Originally from the 2000 Nintendo 64 game Battlezone: Rise of the Black Dogs

This track was created as part of the Heracles Brigade's Rise of the Black Dogs Decompilation Project.

Original track memory index: 0x06
NSDF05: Escape from Mars
NSDF10: Bring it Home
NSDF17: The Ultimate Quake
CCA08: Punishing the Black Dogs
BD05: The Last Stand
BD10: Prepare to Evacuate

The aim of this project is not to produce a modern, up-to-date recreation of the game's original soundtrack, but rather one that meshes well with the soundtracks of the earlier games "Battlezone" and "Battlezone: The Red Odyssey". As PC games these were not affected by the cartridge size issues of the Nintendo 64 and therefore have soundtracks of much higher fidelity, while still retaining that very distinct late-90s video game soundtrack feel. That is what these tracks exist to capture.
