Lately there had been a request for SS2 music and I noticed that some good songs are either hard to find or not available at all. So I will try to collect them here.
Some explanation first: If you have digged through the CRF archives of SS2 before (just associate the CRF-extension with your favourite unpacker) you might have noticed that there are no complete songs but fragments which get faded into one another depending on where you go in the game.
This leads to several forms of SS2 music:
- Level-Mixes try to recreate the music experienced when playing the game as faithfully as possible by putting together the fragments.
- Fan-Remixes are based on the level music or own music and often work with speech samples from the game and/or sounds, melodies.
- Humour-Mixes are mostly speech oriented.
Here you will find mostly Fan-Remixes unless noted otherwise. It will be by no means an exhaustive list of SS2 music. For more songs please follow these links:
- SS2 Official Soundtrack
- The SShock2.com Multimedia Database: Unedited Game Music Files, Level Mixes by Eric Brosius (the sound producer of SS2), Fan-Remixes
- Peter Kofler's Music from System Shock site: Peter's Level-Mixes (and SS1 music files)
- Chicajo.com: SS1 Mixes only

One of my favourites tunes comes with Dhaelis' own catchy music and many samples. I think he made it in January 2001.
It had been up for a long time at the TTLG music page where musicians from TTLG had stored some fine music, hosted by Gray and Daxim. Unfortunately this site is no more but anyway here's the song by Dhaelis aka Apoplexia: The Way Out

This pushing Fan-Remix is by Past Recall, made in 2003. It was done with the German version of SS2 and features some of the best timed sound engineering there is in SS2 fan music, plus a great beat.
English speakers who have played the Redux GerMany Conversion may recognize some of the samples.
Quote by Past Recall - Lauf:
SHODAN: Denke daran, dass mein Wille dich hierher geleitet hat, mein Wille verlieh dir die Cyberimplantate, das einzig Schöne in diesem Fleisch, das du als Deinen Körper bezeichnest. Wenn dir dein Körper etwas wert ist, wirst du meinen Anweisungen folgen.
Ich bin SHODAN.
Hybrid: Beeil dich, lauf!
Xerxes: Hier spricht Xerxes. Melden Sie Ihrem unmittelbaren Vorgesetzten bitte alle illegalen Datenbankzugriffe. Denken Sie daran: Jeder ist für einen ordentlichen Betrieb mitverantwortlich.
Bot: Sekundärsensoren haben etwas entdeckt, Xerxes!
Xerxes, Anomalie entdeckt!
(Chorus)
SHODAN: Ich bin SHODAN.
Hybrid: Beeil dich, lauf!
Dein Lied ist nicht unseres.
Protocol droid: Befinden Sie sich im gewünschten Betriebszustand?
Hallo?
Benötigen Sie eine Aufladung?
Hallo?
Tut mir leid! Aber ich kann nicht sehen, wo Sie sind.
Oh, ich habe einen Kunden vertrieben. Wahrscheinlich werde ich degradiert.
(Chorus)
Xerxes: Hier spricht Xerxes. Um nullzweihundert wird Protokolleinheit T892/2 im Freizeitbereich von Deck fünf eine Dichterlesung veranstalten.
Bot: Sekundärsensoren haben etwas entdeckt, Xerxes!
Xerxes: Sicherheitseinheiten zu Sektor D06.
Assassin: (incomprehensible original gibberish)
Janice Polito: Machen Sie schneller! Sie haben ja keine Ahnung, was auf dem Spiel steht.
(Chorus with slight variation)
Hybrid: Einer kann der Masse nicht entkommen.
Protocol droid: Tss, tss, die Leute sind so schüchtern. Umdihum .... umdihumdihumdihum ...

Two very unusal tracks by Bart Klepka.#3
Individuality (Fear mix) relies on it's own nice shuffling beat and a few SS2 samples.
Shodan (Hacked Mix) starts out with the medsci breakbeats, then takes off for it's own speedy lego block sound.
Klepka's site has been down for a while now, so I put up these songs here.

These are three songs I made myself with SS2-samples.#4
All have been discussed on TTLG at the time of their release: Killing Kenny, Move it Tommy!, Von Braun Delta Inducer V8
"Killing Kenny" is a humour mix based on a well known country song.
Move it Tommy!
This was the most popular of the three back then. It tells the story of the crew members Tommy Suarez and Rebecca Siddons by their own logs.

Von Braun Delta Inducer V8
This is a soother, a sort of ambient track that uses ultralow frequencies mixed with the humming of the spaceship Von Braun to put you to sleep. Put on some good headphones if available.

For more sleepy ambient tracks also listen to these webradios: Cryosleep Radio, Sleepbot Radio, Drone Zone, Mixing of particulate solids.
