sure. I'd love to hear some more info regarding this.

I remembered something, isn't this sort of similar to what happened with the Enter the Matrix promo? Did the composer have the rights to produce and sell the album? Didn't the music belong to developers of the game, or maybe even movie company (that video game did use music from the movie franchise), legally speaking? EDIT: You know what? Whatever happens, I'm glad I managed to snag this, at last something surfaced. Last edited by ilef; Oct 17, 2019 at 05:22 AM. Reason: Small fix |

I doubt that's what happened here, but it is an interesting precedent. |

Skip to 00:12 - 00:13 Compare the music the music that starts then to "01 Prologue", they sound pretty much the same to me, but I'm honestly listening through phone+earbuds, since I'm not at home. Last edited by ilef; Oct 17, 2019 at 05:33 AM. Reason: Typo |

Hello, I've found Gigi Meroni's official website, in case someone wants to ask him more detailed information about this release: http://sonicvault.us/film-tv-credits/#video-games.
This album also seems to have music that ended up unused/not included in the final version of the game. |

It's been a while since I've played MGS. Could someone post timestamps of where each track plays in the game?

Now onto something else: I tried to send an e-mail to Gigi Meroni, used the contact form found on his website, but I didn't receive an answer. Last edited by ilef; Jan 15, 2020 at 10:22 AM. Reason: Small mistake. |
