To be completely honest, you could put the "best of" badge on basically anything these guys have made, Rom di Prisco is and Saki Kaskas was that good. But I narrowed it down to 3 hours, chronologically, starting with NFS 2 and ending with Rom's latest album.
I've decided to create this playlist as a memento to Saki, as a "thank you" to Rom and for everyone who has enjoyed this music over the past years. Enjoy!

When EA was a game company and not a dlc seller...
It was such a bummer knowing EA Seattle closed down right before the release of Hot Pursuit 2. Tech did evolve greatly but these guys had superb potential. Giving the series to EA Black Box (and then subsequently butchering it after Carbon) killed it.
@@diablow1411 true :D
lol yeah, remember downloading free dlc for the game back then :D
Back when the Arts in EA was still art
In 2000 I wrote an email to Saki Kaskas to ask him where I could buy the track Callista. He gave me the URLs on his website where to download it and a few more of his tracks. Damn... too bad he left this world...
any chance you still have these URLs and they still work?
@@jlst_gtr4498i think i found it, but the website is dead :(
Search for jeff-dyck-saki-kaskas hydr0. hydr0 seems to be safe, and its just a music streaming service. But when i clicked the link i just got a 404. Maybe the site is still visible on some internet archive. My other comment was deleted maybe because of a link, so im trying to go around it by this comment.
I hope i could help you a little bit or gave you something that leads to you finding the music. If not, then sorry, but if you ever find something and by chance remember this comment, please let me know if you can ^^
Edit: i have searched Hydr0 in internet archives but couldnt find anything. The earliest copy of the website is from 2020 and even then it already had a 404 but with Nginx error. Idk what to make of this information other than the website being dead :( sorry.
true that hes surely resting in peace there ! :( at least left us cool music to groove to ! i play flight sim and tweak it to this video ! helps a lot :)
Saki kaskas and Rom di prisco are the reason why I started electronic music
me too!
He is legend in electronic music. Underrated
same
Can I hear your music?
Все хотят послушать😊
RIP my BROTHER with respect from Kazakhstan For memories which u organized for us players of this epic game/
о привет
This music, more modern than this days.
It will be even 50 years from now, it was ahead of its time and it's timeless
if you like this type of music, check out the dudes from Swerve( search on soundcloud and bandcamp for shiftdelete, -kx, xpand, vonsnake )

NFS 3 and NFS High Stakes....oh man the music....It is a masterpiece for even today standards. Nothing can beat it, always takes me back to my childhood.
Masterpiece.
Absolutely.
True
Callista, Cygnus Rift and Romulus 3 are dope tracks. Unmatchable levels and unreachable heights.
Main menu too.
aquila 303 especially 38:28
Absolutely amazing oscillators, eq and modulations shifting work! + all that layering multiple times! Still hard to replicate and not to loose overall seeing of what you want from that sound.
Romulus 3 the king of all
Liquid Plasma too
Под эту музыку прошла моя молодость!
Kallista , pure Goosebumps, thanks for best childhood. rip
Same here.
Romulus 3 will keep playing inside my head until my last breath. What an infectious track. Absolutely love it, even after 25 some years of listening to it the very first time.
Это счастье - слышать всю эту музыку! Вы гении! Все, кто выросли на этих играх, поймут.
Верните меня обратно в эти года. Во времена первого, второго и т.д нфс я ходил в школу. И слушая до боли знакомую музыку мысленно оказался в юношестве. Жаль ни чего нельзя повторить во второй раз ущутив это как в первый.
Земля пухом Тебе Ром Приско.
nfs high stakes had one of the best soundtracks, it was so much ahead of its time. and even now - its still best among all existing games
(and new games cant get even closer to this masterpiece). when i start it first time on my ps1 i just fell through space. thats one of most futurstic things i ever heard. And that time was "golden" because of music and people like Saki Kaskas and Rom Di Prisco.
I totally agree!!
Agree! Just compare high stake’s menu music to the ones used during supermodels shows hen the models are walking on the runways.
There a certain beat that felt the same. I think what Rom di Prisco just did is to show that the main menu OSTs are deliberately composed to resemble runways backgorund music because in this game, the cars ARE the supermodels, with the cars spinning slowly as backgound music kept playing
I like even more the nfs3 soundtrack. But nfs 4 was super iconic to me too and bring almost the same feelings
I didn't know he passed away... His music inspired me to create entire virtual businesses, software programming, 3d architectural rendering, and more. Rest in peace, Saki Kaskas. Still listening to you in 2020 !
Sadly, he did.
It's always great to see someone being inspired by someone elses art, keep up the good work!
He died of drug overdose but he could have lived
@@abhikdas8464 He was doing it for a long time apparently, and the explanation was that drugs helped him get back in reality.
