Being a huge fan of the Spyro games and the music (particularly Stewart Copeland's work), I recently completely reripped these after finding my previous rips unsatisfactory. I think they are the most complete versions you will come across. They are encoded to MP3 using LAME on the Slow setting at -V0.


For the first three PS1 games, the music was converted from the .XA files on the game discs, and resampled from 37.1khz to 44.1khz
Enter the Dragonfly was converted from the ADPCM files on the PS2 disc
A Hero's Tail was converted from the original GameCube audio files and resampled from 32khz to 44.1khz


The files' password is at the bottom of this post.

SPYRO 2: RIPTO'S RAGE (2CDs)
MUSIC BY STEWART COPELAND

The European release encoded all the music to mono, to make way for other spoken languages. I ripped the majority of music from the NTSC disc, which was in stereo. The EU disc contained some completely different alternate mixes (for example, the Ripto boss fight has no operatic voice in the EU version, whilst the US edition does). There was also some unused music on the EU disc to include, along with two early demo versions of Skelos Badlands and Sunny Beach from another source that were not included in the game.

SPYRO: YEAR OF THE DRAGON (2CDs)
MUSIC BY STEWART COPELAND

The EU release once again had the music in mono, to make way for other spoken languages. It also dropped a number of tracks to make even more space available, and thus some tracks were used more than once in the EU version (so some fans never got to hear some of the original music in their native territories). I ripped the music from the NTSC disc, which was complete and in stereo.

MUSIC BY GAME AUDIO LTD.

British company Game Audio Ltd. composed the music to A Hero's Tail. Whilst making it their own, there are some lovely Copeland homages in there (the acoustic guitar in particular). The music is great, and does justice to the Spyro musical legacy; Game Audio's reinvented Spyro theme is a lovely little tune, wholly their own but very Spyro-esque.

Delicious!

Thank you!

Didnt know you were a fan, mate!

I'm an old Police fan from way back.

The rock elements are definitely here, especially in Spyro 1.

quick question about the spyro: year of the dragon rip. are there some songs that have skippin in them like i keep noticin in other rips i've been findin? the most notable for me are "Spooky Swamp" and "Super Bonus Round".

I'd say no, no skipping or clicks or anything that I remember. If you do spot any, let me know.

i wont be able to let u know now, cause the site is bein a pain with a really slow speed and it does not normally do that. im not waitin 7 hrs for one download.

Thank you VERY much for the Spyro 3 Rip, being an EU player, I never did get to hear the proper themes to the levels as they were meant to sound, now I guess I can!

Thanks again.

takehiro, i just downloaded the spyro 3 soundtrack. ill give a review on it in moments.

Review: This is excellent. My long years of lookin for a proper rip of this particular soundtrack have finally come to a close. Great work.

Reviewer's score - 10/10

Thanks very much, my friend!

.

They are tagged, all my stuff always is. Im looking at them right now in WinAmp. Maybe your playback software doesnt support the ID tags?

no, it does. my mp3 player confirmed it. back to a perfect 10 it goes.

I tag all my stuff in the same way, including all the stuff I post here, and no one ever mentions tagging issues. Even when I convert the FLACs to MP3 for iTunes, they still all show up.

u have a later version of windows. i only have XP. that could be why.:p

I could be wrong but Windows does not have any effect on ID3 tags. Its firmly a software thing.

maybe it was when i converted flac to wav then to mp3. oh well. no use complainin now.

Actually that is the reason - WAVs only store basic ID tag info. If you converted direct to MP3 the tags would be retained. I recommend dbPowerAmp for such tasks. Its great! Or FLAC have their own frontend app, which is free.

lesson learned. im still rather new to the whole flac department, but hey, im learnin.

Its not big deal, thats the beauty of a place like this - learning new stuff! Hope you get it sorted.

indeed. i already got it done, so im good for now.

Good man.

hey, dont forget to make seperate threads for these soundtracks per the forum's rules, or u can get in alot of trouble for not doin so.

Thank you very much!

Well done! This is the best Spyro 3 rip I have heard. I can't wait for your rip for Enter the Dragonfly. It is truly diverse (and the game's saving grace). How far along is the rip?

It is truly diverse (and the game's saving grace). How far along is the rip?

