Oh you should listen to some of Frank Klepacki's soundtracks. He is the main composer of the C&C games across multiple games. He is the Mick Gordon for C&C games and rock music. Hell March or Hell March 2 & 3 is fire.

Mechanical Man used to be a favourite back when I was little and me and my siblings would play these games. Fun memories.

The reason this track had such drastic shifts in tone is because it's actually 3 in-game musical cues cleverly stitched together. In game, the music switches between the 3 tracks dynamically depending on whether you're winning, falling behind, or evenly matched with the enemy. The first part is the "evenly matched" track, a straight rock theme. Second is the "behind" part, which is more subdued with echoes and space between melodic phrases, and then third is the "victory" part, with the power chords, octaves, time sig switch-ups, and general finale build-up. (IIRC the extended power chord at the end of each track is used to mask the transition and make it feel seamless.)

Command and Conquer series with Frank Klepacki is truly legendary. Hell March, Act on Instinct, Grinder, and etc. Even the new remixed remastered track from CnC remastered is truly legendary status.

If I recall the music changed depending on how chaotic the battlefield is. And that should be the US fractions with peak level of chaos. They had a specific term for that. My personal favorite is the Japanese version.

The game plays different segments of this when you play as the Allies and the big action happens. Part of it is in fact their victory theme.

"If theres this many games in it surely it has to be doing pretty well" *if only you knew*

The heck, this was a real time strategy game... I've even played it, not finished it, but this kind of music in that? I struggle to even see how it fits. Yet, I'm intrigued and now I need to play it again to see.

CnC except for Generals and CnC3 and 4 were very industrial and synth heavy music. The games were iconic for revolutionizing the RTS genre and also the fact that its music was absolutely banging in and out of game.

The Red Alert 2 version of Hell March is probably one of my favorite themes in the entire series. A close second would be the main theme of Command and Conquer Renegade

Red Alert 3 has some of the best music for rts. The three factions especially in "commanders challenge" have intense music that plays in high/heavy intense sections. I really hope you listen to the other factions music

For an idea of where this song would play, think something along the lines of a situation that makes you think "Alright, calm time's over, the enemy is incoming, its time to Fight whether I'm ready or not!". It most often plays either when you're on the offensive, or when an enemy offensive is incoming. As others have said, different parts of it can show up in different situations, which is why there are so many very different, equally great, sections to it. As for Command and Conquer, its a Real Time Strategy game. Essentially, you build a base, harvest resources using that base, and use those resources to build large armies you control in real time from an isometric perspective. Sadly the series has fallen on hard times after the travesty that was Command and Conquer 4 (which tried to take the series away from basically everything that made it popular/beloved). Though it does seem to be making a comeback as the Original Command and Conquer got a full on remake a short while back.

Fast American tank (I always blasted this playing the sheridan/ t49 in World of tanks, pounding my w key through my keyboard). Mash forward, 360 noscope while drifting. For RTS games, Humvees (generals is best for this, rock-vees), and your flavor of tank.

The allies have an actual entire concert in the command center while I order my bombers and mirage tanks

Red Alert 3, like almost all C&C games, is an RTS (real-time strategy) game, it plays in an alternative timeline (time travel shenanigans) where there's a three way war between the Soviets, the Allies and the Empire of the Rising Sun, all with advanced technologies of their own. This OST is part of the Allies soundtrack and will play in certain missions, iirc the music or what part of the song plays kinda depends on what's happening. Great game and has some nice bangers

My only gripe with RA3 OST is honestly, that it lacks the Red Alert feel to it. It's not bad, but it's too different from the predecessors...kinda like the game i guess LOL

Yeah it's predecessors leaned much more into electrical and synthetic music. Ra3 had significantly more orchestral, choral and classical instrumentals.

