Have you guys downloaded the fight club soundtrack? Its by the dust brothers i believe, they are both djs, and they obviously know about sampling. I short, of course its the song from the zerg briefing room :D

Recycled Sound effects if you guys didnt know all come from the company "Sound Ideas" when I got some of their sound packs from the pirate bay several years ago, like 99% of the sound effects starcraft uses were recorded by Sound Ideas.

The siege tank sounds for example were actually recorded in 1984 as well as most major hollywood films all used sounds that were recorded and sold on 1984.

But this short Zerg track that was in Fight Club is different because of how simple the monophonic melody is.

Fight Club soundtrack was made by The Dust Brothers, they sample a lot of stuff. I wouldn't put it past them to sample a videogame.

For anyone interested in this, check out the Wilhelm scream, it's one of the most used sound-effects and a private joke among sound engineers.

thats possible, but the fight club one compared to the Starcraft one makes the Starcraft one sound almost... 8-bit

They both probably use the same MIDI sheet, but are produced with different virtual instruments.

Yes indeed. For years I was sure I kept hearing that sound in almost every movie.

Until I found out there was even a name to that sound.

Used in SO many movies it is crazy.

Also there are 2 sounds effect from Doom used in a lot of movies as well.

There are a shit tonne of game sounds in movies and television. I know I've heard the Doom2 door opening sound in places before as well.

My cousin said he heard Starcraft music in the movie Fight Club. The way he said it made me think that they had a scene or something where they really made it obvious that Starcraft would make a cameo or something. But then I realized that it can only be heard if you really listen to it closely... I don't know how my cousin Pawel noticed this on account of how short and suddle it is.

I can't tell you how many things use the same sound as when a Protoss building is started in BW.

I forgot what sound it was specifically but one of the grenade/tank explosion sounds from the Red Alert/C&C series I also hear a lot, unsure what it was again.

I'm pretty sure that this thread has been done before, and there are a lot of reused sound effects around StarCraft in general;

e.g. the howie roar/scream that the academy makes

I'm sure most of you will recognize 2:13

Reminds me of one of Daft Punk's songs more than a probe :3

Anyone can confirm? But maybe it's just us Starcraft people, we hear things that we are sure are from starcraft. I am sure Ive seen quite a few Kerrigan's in South Beach recently.
