Well guys Im proud to say after a whole night and a whole day of work, i can finally bring you the full complete line in rip of the darkness with all gamemusic intact, i know my last two versions were missing music, but here is the most finale version of the ost, until someone can crack the xbox360 xma format, this will substitute for the gamerip. but its all here, stealth tracks,action tracks, demon versions of the action and stealth tracks. yep this certainly is the whole enchalada of this wonderful game score!!. the only music impossible to get at the moment is the tunnel chase which is wondeful, jenny's death scene and the tank drivethru of the no mans land. but other than that don't let that detour you, because this score blows anyone anyway!!!

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!
OrangeC, I Salute You.

THANK YOU!!!

Is part 3 working for anyone else? Every time I start it, it just says "download completed", and the file is 0KB.

OrangeC, thank you so much!
You have all my admiration for the hard work you invested
in bringing us THE DARKNESS in a new complete and definitive version.
Absolutely fantastic job!
Greetings.

Orange, Thank UUUUUUU!!!! :) :) :) :)

THANK YOU!!!

Btw, what does "Dmn" stand for?

It stands for demon, when you have the demon enabled.

"Snk" is sneak

and "Act" is action.

Ah, I see :D

Hope you guys enjoy it because i spent all of the previous night and yesterday all day to complete this.

Jesus

Jesus is right, time consuming as hell. but im in love with the score.

For me is working perfectly.

Thank you very much OrangeC for the wonderful job you made and sure you'll make in this place.

if you did this to proove that you're the best ripper on this board you've done it :D once again thanks heaps, the last 2 rips of this game you did are awesome and i listen to it all the time, i can't wait to hear the new music you added :D cheers once again :P

Does anyone know where i can find PDF formats of the Darkness comic books online, starting with vol 1. I would like to read them while listening to the score.

Hey, OrangeC!

Thanks for the rip! You'll find all the issues from The Darkness, including the crossovers here (http://www.kaskus.us/showthread.php?p=25120943)

Enjoy!

Oh, I almost forgot: what's the difference between this rip you've put on this thread and the from this one:

?

Thanks in advance, dude! You rock!

I can answer that.... the one I have uploaded there was OrangeC's previous rip of The Darkness... I just mirrored it in that thread. The version here is the updated, final version of his rip. I'm actually taking the links down from my thread now, since that version is now obsolete. Unless, of course, OrangeC would like me to refrain from mirroring his rip.

You can mirror this rip if ya want, keeps the links alive and the customers happy.

I found the previous version pretty different from this one! I couldn't find the song entitled as The Darkness Main Theme in this later release though, and the volumes are a bit lower, don't you think? Has the process to rip this pack been different from the way you did to rip the previous version? Does this new pack have all of the previous pack songs??? I'm still a lil' bit confused since I haven't get the whole differences between both of 'em.

To be honest, I don't know the game, but you guys made me curious. I will check the music, anyway thanks for the work, OrangeC!

Okay first off this version has the main theme but it is a mix suite that plays in the main menu. the other main theme from the previous version i just ripped it off of youtube, which was my mistake because its not actually part of the rip. But this main theme menu mix is just as good.

And yes the volume is not so high because the last rip i did with a diffrent sound card, a rather crappy sound card. but this rip is with x-fi and the volume is normal. its not really that low that you have to turn your volume all the way up.

I liked it though, dude! I wasn't complaining about anything, don't get mad on me... =) I think I had expressed myself in a bad way, sorry.
Just wanted to know which of the rips I should consider as an "official" release taken from the games since a few tunes were different from each other.

Thanks for the explanation anyway! =)

Nah i wasn't mad at all mate.O:]

Hey man, great soundtrack, can't thank you enough. I just want to point out to ya that there are some tracks you didn't include. Two to be specific: The Jazzy tune from the white fish pool hall, and the Harmonica number the soldier in the sewers plays

Just a question: why didn't you put them in?

The whitefish pool hall jazz plays at the end credits. the soldiers harmonica tune i couldn't get it because it was on the same tracks of the sound sfx.

Ok, then! =)

I haven't played the game yet, so I have nothing to complain about the soundtrack. By the way, I still gotta buy a Playstation 3... =/

Is the one you ripped from youtube also in the version 3.0 with another title or inside the inner part of one of the different suits from the main theme?

No the one from youtube is not, But a more longer version is played in the main menu which i ripped and it is the very first track.

GueeuehehahashshshHSHSHHahahahahahhahaHAHAHAHAHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

good music.

Gustaf grefberg is a great composer, but soo underrated. I like his music system, he does it in most of his games.

Great job man. Thanks a ton.

Thanks m8.

