It's been fun.

Thank you all for your support.

Due to some personal circumstances, I can no longer keep this updated.

Once again, thank you all!!

very nice art, well done

this is godlike!
THAAAAAAANKS!

Was the music really different between systems?

Artwork looks pretty Bitchin' btw.

Thanks! The artwork is great, too.

For Dinosaur Hunter and Turok 2, yes, the music is very different from the PC and the n64.

Thank you!!! :D

The Turok Reboot is missing.

The Turok Reboot is missing.

Don't ask me about that one, that is not Turok and will never be Turok.

Turok 2 for the Gameboy is also missing.That had the best soundtrack out of all the Turok games.

Won't bother with that one because that garbage killed the meaning of Turok.
Well, i guess we have to disagree. Though the game was quite boring i was really in love with the adrenaline-pumping, prehistorical soundtrack.

I'll see if I can find the GB version of those games.

Thanks Gerbur! Really enjoyed hearing these soundtracks again over the weekend. :) Oblivion and Evolution wouldn't download for me though. It might just be 4shared acting up temporarily. Thanks again!

my hat goes off to you good sir :P and great work on the front covers ;)

-SNIP-

Thanks for the update!

UPDATE:

Added a download link for the Game Boy Color/Advance version of all of the Turok games (thank you sigma63).

Of nothing friend!=)

Hmm the composer of gameboy version is Alberto Gonzales!=)

Very good thread special Turok!

Very nice thread. But I'll have you know you are missing a rare Turok sound track. I will give you a link to my old request thread for it here (Thread 77301).

*EDIT*

Also I would like to request lossless versions if at all possible, I believe that the PC version has wav format? If I am mistaken please correct me :)

Violence Killer OST is just the T2: SoE PC soundtrack, so no need for me to hunt it down.

As for lossless versions, I believe T2 on FLAC is up for download here (Thread 64743).

Thank you very much, i've been looking for the evolution OST for some time, you're the cooooolest

Awesome! Loved Turok 2 as a teen, so this was a must. Well done.

Thanks. Amazing work.

Wow, great collection. Thank you Gerbur!

Is the music in the Game Boy versions based off the compositions of the original games? If not, you should have "Alberto Jos� Gonz�lez" as the composer for the GB/C games.

Nope, don't think so.

Thank you for pointing out who the composer was.

Actually, I just noticed sigma62 already pointed that out in this thread.

Did you tag them that way? With the wrong composer? If so, maybe add a note to your original post so people can change it.

All of the Turok GB/C games were developed by Bit Managers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_Managers), which Alberto co-founded. He did the music for every one of their games.

Outstanding thread! Where did the artwork come from?

Outstanding thread! Where did the artwork come from?

Made them myself with photoshop.

I'm not a pro with it, but for all the unofficial rips I own, I will make a cover.

Awesome Work indeed. What a Great collection! I love the Old Turok Series! With so much work invested, I sure wish it was encoded in FLAC or some other lossless format! Any chance of this? Or Perhaps with the more musical soundtracks, like the PC Versions. Don't get me wrong I still really appreciate this....
Thanks so much!

I've been looking everywhere for the violence killer ost, but your download link keeps saying the mediafile is set to private so i cant touch it! Can you help me out?

Done, you should now be able to download it.

^ muchas gracias amigo!!

Is the 2008 PC version here?

-SNIP-

Thank you so much for this.

Great stuff Gerbur, thanks very much. I've had a hard time finding the full N64 version of Turok 2's Death Marshes (one of my favorite pieces of N64 music), and here it is! The remix albums are interesting as well.

Please can we get a re up of these....? theres some hot stff in turok 2!

-SNIP-

I just noticed that some of the are work was new so I decided to re-download all of the content again, and I was happily surprised to see some new Albums, new artwork, more complete metadata, and unfortunately for others some missing albums. Thanks for your efforts once again! You are a true artist! The new stuff is amazing especially the orchestra versions!
Anyway I'll voice this once again for those of us with uncompromised music appreciation. Gerbur! Please Consider a FLAC, APE, Applelossless, AIFF, WAV or any Un-Compressed, or Lossless format! After your investing of soooo much time and effort into creating such a complete series of albums, why decide to reduce the quality so far! It seems like a bit of a waste to have in the end a narrowed bandwidth & tinny audio reproduction of such a beloved collection.
If it is a question of downloading/Uploading, Wait times, or the need for some people to compress there music, or what ever, I think most would agree that a choice for a better sounding version is preferable, than not having a choice and simply enduring the lower quality rip's! Now-a-day's it's too easy to compress music if that is desired. After all, in the end it's mostly about the enjoyment in the music! Ultimately, I appreciate all that you've done here, and consider this as a simple suggestion for the next time you consider refining this wonderful collection.

I might be able to make a FLAC release for Dinosaur Hunter (PC and N64), Seeds of Evil (PC and N64), Shadow of Oblivion (N64), Rage Wars and Evolution, but promos and Violence Killer, no, that's out of my control.

