I may be risking a bit notifying the community about this,. considering i love the OST, but i found that someone has posted the OST of the individual music for the OST on youtube. I loved listening to lost to the waves myself, but i don't know if this is cool with Alec and Derek. I figured I should let the community know, for all the great music lovers out there. If this is what the real OSt sounds like I''m sold already.
anyway, url for the music is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gK44op7N4w
that will lead you to lost to the waves. Anyway, for all the music lovers, enjoy. I hope this is cool with Alec and Derek. FYI i didn't post it, I just found it.
-
I'm the one that posted it. I asked if I could post it in the jukebox topic in the modding forum but I never got a response. If Derek or Alec object than I'll remove it.
As a bit of an aside, it's not the entire OST. It's maybe about half of it. I've also got a playlist setup if anybody wants it.

For chrissakes, its almost done!

Big thanks to both Derek (http://derekyu.com) and Katie (http://katiedesousa.com/) for working on the OST booklet art! ^-^
-
In case it wasn't clear, I don't mean to detract or call out anyone for putting the OST up, I just wanted to share the mystic tunes of Aquaria that i have personally been searching youtube for for quite a bit.
I'd like to say thanks to ZealousD, and to Alec, I'm glad that the OST is nearly done, and I personally can't wait. I think it would probably be a good idea to not have Zealous remove the pieces, just because it's free advertising for the great music and the great game it goes to. Just my two cents.
Can't wait till the OST comes out...and then the sequel...
-
For chrissakes, its almost done!
And I'll be buying it! I just needed a temporary measure to ensure that I am not starving prior to its release.
Speaking of waiting on releases, when is 1.1 coming out? I've got a friend who's waiting on the Mac version and I'm waiting for it so I can replay the game again!
-
I'm cool with the stuff on youtube for now. It seems to happen with most bands and the quality of audio on YouTube is not very good, so it works as a preview. Its also cool to see fans put together stuff. :)

I just pushed out Beta 4 of Mac 1.1.0! I think we're near a release candidate for the Mac version. Once that's done, I'll probably try to start the Windows beta. (can still sign up to be a potential tester on the blog!)

I love the cover art for the OST!
-
I knew it stood for Original Soundtrack! Btw that cover is incredible. I don't know if I can wait 5 years for a sequel. I also don't know if I'll buy the OST though...I don't listen to music you see.

Well now's a good time to start. I mean how can you listen to Aquaria and not be overcome with total calm and splendor. I'm gonna add it to my collection of other video games tracks. As for a sequel...I'll wait ten years if I have to.
Just hope that Alec and Derek don't get hit by a bus or something before it's done.
I'd hate to see Aquaria go the way of the Spyro or Crash Bandicoot sequels, where after the original creators leave it's side it goes totally down hill.
-
5 years!!!!! :'( I might be unable to play it in 5 years time, but I will fight all the way to be able too.. (health problems) :( But I am a lot fitter now than I expected to be so it's just possible that I will be fit enough to play it?
I love the cover art also, has Derek or Katie painted it?
-
Great news! I love it! :)
And silverflagon, there may be another beautiful bit blot game earlier for you (and us) to play. :)

If it's half as stunning as this one then that will be great Xiagan, but I want Aquaria 2 now ::) lol But I do understand that what I want and what can be delivered are 2 very different things so I will just need to be patient and wait. I will be 64 :o but in my head I am still very much 18 ;D
-
It's really too bad that the navy has such sites banned from use of view. Downloading video is insanely slow with our shared bandwidth anyways. Damned archaic satellites! Time to launch some new ones into space!! Speaking of space, I wonder if anyone has ever played the first video game in space. Just a random thought for the day. :)
-
Halleluja, OST is almost published!! My Most Sincerest Congratulations and well-wishes to Alec, Derek and Katie too for this wonderful job you have done. The cover-art is beautiful. I can't wait to have it.
I hope that i will get my own copies to Finland asap... Don't you dare to sell it only in Canada ;)
-
I can has birthday? My birthday is the 2nd of September (in like two weeks). I'd be totally rad (;) ) if it came out just before then. :D
And that art looks so smooth, dayum. *Want*
-
Man I can't wait for that soundtrack to come out. I've wanted to listen to it while I work since the game came out.
-
the cover to that is *stunning*
-
I love you. You just totally made my day freaking awesome! And it is a beautimous beautimous cover. *Snuggles it* ;D (I meant this at news of the OST, hehe)
-
I can't wait for this to come out! You've got me sold!! I only wish that I could have an actual hardcopy of the game on CD or DVD with bonuses and an awesome color cover label on it! =)

If the OST works out, I'll get Chris and Katie at IA (http://infiniteammo.ca) to help me put together a special boxed edition of Aquaria. :)
-
Yippy! AWESOME! :) Best of luck on the OST CD!!! =)

OMG GIMME I WANT BOX I LIKE BOXES
-
Hmm, I don't think all the symbols are where I remembered them... Is this intentional? Like maybe a puzzle on the OST cover :o?
-
I have to agree with everyone, that cover art is simply fantastic. A box for the game with a similar style would be absolutely wondrous. I would be thrilled to re-purchase the game for that, myself, because I love having physical media to hold in my hand. Never been a fan of just downloading stuff.
Anyway, you are guaranteed a sale of the OST and a box from me. Looking forward to both, plus the new Windows beta.

