Portal 2 fandom:

I'm proud to finally share with you my symphonic arrangement of The Courtesy Call. This is the first movement of a larger project. I want to orchestrate the whole single player campaign soundtrack, to be performed live by a symphony orchestra.

I want to thank everyone involved in making this possible and the whole community for loving this game as much as I do.

Omg, What has He Done? (In-game mix)

The Portal 2 soundtrack is really interesting and you can’t appreciate it enough by just listening to Songs To Test By, as Mike Morasky used a different mix oriented for the listener to enjoy it by itself rather than the in-game mix that’s oriented on the gaming experience.

Yet Songs To Test By cuts for some reason parts of the soundtrack and that’s the case of “Omg, What has He Done?”.

The STTB version begins with the music you hear when you get the panorama of Aperture Science getting destroyed and GLaDOS exclaims “Oh my God, what has he done?”, next comes the music that plays when getting inside the Excursion Funnel during GLaDOS speech and ends with what plays when getting inside the Central AI Chamber before the map change (the last excerpt plays again at the beginning of the next map).

What is left from this mix is just a short section you hear while climbing in the Central AI Chamber beginning around 1:58 and the importance of this small section is that it contains the Wheatley motif at around 2:03, a motif composed of merely four notes that plays in key sections of the game related to Wheatley.

At least in a subconscious level, your mind already associates this short motif to Wheatley and evokes the mixed experiences the player had with the character just before the final battle with him.

#I completely forgot about this post lol #also Wheatley's theme is one of the first you hear in the game - after the Aperture jingle

this is still the funniest fucking thing i remember being 7 and almost throwing up watching this and now im 20 puking onto my rug