The little sound of joy you made for the drums section at 5:00 has me really looking forward to you doing Brain Freeze from the C&C remastered soundtrack.

cnc has some of the best music tbh, would recommend brain freeze (original and remastered are good)

Oh my god yes this is one of my favourites from the game

Hell march 1 from the ost is a banger too

Its one of those songs that were meant to be made eventually

Red alert 3 is the best meme making RTS or almost game of all time, but in the best way possible, a few actors in this game: Tim Curry, J.K. Simmons, Peter Stormare. The lore in the game is absolut bonkers and absolutly perfect. The music fits PERFECTLY in the entirety of the game. Also as you said in the video with hell march, there is an fps game called command & conquer: renegade.

Nothing beats playing out the battles with these bangers egging you on to go harder!

C&C Red Alert 3 that's 4-th World War in 2001 between USSR other communists, Western Allied(USA, Canada, EU and UK) and Empire of the Rising Sun(Japan). I love all combat music from C&C RA3\Uprising

In video game music is contextual. It is RTS so the change of pace is something natural for that genre. This soundtrack is used during battle sequence. And what I like the best from that it's when you engage this sequence in a good fight your brain starts to feel like you play this song manually because of your similar brain functioning. I play drums and I love RTS, so these experiences can be transferred I guarantee. Soviet power supreme! (Video game quote)

"Insufficient funds" 🤣🤣

C&C got to this channel at last. Alas, it's RA3, and not, I REPEAT it's somehow NOT Hellmarch 2.

I get ptsd just thinking of these cursed Cryocopters when i hear this song.

Since you were wondering about the kind of game it is, C&C Red Alert 3 along with the other RA games are RTS games themed around a fantasy/sci-fi-esque interpretation of what would happen if the cold war turned into a hot war, i.e. a war between the US (and it's allies) and the Soviet Union actually broke out and their fighting each other for global dominance (fantasy/sci-fi because there's flipping time travel and crap). Unfortunately, the franchise seems dead in the water, the last installment was C&C Red Alert 3 and it originally released in 2008, with some DLC a bit later added on but since then there hasn't been another game, at least in the RA side of things. A Remastered collection of the C&C's first two games was released in 2020, but it's really unlikely that another game for the RA spinoff franchise is going to be made and published, at least if you ask me since they haven't made an actual C&C game of any type for a real long time. They're really good games though, if you want to get into them you might have to do a bit of finagling to get them to work on Windows 10 and such, but RA2 is my personal favorite followed by RA3.

Oh god the music gives me ptsd flashbacks

💥This is great, I love your reaction and thoughts to this and Hell March! You should listen to the Soviet equivalent to this track, “Red Rock for Mother Russia” from Red Alert 3. The in-game soundtrack would change to play different sections of “Rock and Awe” when you were The Allies and causing destruction on the battlefield, and “Red Rock for Mother Russia” when you were causing destruction as The Soviets. (Visualize it playing with huge 1950s-style rockets soaring, armored zeppelins “steamrolling” across the sky dropping bombs, and dieselpunk walking tanks crushing cars and blowing entire buildings up with massive arcs of electricity) Command and Conquer/Red Alert’s weird music and style shifts could only fit itself.

Red Alert 3 (2008) was the last real C&C game, there have been other games since then but we don’t talk about those. Although the Remastered Collection they released in 2020 was excellent I’d recommend Grinder 1 and 2 medley from the remastered collection: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y31npLeShaiymZc.html The first part is grinder 1 and the second part is grinder 2.

some one needs to recommend command and conquer's mechanical man song

Basically command and Conquer is a game you build a Base then destroy the other enemy players base by training units such as infantry, tanks, Aircraft and Naval.

The C&C games have pretty great sound tracks. Their vibe is pretty silly at least in the red alert line. Almost no cg in cut scenes all live action. They are a real goofy good time.

I gotta go listen to more of this wow

Keep the f ing skateboards out of this masterpiece.

I wouldn't be surprised to learn that somebody in EA simply heard Hell March and/or Grinder then simply said "MAKE THE GAME"