I would also like a hard copy just in case of computer problems I mean, is it ok to burn one version from our files to cd and will it work ok from that burn Alec?

silverflagon: You will not be able to create a bootable install on a CD without a proper program to do so, and I'm sure the permission from Alec. But you can always back up the install.exe and update plus a file with your registration information so that you have it backed up for personal use. You can do that without permission, with your own software copy rights. You just can't give it out to anyone. I just want an official CD to go along with a collection. I don't necessarily need a box, but a cool booklet/box is always welcomed. I just hope for those that have purchased the game already we won't have to repurchase the game for the same price as those buying it new. That is IF a boxed version is made. I definitely will be getting the OST CD though! And even if I had to pay $5 to $10 extra for a box and official CD release then I'd do it.

YES.
You just solved it. Your reward is saving the cover art from being wrong!
-
NICE SAVE!! 4 Symbols were flipped to opposite sides. I was hoping that the two plant symbols, yellow and cyan were flipped too, then it would be an easy fix, just flip the image horizontally and it would have been fixed. lol Hope it's as simple as moving layers around in adobe or gimp. :)
Kudos to Siren!
-
Yeah, not sure why Derek did it that way. Maybe he was working off an old file or something.
-
Well, yay then :O! I love the layout of the symbols as they are in the game, and all the colors, although on my screen the reddish one and the orangey one were almost the same color.... Anyway, super excited about the OST! And a boxed edition of Aquaria for whenever that happens :D.
-
Hah! I knew something was wrong with the picture but I couldn't put my finger on it..
GJ Siren. :D
-
Just an update on progress... I finished writing a new song for the OST! :) Its going to be about 8 minutes long.
-
That's wonderful Alec, can we only get to hear it if we buy the OST?
-
I think that's the way it should be Silver, to give people even more an incentive to purchase the OST album. However, that said, it would be really cool to have it included in some form with a future release version of Aquaria. :)
-
It would be neat to have it as an unlockable of some sort: maybe going through the game without dying? That would be a little hard though (except for hardcore gamers) ;)

That is what I was wondering DM I should of been a bit clearer asking :-[
-
Either way, I'm so getting that song. Anything that long and that good has got to be totally rad. :D
-
Hi there^^
I just wanted to ask if there will be a note sheet delivered with the OST. I'd love to play those songs on my ocarina :D
-
Woot! Ocarina FTW!
I can already play the ingame songs (like bind song, energy form song etc) but it would be cool to play the battle theme and stuff. :D
-
Oooh, I could dig out my recorder and relearn that or my clarinet :p Not sure it'd sound as pretty as it would on an ocarina (which I have no clue what that sounds like, but it sounds like it would sound either like a recorder or a flute). Of course, I'd have to figure out what things I"d need to change if it was in either of those, as I know the Clarinet is a b flat instrument I think >.> only been about 4-5 years since I played. Either way, would be super fun!
Man, Aquaria music is like an obsession for me XD. I listened to it months after when I originally played, and it made me get all emotional again and want to play even more. So excited about the OST coming in the nearish future ;D.
-
I use 'Licave' as my ringtone recently and it is quite nice. :)
-
Nice.
Yeah the ocarina sounds a bit like a recorder, but (my one at least) less squeaky, which is particularly noticable on the higher notes.
If I had a ring tone (I just use silent viabrate) then an aquaria song could be it. :)
-
Ocarinas are beautiful if rather small instruments, I have been tempted to buy one myself now and then only I don't think that I could play any instrument that requires the full flexible use of my left hand ::) lol
-
I like this idea, I might even put up my own game's soundtrack on YouTube. Aquaria has a great soundtrack! Does v1.1 have any new music?

1.1.0 has some updated tracks. (I tweaked a couple of the ones I wasn't that happy with)
The OST is going to have one new, and fairly long song with vocals by Jenna, as well as a few other surprises. :)
-
Oh man, I hope you have the option to leave those songs un-tweaked. I like the soundtrack the way it is.

They're better, not worse. :)
I doubt that a lot of people will even notice the changes.
-
Lol. Lets see if I do! :D
And goodie~! I like surprises (if they're good, but ya havn't let me down yet ;) ).