Just for giggles, here is a picture of gustaf grefberg the main composer of this awesome score.

thanks alot, youre my hero <3

Thx alot for all your hard work man, thank you alot!

Yup Yup! Very VERY Nice!!!! dude once again you r the master

He looks like he would compose something like this.

INDUSTRIAL-METAL-SINGER-HAIR-GO!

Yes gustaf grefberg is awesome!!

I just wish the sfx were isolated from the cutcenes like the intro and the tank ride in the otherworld.

is this orchestrated?

Better!!

Its a combo of orchestra/chior/heavy percussion/ and fast speed metal

DOWNLOAD IT NAO!!

hey orange, this is a great game with great music but i got a question. which part has the music thats kinda called "the final shootout" cuz thats my fav tune. tnx :D

Like most of your rips, this is a wonderful addition to my music folder. Sure, I prefer version two's Darkness Theme over this one, but overall, this is a wonderful soundtrack.

hey orange, this is a great game with great music but i got a question. which part has the music thats kinda called "the final shootout" cuz thats my fav tune. tnx :D

In this version i renamed it to mansion shootout.

In this version i renamed it to mansion shootout.

GREATEST TRACK!!!

Ok, I'm done. :-)

You can never be done, its better for this thread to be bumped a million times because this ost is simply great!!

BTW i personally enjoy chinatown battle (dmn Act) at the 1:56 mark, fucking great guitar riff right there.

I'd have to say that I enjoy Chasing Shrote (Dmn Act) just as well... fuckin' awesome. Then again, every track is epic.

And yes, I did just post in this thread because it wasn't on the first page. :-D

Oh....your...god....

This is awesome. I've been looking for this for quite a while. I've got the main menu music from somewhere, but I couldn't find anything else from the score. This game put me onto The Duskfall and eating hearts. A question though...the files are in 5...6 (I can't be assed going back a page) rar files. Are the music files inside those? Does it need to all be downloaded to oppen it? And are they actual music files, or code?

Download all of them. Then just unzip the first one, and it does the rest itself. And they are actual music files.

Wow, I'm totally blown away, thank you so much OrangeC!

Sweet. I got the first file, will get the rest as soon as I can. The Darkness music is awesome.

which part has "Jenny's Theme" in it?

Great Soundtrack, great rip. Still wondering how the heck Gustaf tracks this stuff? Anyone know what his sequencing set-up is? Does he actually use real guitars or does he have some sort of magical crunchy-guitar sample library not available to us mortals?

Lastly, for Orange. I was wondering why some of the songs (mostly the attack music) abruptly end? Is this a function of ripping them? Is this something that can be addressed?

Anyways, thank you so much for all the effort, it really paid off.

Its because its intended to loop at the end.

And yes gustaf does use real guitars, actually he has sessions with people playing drums and guitar, then i think he takes those essions recordings and puts them over his sampled composed stuff, but yes this score is pretty similiar to his other sutff as far as the composition goes.

I figured it was because of a loop point, but it seems to cut out (for most of the action tracks) just a hair shy of completing whatever 4-bar is meant to complete the loop. No worries.

Also, the drums must be programmed (sounds just like a DKFH Superior Kit to me) and it sounds like he's got a lot of sampled guitar elements in with some live elements (he most likely reshapes live guitar performances to hit precise points in his sequencer).

Damn i would really like to know what sequencer he uses, because all action track variations are basically the same, track, except they are composed differently.

Well, based on that screenshot of the man himself on page 2, it looks like he uses Cubase, or it might be a reconfigured Logic, but those screens don't look Mac to me so I'd lean towards Cubase :)

You're right about the tracks all being variations of the same "get-up". Sounds like he just introduces double-time and half-time variations, but it's rediculously well sequenced. Just listening to the drums, I'd imagine that those are the first part that he sequences. It's all chord-based music, there's not really any lead-line (horns, guitar, strings...) that develop a lead. I love some of his chord changes, though.

Is there any way (I know you've done so much already, and thank you) that you could rip that "Mansion Massacre (Dmn Act)" again but this time let it go past the loop point. It cuts out well before that final drum fill has a chance to resolve itself. I can re-edit the track so that it finalizes a little better if you want.

Well what im planning on doing is rerecording all the action tracks and this time merging them into suites, so it has the stealth variations and the action variations into one mp3 file with no disturbances, then fade out at the end. Because if i just merge them now its still gonna be missing some loop points and its gonna disturb the flow.

Another thing is that i have directly ripped the darkness music files off of the 360 but the problem is the files are in XMA format and that curently has no codec. but im waiting until xma in windows is supported in there lates xausio2 release.

Then its gonna be better.