He certainly had an interesting life, and passion, not wanting to work someone, but work for... music.
Massive fan of Rom and Saki ever since the High stakes days. I know Saki is up there writing more tunes for us to enjoy in the heavens. You guys are right, it really doesn't get better than this. I've listened to these tracks while hiking in dense forest and alpine regions, it's the best feeling being on top of a mountain and listening to Romulus 3
I want Callista played at my funeral, I'll drive forever in the afterlife to that track!
two legends from the electronic underground scene
Its amazing how many styles they dipped into. I love such futuristic vibes, would love to discover more music like this.
Unbelievable how talented and creative these 2 guys are. Saki really influenced my music taste just because I loved taking a ride with a McLaren F1 and had his music in the background.
omg imagine paying someone for a ride in an F1 these days.. and saying to the driver... "Can i just put a few tracks on" =D
The year 2000. Windows 98 and a copy of NFS 2 SE borrowed from my neighbor. Epic times. 😭.👌🏻

@@Good_Luck_8619 Why not just the NFS3 PC version?
@@scythelord idk I never knew of that I had once hot pursuit of version back in 2002
@DocumentingLife8619 Hot Pursuit on Windows ME 😆
@@wheelzandgillz yeah blimp psx emulator
Can't describe the effect Main Menu track has on me.. Man life was so different back in 1997 playing NFS2 SE....
A simpler time perhaps, the good old times :)
No one else can come close to creating music like this.
Minotaur and Triton are some of the hardest tracks till this day. TILL THIS DAY.
I wish there was a proper extended version of triton !
Damn the music they made for Need for Speed was insane. So atmospheric. I love it. Thanks for sharing this.
Callista!!! 👊
That songs have so modern techs and feels... absolutely amazing. Rest in peace Saki... Rom and Jeff, we still love you too!
Jeff and Rom are still alive bro 😬
@@geg_otmopo3 Yes, they are! Thankfully c:
I just realized that majority of these tracks are various names/terms from astronomy.
I never knew official names of these songs besides few like Paradigm Shift, Callista and Quantum Singularity, but I heard them countless times while I was a kid playing N4S.
Quantum Singularity is one of the most nostalgic things in my entire life and it always brings so much wonderful childhood memories the second I hear first few seconds of it.
N4S really had one if not THE best OST ever in my humble opinion.
Huh, I never thought about it this way.
Well, this is golden, thank you very much. Came here from Mass Effect 2 and Callista btw)
I hope you had an enjoyable music session :)
And yeah, Callista is also my favorite, though not because of Mass Effect 2, I go way back, to NFS.
@@FightingForceSoulless Thanks again, had a great time) Found a lot of very nice music for my playlist 👌
Thanks for putting this together. Love this 90's Electronica.
We miss him a lot
Hi Soulless, many thanks for putting this playlist together. I listen to it a lot, especially when I need some positive feelings from my childhood when times are dark.
Thumbs up for Saki Kaskas. Great music.
enjoying since the late 90s, on my PC and in my car
Grande saki kaskas! Recuerdo que siempre grababa en los casettes de antes sus canciones si saber que era el y después con el Internet lo descubrí! Gracias por tan grande música! Siempre será parte de mi infacia! 1996- 2022 saki kaskas aun vive en esa gran música
Knossos was composed in 1998 or even earlier, and its on par with today's tekno. wow
Playing NFS Heat with this soundtrack is a much better experience for me than with the original 😉
This solar system art and supercars are united in my mind and high speed chases included. Please come back the original music to the game.
Gives very warm, deep, soulful feelings. This music is more art then "standard" and beloved but still commercial electronic music (like most famous DJs), despite used in purely commercial game.

I never heard of a mix collaboration that I totally agreed with and was fankly new and beautiful. Saki Kaskas is soo proud of this
Omg NFS2 was my first PC game ever, 22 years back, ran on an AMD K6-2 (Pentium 2) build
Rip brother thank you for the timeless music along with timeless memories we love u im deeply saddened to find out of your passing. Me and my twin played nfs hotpursuit every sat morning and would choose your songs and call it ours lol blessings for all eternity.
Great memories :)
Also 31:39 - played this track last year while driving through the blizzard in the mountain pass. Felt completely serene and immersed in the game. 😭
NFS 4 high stakes anf NFS 3 Hot Pursuit...... Best game soundtracks ever made
When music have soul !love it!
ART
Amazing music. Hear Callista in old NFS, then hear it again in Mass Effect years later. Priceless experience.
Thank you for a happy childhood and good taste in music :)
The Sounds of Early Need For Speed.
What a beautiful version of Callista you uploaded at 2:59:29 never heard of it, thanks!
