[edit] Music Excerpt: Risk, Relief, and Victory

After comparing the preview on the DirectSong website and the actual track ingame, I believe that the excerpt is wrong. The actual "Risk, Relief and Victory" track begins faster and is more tense.

What you here on DirectSong is just an excerpt of a more dynamic part of the song. "Risk Relief and Victory" is a 6:14 song, that contains several major themes of the game's music. I have double checked, just to make sure, and it is correct. What you here on direct song is an excerpt from 3:30 to 5:20.
For the sake of proof, I have made the file temporarily available here:

Ah. It seems you're correct. Sorry about that mistake. The version I've got here seems to split the track into several different pieces.

What you probably have is the music extracted strait from the game files. If you like the music, I recommend you download the album, as there is much more content, and actual pieces, rather than just excerpts. It's not too hard to find via BT, but I'd recommend getting it from DirectMusic.com. It's a measly 10 bucks, and DRM isn't that hard to cleanly remove nowadays (i.e., no transcoding ).
