Mass Effect Trilogy - Extended Galaxy Map Theme (HD)

!! All music by Sam Hulick. Hulick is a great up and coming composer and I urge you to support him in both his VG/film scores and his solo work. This track is created by me out of three original tracks by Sam Hulick!!

I made an extended version of one of Mass Effect's most characteristic themes. Simply sowed the two different versions of the Galaxy Map theme together (ME's Uncharted Worlds and ME2' New Worlds) and added Sam Hulick's track from the Extended Cut OST to it (I Am Alive And I Am Not Alone) in which he purposefully referenced this theme.

All music by Sam Hulick as released in the Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2 and Mass Effect 3 - Extended Cut OST's.

The "Launching probes at random planets for 6 hours" theme.

Mass Effect isn't just a videogame, it's an experience unlike any other.

My cousin made this.  I remember listening to this way before they decided to put it in the game.  They in fact weren't even going to put it in.  Funny story but this was a peice done when he was trying to get the job of making the music to Mass Effect.  At the last minute they decided to use it as the galaxy map music.  Very beautiful peice.

This is a classic. It will be in my head until the day I die, and is the purest definition of sci-fi.

I will find EVERY bit of iridium, palladium, platinum, and element zero on this planet, and there's nothing you can do to stop me.

A lot of people don't know it, but when making a game, the small details are crucial, such as this great song. This song is one of THE most important small details of the Mass Effect Trilogy. It has been droning itself into the back of our minds since the beginning, every take to the galaxy map, it tells us to adventure, explore, and inspire. It shows to observe the colours, see the sites, and live the story. If it wasn't for this song, I believe that Mass Effect would be a far less great adventure than it is today.

I consider Mass Effect a work of art, and if any game developer wishes to create something as wonderful as Mass Effect, they should never forget the bits that count, the bits that we can't see, but at the back of our minds, know are there.

I wish I could wipe my memory and play this game for the first time again.

[lazorize]

I'll really miss going into battle with Garrus and Wrex...

[pippidy]

It's the best interpretation of space i've ever heard. So dark, mysterious and endless...

[desmondludlow]

makes me sad my lifespan prevents me from ever seeing space travel such as this.
Born a bit too soon :/

[JazzJaRa]

Mass Effect simply has one of the best Sci Fi universes and most plausible ones.

[jumeauxelaine]

I remember still being iffy about Mass Effect. However as soon as I opened the Galaxy Map for the first time, and this music greeted my ears, I fell in love. I sat listening for about 10 minutes, completely mesmerised. This was the piece that made me fall in love with this series.

[fragrf]

Never been a fan of star trek or star wars but my god mass effect is brilliant! The music, politics, the different races, omega relays, biotics and super interesting events like the genophage!

[SammEater]

Dude, I love it to just read the descriptions of the planets and listening to this music for many minutes, you know a game is good when you don't even need to actually play to enjoy a lot.

Most of my pleasing feelings for Mass Effect trilogy stems from its deficiency in the presentation of the physical world around you. The game gives the player some room to imagine what is in the universe of Mass Effect. It is almost like reading a novel that you desperately fill the blanks about the people, the cities, and the structure of the fiction in your mind. Since the environment is not fully given to the player due to, I believe, some technical inabilities, it gives the player a huge role to take part in the composition of the game. Thereby, the factitive nature of me bringing a character to life reaches beyond the conventional interactiveness of video games. For the open-world level of the game is really restricted, you catch yourself imagining the back streets of Omega and thinking what people are doing while looking through the Citadel center toward the city beneath you. And this is how the bond between you and the game is structured, I guess.

“Really, commander ?”
“Probing Uranus.”

The Mass Effect Trilogy remains the best game series of all time for me, 10 years after it ended. I still love to replay it every year

'' Mass Effect is a bright universe with a dark secret, a spectacular new vision of the future. You're commander Shepard the tip of the spear of Humanity, on a galactic stage.

Your actions, whether generous or ruthless will determine the fate of an entire universe. You have a starship called the Normandy and will command its crew as you adventure through the galaxy. You will travel the fastness of space and explore uncharted worlds, unraveling mysteries on a galactic scale. ''

Sorry i watched the Mass Effect demo from 2006 to many times ;)

After time adrift among open stars. Along tides of light and through shoals of dust, I shall return to where I began.

It never occurred to me that the Galaxy Map theme never changed. It's just so natural.
