SE-2001-2: Age of Mythology Original Soundtrack

[RFGalaxy]

First post, so I hope it isn't fail, but... it looks like the notes section is crediting the composers for tracks they composed. Both composers are credited for composing all 17 tracks though. It says this on the first line of the credits page for both versions of the soundtrack. I own this version and confirm it in my copy, and you can see the other release's credits here. What the notes seem to match up with are the tracks each composer programmed and synthesized. Is it better to sort of assume that programming/synthesizing means they basically composed the track, or should we at least write in the notes what's written in the booklet? Then at least it would be a little less misleading, I think.

The notes don't make it clear that what they're being credited for is performance, so I agree with you. While I think it's VERY LIKELY McMullen and Rippy wrote the songs they performed, it is theoretically possible that's not always the case.

And the info from the booklet is much more detailed than what we have now anyway.

Okay then. Should I transcribe all of the info in the booklet to the notes field? I see this done sometimes. Or you or someone else can do it if only editors/staff can make changes? I haven't made any edits yet.

Generally what's important are the credits for writing and performing the music. If you feel like it, you can transcribe all the credits, like recording & mastering, art design, special thanks, etc., but that's up to the user.

You can make the edits no problem.

Okay, thank you. I submitted the credits and also put the performers in the proper field, but I'm not seeing the way to make the names link like they do in the other fields. Maybe it's done on a different page afterwards?

Only folks with higher editing privileges can turn artists (and products and publishers) into links, so you didn't miss anything. Efendija linked them all up, though, so you're good to go.

Thanks for the contributions!

Ah, great, thank you. Editing is very easy here
