One of the original soundtrack concepts for StarCraft 1, by Glenn Stafford. Sounds a lot like Warcraft 2's soundtrack, doesn't it?

    Definitely some Warcraft II vibes in there, huh? In the age of chaos, three factions battled for dominance...

    Its a good thing they went back to the drawing board with this one and eventually made a masterpiece.
  • @vaniellys
    The part around 0:50 was reused for a Protoss theme, but it still sounds too much like Warcraft. I'm glad they went back to the drawing board.
  • @Zejgar
    This definitely carries the energy of them wanting to be free of the medieval fantasy shackles of Warcraft and to just play around with ideas beyond, while still utilizing the tools they had.

    "This is not Warcraft in space! It's much more sophisticated!" Also there was a nintendo 64 version of starcraft apparently, wtf.

    Hearing the samples that made it into the final game with some very and I mean Very warcraft2-esque DOOTdeDOOT style music is an experience. Thanks for sharing
  • @ThatVulcan
    Somebody please tell Glenn Stafford to take the part at 4:08 and just make it longer. That is liquid gold to my ears, sounds like a long lost WarCraft 2 song for the Alliance that I want to hear the end of. I would really like for the midi or a higher quality version of this song to get released sometime in the future.

    Strange, I feel like this is a Mix of a Warcraft II, Jet Force Gemini and the Protoss Themes from StarCraft. It sounds like the audo was recorded from an N64. Very Interesting!

    They could release somewhere in Warcraft material and I bet lots of people would think it’s a new soundtrack
  • @harm991
    2:13 many elements of the current Protoss soundtrack are engrained in here. I'm happy they completely stepped away from the Warcraft 2 'ships' soundtrack from the beginning.