And who said japanese games has the best music? Need for Speed IV - High Stakes, it's the best soundtrack in a game, ever!
I hardly think there is somebody that listens to Callista and didnt feel a rush of feelings through his mind and soul, from sadness, to astral voyage, to epic closure, to peaceful conclusion. It's a masterpiece!
Thank you for uploading this tribute, and thanks Saki Kaskas for all you left us, I wish music industry recognize you someday.
In peace, I wish you rest Saki Kaskas (aka Theodosius Kaskamanidis). Greets to Saki wherever he is, I wish he finally made it to the first place (like in N4S races).
I also never heard of it until years later, and that's a shame, it needs to be heard. Glad you got to experience it.
Sorry, man, but nah.
NFS 3 OST is at least 2 heads above the NFS 4 OST overall. And that's just a start. Then get the Ace Combat 3 OST and if you has a wide enough taste in music to appreciate different genres (AC3 has mostly electronic music), then try to repeat your words after you hear it (and in conjunction with the visuals on the screen AC3 OST was blowing the mind not less, than NFS3 OST). Try it, man! (again, if you can appreciate different electronic music)
Childhood memory, but still fashion until now.
whoever put this together, this is gold. thx!
If EA remasters NFS II, it will never be the same without Saki Kaskas.
4 years...
Thank you for creating the songs for my childhood games
Gotta say, Romulus 3 makes me feel nostalgic for something I never had the fortune of experiencing in my youth (didn't get into NFS until Hot Pursuit 2010). That's how you know his compositions kick ass.
Да они западают в душу и без них больше не можешь
They both built 90s videogame action techno.
Excellent compilation. Great work!
these are great and i never played these games. making a half-life map to this music
Saki left this world way to early...
May he rest in peace
This is Perfect!
35:00 saturday morning, no school... just pedal to the metal
excellent video compilation, thank you!
Who's One left finger Down.....saki IS a master...Still in his music..
Epic music. Perhaps the best electronic melodic-techno music in the world.
Thank you for making this
huge work. love it.
💙
estás si son rolitaa de la juventud ⭐☁️ gracias PS1 y Need for speed SE⭐
Awesome
3:47-on making racers (like me )damn crazy😂🤘
Paradigm Shifter! Omg my childhood.
Best of time... i was a teenager
Made my childhood. Didn't supposed that he left this world
awesome
1:33:38 thank you so much for this masterpiece. RIP Brother 😟
The music helps me with my fsx steam tunning modding and playing
not only the music in these old NFS games were superb, also the setting of the tracks were so cool. I remember i thought those satelite dishes were so cool for example, or driving under the big aqua tank for example. Nothing beats Quantum Singularity if you ask me.
You nailed it, I think it was Aquatica, with the cool water tanks and driving under them. Memorable setpiece.
Nice
Wonderful > you make my childhood >
Porsche 2000
awesome 😱👍👍
Beatiful romulus 3
geniuses, both of them!
im listening to their music, legends
2:18:17 - Troposphere sounds awesome. Listening on repeat mode.
its legend !!! .....
Min 31:39 will be forever the best Need for Speed theme ever made in videogame history
good music for coding
Wowow 😭
Suborbit NHL 2001
Paradigm Shifter
rip saki
great tribute to those guys, thank you for the upload
You should include the songs from the first NFS also and my life would be complete.
I have never even played the first NFS, so I don't know. I chose music that has impacted my life, and that's why I started with NFS 2.
I don't know if the first game has a classic, legendary soundtrack, because I never heard anyone talk about it, but hey, I'm sorry that I didn't include it.
The very first NFS installment has by far the best soundtrack of all NFS series. Have a look here: ruclips.net/video/gxnpfiTIPOk/видео.html
these weren't video game tracks, they belonged in the Smithsonian.... no other audio sound had ever been created like this and are still unique to this day. SONIC MASTERPIECES! plain and simple. I really loved the Tetrisphere soundtrack also, not sure of the artists tho.
Please make an extended version of Triton 🙏
Rom di Prisco Bring That Beat Back Atlantica Aquatica Empire City Country Road Route Adonf Durham Road
2:18:03 LEGEND.
I hope the will make remake of nfs3 i want to see map aquatica again
I still play nfs rivals and hot pursuit with these tracks
where to find Di Prisco - Atomik in good quality?
There are two options:
A: Search the "NHL 2000 soundtrack" videos, find which one suits you and record it using WASAPI in Audacity
B: Look for a Bitstream Dream discography, I think there was a HQ download link.
@@FightingForceSoulless I did so .. but no HQ.
all music in HQ you can found here: vk.com/romulusclub (this is official fan-club of Saki Kaskas and other artists), but not on RUclips.