That's what I did. Made a 22+ minute track with crossfades, hits and swish endings (thanks Audiomachine :)), and created some atmosphere in-between-tracks by combining several of the tracks together ("Trinity Cemetary", Jenny's Theme", and "Fulton Street Station"... dicing and splicing it all), and then gave it a slight db boost. Sounds pretty good but there are still a few problems with the loop points not quite being resolved that I kind of hide with effects.

Anyways, thanks again.

Can you somehow upload your tracks that you did? im interested in hearing them.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZKWDREDU

Here ya go. I figured I'd give it a more solid effort at some later point when I've got slightly better endpoints to recut :)

Thanks man.

Another peice of music that i really liked was the tunnel chase intro and the tank ride music, but those were mixed in with the sfx and when i turn down the sfx the music goes down too, leaving only silence.

Well, If you could see your way to re-ripping all four "Mansion Massacre" tracks so that they go beyond 6min, I think that I can effectively reconstitute them into a complete piece with a better beginning and a much better ending (we'll just borrow bits and pieces from other tracks :) as well as a bit of "magicks").

yeah man i will.

what program can I use to listen to .xma files?

So far XMA 360 audio files are unplayable or unconverterable right now, the only way to convert these is if you have the tool called: XMAencode.exe but thats part of the xbox360 XDK (dev Kit) and you need a license from microsoft to use them.

Do you have the darkness xmafiles on your hard drive also?

Hell no lol, im not an XB person, I don't even have a 360. I love the soundtrack and since I couldn't get it off PS3 I figured someone who had a 360 could get it.

Oh okay then lol.

Well i have the most complete version of the xma files off the darkness, so once i convert these if i ever acquire that tool i would post it here, the one i have is just a recorded version.

The Files have been removed from the site..Is there any other way to get them ??

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZKWDREDU

Here ya go. I figured I'd give it a more solid effort at some later point when I've got slightly better endpoints to recut :)

Thanx for this =)

Im currently fixing a few glitches in this score and have renamed some tracks and fixed more stuff, i will reupload to megaupload soon.

Argh, dammit, OrangeC!

I had almost finished re-uploading what I thought was the final version... *shakes fist* Damn you for being so awesome.

lawlz yep, but the real final version is where i final be able to convert the XMA files.

Yes, well... until that day comes, I suppose I will be forced to keep updating my links every time you change something. *shakes fist again*

Im gonna include bonus tracks from other sources like the main theme and jenny's full theme which is not that great quality for some reason but it will do.

I even included all cinematics especially the end where jackie and jenny are on the bench for you tear jerkers out there, goddamn paulie, killng my girlfriends.

Yeah... the ending was a bit sad, and kinda made me angry. I was hoping for something a little more... optimistic.

Phew finished the revamp of 3.0, included with bonus tracks its about a whopping 5hours of music.

Will start uploading tonight.

THANK you for this, orange. Fantastic work, as always.

How's the revamp version coming along?

Its finished, haven't had time to reup though.

Okay. Hope you'll do it soon though:D This music is really awesome..

thx man! i havent played the game, but the music is astoundingly great.

The game is alright, could of been longer, but i swear Gustaf grefberg should of won an award for this games score, I turned into a fan of his the minute i listened to this score, his riddicks is great but this is his staple, if he keeps making osts like this that awesome than i will keep buying starbreeze games to show support.

I have a question. I am trying to download Part 1 and it says it's having trouble reading the file. When I was in the other thread WinRAR couldn't do anything because there weren't any files to extract. What am I doing wrong?

You have to download all 7 for this to work.

I love you for this, I could just kiss you! lol Thanks so much for this!
I'd been looking all over the 'net for this score ever since I started playing the game. This is an amazing score. Again thanks so much!

Hey OrangeC, thank you for all this music. I think I remember a couple months back you said you might rip some of the Mike Patton darkness dialogue from the game. Did you ever get around to doing that? I really hope so, because for me, Mike Patton made this game.

i have a problem...i can download only 24kb for each file and my getright tell me that there is no file available.someone could help me?
thanks

Will start uploading Version 3.5 of the darkness right now.

OHH i love that GAME sooooo much! hope the sequel will be great :) and the soundtrack is amazzzzing! <3 thank you very much for uploading!

This is worth waiting for the reupload, this game had some good music.

can you re-upload it to media fire plz..??

Have someone the End Credits in WAVE or something?
I deleted it. My fault. :( Or can maybe just reupload this whole thing?
Thank you very much! :)

Does anyone have a rip of the game dialog? All I want is the Darkness voice parts, but my attempts to rip it myself have been unsuccessful. I have the ISO and the tools for extraction, but the XMA files are not extracting or even revealing any ogg info. Thanks.
