Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator (1999) (FULL SOUNDTRACK) by Martin O'Donnell @expilectakunai

Uploaded April 2022 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

One of Martin O'Donnell's first video game scores, this is his score to Valkyrie Studios' RPG "Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator". It was originally released in 1999 for Windows; since then, it has been re-released via GOG.com for Windows in 2009, for MacOS in 2013, and for Linux in 2017.
Martin O'Donnell has described the work for Septerra Core as his most difficult assignment he's ever done; during the production of the game, the studio of his production company, TotalAudio, burned to the ground and O'Donnell had to be hoisted through a window in order to save some 20 hours of recordings. I thought I'd upload this one as this is one of Marty's most unknown of video game scores he's done.

Each movement expresses an aspect of our human connection with the natural world and journeys through a rushing river, a peaceful lakefront, and a wind storm in the Western Sierra mountains. COMPOSER: Jake Runestad POETS: Henry David Thoreau, Wendell Berry, John Muir CONDUCTOR: Craig Hella Johnson CHOIR: Conspirare PIANO: Michael Jones TRACKLIST: 0:00 - I. Reflections 7:15 - II. The Peace of Wild Things 12:32 - III. Come to the Woods TEXTS: I. Reflections (Henry David Thoreau) We live but a fraction of our life. We do not fill all our pores with our blood; we do not inspire and expire fully and entirely enough, so that the wave of each inspiration shall break on our farthest shores, rolling ’til it meets the sand which bounds us, and the sound of the surf comes back [to us]. Why do we not let on the flood, raise the gates, and set all our wheels in motion? There is the calmness of the lake when there is not a breath of wind; so it is with us. Sometimes we are clarified and calmed as we never were before. We become like a still lake of purest crystal and without an effort our depths are revealed to ourselves. All the world goes by us and is reflected in our deeps. Such clarity! Obtained by such pure means! By simple living, by honesty of purpose. To be calm, to be serene! II. The Peace of Wild Things (Wendell Berry) When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be, I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds. I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief. I come into the presence of still water. And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light. For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free. III. Come to the Woods (John Muir) Another glorious day, the air as delicious to the lungs as nectar to the tongue. The day was full of sparkling sunshine, and at the same time enlivened with one of the most bracing wind storms. The mountain winds bless the forests with love. They touch every tree, not one is forgotten. When the storm began to sound, I pushed out into the woods to enjoy it. I should climb one of the trees for a wider look. The sounds of the storm were glorious with wild exuberance of light and motion. Bending and swirling backward and forward, round and round, in this wild sea of pines. The storm-tones died away, and turning toward the east, I beheld the trees, hushed and tranquil. The setting sun filled them with amber light, and seemed to say, “Come to the woods, for here is rest.” Please be aware that all of the music (and images) featured in this video belong to their respective owners, and I or this channel does not claim any right over them.
