There is one track missing, I think? "Cave" ("Wonder of the World" in the DE version). The very first one you used to hear, when you started a new game.
Not sure what sound card I had when I played this as a kid, but this sounds a lot closer to what I remember than the other soundtracks uploaded to RUclips. Cheers.
There were 2 different MIDI soundbanks, the default Microsoft one and that came with Creative Soundblasters, not sure if you could get that MIDI soundbank elsewhere.
Yeah this one sounds the closest to mine. Apart from my Windows 95 Soundblaster 16 - that was simple computerized sounds that didn't sound like actual sound effects/instruments!
Roland has a pretty unique signature sound when it comes to MIDI and signal processing, it makes me feel too much nostalgia, and I born late in the 90’s.
@@ghostbombl8034 What's more is MIDI is used for sampling instruments. Tons of "instrumental" music is made using MIDI controls of pre-recorded instrument samples. Some of the pianos sound indistinguishable from playing the real thing.
It is a mathematical certainty that a RUclips video will receive dislikes on it. Somebody might have pressed the wrong button. Somebody may dislike every video they see just for kicks. Somebody might really, really hate MIDI files and not want them recommended to them in the future. Bottom line, no point in overanalyzing the mind of someone who dislikes a harmless video. It’s just a mainstay of the website.
I used to be so blown away by this game. My first introduction to rts and history. The graphics looked so nice to my young eye. It was probably there and then I became a gamer that loves history, even though I didn't understand jack of the game (yet).
This is a flawless recording and audio mastering , really loving the dynamic sound of it, spacious, powerful and punchy, while crisp, bright and smooth. What's more fascinating is that the power pool reserve and depth are maintained when all instruments kick in, sounds don't muffle or drain eachother out. Verry impressive, I'm beginning to understand my dad's obsession with vintage oldschool audio, analogic magnetophone reel to reel players, cassette decks and do on. Hard to find a sound with this attitude. 00:57 Sick Sate Rittim sounds incredible, especially at 2:29 onward Thank you for this !

Обожал эту игру в детстве, да и щас люблю, в первую часть я играл больше чем во-вторую , и я очень любил музыку из этой прекрасной игры, спасибо за саундтрек
Yesssssssss!!! THERE IT IS! "Medieval Melody"! 12:37 I haven't heard this song in 27 years. This was the soundtrack to the beginning of my addiction to vidya games, playing the AoE demo on my dad's beat-up thinkpad work laptop whenever I could. Damn, I thought I would never find this soundtrack again. All i've seen for years are a bunch of AoE soundtracks I've never heard before. These original midi songs are so much more memorable than all the other ones around.
YES!! This is exactly how it should all sound like! For some reason after transferring my aoe midi files over to newer OSs (which can't play the game), they all sound likr crap in any media player. This is gold! Thanks for sharing!
age of empires soundtrack was in a fileformat callled .midi midi files are best described as a the sheet music meaning your computer had to read the note and play whit there instrument. sadly microsoft removed there okey still not good midi sound databse somewhere after XP. and replaced it whit a super basic and crap 3MB midi sound data base or something.
This brings back a lot of memories, man I loved my childhood despite of being bullied in school I could always escape into playing this game and others like this which brought me endless joy. Forever will love it! 😊
geeting home , geeting the home work done and down to a teeth....hearing this tune boot up and imagening all sorts of crap around the scenarios one made...and then when learned enough english imagening shit about the personas in the campains. Good times , when one still thought the world of adults was filled with sane people taking responsible decisions ^^
Hace muchos años puse un cd en un equipo de musica y sonaba esta bestialldad, ..paso el tiempo y se fundio mi cd, nunca mas escuche este hermoso sonido, siempre encontraba los mp3 o wav pero no sonaba como yo recordaba, ahora que escucho esto...GRACIASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
nahka I know the comment is over 1 year old but there is no flacs of the OST (unless you have original CD with soundtrack). That's the .midi files played by your soundcard and the quality of sounds depend only on soundcard. Roland devices are the better ones imo
I learned the word “Scenario” from this game. Now I know if anyone asks where I first heard the word “Scenario”, I can say… “Why, I first learned the word Scenario while playing Age of Empires as a young boy.”
Unfortunately, most of these songs are not heard as they were originally emulated, the melodies were heard more natural. here certain instruments are lost and others are replaced. play your game cd on your home stereo and it will reproduce it more faithfully to the original sounds
Magnificient! This is my favourite game until now. First played it when I was 14 years old, it was around 1998. I was still in class two junior high school. I remember installed it on Intel Pentium II PC with OS Windows 95, and showed how great this game to my parents, also how terrible I played. I mean, that time I still a newbie in RTS game. Thus I played the skirmish, showed to my parents, and in about 5 minutes or so, the enemy came and destroyed everything... well... but after I learned the strategy and able to win the scenarios, I fall in love with this game. Until now, I have AOE 1,2, and 3
I was terrorised when I saw santa pop saying "wololo" and a villager disapear in the fog ... yeah, the ennemy red priest had just converted one of my units ...