Frigg'in Eh! That would be Soooo Soooo Wonderful! I just finished listening to some of your newly encoded Turok Albums and noticed just how much better the 256kbs sounds better over the older 192kbs! But FLAC would be the ultimate! What ever you are able to do would be so appreciated!!! Thanks for thinking about it Gerbur!

amazing thank you my friend

Thank you for sharing these releases! I really appreciate them!

Thanks for this man, great series, i used to play a lot in the N64

UPDATE: Added a new album: Turok 3: Music from the Acclaim Archives.

A little history behind this album.

Found this on an Acclaim files dump, a lot of artworks, concept arts, marketing images and photoshop files are in there.

Artworks and marketing images are in their original format.

These were full tracks used by the marketing team behind Acclaim for promotional purposes.

Cool rips. First N64 rip of Turok 2's "Port of Adia" I've heard which includes the best part of the song at the end (final 30 seconds). Unfortunately, the PC rip ends just before it, meaning it's not a complete cycle of the song before it begins looping.

If you or whoever did the rip could redo the track and include this excellent bit, I'd greatly appreciate it. Also if it's not asking too much, could you do a special extended rip of "Port of Adia" (both N64 and PC versions)? After that really killer part mentioned above, I enjoy letting the song play. I used to sit at the TV and just play the music to this game. A 10–12 minute (whatever it comes out to) continuous flow of this track would be much appreciated.

hey i just noticed your post, there's a 15 minute version of port of adia on youtube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVvCf51i_fA

hope that helps, i love this song :P

Cool. :) That'll satiate my thirst in the meantime; a downloadable version would be awesome. ;D

If you've ever heard of the GXTV, I have one and that's what I would blast this music through in my room when I was 14. Big speakers, tweeters, subwoofer... Excellent.

well if you like i can convert it to mp3 format for you then upload it to my mediafire account then link you to it?

all done, here's the link :) The Port Of Adia (Extended).mp3 (http://www.mediafire.com/?lcn96k9cklcqc4g)

Cool, thanks. :) Just out of curiosity, what did you have the YouTube quality set to when you ripped? I imagine highest, just checking.

yep the highest :)

If you're looking for the "PC version" with the FULL cycle, then it's on the Violience Killer Turok: New Generation soundtrack:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTgWJ8fogPQ

Derp, s'pose I shoulda listened to that soundtrack before commenting. :p Eeeeeexcellent!

UPDATE:

All links should be working fine now, fixed some tracks in the Turok 3 album and added the perfect album artwork for all T2, T3 and Rage Wars albums.

Thanks.

thx for updated re up

Did you have the 2008 Turok game?

brb gonna commit sudoku

tell my family my remains are to be scattered on the sea.

Haters gonna hate :I.

Wow...gotta love Turok! This brings back memories! Thanks! :D

Great work man.

Won't bother with that one because that garbage killed the meaning of Turok. Exactly. The original ones made by Acclaim were the best.

---------- Post added at 02:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:47 PM ----------

The links to Turok 3's soundtrack don't work. They are the .001 and .002 files, which none of my programs I have recoginize it.

I packed that soundtrack with it, which is why none of your programs can open it.

Hey it Seems like ALL of links are down, can you fix that please!

That's right! Turok Evolution is down!

Housekeeping in progress, please stand by.

Amazing work, waiting for the links to go up again. Been looking for these a long time.

Housekeeping is complete, check the OP for updated info.

You sir are a god among men!

I just downloaded a random rip of Turok 2's PC soundtrack from a site

And the quality was awesome... [/sarcasm]

It was high quality MP3 files, with a high sample rate of 24 kHz, and a super high quality bitrate of 56 kbps. No, I didn't miss the '2' before 56. It was actually 56 kbps.

So I'm glad these are much MUCH higher quality. 44100 Hz at around 256 kbps.

One thing I don't get...
Why is "The Death Marshes" on the PC completely different to both the N64 versions, and the Violence Killer Turok: New Generation soundtracks? It sounds pretty much the same as "Warp Gate", except just a bit different.

Can you tell why on Turok 1, and turok rage wars has only one file?, because, has the .001, it should be 2 or more

Can you tell why on Turok 1, and turok rage wars has only one file?, because, has the .001, it sould be 2 or more

mediafire can't open .001 files to scan for possible copyright material.

Don't worry about it, all stuff is in there.

Thanks for being such a nice housekeeper!!! You're great!!!

thank you brah! it is so great to hear music from the first turok game.

Ah! Thank you so Much!

I'm getting errors on all of the archives except Turok: Dinosaur Hunter. I've been through each one 5 times over and the only one that extracts successfully is Turok: Dinosaur Hunter.

Yeah when I first posted I was half awake and being a stupid dumbass but then I tried to extract them with 7Zip and the ones I mentioned wouldn't work.

It turns out Dinosaur Hunter and Rage Wars worked. Turok 2, Turok 3, and Evolution all say they are corrupted.