Id have to agree. I thought nothing would beat Spyro 2 (or 1, for that matter) but the ETD score is just amazing.

Sadly, I am going to have to start the rip again. I bought the GCN release (as it has less bugs) but the audio is in mono. The PS2 version is in stereo, so I need to buy that.

Wow! xD What an Awe-some thread!!! :D I can't tell you people in words how much I love Spyro music! It's been awhile since I listened to Spyro music...should be promising.
Thank you soo much for making such an Awe-Some Thread!! xD It truly is appreciated. ;)

Thanks for your very kind words. Its nice to hear about fans, and aside from me and my best friend I didnt know anyone else (until I posted this) who loved it :) So you're welcome.

Thanks so much for this dude. Never checked out the 5th game music before so now is my chance. Also the NTSC Spyro 3 thing, just awesome. Thank you.

You're most welcome; I am thrilled at all these comments from fans I never knew existed.

thats only cause Copeland was a genius!

thank you

I finally got it!

I knew something was wrong with Spyro 1 rip: some of the tracks are in mono! And, having owned a different rip for more than a year, I know ALL the game's tracks are in stereo. Examples of tracks in mono: Gnasty's Loot and Credits.

I finally got it! I knew something was wrong with Spyro 1 rip: some of the tracks are in mono!

Yep, exactly as they are on the original XA files on the NTSC disc. Congratulations.

All you have done via PM -- and now here -- is proclaim how your new TV makes the music sound better than these rips, and how you have had a better rip for over a year. If my work does not impress you, that's fine. No one is making you download it and no one says you have to like it. But seriously, why try and find fault in something a lot of other people are enjoying? What are you trying to prove?

I guess I proved to myself that to get something right, you got to do it yourself.

How... do I rip the music? I am a 100% n00b, but, given the situation, I am willing to learn.

Thank you very much for these I have been trying to get Spyro music for a long time now and only was able to get a little until now!

Thanks man :)

There aren't any at the moment.

I removed them after Megaupload went down, so as I said I will reupload them :)

You're the man. I just finished replaying the first and realized how amazing the soundtrack is... and in FLAC is fantastic!

I'll be uploading VBR-0 files for now. I dont wish to waste bandwidth uploading huge files that may get taken down again. Fear not, though: the XA files have a cut-off around 18khz, and are of quite a narrow stereo width, so VBR-0 encoding will give you full frequency response with -- very likely -- no noticable loss of quality.

An audiophile like me will notice. Also, could you just upload the .xa files? I would convert them into a lossless format.

AND ONE MORE THING: what do you use to rip your PS1 & PS2 games? Because I want to do that myself.

Spyro 1, 2, 3 and the promo of 4 all reupped.

Well thanks dude :)

Consider this a thank you:
http://www.4shared.com/music/k0YA9-6B/Tyson_Credits.html

And if it ISN'T too much trouble, could you tell me how to rip the .xa files??

OP, you are my HERO! I can't thank you enough for this, honestly. :D Looking forward to Enter the Dragonfly -- Cloud 9 is absolutely insane!

I like Honey Marsh the best :)

Just curious - is there any particular reason you opted for VBR instead of CBR/320kbps?

In short, 320k wastes disk space. Depending on the complexity of the source (stereo image, frequency response), not every frame needs to be encoded with 320kbps to replicate the best sound quality.

Take Summer Forest, for example. Its ambient music, and most of the frequencies are below the 5khz range or so, with some bleed/extra sounds in the 8-12khz range. Anything above that is mostly "air" or harmonic frequencies at a very low volume. Giving 320kb to these frequencies is a waste of time - the VBR encoding on this particular file encodes nothing above 16khz because there is nothing there, instead using the bits to encode all the frequencies below that level.

However, something like Fireworks Factory has a much more complex signal. There's more instrumentation and a mix of sounds. The VBR encoding on this file encodes the signal right up to 19khz (approximately) on both channels - which is the cut off of the original source (the XA files were encoded at a sampling frequency of something odd like 38.5khz). So audibly, the encode is pretty much lossless (although there will always be those who claim to hear a difference).

You could encode all the files at 320kbps and they will sound the same as the VBR-0 encodes - but those 320kb used every second to make to the MP3 file will be encoding "useless" data in some tracks, and thus taking up extra room on your hard disk.

