Binary Sunset Extended - Star Wars Soundtrack

Its great to see so many out there still enjoying the beauty of such work. John Williams is a musical god.

Video Details-
Extended version of the brilliant masterpiece of John Williams, the Binary Sunset for the original Star Wars Episode IV (A New Hope).

The track fell into my hands a while back, and with it a few more varying tracks that where never in the motion picture. I ripped the music from some game as far back as Jedi Knights 2 or perhaps even Jedi Knights 1... The one wit the Yavin Trials levels, don't remember which title it was exactly. The one with Kyle Katarn (if that helps).

For all SW and John Williams fans, enjoy....!!!!

For those wondering which part is extended, it's from 1:00 - 2:00... To me that extra piece is simply brilliant and even more inspiring than the original 2 minute binary sunset... Simply amazing...

Edit: For those saying it is not the Binary Sunset Extended. Well of course it isn't officially Binary Sunset Extended, there is no such thing. For those saying it is a mix of Binary Sunset and Light of the Force. Indeed these parts are originally used in those two tracks.

Having that said, Jedi Knights is an official SW game and property of LucasArts. ALL the music in the games are from the first soundtracks created in the original trilogy. Whether they are mixes, or remade, or whatever, is beyond the point. New and official soundtracks have been created for the games and it is a song in its own.

Lastly, since these songs were not named at all and were simply file-names given to the level of the game that was played, the name was open for interpretation. Thus I came up with it myself and what more fitting name could be given than the one I gave? It is after all, the Binary Sunset, extended. And it is an official track of its own and property to LucasArts, and should NOT be treated as a mix of 2 tracks.

Just needed to add that since there are some claiming it is not the Binary Sunset Extended and it is a mix. Well, no. It is a track LucasArts made/mixed/edited (whetever they saw fit) for an official product to their company and it is a track in its own, that also was not named. Stop treating it as a mix. I didn't sit there and put it together myself. LucasArts made the song and how they did it (simple editing or not) is not for debate. The end result is what counts.

So enjoy that end result, the Binary Sunset, extended ;)

"Every year, I watch the sunset on May 14th with this playing. And every year it reminds me of when I first heard this piece in the theater with my Dad on May 14th, 1977"

The dark side...
The Jedi...
They're real.

[shawz]

the part at 1:27 that builds until the aching sense of longing and dreams unfulfilled and the fear they might never come to just stretches your soul until it cracks.
Thats some serious shit.

Episode 7: Jar Jar Binks joins the Dark Side and becomes a Sith Lord. "Oh, me'sa fraid de bombad flector shield is quite operational when you'sa friends arrives.Oopsa!"

IMO John Williams is the greatest composer of the 20th and 21st century.

"While the sacrifices are heavy, we fight knowing that a single spark of courage can ignite the fires of hope, and restore peace to the galaxy."

I think this theme would have fit better over that quote.  Who else does?

[nathandeal]

Imagine the inside of the theaters on opening day of Episode 7, people are going to be going ballistic!

[braxtoncutthroat]

it's true all of it the dark side the Jedi they're real

I know people have said it before, but Jack Robinson, may the force be with you, little padawan. 

[sheevpalpatine]

It is unavoidable. We will witness the destruction of the alliance, and an end to this insignificant rebellion.

[mattroper]

If this plays in episode VII and you see a skywalker child look at the twin suns of tatooine, man that would be nostalgic

[TJ-dpyn]

I got goose bumps D: this is so epic ;_;

[stickybonez]

Is this a good funeral song? I'm interested in this, I know it's nerdy, but I want to express how much a part of my life Star Wars was.

This video will make a fine addition to my collection.
