Underworld was originally in Rez video game
 

So I was casually listening to the latest 8-4 Play podcast ( 8-4 Play 6/17/2011: CHILD OF MIZUGUCHI) this morning and found out in an early version of the video game Rez, it was made up of all Underworld music (discussion starts around 5:45)

I wonder if Underworld denied it, or if it was just a temporary soundtrack.

I would love to see/hear this, I can't believe I didn't hear about this before. Anyone else have insight on this?

love the nuxx mix with the boss... shame it wasn't released with uw on it, afterall the entire game was based upon their track name rez...:(

Hmm, I wonder if it's possible to extract the music from the game image? It sounds to me as if they've either recreated a lot of the loops or they've had access to more loops than the iDrum versions of the these tracks had. Could be really interesting for remixers!

Re: Underworld was originally in Rez video game
 

It definitely sounds like recreations at some parts - Rez/Cowgirl in particular.

Word is that, yes, its just parts of the songs, looped.

Underworld and the Game Rez...
 

So, as some of us know, way back when the game Rez was in development, it used music from Underworld for it's areas. It was intended to be part of the final game, but Underworld declined as they didn't want their music in a game where you shoot things.

Well. I have the midi file that contains the instrument patterns for the versions of Cowgirl, Rez, and Born Slippy used in that build... Not the actual samples they used, still working on that, but here... Hope it's useful...

Edit: Sorry, I searched and didn't find another thread...

This is nice !
Can't thank you enough for this !

Re: Underworld was originally in Rez video game
 

And oh wow. Someone posted an old video of mine here... A video I've since put in private mode.

I've hacked the game Rez for two or three years now, so I know it inside out, almost. I can say with certainty that in the final version of Rez, the Born Sippy chord still exists (And is used), and also a half second loop from the song Rez...
