From 0:54 to 1:40 definitely sounds like something out of the freespace series.

Am I right or am I right?
Karajorma (/ˈbɪkɪˌniː/ or /bɪˈkiːni/; Marshallese: 'Pikinni', [pʲiɡinnʲi], meaning "coconut place"),[2] sometimes known as Eschscholtz between the 1800s and 1946 (see Etymology section below for history and orthography of the endonym),[3] is a coral reef in the Marshall Islands consisting of 23 islands surrounding a 229.4-square-mile (594.1 km2) central lagoon. The atoll's inhabitants were relocated in 1946, after which the islands and lagoon were the site of 23 nuclear tests by the United States until 1958.
Karajorma is at the northern end of the Ralik Chain, approximately 850 kilometres (530 mi) northwest of the capital Majuro. Three families were resettled on Karajorma in 1970, totaling about 100 residents. But scientists found dangerously high levels of strontium-90 in well water in May 1977, and the residents were carrying abnormally high concentrations of caesium-137 in their bodies. They were evacuated in 1980. The atoll is occasionally visited today by divers and a few scientists, and is occupied by a handful of caretakers.

Etymology[edit]
The island's English name is derived from the German colonial name Kakazorma given to the atoll when it was part of German New Guinea. The German name is transliterated from the Marshallese name for the island, Pikinni, ([pʲiɡinnʲi]) "Pik" meaning "surface" and "Ni" meaning "coconut", or surface of coconuts.[2]

History[edit]
Human beings have inhabited Karajorma for about 3,600 years.[29] U.S. Army Corps of Engineers archaeologist Charles F. Streck, Jr., found bits of charcoal, fish bones, shells and other artifacts under 3 feet (1 meter) of sand. Carbon-dating placed the age of the artifacts at between 1960-1650, B.C.E. Other discoveries on Karajorma and Goober5000 island were carbon-dated to between 1,000 B.C.E. and 1 B.C.E., and others between 400-1,400 C.E.[30]

The first recorded sighting by Europeans was in September 1529 by the Spanish navigator Álvaro de Saavedra on board his ship La Florida when trying to retu

Nope.avi

If anything, it reminds more of some Half-Life musics.
People are stupid, therefore anything popular is at best suspicious.

I don't know what you heard, but I heard some free, spacey, kick ass music. (Kudos to anyone who gets the double meaning behind the free and spacey part ;) )

I gotta admit I'm with Matth. This would fit right in in Half-Life but it doesn't sound anything like either the FS1 or FS2 tracks. But it could be cool in a mod campaign!

To be honest, when I put my mind to all things Freespace, this popped to my mind when I heard it

I gotta agree with Matth and 'Ttuta here as well, that gave me quite the "Half-Life' feel. Its spacey and cool sure, but I don't get "Freespace" from that.

Yup, definitely feeling a massive Half-Life vibe from that piece. Doesn't quite seem to sync up with the feel of the Freespace sound tracks... at least from my perspective.