In short, its generally agreed that LAME VBR-0 gives the highest sound quality whilst not eating up disk space. It can encode right up to 20khz, whilst some non-LAME codecs cut off at 16khz at 320kbps CBR. So to be safe, I always use LAME and always VBR-0.

(I may well have made some mistakes but to the best of my knowledge, what I said is generally correct I think!)

Fair enough. All my music is encoded at 320kbps, I suppose because I like things coherent and consistent, and because mp3s are simple and are compatible with almost anything. Plus they look nice and tidy on the spectrogram. Disk space isn't much of an issue for me.

Are you saying these files sound exactly the same as they would have if you encoded them at 320kbps?

VBR MP3s are just as compatible. I use them on my iPhone as I can fit more albums on than I could using 320k - since both encodes would sound the same :)

Oh, I know. All mp3s are the same in terms of compatibility, I was merely explaining why they were my format of choice. Awesome. Thanks again buddy. :)

I used to use 320k all the time but figured I needed the extra space. I post things here in 320k generally as people seem to prefer it. But in cases like this, where the files were from a compressed source, sometimes with a narrow stereo image and varying quality, I'll use VBR. But you are most welcome :)

Hey KaFaraqGatri thank you very much for the work you put in this spyro soundtracks, it is about time someone put the love and care copelands's work deserves :-) I was wondering when you are going to upload ETD and Spyro 5

ETD will be a while but Spyro 5 should be soon :)
Thanks for your kind words.

ETD will be a while but Spyro 5 should be soon :)

I asked you if you could upload the .xa files or teach me how to extract them myself. You still haven't replied.

I promise to share anything Copeland you wish for that.

ETD will be a while but Spyro 5 should be soon :)
Thanks for your kind words.

I'm curious about how you're going to rip the EtD audio. I've been experimenting myself and it seems impossible. Are you going to record the music rather than rip it?

He SOMEHOW managed to rip the audio from Hero's Tail.

KaFaraqGatri, I wonder if you could help me.

I have all three games ripped to my computer and want to have a go at extracting the music myself. I have managed to extract the .STR files with MagicISO but literally nothing will read them properly. I've tried VGMToolBox, PSMPlay, PsxMC, PSound, you name it. PsxMC, PSMPlay and PSound don't seem to recognise the .STR files at all, where as VGMToolBox will scan the files but find nothing. I have followed various tutorials on how to do this but can't seem to bypass this part. What am I doing wrong here? Am I missing some sort of necessary component?

Thanks.

EDIT: Error codes:

PSMPlay - "The File Format is unsupported. (CODE = 00000000)"

PsxMC - "Plug-in which can process a file'C:\Users\-\Desktop\MUSIC1.STR' was undetectable."

PSound - "Unrecognized file format. Do you want to scan this file?" (I scan the file, it finds nothing...)

Apologies not needed, you didn't clog anything up!!! :)

Could you please upload these to another site which doesn't have download restrictions such as MediaFire.com. I could download the first album but when I go to download the 2nd album it says I need to wait over 2 hour before I can download! I tried changing my ip address to get round it but it didn't work.

Whether it is money, time, or lost opportunity; you must pay something.

I have a question.

I know the PAL version of Spyro The Dragon contains 7 tracks that aren't present on the NTSC version, but does the NTSC version contain any tracks that aren't on the PAL version?

As far as I remember, no. Its the other way round, the PAL one has more unused tracks, IIRC.

So there's no musical content present on the NTSC version that ISN'T on the PAL version? So the PAL version basically has it all?

In the case of the first game, yes.

Oh, I know. Don't even talk to me about the PAL version of Year of The Dragon. :-P

Thanks for the info!

Haha, a travesty indeed!

Well, XAplay does not rip. Tried this XAEX - Utilities - Software - QuickJump Downloads (http://dl.qj.net/software/utilities/xaex.html) but the program automatically closes the second I open it.

Hey, KaFaraqGatri, any chance you could upload the ETD promo CD in lossless?

Awesome, man! Thanks a lot!!!!!

This is great, thanks a lot!

Are you working on uploading the rest?

Yes, I will be putting the others up in time.

All links currently dead... :<

I'll reup.

I just wanted to say thank you for whenever you reupload the music. I've been looking for a good, complete, noncorrupted download of Spyro 3 and I hope that I can find them with this download.

