Hey guys, it's all done! This is my Complete Soundtrack to Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy. Recorded using my optical-in sound card and accompanied by tracks taken from the Official Soundtrack (https://play.google.com/store/music/album/Vicarious_Visions_Audio_Music_from_Crash_Bandicoot ?id=Bjpgeucmmnrkaxcmamndar3uaha) (which have been normalized so they're not so damn loud compared to the others), this baby tots up to 100 total tracks and 2h 27m of goodness, 53 more tracks and 1h 15m longer than the Official Soundtrack! It's all one big list, but the tracks have been given appropriate albums for easy sorting and have game-appropriate album art as well. As well, all the track names are derived from my Crash Bandicoot PS1 Soundtrack Collection (Thread 213078), as has the track ordering (so for example, the Snow Go Death Trap music doesn't play until the second Warp Room where you can actually access it). Lastly, the album art has been composed so that it matches up perfectly with the album art I used for the original games!

UPDATE 2!!: Thanks to the help of DCX672323, sparksterfan, TheHBS91 and NCFirebolt21. I've done a significant update to the Soundtrack:

DCX let me know that the music I was using for the OST tracks weren't fully lossless so providing them in FLAC was recursive, so NCFirebolt hooked me up with a lossless version.
Sparkster and TheHBS let me know I had accidentally removed the Crash 1 Epilogue track, so that has been reinstated to bring the total track count to 101.
NCFirebolt let me know that the Tomb Wader Death Trap music was just a repeat of the High Time Death Trap music, so I fixed that issue as well.
Lastly, I upped the volume for the Aku Aku Invulnerability track as it wasn't as loud as it should have been compared to the rest of the tracks.
For consistency I've also updated the MP3 version of the soundtrack too with all of these changes, including the proper FLAC tracks from the OST.
There shouldn't be a need to redo this Soundtrack anymore unless there was a mistake on my part or we get some cleaner cutscene music in the future. Open the Spoilers below for the previous changelog.
UPDATE!: Now that we can get music from PS4 discs, I've done a complete revamp of this Soundtrack. Every track has been redone!
The Vicarious Visions "Titles Screen" track has been edited slightly to be a bit shorter and emphasize the music more.
All of the non-OST tracks have been redone using the original music files ripped from the game. This means there's no longer a fade-in for transitional tracks like Into the Jungle, Aku Aku Invincibility, and Crash 2 & 3's Bonus Rounds and Death Traps!
The above also applies to the cutscene tracks, which now utilize the center channel of their 5.1 mix, which tends to have the least dialogue and sound effects, as well as clearer music.
For the Bonus Round and Crash 3 Death Trap tracks, the rip had them in two parts: the intro and the main body of music. Due to the game's nature of loading, the main body will often play later or earlier. For authenticity I aligned them according to the original PSone tracks.
All OST tracks have been re-exported to be slightly louder, to match the slightly louder audio of the rip files compared to my original recordings. Cutscene tracks are now as loud as possible without peaking, as they would be too quiet otherwise.
The Hologram tracks from Crash 2 have now been renamed "[Character] Head Hologram", to reflect their on-disc filenames.
The track names for Death Traps that appear later than their theme's first level have been renamed to reflect the level they actually appear in. For example, "Future Frenzy - Death Trap" has been renamed to "Gone Tomorrow - Death Trap".
The intro cutscene music from Crash 3 has been added.
I also added the 100% ending from Crash 2. I'll be honest, this was really only to bump the tracklist up to a round 100 as it doesn't have any unique music, plus it was the only track in the rip that would have gone unused otherwise.
The Ending for Crash 2 and the 103% Ending for Crash 3 are now longer than before. This is because, for unknown reasons, their Left and Right channels are longer than what is actually heard in-game.
I have also included all four pieces of album art as .pngs, including the boxart if you'd like consistency across the soundtrack.

Any tracks marked with a * are derived from the Official Soundtrack, and thus have proper finishes as opposed to the fade outs of the other tracks.




Titles Screen
The above track is slightly edited around the lines "Developed by Vicarious Visions!" to provide a better listening experience. As well, once the original theme plays, we have switched to the OST version which has better levelling and finishes rather than fades out.

Thank you so much for this and the originals collection. <3

Aw CRAP! I just noticed that Pinstripe's track was completely silent for some reason. The new MP3 version is up, the FLAC one is inbound atm.

EDIT: FLAC version is up!

Amazing work, thanks a lot!

Rep up.

Lovely work! Been waiting for this.

Might wanna re-pack the FLAC version, man. Some of the files don't extract, and Winrar flashes an "Unexpected end of archive" error message.

No such issues on the MP3 one, though, so you're good there.

KBABZ, you are a rock star!! Thanks many times for this incredible collection.

ok now we need a PS1 x PS4 soundtrack, a mashup between this remaster soundtrack and the original

Well crap. Re-uploading the FLAC one now (I did a test extract to make sure it worked), I'll drop in the link once I get back from work.

