I'm speaking of the BCM MP3, bcm_prophet.mp3 BC:M / The Prophet. What is the narrator saying at the times from 1:25 to 1:50?

It sounds like,

The land of ???? place of technological wonder ???? the people ???? general beauty and energy ???? governed by the peaceful oversight ???? perfect existenece ???? the Earth ???? charismatic soul ???? until the fateful day ???? discovered ????

As you can see, there's a lot I'm missing. Someone care to help fill it in?

And out of curiosity, whose voice is that? SC's? Someone else?

What song? There's a song in BCM?

Just kidding, I know what you are talking about, but the voice is kinda hard to hear plus I am focusing on the game to much to actually pay attention to what someone is saying.

The land of ---. The place of technological wonder. The people are surrounded by a general beauty and energy --- governed by the peaceful oversight each ex--- the other in a perfect existenece. The Earth is a kind and charismatic soul. Until the the fateful day that the cr---[ystal?] discovered ----

Now my question is who composed the music and where can I get more?

besides bcm where can i get some more the music is great!

Well, SC had uploaded the MP3's for BCM a while back. I think I have a complete collection at work, but not here at home, sadly. And no facilities to upload them to either. Maybe some other kind soul around here could assist you, JJ?

Once again, I'll probably mirror some of the MP3s from the demo on my site. Life's been a pain lately, haven't gotten site work done for over a week, at least. Next update, you'll see the Fleet section of my newbie guide complete, and more downloads!

Baloogan, your link to the BC song doesn't work, so I had to do this with my own file on my computer. (Eek, right? Play, stop, pause, play, rewind, play, pause, stop, etc.)

---

I'll post my take on the lyrics (it's derrived from Baloogan's):


Key

() - Means I'm pretty sure. 75-100% sure.

[] - Means that's what I think I hear. 50% sure.

{} - Means I'm not sure. Sounds something like this. Probably not. 25% sure.

... - Indistinguishable spaces once again.


Lyrics

1:21 ---Fade into Narrarative---

1:22 The land of [entropy] (see footnote a).

1:25 The place of technological wonder.

1:27 The people are surrounded by...[channeling] {kinetic} (see footnote b) energy...

1:31 The people are governed by a peaceful oversight.

1:34 Each {seeks/sees}...(the other in perfect existance).

1:38 The earth is a kind and [charismatic] [soul].

1:42 Until the fateful day the {crystal} (see footnote c) discovery follows.....

1:47 ---Fade back into Music---


Footnotes

a. I say it sounds like "entropy", but there sounds like a "K" sound on the end... Entr--p-k, is what is easy to distinguish.

b. It echoes like mad, and it's loud! I think there's a voice behind the echoing "channel/channeling..." sound, can't tell. (Update: I doubt there's a sound back there. I think I can make out the word kinetic along with channel, though. "channeling kinetic energy" is the best guess; changes above reflect this.)

c. Again, one of those evil echoing "C" words like footnote A. Sounds like cr, cru-, or something. Cristian, or Crystal (which I said above). I like the latter more. It says "crystal" first, and then echoes with something that sounds like "crisco". Thanks to my brother for his opinion on this one.


There you go. My best guess. I have no programs that can slow down/modify the song, but if I did it'd be easier. Like I said, Baloogan's link is down, so I had to do this by my own ear, and rewinding WinAmp over and over.

at 0.1 % of the normal speed you can tell it says: the land of technogolical worship

, it sounds like wonder at normal speed, the s is really hard to get

Sorry about the link

up now

In your slower version I still hear "wonder". And you sacraficed a ton of quality in slowing it down. It's in mono (that one line you didn't get at 1:31 was really quiet, played on the left side only), and it's only in 64k 22050Hz. Finally, I don't think I needed to stretch that little 30 seconds to 2:03! It's just as hard to make out a word that's super stretched to 5 seconds long.

Anyway, nice site you've got there.

This is relaed to the game, it's about the lyrics in the game, hence "Did anyone catch the lyrics".

hehehe, there not really meaningful lyrics anyway.........it's probably not meant to be thought provoking, but rather just a cool additiont to the song!!

Just getting in my input, it sounds a lot more like "The people are governed by the peaceful overseers" in that one part.

Also, it sounds much more like "each sees in the other a perfect existence" (which isn't all that bad grammar, but it isn't common usage anymore ).

In other words, the overseers see each other as perfect. That's my interpretation, anyhoo.
