The Ultimate WipEout Soundtrack

[Darkdrium777]

You realize there was a limit of 30 tracks for Pulse yeah? HD might have a limit too.

HD should not have a limit because Super Stardust HD does not have a limit and can access the entire hard drive through the custom soundtrack menu. HD will be able to do the same, since the application is developed by Sony, and can be included in any game. Liverpool doesn't have to program it for HD, it is already done...

Ok I now have the W'O" 64 music tracks, many thanks to lunar (Is the guy really called PC Music? Seems a bit odd... On Wikipedia it says CoLD SToRAGE did those musics...) and I've found a few that were missing from the other games (God's Gift from CoLD SToRAGE (WipEout 2097/XL) and Papua New Guinea from Future Sound of London (WipEout Fusion)). I won't put in the four short tracks by CoLD SToRAGE because they're not really long enough to be worth it (Those tracks are phloem xenon xylem and argon and are less than 40 secs (WipEout 2097/XL)). All that is left to do is some ID3 editing and it should be complete.

EDIT: I believe my collection is complete, so if anyone wants it send me a PM (It's 642MB though) [Offer removed, do not send PM about it anymore]
And if you see anything missing, please tell me so I can find it and add it

Note: I have left those labeled as made by PC Music as is, so until you tell me it is actually CoLD SToRAGE who did them it will be left that way.

I'm not sure if I'm completely down with the idea of swapping unpaid for music en masse like this (I'm too old and probably too square - still have a vinyl collection all paid for and very much still in use).

However, you have inspired me to rip the music from my Wipeout and Wipeout 2097 discs for use with Wipeout HD.

Question: is there anything I will need to do to get the music off the original discs, for instance re-encoding the music?

[Rapier Racer]

Nah all the PS1 Wipeout Disks work like a CD.

[piper999]

Hang on - I just realised that if you own all the Wipeout games then swapping the soundtrack in MP3 format probably has no legal issues.

I own all the games except Pulse but I think I'll look into ripping the first two games myself as an exercise to keep me occupied while I wait for HD to be released.

Nah all the PS1 Wipeout Disks work like a CD.

Cheers! I know what I'll be doing when I get home from work now.

The only "not so legal" things I might have done to get it together is go to Galbadia Hotel to get the sounds from Wipeout 3, Wipeout Fusion and Wipeout XL/2097. Then again, a lot of Xl/2097 is free because made by CoLD SToRAGE, so that's very little songs left from those games.
Also it might be a very shallow excuse but since this music is old compared to what the artists do right now, they most definitely don't count on these sales to help them make a living... 'Course you can always buy the CD if you want to though, but I can't get them CDs since most if not all WipEout music artists are from the United Kingdom (And I live in Canada as my handy portable profile says). Future Sound of London comes to my mind as the one worth getting but impossible to find at a HMV here... :/

[Rapier Racer]

It's not the artists counting on sales of old music to help them make a living that get into hysterics, at least I think not, seems more like its the label that owns the copyright.

[swift killer]

^^^^^^ yes they will order it in for you if you ask..... that's how I finally got hold of WO3 SE last year!

Future Sound of London comes to my mind as the one worth getting but impossible to find at a HMV here... :/

Future Sound of London you won't really find in shops outside Europe that easily, here in the UK HMV still stock all their albums in store, I think you might be better off buying online, also, not ALL their music is like what you hear from them in WipEout, they have always been making more chillout music.

Bit of useless info: if you remember the remix 'Humanoid' from Fusion by 'Stakker', it's worth knowing that 'Stakker' is in actual fact FSOL using another alias.
