Favorite neighborhood music?

[Deuce Spade]

When CoH was dead, I would search every few months for a link to the music for The Crescent in Brickstown, not because of any fond memories in the location, but rather because I just like the tune.  While leveling, I still make a mini-game out of cutting the corner between Mashu Bridge and the Crescent when leaving the tram to try to make the neighborhood music play.

 

Does anyone else have a favorite?

 

P.S. the one that used to bug me most was the Hendrix-inspired riff for Blyde Square in Steel Canyon.  The timing of the bass line is off enough I think the artist may have used the wrong setting on quantize.

[Chrono-Bot]

Haha, I was going to say the riff for Blyde Square because I love getting my own guitar solo. 

 

Actually my favourite is probably that neat music in Croatoa. I'm not sure how to describe it. It feels like bubbles popping.

RWZ near the UFO. That music is sick and gets me pumped up to beat up some ayys. I also like the AP music near there Atlas statue. It just feels so heroic.

Yeah, that music hooked me when I first loaded into the game.  It's just about perfect.

I use Founder's Falls and Steel Canyon as ringtones on my phone.

The Saint Martial "Jackpot" neighborhood music has been on my favorite 'Background Noise' playlist for years.

Still gotta say that Fort Blood and J13_Loop have special places in my mass of tentacles.

Where does one find all the CoX music files in MP3 format? Or if not all the music files, then at least some of them. The HC Wiki entry titled "Music" mentions that a Titan forum member made the MP3 files available as a downloadable archive, but I don't know. I also seem to recall that the game's music was on SoundCloud but I cannot seem to find it.

I like the idea of using some of the game music as a ringtone, so any help will be much appreciated.

My personal favorites.

 

Devil's Coat Tails (Cap)

The Tangle/Sector 4 (Grandville/RV)

Sector 5 (RV)

Ground Zero (Bloody Bay, and the original CoV install music)

Four Gables (Imperial City)

Lambda Sector (Neutropolis)

The Storm Palace (Storm Palace)

The Cascades (Eden)

New Overbrook (Faultline)

@Icono04, I don't know if any complete collections of the music if MP3 format exist, but if you'd like, here's an online OGG-to-MP3 converter that you could use to compile such a collection:  https://cloudconvert.com/ogg-to-mp3

The old Rikti Crash Site had a great guitar shred that I loved hearing back in the day.

I grabbed the .ogg music file from Music - Paragon Wiki Archive and used an online .ogg to mp3 converter I found via Google  (several sites come up so you can just pick one).

I love the track for Heartbreak Ridge in RWZ.  Takes me back to my ultra-spooky girl days.  

Walking through random cemetery grounds late at night with the fog rolling in...

Good times :D

[MHertz]

Funny, I like the Blyde Square music too. When it plays. Often, the Copper District music overrides it.

 

I also like ... I believe it's Steel Pier in IP.

[Erratic1]

I should have been more specific since the zones do have multiple musics. The two I use as ringtones are:

 

Steel Canyon - Copper District

Founder's Falls - Williams Square

[carroto]

Talos - New Corinth

[DoctorDitko]

I had something in my eye the first time I logged into HC and heard the Atlas music.

 

But the first time I heard the Steel Canyon Blyde Square music again? Tear gas, must have been.

This totally this!

And then hearing Croatoa and then Williams Square and ...
