Rayman & Spyro used the same music samples?

The same sound samples, used in 2 different games released just days apart. #rayman #spyro #shorts

[rockstopsthetraffic]

They used sounds from a sample collection called "Distorted Reality 2".

Stewart Copeland wrote the Spyro 2 soundtrack with a lot more samples than in Spyro 1, but that's no knock on its quality at all! A nice adaptation of his skillset away from his raw composition/Police style.

Likely a shared catalogue of sound effects. Reminds me of the distinct sound effect from the theme of the Spyro 2 Level Hurricos. Recognised that sound in the menu theme of Metroid Prime Hunters, albeit at a different pitch and speed.

Stewart Copeland went apeshit on them
Spyro tracks, bruh.

[FredrIQ]

I listened to the rayman 2 ost yesterday and felt some of it reminded me of Spyro music. I guess this checks out, heh

[themeekwarrior]

I love catching on to little tidbits like this. It makes it all feel connected. In a way, it is. Small world.

[TheIGITnBLUE]

They used the same sample pack for the tracks. Look up Shadow the Hedgehog and Experiment 626 Stitch game soundtracks. They did the same. (And I think the Stitch game had same files from Saint's Row)

[DoofenSpyroDragon]

It’s not the same music, but it is the same samples. Both from Distorted Reality and used in Spyro 2. I always like hearing the samples in other media!

[frustratednoodle]

They use the same type of sample they are not copping.

[NeonBandingo]

Sampling. Weird to say it was before your time. >w>; I'm a Sage now.

[artpapers]

Stewart Copeland did the intro theme song for the Amanda Show 🤓

Like some others are saying they probably came from the same sample set. Theres a cool video on how the ratchet and clank soundtrack samples were mixed and they have one sound made with 3 seconds of a track. Pretty cool imo.

[zeldaa]

so this is the music from the beginnings of 3d (masterclass)

[MattH-te]

Not surprising at all. Fun fact: the first few seconds of Stone Hill’s music from Spyro 1 samples a sound that is used heavily in the Final Hours theme from Majora’s Mask. It’s jarring once you hear it because of how radically different both tracks feel.

[FlavioCrusiGrisari]

Does anyone on the left side hear a familiar sound effect in Rayman 2?

[ChiefWombatCuddler]

Animal Planet's The Most Extreme uses a similar samole too

[fabien]

They are. the same samples of the two games from the Distorted Reality 2 library !

[Duffzig]

Listen to the music from the movie goodburger as well! Stewart Copeland went beast mode in the late 90s

[MOCskoden]

An example of two companies helping each other out. Love both these franchises

[Velstrazo]

You would have a field day with aonic music

[GabePickles]

I think they were also used in the Futurama theme?