It's not like I did not provide you with one or anything...

New links posted.

u won't be disappointed. i downloaded it and it's great. no skipping in some songs from previous downloads from elsewhere. Spyro 1, however...not any better than gh.ffshrine.org's rip, unfortunately.

I'm a bit new, I downloaded the Spyro 2 soundtrack and I don't know the password for the .zips, could you elaborate on that for me please?

The password is Copeland (its at the very bottom of the first post).

Thanks very much

Thanks, man. Downloading now. Got the first three already from ********* but hoping these'll be better quality!

Thank you for these, I love Stewart Copeland's music and these are tremendous.

You're welcome. I too love his music!

Just in case anyone is wondering, I will soon be doing the Spyro 4 and Spyro 5 2CD rips and will be posting them here, making my collection complete. It will be a few weeks minimum but for those waiting, thank you for your patience.

Sir... kind sir... could you please share with me the secrets of ripping a PS2 game? I would of course appreciate your effort, but I would very much prefer doing this myself.

yeah that would be nice man i want to rip ratchet and clank and jak 2

hey kafarang still havent forgot about you and your great work hopefully youre almost done with spyro 4 and spyro 5

Have you been working on the remaining Spyro gamerips yet?

Yes kafarangn lol you know I'm a fan I've been on this thread so many times lol

can't wait for the next spyros music get done

Hi could you reupload these soundtracks by any chance please?

Looking forward to it, the Spyro soundtracks are easily my favorite game soundtracks. Any chance we'll see a flac rip of these?

New links added for those scores I have available.

Thank you for taking the time to reupload these. Do you have Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly or are you still working on it.

Thank you, and you're welcome. I had to abandon two different attempts on ETD but I do plan on revising it again in time. Sorry about that.

KaFaraqGatri, I just wanted to let you know that you're my new favourite person right now! I haven't played the first 3 Spyro games in around 8-9 years, and downloading the Spyro 1, 2 and 3 soundtracks brought happy, nostalgic tears to my eyes, thank you so much! And it's interesting to see all these tracks I had no idea existed! I grew upwith the European releases so these are all a real treat! Thanks so much again!

Hey Ollie, thanks for your kind words :) I still play these games, even though the earliest one is like 15 years old now! I hope I can always keep playing em.

I went out and bought new copies this Christmas just because I had some money and because they're my childhood. They're like perfectly new CD's too :). Then I learned how to rip the Spyro music myself, I think I have more tracks than you actually :p. The only one's I am missing are from the Demo CD's.

Brand new sealed copies are expensive - the trilogy box set on Amazon is hundreds of bucks last time I checked!

I got mine on eBay for 50 something. It came no scratches on the CD's at all. Only, the CD cases were cracked but who cares, I got new ones anyways. And the box it came in was bent, but I don't mind that.

Oh, and I've come to the conclusion that the Aquaria Towers/Hurricos remix isn't real..

Hey KaFaraqGatri, don't mean to sound pushy or anything, but how is the progress on Enter the Dragonfly and A Hero's Tail going? If it's ok to ask.

I've uploaded my original rip of A Hero's Tail. I am not 100% happy with it, but it's all I have at this time.

Thank you for Spyro 5 tracks, a nice upgrade. Now I can delete some bad quality tracks and add some tracks that I haven't heard! Can't wait for Spyro 4 dude!

Although I am grateful for Spyro 5, I will ask again how you managed to rip a PS2 game. I want to learn that.

I think it might just be a case of turning the SFX off and recording the music from the game using PS2-PC recording hardware then converting it to MP3, I could be wrong. If only PS2 games were as easy to rip music files from as the PS1 discs ^^;

1) Why would I convert anything to MP3? I don't hate quality.
2) And yet a french guy managed to rip the entire Ratchet and Clank series, including an unused song from 3.

Oh my, sorry to have upset you! I didn't know those two points, ever so sorry!

My complete rip of Spyro 4: Enter the Dragonfly includes OST songs:

Thread 130875

Thank you for these Soundtracks! I love Spyro and I haven't played it in years. But when I try to extract the files it says I need a password. I looked back through here and you said it was Copeland so I tried that but to no avail. Do you think you could help me please? Thank you.

its at the bottom of the first post.

