The Elder Scrolls: Arena (Original Game Soundtrack)

I was frustrated that I couldn’t find a version of the Arena soundtrack that was processed with the distinctive Adlib sound* as opposed to the version heard in the midi files, which are published and arranged wonderfully on several different videos (see Stefan Lindberg’s full soundtrack with the General Midi. Link below). I’ve recorded all music from DOS BOX using Audacity to get that lower resolution sound and organized them into a variety of tracks through Adobe Audition. *I’ve previously referred to “Adlib“ as “8-bit“ for lack of a better word to articulate the sound, but I have since been corrected. I’ve also seen this soundtrack classified as “16-bit“, although I think neither 8-bit or 16-bit is an accurate description. 1. Opening Titles - 0:00 2. Tharn’s Betrayal - 1:00 3. Where Dost Thou Hail - 2:10 4. A Vision Beyond - 5:25 5. Dungeon Crawling - 6:00 6. The Late Hours - 8:21 7. The Wandering Inn - 10:24 8. The First Seed - 11:53 9. Blacksmith - 14:36 10.

Arcane Arts - 32:34 18. Breaking And Entering - 35:50 19. Destination Reached - 37:04 20. You See A Goblin [Bonus Track] - 37:30 21. Game Over [Bonus Track] - 39:40 22. Objective Completed - 41:17 You may notice that some of the songs are missing that you might otherwise find in other Arena soundtracks, and that’s because those tracks are exclusive to the midi versions. I’ve also added two bonus tracks. “Game Over“ is just an extended version of “A Vision Beyond“ (because why not?), and “You See A Goblin“ is an ambient track I edited for fun under the premise of roaming a creepy dungeon. All tracks composed by Eric Heberling. Elder Scrolls: Arena (General Midi Version) by Stefan Lindberg:
