Halo - The Lost Muse/Song (extended)

I took the liberty to extend the original since it's one of my all time favorites.

Please enjoy and thank you for watching!

When you go to the fridge at 3 AM and notice a couple plasma swords hovering in midair out of the corner of your eye.

[asimplepie]

The fact they never tried to make this song in the other games is shocking. One of CEs best tracks imo

[HeyHax]

Nothing will replicate the feeling you get when playing Halo CE for the first time. I remember long nights playing with this amazing ost in the background

[zacharykenniston]

This was always my favorite song in halo. Period. No other song is as atmospheric as this otherworldly music.

[KainRazielMT]

I have no idea why they didn't include this in the OST. I've been searching this track for years. It's really chilling, and saddening at the same time.

[insert_username_here]

This is such a criminally underrated track in the Halo series. It's a damn shame that this song didn't appear in the the other Halo games unlike a lot of the other tracks in this game.

Hopefully this song will make an appearance in Halo Infinite in some way, shape or form. I wouldn't even mind a song in Infinite somewhat resembling this one even though it would sound different.

[SirAuron]

“As the Master Chief fights through wave after wave of Covenant forces protecting the control room, his limits are pushed to the brink, even as a Spartan...he then encounters a hallway that seems quiet... almost too quiet...”

[rustomkhan]

I remember those camouflage sword elites.

[Comando]

Mysterious and strange like Halo CE itself

[shadingcrawler]

Fun fact: This theme returns as the base for the percussion portion of In Amber Clad in Halo 2, if you search for "in amber clad percussion" you'll notice how familiar both themes sound (The Lost Muse has a slower tempo so it won't sound identical at first, if you run both themes in Audacity, delete the silence at the beginning and increase the tempo of Lost Muse by 2 then the whole beginning part fits)

[Hifcrea]

You can get so lost in this song. It has an infinite mind scape to it. Every single morning in my one class the Teacher didn’t care what we did. I’d put this on repeat and fall asleep for the period. Probably have listened to over 2, 000 times
A timeless song with unlimited depth.

[deviantfeet]

No words. Thank you man I've been searching that track since 2001. The atmosphere... Never saw it again in any game. The specops, and the two corpse in a room with Hunters. MASTERPIECE.

Here I am, in 2022. 27 years old and have been playing this game religiously since I was 8. The nostalgia flows through my veins like crazy especially while listening to this. Ah good times lol

[that_one_helljumper]

It fits the atmosphere of that part of assault on the control room perfectly. Makes you feel like you’re surrounded, alone at the same time, and that everything around you is foreign and you don’t quite belong to be there. Though it still makes you feel like a badass and want to kill covies at the same time

[Ccortanaa]

This is the one song in Halo that when it started, i stopped moving around, i stood still, and listened to something that gave me chills

[gistvisions]

Listening now makes me think of the pieces of installation 04 adrift in space near the gas giant, with nothing but echoes of the events that started the best trilogy in the history of video games.

[damianosmarroquin]

Chills, just chills. God I remember growing up to this game man, such good memories. Thank you Bungie. And thank you Marty.

[vergolophus]

This song is a lot of good things, eerie, atmospheric, but I think I love it a lot because it feels like Halo-- and Bungie's--- roots with Marathon or games like Marathon. The game had such humble beginnings, back when it wasn't certain if it would be loved by some or loved by millions.

[bradley-]

Instant Nostalgia. Song is so peaceful and motivating at the same time. Keep give up on yourself. This song represents the mental fortitude Master Chief had to go through. The resilience and insane adversity. We will never see his face and that's the mystery.

[mochauchiha]

I'm a huge halo fan. I've listened to every Halo CE song but I somehow missed this one. It brings back a lot of memories about those Hunters just waiting for you around the corner.. GOT DAMN YOU NOSTALGIA!! 😩
