Blood Horizon
It's been a little while since we've heard new music from Mothergoat - but the Halo 3 Beta has inspired him, and this morning he released 'Blood Horizon', a hard-rockin' paean to the Master Chief's fight against the Covenant. 4.6 mb, mp3 format, available from his site or ours. (Both links, plus lyrics, are in the forum post.) And there's another one coming later this week... (Louis Wu 14:59:47 UTC)

Last Dance (of the Demon)
More goodness from Mothergoat - he released 'Last Dance (of the Demon)', a new piece he composed for a Halo CE map called Akathisia. He's not sure when the map's coming out, though, so he's releasing the song now. Almost 6 minutes long, 10.6 mb in MP3 format... great piece. Go listen! (We'll mirror it if there are any problems - just let us know.) (Louis Wu 14:02:01 UTC)

The Voiceless Prisoner
Mothergoat has created a new version of 'The Prisoner', the song he released yesterday with his new HaloCE maps. This version is missing the narration at the beginning, making it more suitable for Halo vids. (If you use it as such, read his post carefully for credit requirements.) He's linked a copy from his website... but we're gonna mirror it just in case (he got swamped yesterday due to overeager fans, I don't want that to happen again). MP3 format, 5 mb. Awesome.

Goatacular Map Pack
mothergoat's been around for quite some time, and has garnered community respect both for his mapmaking skills in HaloCE, and for his musical abilities (do a search in our news database for some of his Halo-related works) - he's back, with more of both. The Goatacular Map Pack includes 3 new maps, created with the help of some of the bigger names in the HaloCE community - he's posted descriptions, screenshots, walkthrough movies, and the new musical piece that accompanies them. Go grab the lot! (Louis Wu 15:00:16 UTC)

Death of Cortana
Mothergoat has just released what will be his last Halo song, for many reasons. We posted news about a teaser for it not too long ago... the full version of Death of Cortana is poignant, graceful, and beautiful. 3.8 mb mp3, hosted by us. Go listen. (And Mothergoat - good luck, in everything you do. Your music rocks!) (Louis Wu 14:45:34 UTC)

Now that's a RANGE.
Wow - two WILDLY different audio submissions today - actually, one came in this weekend, but I didn't get to it (sorry, guys!).
- Welcome to Halo was created by Kil and Lox - it's a Halo-themed version of the Welcome to Atlanta remix from Jermaine Dupri. Guns and rap - they just seem to go together, don't they? 3:21, 4.6 mb mp3
- Death of Cortana Sample is another Mothergoat creation - don't worry, there aren't any spoilers here (at least none that Mothergoat knows of); he came up with the idea after reading First Strike. A moving piano piece - I'm looking forward to the full version. 1:36 long, 1.4 mb mp3
Grab them both - or pick the style that appeals to you. (Louis Wu 13:33:19 UTC)

Windsor Medium - gone, but not forgotten
Mothergoat wrote to point out that Windsor Medium, the band he's been a part of for some time, has broken up - and the website (which has housed all his Halo-related creations for the past 8 months or so) is gone. We're unwilling to let this content simply disappear, so it's all been mirrored on b.org servers. If you search for any of his content (mp3's or maps) that we've mentioned in our news, you'll find local links for the actual files. Hope this helps some of you! (Our condolences go out to Mothergoat.) (Louis Wu 18:39:29 UTC)

Unyielding
Mothergoat has released Unyielding, his newest musical Halo-inspired creation. It starts quietly, majestically... but quickly explodes into heavy guitar-driven rock. 5:32 long, 5 mb big, hosted by Mothergoat himself (though if bandwidth gets tight, we'll certainly provide an alternative - it's quite good). Go listen. In Mothergoat's words, "Turn it up loud, close your eyes and let your mind wander in the Halo universe. I tried to provide a sountrack. :)" Update: Oops, there's a forum thread about this already, if you want to toss in your two cents. (Louis Wu 12:48:36 UTC)

A new HCE map - Transfer
Mothergoat (author of some cool Halo fan music) has been bitten by the mapmaking bug - and his first map is now available for download. It's called Transfer, and it's pretty bumpy. (Mothergoat calls it 'jump-heavy'.) Some nice touches, like the overarching longsword beams. There's a small promo movie (3.9 mb, WMP9) if you want to see what you're getting into. Grab it - it's 7.5 mb! (Louis Wu 15:42:04 UTC)

A Song to Kill By
Here's a Halo Fan Music submission unlike any other we've received... this song comes from Mothergoat, the composer of the Hail 117 Anthem, and while it's Halo-inspired, it's not as obviously based in Halo's themes; it's designed for fan music videos.
Seeing the Oddbrawl video made me realize the Hail 117 Anthem is more theatrical than it is good for constant firefights. So now I bring you "Repeater," a faster-moving overdrive fury with a good pinch of Halo. There's a lot of repetition on purpose. The tune was made as background music for use in fan videos. Anyone can freely use it by just giving me credit in the video.
It's a 3 mb mp3, 3:20 long, and as Mothergoat says, would probably work very nicely as a backdrop to Halo carnage. You can grab our local copy. (Louis Wu 11:23:57 UTC)

Hail to 117
Last week, we posted about a work-in-progress, a musical tribute to Halo (and to its music's creator, Marty O'Donnell), from Mothergoat. Last night, he uploaded the final product. 'Hail 117 Anthem' is just over 5 minutes long, 4.7 mb big, and beautiful. If you like the work - his band, Windsor Medium, has a website up. Update: Mothergoat has sent along this description of the piece:
The final tune is pretty theatrical. It's what I envision as the struggle of the final battle, escaping an exploding moon, defeating the Prophet of Regret and his last minions, then eventual sadness of the death of a close companion at the end of Halo 2 (my pure conjecture based on First Strike).(Louis Wu 11:45:07 UTC)

Hard-rockin' Fan Music
Mothergoat of Clan Boomstick, dropped off a pretty cool piece of music he put together. Here's what he says about it:
This isn't any sort of easy remix or anything, this tune was built with full instrumentation from the ground up. Matt Cox (me) of the band Windsor Medium wrote this new theme for Halo, inspired by Marty O'Donnell's favorite melody. I play every instrument heard. NOTE: This is just a 2-minute clip of the 5-minute song it will be soon. I will be adding piano and strings to the final version.
This is the kind of music I want to hear while searching, then bullet-dancing with Gold Elites...with a butt-load of explosions, too.
Go grab Hail to 117 (1.8mb, mp3) and look for that Gold Elite! (Louis Wu 01:22:41 UTC)
