You MADE my day with these mp3s!!! When I was about 7-8, I played Ecco jr because it was so relaxing and I loved the music–haven’t been able to find the music anywhere, and it is sooo nostalgic. I am also a big fan of the score to Ecco Tides of Time–the main theme is gorgeous. So, I’m very pleased that I found this site.
GREAT GREAT GREAT !!!!
Can you compress ALL them to download?
I’m afraid these are about as small as they are going to get without quality suffering. Are they too big to download?
I think Flicky was refering to a zip file of a single sountrack. So like you can download the entire soundtrack in one go, or the single tracks if you only want one or two.
Hm, not especially convenient and they’ll be about the same size (or bigger) in an archive.
Dudes! The site is rather awesome
You’ve got roms betas etc.
So why you didn’t placed music in VGM files?? It’s like 2Mb of 3l Genesis soundtracks in the best quality it can be.
It can be always found on
http://project2612.org/search.php?query=ecco&field=game&sort=game&order=asc&submit=Search
Don’t forget to download some plugins for your media player!..
VGM is nice and small, but it doesn’t accurately reproduce the audio identical to the real hardware. So, the music on this site is recorded from actual Genesis/MegaDrive hardware. I think I will add the VGMs though for users with less bandwidth– thanks for the idea!
This is pretty darn unbelievable! You’ve done an awesome job on this site, simply amazing! I never thought I’d be able to find these though I still think Ecco 1 & 2 are among the greatest games ever made. Thanx man!
I’ve had Ecco songs getting stuck in my head every once in a blue moon and having them never leave for weeks. Eventually they would go away and I would spend a long time searching for an mp3. I have FINALLY found them!
You made me 110% happier than I was a few minutes ago sir.
iv always liked the music from The Tides Of Time and as a kid i used to just turn on my sega genesis just to listen to the main title song of the tides of time. now i have it on my ipod along with other tides of time soundtracks thanks to this website!
what happened to the rest of this page. it had extra music that sounded so cool. if you go to youtube and go to ecco the dolphin open ocean and go to the one by ininja32 saying “sounds like a hero” thats one of them. i’d be pleased if someone would tell me or put it back on this page. thank you
Thank.You.So.Much.Epicenter.
PS sorry for my immature rants before now, I’ve always been that way.
The One: Sorry about the comments not showing up, the site doesn’t show posts from “new” users until they’re allowed by an admin. You should be fine now.
As far as the music itself, Epicenter has a lot of the missing content, it’s just not uploaded right now. Hang tight; he’ll start working on the site again once his living situation is settled.
Okay, I’ll wait
PS Ecco 1’s song#1 makes me have nghtmare and nearly soil my pants everytime I hear it.
I’m always all O_o or X_x or !_! when I hear it…
(Thats why I hate the Ecco2 Alpha O_o)
Soetimes I love Ecco1 song # 1 (Refering to it by name makes me wanna puke) but thats day time, I hate it when its dark out
PS why can’t I edit my posts?
Though these are nice, I’ve been looking for something a little bit higher in quality. So I decided to rip the songs from the game using KegaFusion’s WAV logging feature. While the WAV’s are too large, the MP3’s are a fiarly small filesize that are higher quality than what’s presented here. If you’d be interested in using them then they’re yours, just say the word.
I can’t believe I found your site with ALL the music on it! Since I was a young lad at 7 I loved Ecco 1’s main title track! It has been in my head for 16 odd years since I last heard it, and it sounds as good as ever, thanks for putting my mind at ease… Rock on Dark Sea
Hey Epicenter- could you make a zip file of all these mp3’s? It would be cool to download them all at one time.