Couldn't you do that by renaming the PS4 tracks to sit alongside the PS1 versions?

Many thanks. I see you got the "Cortex Hologram " tune.

Hey guys, the FLAC version has been uploaded. Lemme know if there are any issues with it!


Many thanks. I see you got the "Cortex Hologram " tune.
Yup! Coco and Brio's are also there too.

Thank you mann!

You made my week :p

Only after i downloaded i saw that's the PS1 version in both links, are they correct, or just for me? Everyone seems to have downloaded and enjoyed...

Dammit! I'm really sorry about that, I thought I uploaded a slightly updated version (fixed a spelling error), but it looks like I uploaded the PS1 Soundtracks instead. Please sit tight, I'm uploading the correct ones now.

EDIT: Newest version is up. I corrected a spelling error ("The Eels Deal", ugh). I hope you enjoy the soundtrack!

Thank you for this

Thanks!!

Can't wait to download this. thanks!

say... is the cortex hologram supposed to be like that? like, with no room for an actual loop?

say... is the cortex hologram supposed to be like that? like, with no room for an actual loop?
Yes, but not by preference. Since this is a recording (rips aren't yet possible) I'm constrained by the length of time a tracks plays, as well as any cross-fades and stuff like that. Normally that isn't an issue, but for the Hologram clips I'm limited by how long the cutscenes themselves are. The Cortex one is from the first hologram he has because that's the longest one in the game, but even that doesn't last long enough to play the entirety of the track being used.

oh no wait, scratch that
since these are recorded there's no way of getting a "full" version of the hologram music
good job on the rest tho, damn shame they aren't looped tho

Really cool folders. Thanks a lot.

Thank you for your share KBABZ :)

Quality so much better than expected, Thanks

awesome tho

Thanks!!

Thanks a lot

oh hey i just noticed while looping the tracks
you did goof koala kong's last bit, faded it out a little too soon

Thanks a lot for doing this as well as the originals! Love these games and their OSTs

Thanks a ton for your upload KBABZ!

Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back ()
Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped ()

I did that on purpose. Thing is those files are contained in the music file itself, which increases their size for something that will be displayed as tiny on most devices you'll listen to the music on, like an iPod or your PC music player. The main reason why I release MP3 tracks with no looping is specifically because of file size for portable devices so you can fit more music on there.

Thank you so much!

Hey, KBABZ, I just noticed something: the Snow Go song fades out a little too early. I think it should start fading out after about 1:50. I'd appreciate if you could look into this!!

All in all, though, thanks many times for this awesome collection!! MY CHILDHOOD IS BACK

Awesome! Thank you very much!

Great stuff Thank You

THANKS

Thank you, KBABZ, for sharing these! It's always good to know there's love for the Bandicoot and the music that come with him.

The Cortex and Coco Hologram tracks don't seem to be complete. Like they seem end at least 30 seconds before hitting their proper "loop points" or whatever it's called.

Very interesting! His version also appears to lack the fade in that usually occurs with his tracks. Sounds like he was able to rip them! I've sent him a message on YouTube asking if he would be able to provide me with his original recordings.

As for my versions, the reason why they're that short is that they are both exactly as long as the longest cutscene those tracks appear in. In-game you never hear the full version, even in the PSone originals.

Hey guys, soundtrack update! Now that we can get music from PS4 discs, I've done a complete revamp of this Soundtrack. Every track has been redone, so there should be no need to redo this Soundtrack ever, unless there was a mistake on my part or we get some cleaner cutscene music in the future.

Awesome! Thanks

It looks like you forgot to include the Dr. Neo Cortex boss theme from Crash 2 in the MP3 version (I haven't looked at the FLAC version yet).

It would've been track #67, between 66. Rock It and 68. Ending.

If you get a chance, can you add this track back in and re-upload the soundtrack?

EDIT: It also looks like you removed the Crash 1 track "Epilogue" that was included in the first release. Was this a repeated/redundant track? Just curious, and apologies in advance if I'm asking any stupid questions here.

thanks. i just wish they were looped one more time at least. a song with a 1 in the minute mark isn't to my liking.

Thanks for putting back in track #67!

Again, was that Crash 1 "Epilogue" track from the original release removed because it was repeated/redundant?

Thank you! Been waiting for this soundtrack!

Again, was that Crash 1 "Epilogue" track from the original release removed because it was repeated/redundant?Yeah, it's just the same as The Great Hall, only difference being it starting at a different part of the song via fade-in. There isn't even a unique music entry for it in the game's files, either.

Thanks for clearing that up: I have the old release, and was trying to decide whether or not I wanted to keep it archived.

Thanks for your update and hard work!