This is the only original sound of AoE 1 I could find around here. I mean, why are all of these soundtracks so different? Is that because of differend sound cards? I'm an IT stuff noob, that's why I ask. :)
BehindBush the music files included in the game weren’t actually audio files, they were midi files which instructed the computer to play the music using its built in synthesiser. All computers had different synths built in. If you had money you could buy a big fancy external one like this!
unlike Rise of Rome the Age of Empires base game had completely different soundtracks depending on whether you had the CD in or not. the MIDI soundtrack is the one here and the CD soundtrack is the one you more often find when you look for it on RUclips
You guys know these games shipped with an actual CD audio soundtrack AND midis? These are just the midis being played with a Roland. I still strongly believe the actual soundtrack is superior. I just read the description after I wrote this and the uploader use my exact phrasing: the original soundtrack is superior.
Six-year-old me was 1337-hax0r for figuring out that I could get the "alternate soundtrack" to play by opening the CD tray then launching the game (or maybe it was the other way around. It's been a while)
Hyman's Wrath is simply incredible! Such insane energy, a furious tempo and a flow that's as smooth and silky as the softest velvet. Soooo damn addictive! Makes my day so much better every single time I listen to it.
That one is crazily good. the guys behind this OST are legends. and apparently this game music was made using a SC-88 or equivalent MIDI device. It just sounds like it's made for SoundCanvas.
2024 still listen to this music❤ Will never forget also when they develop technology that people will live 200 years I will be in 2224 and will hear this music 😂😂😂
I was wery suprised when aoe started to play this nicely out of my retro+roland PC. I didnt set up anything. It just plays. Also the sound card is SB64 Gold and i think it plays better samples on its own when the roland is powered off.I must retest it.
I have for my Macintosh one version with cd audio and the other with the midi music. I have changed the quicktime settings in order to use my Roland Sound Canvas SC88 for the music. I agree, the cd version is superior.
I think it misses one song, which is what used to play in the pre-rise of rome game when you started a match It started with some violins, then a flute would join, and then some drums. Hard to describe but for me it's the most iconic AOE track
Where is the song that is just called "cave"? It's usually the first song that plays when you start a new map, if Sick Sate Rittim doesn't play. One of the greats seems to be missing here?
Something's wrong with Polyrythmic Pong (around 7:00). It sounds especially cacophonic in this version. For comparison: ruclips.net/video/2WtIudUClcw/видео.html
Hi, here is my explanation. The composer used several synths and custom instruments. The Polyrhythmic Pong song tries to load instruments, maybe effects, that don't exist on Roland SC-88..most probably on any Roland GS module. It is up to the device how it will deal with it, if it tries to play such song. For instance SC-88 doesn't play anything, you have to modify the source file and set an existing instrument or switch it to GM mode. The SC-88 will reject all advanced sysex commands and extended GS instruments. I have a feeling the midi files were composer's working files, not optimized to any existing module or synth.
Oh wow, Medieval Melody sounds so different on this compared to what I grew up on as a kid. The chorus is played with some kind of wooden wind instrument, rather than the high pitched flutes I remember (and have heard in other soundtracks)
You must have had a different SoundFont file. Or are you talking about the version from the original version, or the Rise of Rome one? Because there are slight differences between those too
@@n3rdopolis The one I'm familiar with comes from the Rise of Rome soundtrack, the only version that I know of. I don't believe it was part of the original AOE soundtrack.
@@Mriya6 Yeah, I think there is an older version without Medieval Melody, the Rise of Rome had two Medieval Melody's though, MUSIC5.mid when playing the original campaign, and it was XMUSIC6.mid for the Rome expansion. There are some differences, like the opening drum rhythm
My girlfriend just told me that I'm eating, sleeping and breathing AOE at the moment and is wondering what's going on with me... I reckon I just have good taste?

same i was born in 97 and have much appreciation for the music and the games of aoe and even aoe2
Oh wow, I wish there was a larger interest in midi instruments. Something about it is so intriguing and always gets my attention.
Me too... I would love to see a whole film score just full of midi but orchestrated succinctly
Midi is huge in the electronic world.Prety much most electronic producers really on heavy midi for midi modules to midi virtual plug-ins.
@@ghostbombl8034 What's more is MIDI is used for sampling instruments. Tons of "instrumental" music is made using MIDI controls of pre-recorded instrument samples. Some of the pianos sound indistinguishable from playing the real thing.