I never had a chance to say thank you. I saw the password I just missed it due to my excitement. But do you know if Spyro: A Hero's Tail wil be put back up? I went to the link and it says it has been removed because it hasn't been accessed in 60 days. Thank you for your time I really appreciate it.

I will try to get round to this, yeah. If I forget, remind me!

Alright cool I gotcha. :)

And I also forgot to mention that I've noticed that the link for Spyro: Enter The Dragon Fly is TBA. Is this something else you're going to work on as well? Just wondering thank you.

Hello! Been searching all over for a Year Of The Dragon download, and this is the most promising one I've found. Could you possibly re-up? :)

Sure, will do.

Say just reminding you that Spyro A Heroes Tail is still down and that it would be great if you could put it back up. Thanks! :)

Hey Gatri, I see Spyros 1, 2 & 3 are down, chance of a reupload if you can find the time?

I can reup them all, sure.

All files reupped.

Any chance you could upload it to a different file host?

Thanks for sharing these! Being looking for ages :)

Thank you for sharing! I should probably check out The Police soon since I enjoy Stewart Copeland's Spyro music so much.

Holy SH*T!!! Thank you thank you soooo much for this! I had this long ago, but my hard drive crashed and it was a mono version.... Anyways, thanks for the upload

This is the greatest thing. Thank you OP for all the trouble, I'll be over here now hyperventilating in nostalgic joy.

I'll join ya :)

Hey Gatri, remember when I told you I had some friends who had got some previously unheard Spyro tracks and didn't have enough solid proof? Well I was on a mission finding Ryan Beveridge's contributions to the Spyro games, and I stumbled across this, the tracks can be found in the 'Spyro Rank 2' section, tracks 6, 10 & 11, don't know if you'll count these as Spyro tracks, but they were released by Stewart Copeland and certainly sound Spyro-esque!

Hey I am wondering, why doesn't the link for AHT work?

EDIT---Nevermind. The link for AHT seems to be working fine now. Thanks again.

Many thanks for your efforts on this one KaFaraqGatri! Unfortunately I am also having a problem with Spyro: A Heroes Tail. Mega keeps replying with "temporary error". Hopefully you can check out that last link. AGAIN...thanks so much for this collection! Cheers!

You are my new most favorite person in the world. Not only do these collections contain the unused songs (and songs that WEREN'T unused, yet still for some reason have been hard to find), but they also are better quality and don't have the skipping the other torrents floating around have. I've been dealing with that for three years now. Thank you so much for these uploads.

Thank you. It is always nice to know others share my passion for these soundtracks. I wish a label would release them!

I grew up on the Spyro games, and Stewart Copeland has been my man ever since. Did you know he composed the theme song for the Amanda Show? And it has samples from Wizard Peak in it!

Perhaps the biggest "influence" of his Spyro music in another score is this. Check out from around 3:40 onwards!

Err- never mind. I didn't realize where it was located. Never mind!

Thank you finally. Spyro 2's Sountrack kept the game memorable for me. I don't play any new spryo games. I prefer this on psp and that is all.

Thank you so much <3 I've been looking for A Hero's Tail's Soundtrack for AGES. Finally my collection is complete... mwah hah hah :3

Holy fuck.......

Thanks!!. And a hug for Spyro!

Oh my GOD these are fantastic quality for me you are AWESOME to keep those links still up, thank you so much! <3 I loved this series and been looking for the other games' soundtracks for ages.

You're welcome :) It's always nice to find someone as passionate about the series as I am.

Hey Spyro fans, just wanted to say that there is a new update coming soon.

Thanks :)

Spyro 3 seems to be down. Do you mind re uploading?

Will do.

Spyro 3 seems to be taken down again, or still.

Sorry for the delay; I will look into this as soon as I can!

Yeah please, need Spyro 3 :D But many thanks for your great job !

Still anything ? :/

I would like to see a re-upload of Year of the Dragon please.

Sorry for the lack of updates. The main post has now been fully revamped with brand new links :)

Thanks so much for these.

Just so you know the music for A Hero's Tail is specifically composed by Guy Cockcroft & Steve Duckworth (found out through the game's credits).

Thank you!

thanks

This has been exactly what I've been looking for, thank you so much!!

Sooooo great, thank you !!

Much obliged, OP! Takes me right back to my childhood years.

Thanks a lot!