WOW what a nice complete compilation, this is fantastic work, thank you so much KBABZ!

Wow they're surprisingly short, but still great, thanks again!

Yeah I don't really like looping tracks unless they're particularly short. And thank you!

This is brilliant!

Only thing is the gamerip tracks aren't looped and the ones from the OST are still present and stick out greatly compared to the other ones.

If these's any way to loop the gamerip tracks, could you please make that happen. Also replace all the OST tracks with their gamerip counterparts, as too keep consistency, or have both versions and tag them: "*Level name* (OST Ver.)".

I used the OST tracks precisely because they have proper finishers, which I greatly prefer over loop-and-fade-out. Using the OST tracks was also done because the files in the game itself are at 128kbps, while the OST of course is lossless.

Thank you!

WOW! thread rated rep+1! Thank you for this cool release!

The flac is really full of transcode, music from the official soundtrack is transcoded, i can give you the real lossless files of it.

Hmm, okay. I'll see if I can do that sometime, if you want it that badly.

As for the game, the PS4 game has the music in MP3 at 128kbps, so there's really no helping those. I doubt the PC release would improve the quality given that they had an entire Blu-Ray to work with.

I'm not doing looping, sorry. I personally prefer them having proper outro ends over a loop and a fade, which I only do due to a lack of anything else.

Anyway that's a great work for compiling everything! Thank you!

Oh shit, I didn't remember the sound was that bad on ps4 haha...
Yeah probably PC will get a lossy mix, but i'm sure Nintendo Switch could have a lossless mix, generally Nintendo have lossless codec for developpers, let's see.

I would definately like the Soundtrack files if better versions of the rest of the music become available via Switch or PC. Given that VV didn't have good audio, you should probably double-check them to see if they didn't just convert the MP3 PS4 files like I did!

Anyways, PLEASE keep me posted on that, I'm not tapped into when people rip these things.

What happened to track "031 Epilogue" from Crash 1?
I know it looks the same as "The Great Hall", but it's different.
Can you put it back?
Also, there's an intro cutscene like Crash 2 without Cortex's voice:

I probably didn't pick that version because the music side sounded better elsewhere in the track.

I still have the old soundtrack with "Epilogue", if you lost to put it back.

Big Thanx for the flac version!!!

Just a FYI, I checked the files on the PC version of the game and can confirm they use the same 128kbps source files. I'd be surprised if the Switch used lossless.

Just to clarify for those interested, the PC version's audio files are FMOD MP2.

Which I'm told is of even lower quality than the FMOD MP3 used by the PS4/Switch versions, though frankly I'm not hearin' that huge a difference, personally.

Whoa. I used to follow your Metal Slug sprite rips years ago, Gussprint, seeing you again is weirdly nostalgic.

Thanks!

By the way...

Crash Bandicoot 3 Warped - Hang Em' High (High Time) Death Route and Tomb Wader Death Route music is exactly the same, when they should actually be different :|

Otherwise, many thanks for your comprehensive edit. I have the FLACs of the official release.

Please don't forget "Epilogue" music from Crash 1, while you updating.

Yep, thanks for that. It's loaded into the FLAC version and ready to go when I get the rest done. (same with the Tomb Wader Death Trap track)


I have the FLACs of the official release.
Also, where can I buy/acquire a lossless version of the OST? I can only find Google Play, which is MP3, and iTunes, which is m4a and often at 290kbps.

MP3 is better than FLAC, in my opinion.

MP3 is better than FLAC, in my opinion.
I agree, I like the versatility of MP3 because anything can play it and it's much smaller, and I can't tell the difference between 320kbps and FLAC. But I've gotten a lot of requests for my UOSTs in FLAC and it's a very handy archival measure, so I've started providing them as of the Ratchet & Clank PS4 soundtrack in 2016.

Okay guys, I finally did it! I updated the soundtrack. The changes include:

Replacing all the FLAC-converted OST tracks with FLAC-originating versions for higher quality
Upped the volume of Aku Aku Invincibility. I had it on the timeline layer associated with OST tracks which meant it was quietened a bit, so I put it on the proper one and re-rendered it so that it's at the correct volume.
Re-instating the Crash 1 Epilogue track, bringing the track total to 101
Actually having the proper Tomb Wader Death Trap music rather than a repeat of the High Time Death Trap track.
For consistency, these changes also apply to the MP3 version (although in the case of the FLAC changes this should only slightly improve the audio quality).

It looks like the MP3 version's still the same one from last time: can you update the link to include the one with the new changes?

Thanks!

Thank you so much for a full soundtrack!

Thanks for providing this soundtrack!

I've wondering if you could provide a AAC (.m4a) rip? I've got itunes, and I would rather have a proper version in that format.

Unfortunately I just didn't make it that way. You'd have to convert the files to that format yourself, which isn't exactly ideal I'm sure.