It must be a problem on your end because I can extract them just fine.

I won't be able to reupload until Saturday noon, so I hope you don't mind waiting.

I guess I must be extracting them wrong? I know 7Zip must be easy to use but I've never used it, but I can keep trying.

Fixed, things should be working now.

Thanks, these soundtracks are very hard to find elsewhere. The techno remixes of the first game are plain awesome (kinda weird that the ost of the 3rd game wasnt just made by Darren mitchell himself)

Btw any idea if the guy still lives and keeps making soundtracks?

Oh he's pretty much alive alright.

This re-arrangement (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tz-QMgIU0B8) was made under his watch.

He didn't compose the music for 3 because he was promoted to lead audio supervisor for Acclaim Austin after Seeds of Evil and Rage Wars were completed.

how did you get those soundtracks for turok 1? i know i recorded the music off the n64 on CASSETTE/MC in the past as a kid :D, i've been looking for AGES as there is no proper release, only 1 cardboard cd i found with few turok songs and few remixes.

Black magic handed down to me by ancient aliens.


Jokes aside, my first experience with ripping game music came from doing the same thing as you as a kid.
As the years passed, I figured how to do "line-in" ripping, where you connect the Audio plugs on the n64's composite A/V cable to your sound-card's Line-in input and use an audio recording software to capture the audio.

I saved these tracks as raw WAV files which I later edited to make them sound like an official work.

You can probably still find my old, out-of-date, craptastic recordings if you look for them, back then I didn't give a shit about audio quality or proper editing, listening to them is a nightmare, to me anyway.

This guy has to be among the best music composers for games, its a shame he never got the recognition he deserved like jasper kidd or akira yamaoka.

Mm, I still have some problems with Turok 3..... :( can you fix it? please! :D

Geez, I really like the pc version of T2 over the n64 but i wonder what were they doing to make the track loop so in such crappy way compared to the n64 track. not to mention the oblivion stage theme is 50 seconds and way behind the n64 variant.
Whats stranger is that the oblivion theme from the first oblivion portal cutscene seems to be missing altogether. What?

thx!

Here is a good remix of Turok: Dinosaur Hunter's Underwater theme.

MASSIVE UPDATE:

Turok 2, Rage Wars and Turok 3 soundtracks have received a complete makeover, be sure to check them out.

They now sound better or you also added a new tracks? I only checked rage wars and T3, and RW has 1 new track but for T3 I cant tell much of a difference on the tracks quality.

thanks very much =) =D

thank you

This collection and artwork is most excellent. I was recently composing my favorite N64 games and FPS games on Favslist.com and remembered Turok. I remember how muched I loved the game and even the music. I saw a video of the first level of Turok 2 and forgot how awesome the Port of Adia music was. Since then, I've been looking to add the OSTs and remixes to my collection. I can't thank you enough for spending the time to make this collection and share it, as well as provide it with a great presentation - Love that artwork.

Thanks.

I don't like Turok soundtrack but i appreciate your hard work starting this thread.Good job and have a good life.Thanks for see people like you in ffshrine xD.

Many thanks for all of this awesome work ! I just wish all of these amazing soundtracks, especially for me for the Seeds of Evil and Rage Wars were available officially (for .flac or something).

I tried to Find the Game Boy Soundtracks for the Turok games (1, 2 and 3) But i couldn't find them, where are the links?

And good Set of Soundtracks, by the way.

Grandiosa M�sica, Thanks A lot.

You are the best person ever, these soundtracks are so awesome.

Turok was a fun game but the soundtracks were the best part, all that bongo beating madness, and the remixes to Dinosaur Hunter have left me mind blown!

Much respect to you good sir!!!

~childhood memories affirmative*. THANK YOUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Just wanted to say thanks for this thread and for getting the Violence Killer soundtrack like I suggested. It's awesome! Slaughter by the River of Souls on the Violence Killer soundtrack is amazing.

I am looking for Turok 2: Seeds Of Evil - The Techno Remixes, if anyone has it. Thanks.

Thank you.

nice post, but lossy format, no way

Nice, thank you !

Thank you!

Could you please udpate the links?

I can upload if the author of this post allows me
I still have all of your release

I can upload if the author of this post allows me

I'd love to get them if you could share with us? (though pity that titles were removed as well at this point)
Thanks.

As an N64 fanboy from day 1 (March 1997 in Spain, though), I have a long relationship with classic Turok.
I didn't arrive to this thread in time, but I'm curious about what exactly it contained. If someone still has a working link to anything or can at least illustrate me, that'd be nice.

hey, it contained all the Turok 1,2,3 and Evolution soundtracks / gamerips for both PC and N64 as well as some remix EPs that were released. also the official Turok 2 OST titled "Violence Killer". and yes, i have them all.

Thank you for sharing!

Where can I find the links?
I understand why you can't keep it updated, but atleast allow someone to share it.
