Star Wars Dark Forces Theme (Orchestral Remake)

As promised, my virtual orchestra remake of the opening crawl and main theme from the 1995 LucasArts game Dark Forces. For those who don't know, Dark Forces is a classic video game (very close to my heart) where you play as the agent-for-hire Kyle Katarn as he and his co-pilot Jan Ors provide invaluable assistance to the Rebel Alliance in order to help defeat the evil Galactic Empire.

Originally written by Clint Bajakian (and John Williams for the Star Wars main title) and programmed in MS DOS Midi, I decided that it was time for a 21st century update.

The Star Wars main theme I was able to recreate from the original sheet music, the Dark Forces section I had to use a combination of the original Midi file and also my ear in order to try and interpret which instruments Clint might've had in mind when he originally wrote the piece (old midi instruments all sound like square waves!)

All orchestrations were done in Logic Pro using Spitfire Audio Abbey Road One, Spitfire BBC Symphony and Cinematic Studio Strings.

Arranged by David Tregoning.
